Robert's Retirement Advisory

Robert's Retirement Advisory Financial Planner from Adelaide specialising in pre and post retirement advice.

Robert’s Retirement Advisory was established to provide sound financial advice to everyday Australians who are looking for help and guidance navigating the financial aspect of planning for retirement or those who are already retired. There are already a lot of other challenges people face whether that may be lifestyle or health challenges when retirement is discussed. We aim to be a trusted source

to help assist and provide clarity around the financial challenges in retirement. Some challenges pre and post retirees face along the way is not knowing how long their funds will last, whether there investments are positioned correctly, what will happen with their estate plan, how to begin to deal with Centrelink or their superannuation fund - this is where we step in to provide advice and implement the advice to give clients the best possible outcome and more importantly peace of mind so they can live their retirement with one less stress. There is lots of information out there (almost too much) and it is a space where the government can always change the goal post. I found individuals really struggle to cut through the noise and put a plan in place. That is where I help and use my education and experience to guide you through retirement. Everyone is different and sometimes your needs may actually be more complicated than you think and as a professional I will educate you about options and help you decide what is best. I aim to do the basics right at my practice and be contactable when needed and also not to overcomplicate things.

The Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia conducts research on retirees aged over 65 in terms of how much they spend. When I had a look at their most recent data, for a couple who are retired to live what they consider a "comfortable" retirement which includes travel/holidays have approximately $7,500 per year allocated for this.

It is important not to get caught up with what you see/hear from everyone else or different articles online because what you spend is individual to you.

For some retirees I advise - $7,500 per year is more than ample, other clients will look at the $7,500 per year figure and tell me that will just cover flights alone for international travel and will need a lot more.

The other thing to consider, retirement and plans aren't always a straight line, some retirees might just have a few trips that they would like to allocate for over say a five year period of $30,000 per year - then after that, the $7,500 per year figure might suffice.

For those that know me I don’t know much at all about footy… But when my cousin asked to give me the opportunity I was happy to be apart and sponsor his team Ingle Farm Football Club for the 2026 season!

If you are on a Centrelink payment such as the age pension, it is important to tell them about any changes in assets, i.e. acquiring / selling an asset or if an asset decreases or increases such as money in the bank that there are certain thresholds for.

This helps prevent them overpaying you and then you needing to pay them back.

Additionally, it can also increase your entitlement. For example if you are on a part-age pension payment and withdraw $20,000 from your bank account or an account-based pension to pay for a personal overseas holiday and no longer have the funds it is good to update them as soon as possible as your payment will likely increase due to the reduction in your assets.
