Transition to retirement

Welcome to the 5 September 2008 Friday Bulletin

Making sure you have enough money to see you through to the end of your days is hard work and with the up and down nature of the sharemarkets over recent years, many superannuation funds have taken a battering. Richard Sheargold explains in Transition to retirement how you can make the most of what money you do earn and maybe even be able to work less hours.
If you haven’t already done so, complete our online Retirement Living Survey for the chance to win some truly fabulous prizes. Find out how Centrelink can help with the dilema of how earning a little extra money can have an effect on your pension.
With the week almost over, indulge yourself with some of Euan’s treat-time truffles.

Keep the spring in your step!
