Debt Management vs. Retirement Savings: Making Smart Financial Decisions


Listen Later

In this podcast, Warren Ingram answers questions about contributing to a retirement fund and withdrawing money from a retirement fund to pay off debts. He discusses the limitations on investing in international investments through living annuities and suggests being patient as the cap on offshore capacity may ease in the future.

Takeaways

  • Maximize the tax break for retirement fund contributions by contributing up to the maximum allowed amount.
  • Avoid over-contributing to retirement funds and consider contributing to a tax-free savings account.
  • Quitting a job to access retirement funds can lead to financial difficulties, so explore other options to pay off debts.
  • Be patient with the limitations on investing in international investments through living annuities, as the cap may ease in the future.
  • Maintain a balanced investment approach and consider maximizing tax reallocation.
