The Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) provides numerous resources for the superannuation industry and the general public.

Each quarter ASFA provides a comprehensive breakdown of expenses for both a 'comfortable' and 'modest' lifestyle in retirement.

Ross Clare is the Director of Research for ASFA and discussed how the Retirement Standard is complied and what is included.

Vanguard Australia recently produced the report "How Australia Retires". A study exploring Australians' attitudes towards retirement and how they feel about this phase of life.

Vanguard's Head of Superannuation, Shannon Nutter, joined Tim to discuss the key findings of the report.

Andrew Rutter is the author of "My Future's So Bright I Gotta Wear Shades". Andrew wrote the book after going through his own transition to retirement, finding that there was a scarcity of resources that were well aligned with Australian attitudes to lifestyle planning.

The recent data breaches at Optus and Medibank have brought our potential Cyber vulnerabilities into the spotlight.

Earlier this year, Tim interviewed Fraser Jack, from the Cyber Collective and discussed the actions that we need to take to ensure that we reduce the risk of a Cyber attack in the home.

3 in 5 Australians say they care deeply about environmental issues, yet only 1 in 5 hold responsible investments.

One possible reason for this misalignment is that many people don't understand Ethical investment.

Thanks for joining along with us the past 4 weeks of the 30-Day Savings Challenge.

This week Tim & Karen talk to two of our Money Mentees - Sophie & Shannan.

They tell us how they found the process, the challenges and the wins.

Measuring your savings progress is a vital component of you plan.

This is a process of Measure, Manage, Adjust, Repeat!

This week Karen and Tim discuss how frequently you should measure your progress, how to bring some fun and engagement to your progress meetings and how to deal with 'slip ups'.

This week Tim and Karen tackle the topic of how to bridge the gap between where you are today and where you want to be tomorrow.

If you have worked through the exercises in the initial 2 episodes, you will have established your cashflow surplus or deficit.

In week 2 of our 30-Day Savings challenge, we help you get clear on where you are today, financially, and learn the money metrics to measure your financial health.

How much do you actually spend? This week we help you 'get real' on this figure.

Money needs direction and purpose. Knowing what you value and being intentional about how you want to live your life and align your money is one of the first steps to taking control over your money.

In week 1 of the 30 Day Savings Challenge, Karen & Tim discuss the importance of having a very strong foundation for your goals.

They say that 'your focus determines your reality'. Our modern existence is full of distractions such as smart phones, emails, phone calls and unproductive meetings.

Do you feel focused on the things you need to achieve?
