Retirement is one of the biggest financial questions Australians ask: how much super is enough, and is $1 million really enough to live comfortably?
In this episode, our hosts unpack MyBudget’s in‑depth guide to retirement planning in Australia. They break down the latest 2025 superannuation changes, explain what the ASFA Retirement Standard actually means in real dollars, and explore the difference between a comfortable and modest retirement lifestyle.
You’ll hear what singles and couples really need per year, how the Age Pension fits in, why the gender super gap still matters, and how inflation can quietly erode your retirement income over time.
They also tackle the big question: is $1 million enough to retire in Australia? The answer depends on home ownership, health, lifestyle goals and how long your retirement may last, and they explain exactly why.
