Part 1: The Retirement Puzzle
Topics to be covered: What are the retirement views & expectations; Who can afford to retire; How the current policies, trends & conditions will affect you; and What risks are you exposed too, unknowingly.

The speaker will also touch on the following:
Questioning the salesman: Passive vs Active
Miss-information: Conflict of interest. Winners & losers
Central authorities’ response: forced risk taking
Broken Promises: Relying on companies, government, and other 3rd parties as a weak strategy

Part 2: (a) Demographics:
The shrinking population & the largest generation of all time (Baby Boomers) retiring into the highest valuations in history (property/stocks/bonds etc)
Life expectancy shift: Mortality rates formula incorrect as people living longer & pensions returns too low.
Wealth gap: Richest generation in history vs average people with little to no wealth

Part 2 (b): Economic minefields on the radar.
Bail in; volatility; interest rates; debt; inflation & currency devaluation; tax; and labor participation rate

Part 3: Personal Planning Exercise
A look at the process to achieving the best life possible with the money you have.
Planning exercise to prepare an income for life. A foundation to build your own economy and be financially independent.
