In this case study episode, Stuart takes us through a real-life scenario of a client who retired at 55 with ambitious spending goals. The client wanted to spend a hefty $300,000 per year for the first 15 years of retirement, followed by reduced spending of $200,000 and then $150,000 annually in later years. With a substantial asset base including $2 million from selling their home, $2.5 million in super, and a $4 million beach house, proper planning was crucial.
Stuart outlines the multi-faceted strategy they devised, involving property elements like investing the home sale proceeds, buying a city property, and restructuring to minimise capital gains and land taxes. Navigating investment entities and structures to optimise imputation credits was also key. Perhaps the biggest challenge was generating a high income stream, especially before the client could access their super.
This case study highlights the importance of comprehensive retirement planning that accounts for desired spending levels, makes prudent return assumptions, seamlessly integrates tax planning, and strategically utilises all available assets and income sources. An engaging listen for anyone looking to master their retirement game plan.
