Living your best retirement could involve learning a new skill or following a dream you have always had – a hobby, a second career or just ticking off things on your bucket list.
Personal Finance and Alexander Forbes have teamed up to bring you the one-day Ready Set Retire conference, which will empower you to make the most of this phase of your life.
Presentations include the following:
* Recently retired founding editor of Personal Finance, Bruce Cameron, and a financial adviser from each region will discuss retirement decisions;
* Gareth Johnson, head of individual investments at Investment Solutions, will explore investing for your goals;
* John Anderson, Alexander Forbes’s pensions expert, will unpack the realities of your retirement decisions;
* Jenny Gordon, head of legal advice for Alexander Forbes’s retail division, will explain tax planning for retirement;
* Cathy Yuill, an adult development coach, will help you build a bridge between employment and retirement.
* Anthea Towert, Alexander Forbes’s health-funding expert, will advise you on funding your healthcare cover in retirement.
* To lighten the otherwise weighty topics, celebrity chef and MasterChef South Africa judge, Benny Masekwameng, will give you a taste of how to eat smart and stay healthy for what may be many years in retirement.
The one-day Ready Set Retire conference will be held on March 5 in Port Elizabeth, March 9 in Cape Town, March 11 in Johannesburg, and March 17 in Durban. Booking for the conference, through Computicket, is open. Tickets, at R250 each, include a light lunch.
