Planning contributions to managed super funds
Tuesday August 26, 2008
Managed super funds require planning if they are to reach the appropriate amount that you will need for retirement. If you reach the end of your career without enough funds saved in managed super funds, then it could be difficult for you to get along. Those who have become used to a certain lifestyle need to plan for even higher amounts to put into their managed super funds. The question of how much to contribute in addition to the contributions of your employer can be difficult to answer without the right tools, however.
A superannuation calculator can be excellent for planning purposes, as long as it takes into account the types of super funds you use, as well as a realistic level of growth for your funds. By using a superannuation calculator that will calculate the amount you will need in managed super funds by the time you retire, you will be able to figure out the amount you will need to contribute in order to retire in comfort.
