Lifestyle Planning - Chapmans Accounting
written by Michael O'BrienJohn worked 50 to 60 hours per week in his own business for over 30 years. He was in his 50’s and looked forward to his retirement at some stage, but didn’t know how to achieve this. On our advice, he was able to sell the major part of his business and by using capital gains tax concessions, was able to receive all the proceeds tax free. He invested the bulk of the funds in a superannuation fund, draws a non taxable pension and now plays golf two days a week and looks after his grandchildren one day a week. How did we go about lifestyle planning for John?
Lifestyle planning is becoming a priority in our everyday lives. Nowadays, life expectancy is in the 80’s, so if we retire at 65, we have another 18 years to live. Lifestyle planning should not only be restricted to retirement. What if I am only 30 years old and have another 35 years in business?
The important thing is to plan your lifestyle, talk to someone who can review your situation and provide a different perspective. If you want to plan your lifestyle, contact Michael O'Brien at our office on 4396 4322. |

Every family is different and there will often be unique issues that need to be addressed such as:
Trust StructureEstate Planning is not for just the rich but affects all of us regardless of our circumstances. To leave our heads in the sand is a sure fire way to create the potential for emotional and legal trauma for our successors. Aubrey Brown Partners

Your Business Premises – Corporate Image
|
Whether intentionally or not, within the first 5 minutes of meeting someone, we form an opinion of who they are and what they are like. How we portray ourselves to others when we first meet can stay with us a very long time! Similarly, your business projects a 'corporate image'- the look and feel of the business to potential customers. Your corporate image explains what you do and positions you against your competitors. There are a few simple things you can do to ensure you are projecting the right image:
Every 5 years you should ask yourself 'Does our office accurately reflect the corporate image we want to project?' At Project Works Design, we can design an upgrade of your existing premises or a completely new building that accurately reflects your corporate image. By using architectural features and your corporate colours we can transform the image of your premises. If you would like to discuss the possibilities, please call Graham Mann on 0412 637 875.
