Description

59-year-old Donna says that she didn’t really understand super when she was younger, with other factors also impacting her financial position. Now, as she approaches retirement age, she worries about her future. "I [think] back to my 20s when I was just going out, having fun and not even wondering or worrying what super is. I'm really concerned now … I've missed the boat." On average, women retire with around 25 per cent less in super than men, according to the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA). To read more about how Australians are navigating the "enviable" superannuation system, watch Insight episode Super Future.
