Retirement Should Be About Freedom—Not Financial Stress
Retirement should be a time of travel, relaxation, and quality moments with loved ones. But for many Australians, financial stress is rewriting that dream.
The 2025 Rethinking Retirement Report from Colonial First State reveals a growing gap between expectations and reality:
📉 59% of Australians no longer believe they’ll achieve a comfortable retirement.
📉 Financial security among retirees has dropped from 71% last year to just 64% today.
📉 1 in 4 retirees use their super to pay off debt—rising to 30% for those without a home.
The reality? The average Australian retires with $175,000 still owing on their mortgage. Yet, the average super balance sits at just $357,000 for men and $288,000 for women—far short of what’s needed for a comfortable retirement.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), a single retiree needs $50,004 per year, while a couple requires $70,482. Many are left wondering: Is super alone enough?.
The Cost of Waiting
Many Australians believe that if they just save a little more or rely on their super, things will work out. But delaying an investment strategy could mean:
🚨 Running out of money too soon
🚨 Being forced to downgrade your lifestyle
🚨 Struggling with unexpected costs in later years
🚨 Missing out on property investment opportunities as prices rise
The truth is smart planning today can secure a comfortable, stress-free future.
Real People, Real Results
Many Australians have taken control of their financial future with Haverton’s guidance. Here’s what they have to say:
💬 Ershad & Merina
“Since our first Discovery Call, we’ve had a clear path to financial security and are now enjoying the benefits of owning two investment properties. If you’re on the fence about building your portfolio, don’t hesitate—take the leap!”
💬 Vanessa & Matt
“Our Discovery Call with Haverton inspired us to start our journey, and it’s been fantastic. It set the foundation for our future—and our son’s. Thinking about booking that first call? Don’t wait—just do it!”
💬 Dominic & Candy
“Geoff explained everything clearly and helped us create a step-by-step plan—we didn’t have to figure it all out alone.

💬 Bec & Paul
“Haverton’s Discovery Call gave us a clear roadmap to financial security, eliminating our initial doubts. With their expert guidance, we took the right steps, and the equity we’ve gained already surpasses our lifetime super savings—putting us on track for a comfortable retirement.”
💬 Rod & Debbie
“Our Discovery Call immediately put us at ease. We really liked that we weren’t pushed or forced to do anything. We took our time, and the decisions we made on both investment properties made sense—we couldn’t be happier with the outcome.”
