The generation redefining aging

As we advance into the 21st century, the concept of aging is undergoing a transformation, largely thanks to a new generation of ‘oldies’ who don’t feel old – and are reframing what it means to be getting on in years.

Traditionally, aging has been associated with decline, frailty, and a sense of irrelevance. However, today’s generation is challenging societal norms and expectations while embracing a more vibrant and empowered perspective on life in later years.

How to financially ease into retirement

Deciding when to retire is a big decision and even more difficult if you are concerned about your retirement income.

The average age of Australia’s 4.2 million retirees is 56.9 years but many people leave it a little later to finish work with most intending to retire at just over 65 years.
If you’re not quite ready to retire, a ‘transition to retirement’ (TTR) strategy might work for you.

Navigating turbulent times in the share market

As investors grapple with uncertainty, keeping a cool head has never been more important.

“Time in the market, not timing the market” is a popular investment philosophy that emphasises the importance of staying invested over the long term rather than trying to predict shortterm market movements. While markets can be volatile in the short term, historically, they tend to grow over time.
It’s a strategy that helps you avoid getting caught up in shortterm market fluctuations or trying to predict where the market is heading.
