So this week some of my time has been spent (invested) in helping my wife work through an issue with her Self Managed Super Fund. Remembering that I am not a financial planner but my work week affords me a greater opportunity to wait on hold with banks, fund managers and government departments.
For three years it has been ticking away with very little input apart from that required by law as the trustee of a SMSF.
There are three lessons we have been reminded of from this experience;
- Don’t put all your eggs in one basket
- If it looks too good to be true it probably is
- Go with your gut.
