Welcome to our quarterly newsletter

New superannuation changes came into effect on 1 July 2022. Discover what the changes are and how they may benefit you.

The markets have been very volatile this year and can be rather unsettling for retirees or pre-retirees. Having a plan in place can help you enjoy the retirement you deserve.

The Age Pension can be welcome income support for retirees. The amount you may receive from the Government will depend on a number of eligibility requirements. Find out more here.

It's widely known that women generally retire with less in their super than men. Learn how you could boost you or your partner's nest egg to help close the super gap.

The cost of living is on the rise, so is it time to change your shopping habits and start buying fresh produce direct from the farmer? We’ve listed some great farmers’ markets in our final article.

We love to hear from you, so please feel free to contact us with any questions about our articles in this newsletter on 07 3207 7157 or email luke.marton@lbdfs.com.au
