The Facts:

It is a troubling fact that after a divorce, men tend to experience a smaller decline in income than women.

Changing from a dual income household to a single income one can, in addition to acquiring sole responsibility for your retirement income, have weighty financial consequences for a divorced woman.

The Challenge:

Divorce is an emotional life event.

It will be hard, but you will owe it to yourself to act quickly and minimize the impact that your divorce will have on your savings. 

In retirement, planning for the stability of your retirement income and your investments becomes your sole responsibility. 

Being single, you will be entitled to the Single Rate of Age Pension.

Having a financial strategy that is sound, clear and easy to understand will ensure stability for your future. Consider the benefits of involving family members in making these decisions.
