Event Recap: Living Through Retirement
On Wednesday, 27 November 2024, we hosted two sessions focused on Living Through Retirement at our Sydney Offices. Both sessions provided attendees with valuable insights into the complexities of retirement planning and a conversation around the financial strategies for achieving a comfortable and secure retirement.
The feedback from our clients was fantastic, with many highlighting the confidence and clarity they gained from the discussion—insights they can now apply to their retirement journey.
