Couple, homeowner $375,000

Couple, non-homeowner $575,000

Age Pension recipients with an asset value ‘around’ the threshold are likely to see an increase in their Age Pension entitlement, and Age Pension recipients with assets above the threshold are likely to see a reduction in their Age Pension – in some cases to zero. Unfortunately, it is the pensioners who have prepared a “nest egg” who are most likely to be impacted by this change.

What can I do about it? While your mind may already be speeding through visions of fewer Christmas presents for the grandchildren and reducing that shopping list to the bare necessities, there is no need to take drastic measures just yet. A good financial planner can help you reap the benefits of the nest egg you so cleverly prepared and continue to receive the Age Pension you deserve. Can I put it off?
