Some issues to consider ahead of time include:
Timing:
- Is full – retirement my only option – could I save tax if I retire a few months later?
- Is my work changing and is there a good time to jump ship?
Living:
- Are we happy in our current home or should we agree on a new location?
Funding:
- How much more will I need to live comfortably throughout retirement?
- How can I best meet my weekly expenses?
- Will I need a new car?
Activities:
- What have I always wanted to do and not had the time for?
- Are we going to get under each other’s feet?
Speak to your financial adviser about your plans and how you can best move into a happy and fulfilling retirement.
