In this episode, Stuart delves into the essential topic of how much superannuation you need for a comfortable retirement. Drawing on a recent discussion with James Kirby from The Australian newspaper, Stuart explores the complexities of retirement planning, including how long your retirement might last and the shortcomings of traditional super calculators. He emphasises the importance of a perpetual portfolio, where your investment returns exceed your living expenses, ensuring your capital remains intact.
Stuart breaks down two key scenarios: relying solely on super and combining super with property investments. He explains how each approach can provide financial security and highlights the critical factors to consider, such as initial investment base and asset allocation. With practical advice and real-world examples, Stuart offers listeners a comprehensive guide to planning for a financially secure retirement, helping you decide whether a perpetual portfolio or a mix of super and property is right for you. Tune in to learn how to achieve a sustainable retirement plan that safeguards against longevity risk and ensures peace of mind for the future.
