March 8, 2010 Time To Take Control Of Your Superannuation
By Jason Fittler
How has your super fund performed over the past couple of years?
Not really happy with the performance? Sick of paying fees to fund managers?
Too many people pay too little attention to their superannuation. In reality this is your second largest asset and will be your largest asset by the time you retire. In a Bear market which we are in now if you truly want to make your money work as hard as you do it is time to think about setting up a Self Managed Super Fund (SMSF).
Time to take control of your superannuation.
Benefits
1. Lower fees – if the combined super balance of yourself and your spouse is more than $200,000 you will pay less fees inside a SMSF.
2. Control – in a SMSF you can decide what to invest in, be it shares, property or cash.
3. Gearing – you can gear up your super fund, this will over the longer term provide a better result.
4. Better return – lower fees and a better choice in investments will yield you a better overall return.
Many of you would be invested in Industry Super, do you know what you are invested in? Do you know many of the investments held in Industry Super funds are rejected by professional investors.
Do not rely on the government to look after you in old age.
Take control of your super now.
