Luke on 2CC – PSS benefits, your contribution matters!

The PSS benefit you receive is partially determined by what you add


Luke Smith joined 2CC Talking Canberra 1206AM.
Financial Adviser, Luke Smith, Financial Planner CanberraThe Money Show aired on Friday 29 May 2020 and the topic: PSS Super- The Public Sector Superannuation Scheme.

In today’s topic Financial Planner Luke Smith joins Leon to explore the opportunities many people who work for the Government don’t realise they have with the PSS Scheme.  Leon and Luke start the show talking about the Covid-19 re-start of the NRL football season with the Canberra Raiders playing this weekend with the Melbourne Storm. Go Raiders!
(Post game note: Good news, Canberra won 22-6, sorry to the Storm fans listening).

Key highlights include:

  • What is the PSS?
  • How is your final benefit calculated?
  • Do you know why it’s a good fund to be a part of?
  • What is the benefit of making a 10% contribution if you can?
  • What’s the difference between making a 5% contribution and a 10% contribution?
  • Can you have a second superannuation fund to salary sacrifice if you wanted to save more to super?
  • Does the PSS take new members? Sadly no!
  • How should you take the PSS once you retire? Pension, Lump Sum or Combination?
  • Start thinking about your PSS with the end in mind – the sooner you start the better! 
  • An offer for a free appointment to talk about your own financial planning needs.
