Superannuation is a reflection of yourself – an ever-changing entity. So as your family expands, homes are purchased, or deaths occur, your super and retirement plan should be adjusted accordingly. Regular check-ups are recommended, but with whom and how?

Well, in this final episode of the podcast, Andrew Mackinnon is talking to Thomas Bukolt, a Cbus Superannuation Advice Consultant, he knows super back to front and the importance of retirement check-ins, nominating beneficiaries and ensuring your insurances cover what you need.

So, get ready for your retirement checkup, because it's time to shift the way you think about your super.
