Superannuation for people over 40

Superannuation 2020 is for people over 40 who want to enjoy a dignified retirement.

People like you who want to be able to maintain their current lifestyle as long as they are physically able.

Your retirement is likely to be at least 25 years - more if you are a woman.

But if you are relying on the usual superannuation funding options to see you through your old age, you are in for a big disappointment.

Even with the most optimistic of forecasts, your superannuation will run out BEFORE you do.

And that is before factoring in things like the impact of oil prices and global warming!

Some say the writing is on the wall - 2008 is likely to be the worst year for rates of return on superannuation funds ever. (While this is disconcerting, don't panic. Superannuation is a long term investment.)

What is more worrying though is that the Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees (AIST) found that more than 30% of Australians care very little - if at all - about their superannuation funds.

And another 52% know only a little about superannuation funds!

This "zero care" situation reduces the importance of superannuation at a political level.

When super does get adjusted so that it is more than a "minimum wage", it is VERY likely that it will be "too little, too late" for the vast majority of Australians.

We want you to avoid being someone who waits until there is too little too late - i.e. when you can do nothing about it.

We want you to act now and at the very least consider your financial future once you retire...

... to move beyond relying on government superannuation with rules that keep on changing

... to provide you and your spouse with at least some financial freedom in your old age.

We know you are probably aware of various investment ideas to help you top up your superannuation.

But for your own sake, we ask that you take the time to investigate what we believe is currently the best way for you to set yourself up financially for your retirement years. 

Just looking at the menu options on this web page it is obvious that we believe investing in residential real estate in Brisbane is the way to go.

But we won't be swamping you with a bunch of high pressure selling - we do not sell real estate :-)

Instead, if you let us, we will put you in touch with someone who we trust to provide you with the right advice.

Someone with a proven track record.

Someone with a quiet integrity who also cares about you enjoying your retirement.
