Meeting your income needs

Planning your retirement years

Your working days are behind you and your savings must provide an income that not only maintains your lifestyle (considering inflation) but also caters to expenses that may be more common in your retirement years (for example, medical costs).

How much you draw as an income from your savings is dependent on your financial needs.
Retirement checklist

Important questions to consider

  • Retirement checklist
What are my retirement needs?
Consider if you will require a cash lump sum to settle debt or if can you utilise the full savings fund to purchase an annuity.
Do you have enough saved?
You will need to ascertain if your savings plan is sufficient to meet your cash and annuity needs.
How do I plan for the next few decades?
Determining if you would like to leave a financial legacy to your loved ones is an important consideration when setting up your plan, as well as the impact on your monthly income required from the annuity.
