-- The 6 Biggest Retirement Planning Mistakes --
With so many rules and regulations, planning for retirement can be daunting. And, while you won’t become a retirement planning expert overnight, there are certainly some mistakes and traps you should avoid when building out your retirement plan.
The most common retirement planning mistakes people make aren't ones that will get you in trouble from the tax man, or have you breaking the super rules. Instead, the mistakes we go through in this video will cause your retirement savings to run-out 10 years too soon, cause you to work years longer, or result in you missing out on opportunities that could boost your retirement income by thousands of dollars every year.
In this video, I’m going to take you through the 6 biggest retirement planning mistakes, so that you can avoid these costly errors. Plus, I’ll let you know what you should be doing instead.

An important point that needs to be made for those considering retirement is elimination of debt. All well and good people retiring but if they still have a mortgage, credit cards or loans, their super will be supporting the debt and not their lifestyle post work.

Retire as soon as you can and enjoy it. You are just a number on the hamster wheel. I just sorted out some finances for a sick cousin in NZ. He just turned 65 so gets full single pension ~S1200 f/n, he worked 43 years for the same company on minimum wage. When he handed in his retirement notice all he got was a 1 line email saying yes we accept your resignation and good luck with your retirement. When it became compulsory he paid 3% into super, his employer put 3% into super, after 12 years it was worth $42,000 I don't know how the Kiwi's survive. Council Rates are $3,400 his Pensioner Goldcard is practically worthless other than free off peak public transport.

I don't think 'working too long' counts if you enjoy your job and also if you have always lived a full life and not put off the fun trips until retirement. One of our friends just complained today he wished he had kept working, even if just a few days, as he is very bored. Having younger colleagues keeps you sharper intellectually as well. Too many retirees end up in bubbles of old people and they age mentally much faster. Make sure that you have a plan of good things to do next and it doesnt just involve others 'your age'.

I completely agree. It is a mistake for people who don't enjoy their work, though. But yes, when I refer to retirement, I generally mean the ability to retire - because I also think keeping active within a work environment can be healthy.

My Father made a costly mistake not knowing he could have been receiving the NZ Super Pension (similar to age Pension in Australia) for 25 years. The NZ Super is not means or income tested like here in Australia . He was self funded through a NZ Army Pension and Investment outside of Super. It was not until he went into aged care and he became eligible for the Australian age Pension that I found out. So he had missed out on approximately $15000 pa for 25 years. There must be many Kiwi expats who are missing out like my Dad did.

All good advice, but I would add one other important thing.......what do you plan to do once you retire? What is your lifestyle going to be. One person could retire on $800 a week and live comfortable. Another person with the same amount might struggle. You have to plan for YOUR interests.

2-5 for me are no brainers but 1 is a very interesting one. For me I would like to semi retire, work 2 - 3 days per week as I love my job. But I know changes are in the wind and the company I work for will be broken up and sold off so I may be put out to pasture earlier than I would like. My aim is to semi retire at 67, 5 years from now.

@SuperGuyAu

Not if you don't reside or haven't resided in them. If you are considered a resident of another country for tax purposes, you'll need to speak to a tax professional in each of those overseas countries to find out whether the income is taxable. Australia doesn't set the tax rules of other countries.

If you wish to run your own business to ensure financial stability, I would say it is a bad move. Most startups failed or will not ensure your financial stability at all. I have been through that a few times and have read a ton of materials on it. If you continue working and for the next 10-15 years, your super, and how you manage and contribute to that super, will ensure your financial stability. I know, because I was told "don't give up your day job", and that was the best advice.

Hi. Say I retire and start a pension income stream at age 60 and transfer the maximum of $1.9m into pension phase. I draw down the minimum of 4% per year in the first year. During that year, I make 10% in investment earns within my pension account. My account balance is now over $1.9m (say the balance at the end of that first year is now $2m). Do I have to withdraw the excess over $1.9m? Or pay tax on the earnings above 1.9m? Or are these investment earnings allowed, and I just have to withdraw at least 4% of $2m that next year. I hope this makes sense. Any clarity and or link to information would be appreciated
@SuperGuyAu
@SuperGuyAu 6 ай бұрын
The $1.9M transfer balance cap relates only to amounts transferred into pension phase (not movements in value due to earnings or withdrawals). Each year you need to draw down the minimum required income based on your 1 July balance and age-based pension factor.

Good video. I would like retirement planning advice, particularly about tax minimisation (I’m now 57 and semi-retired). However, I hate the way financial advisers want me to fill out a “lifestyle questionnaire”, which seems to ask all sorts of irrelevant questions. For example, have I got income protection insurance and have I got health insurance? To me, this says “My aim is to sell you insurance”. I’ve walked away from a couple of financial advisers for this very reason. The last adviser I engaged told me she had to collect this information by law. Really?

@@SuperGuyAu You are correct - there are good advisors - the problem is finding them. When I retired I went to all the large "institutions" and I interviewed them. Most were absolutely hopeless. They sold their own products (conflict of interest), and had little knowledge. I was lucky in that I understood finance and investment. I eventually found a good advisor who allowed me to spread my money - and I was involved in that spread. Never looked back. BTW A couple of those large institutions copped some heavy fines as a result of the Royal Commission.

And the presenter is correct - most people are far too conservative. Oh, and most importantly get yourself a good financial advisor. They are worth their weight in gold, but there aren't a lot of them. Many are just good salespersons.
