Focusing on your financial goals
When something in your life changes, don’t forget about your super! A quick check in at different points along the way can help you stay on track with your financial goals.
The principle of compounding
Your super grows in two ways.
The first is from the contributions that you or your employer make. The second is through investment returns. The advantage of investment returns is that they benefit from compounding. That is, the more investment returns you receive, and the higher your account balance, the more investment returns you will receive.

Women and money
