Ah, retirement. That glorious era when alarms are silenced, commutes are conquered, and your slippers become your new best friends. But let’s not get too comfy without thinking ahead because making the most of your golden years takes more than just a lekker cup of rooibos and a crossword puzzle.
It’s about living your best life without sweating the small stuff… Or the big stuff. And that’s where our old pal insurance comes in. Let’s unpack how to maximise your retirement and why having the right insurance in place is non-negotiable.
Plan with purpose (and a bit of play)
Budgeting like a boss
Start with a realistic budget that includes your living expenses, medical bills, travel dreams, and spontaneous spoils (you deserve that monthly lunch with the mates at the local). Remember to factor in inflation… R100 today might only get you a koeksister and a half in 10 years.
Keep moving, keep grooving
Staying active is key. Whether it’s a morning stroll, a weekend golf game, or some turns at the monthly sokkie, movement helps keep both body and mind in tip-top shape.
Stay connected
Loneliness is 1 of the silent burdens of retirement. Keep close to your friends, join clubs or volunteer. Not only will this keep your social calendar full, but it might just lead to your next great adventure.
Why insurance is your crown jewel
Home sweet covered home
Your house isn’t just a roof over your head… It’s your castle. Whether it’s a freestanding house, a townhouse, or a flat on the third floor, buildings and home contents insurance are necessary. From geysers that burst to burglars who fancy your flat-screen, the king has your back.
And just so you know… If you turned your home upside down, anything that would fall out is considered home contents. Everything that stays put? That’s buildings insurance. Clever, right?
Stay golden with personal accident cover
Accidents happen, even in retirement. Personal accident insurance ensures that you or your loved ones are financially cushioned in the event of disability or death due to an accident. It’s a grim thought, but a comforting safety net.
Portable possessions? Sorted
Your hearing aid, your phone, that new Kindle… These are the little things that keep your lifestyle ticking. King Price offers portable possessions insurance to ensure you can carry on (literally) without worry. And did we mention you could insure some items, like your golf clubs, for just R1 if your car or motorbike is comprehensively insured with us?
