Hi everyone,
In this week’s Smart Investing, Senior Personal Finance Writer Tony Kaye takes a look at the rise in "revenge spending" as Australians emerge from lockdown, and why it’s important to assess your finances before you go out on a buying spree.
We also discuss the risks and behavioural factors investors can control when planning for retirement, and why a solid plan will allow retirees to live the life they want post-work.
Lastly, we revisit a piece on regular investing and why setting up automatic investments and dollar-cost averaging are powerful investment approaches.
Regards, | |

Head of Corporate Affairs
