Retirement measuring up?
With the cost of living going up each year, it’s hard to imagine how much you’ll need for your retirement.
The latest figures from the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (AFSA) suggest that if you’re aiming for a comfortable lifestyle in retirement, you’ll need to save about $510,000 for a couple or $430,000 for a single person.* It would be even more if you want to enjoy some of the finer things in life.
So what will this amount afford you in retirement?
Enter the Retirement Lab to find out and see whether you’re on track to live the future lifestyle you want.
