Getting the timing right Does financial market turbulence mean you will need to work until you drop? Working to the day we die may appear to be the only option for those of us affected by falling house prices, higher debt and the stockmarket slump. But even if we are now going to work longer than first planned, it doesn’t stop us understanding how timing our move from full-time work can maximise savings. When should you consider slowing down and how can you afford it? In Getting the timing right, AboutSeniors financial guru, Richard Sheargold, suggests ways of structuring superannuation and work income, so that taking life a little easier may not be such an unachievable goal. We’ve even included an easy budget planner in this downloadable PDF so you can work out what you have – and how far it will go! Colleen, an AboutSeniors subscriber, delivers a timely reminder that making sure your superannuation payments are covered should you be unable to work, is important to minimise unwelcome surprises in later years. With Christmas just around the corner, we’ve been delighted to receive your very clever Christmas money saving tips and Shirley shares with us her Simple Bun Loaf recipe which you can make from ingredients in your pantry. From the ashes of the World Trade Centre comes a new US warship, the ultimate in memorial and recycling. As the weekend draws closer, get your hankies ready and head along to the new Richard Gere and Dianne Lane weepy reviewed by Debbie, try your hand at our Friday Trivia, or laugh at a new way to make Medicare pay.
