Ep 109 – How Women Are Saving Smarter for Retirement, with guests Jacqui Irwin and Ingrid Thompson
Looking for some advice about being wealthy in retirement? Today, we are talking about practical steps you can take now to help you get you there…
My guests today are Jacqui Irwin and Ingrid Thompson and our focus today is on women saving for their retirement.
Jacqui says:
A lot of women are saving for their grown up children, often at the expense of their own retirement, e.g. giving kids deposits for houses or allowing them to live at home rent-free. But please get your own retirement plan in place first! The best gift you can give your children is teaching them independence!” (Jacqui Irwin, guest on Her Ambitious Career podcast)
In this episode…
- We talk about accruing interest on genuine investments, such as your Superannuation (retirement savings)
- Staying in the driving seat and managing your Super effectively
- When the right time to start saving really is
- Getting support and advice, rather than avoiding the issue
- Exploring Insurance
- Tying your ‘identity’ to more than just your ‘work’, to make retirement more enjoyable!
Ingrid says:
Women are avoiding addressing the issue and feel overwhelmed by the volume of information out there. More than 70% of retirees say they wish they had invested more and started earlier – the earlier the better because of compound interest largely, which works 24/7 for you.” (Ingrid Thompson, guest on Her Ambitious Career podcast)
