Scientists are telling us that soon we will reach an average life expectancy of 100 years old. For some people that may be very exciting, but for others it is simply terrifying. How will we save enough money in 40 years of working to fund 35 years of retirement? In this podcast Maya speaks to financial planner Wynand Gouws about his book “To 100 & Beyond – how to make your money last as long as you do”.
Wynand explains why asking “when should I retire?” is the wrong question, how you can plan your retirement to be more tax efficient and unpacks the curious phenomenon that the older you are, the longer you are expected to live.
