Wealth Creation
YOUR SUPER POWER
As a topic, wealth creation may not be on top of your excitement list. However, do not underestimate its importance.
Most people will face some form of financial crisis or pressure throughout life, and having skills to navigate these situations is priceless.
In challenging times, individuals who manage cash inflows and outflows correctly and accumulate positive asset values are something of a superhero.
BASELINE ASSESSMENT
Most individuals have a limited income to play with. Wise people tend to put this money to good use and invest in wealth-creation assets.
Perhaps you have bought a home, already paid off a substantial amount of the mortgage, are on track to pay off any debt over the next ten years, and are surprised at how much super you have accumulated already.
You might feel you have done well. But what if, on review, you could have done 20% better? Would you still be satisfied?.
SUPER MANAGEMENT
Few people know how to manage super optimally, and most unknowingly defer control of this asset to the government. Anyone in MySuper falls into this category.
While MySuper should help you grow a retirement nest egg, you must check regularly to see if this is your best option. As you acquire a larger super balance, active management of the asset is more important than passive, the difference being you position your asset based upon immediate market expectations rather than expectations over the longer market cycle.
If finance is not your strong suit, it pays to seek high-quality yet affordable super advice to help you make informed decisions.
Mistakes in managing your super in the second half of your career can be costly.
