Financial advice for seniors
Financial advice for seniors
As a member of the generation 55 and older, you may feel as if you are constantly juggling your own financial needs as well as those of your parents and children. In this situation, it’s easy to put your own needs, both now and in the future, on the back burner as you try to help your loved ones. While it’s easy to overlook minor details, they can quickly add up to a major financial headache down the road.
Why financial advice important for seniors?
In our experience assisting people like you, those over the age of 55 frequently face the following financial challenges:
- Using their retirement funds to support elderly parents or struggling children
- They have not budgeted for any potential future healthcare costs.
- They don't know how much money they'll need to live their desired retirement lifestyle.
- Without looking at the numbers, they believe they have it figured out.
- Investing in only one type of investment, making them vulnerable to market crashes
- Working longer than expected to save for a longer retirement
- They are reliant on their partner's retirement plan to secure their financial future.
- Feeling overwhelmed by the amount of planning required and failing to act as a result
- Planning for their current lifestyle rather than the one they hope to have in retirement
- Relying solely on Centrelink for retirement funding
