Retirement Planning Central Coast
Your retirement is easily one of the most important financial events you need to consider. Unfortunately a large number of people often don’t start thinking about retirement until they are about to stop work or have the decision forced on them.
Planning for your retirement is easy to put off or forget about when it seems like its long time away but as each year passes it becomes more and more important to get your planning started.
It’s all about achieving the lifestyle you want
So while most of us have superannuation thanks to the Superannuation Guarantee, it’s important to consider whether this will be enough for you to achieve the lifestyle you want in retirement. It’s important to note that superannuation may not be the only source of income. The age pension and personal investments are other streams of income that might form part of your plan.
With a little planning, you can make a big difference to your retirement outcome. What does your retirement look like? Whether it’s travel, volunteering, more time with the grandkids, writing that book, gardening or a combination of lots of activities we can help you get there.
It’s OK if you’re feeling anxious about it and don’t know where to start. Start by talking to us and we’ll help point you in the right direction. The important bit is to start.

Five stars for such a honest and supportive company. As a single woman I was totally lost with what to do venturing into retirement and I felt like I was in a void too scared to make such a huge vital decision. Thankfully a friend mentioned Country Wide Wealth helped them make a decision she was thrilled with. So I bit the bullet and made an appointment and I am forever grateful. I was terrified before the first meeting thinking have I got enough information, are they going to take my money, am I going to lose everything, am I being naive. Honestly I couldn't have felt better after I walked out of there no pressure just pure advice made in simple layman's terms I had to make no decisions on the spot I didn't feel pressured at all it was pure advice that I felt within my soul was good guidance. I have been with them for nearly 2 years now my life has become so much less stressed and I feel secure I'm heading in the right direction. I could not recommend them more highly. Thank you Troy and your extremely competent crew.Posted on Google![]()

Mark & Jaye-Marie were absolutely excellent! As first-home buyers, we had so many questions, and they guided us through every step with patience and clarity. They took the time to explain everything, from loan options to how offset and redraw accounts work both online and in person at their branch. Thanks to their support, we were able to secure our home loan and buy our first house with confidence. We couldn’t recommend them more highly!Posted on Google![]()

We have been very happy with the service provided by Troy at Country Wide Wealth. Being a small firm, they provide personalised service that is sensible, realistic and explained in an easy-to-understand way. They charge a fixed fee depending on the services provided, rather than a percentage of what you have invested and there is no pressure to remain as ongoing, paid clients. I would definitely recommend them.Posted on Google![]()

My wife and I met with Troy as we had come across a small windfall and were looking for advise to use these funds in the most tax effective way. Troy was very diligent and explained different options in lay man’s terms and with some great graphs it was easy to understand what he was saying without having an economic degree. We will definitely be using Country Wide Wealth again and would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for financial advicePosted on Google![]()
