ESTABLISHING YOUR LIFE STAGE

Itrsquos a time thatrsquos met with relief and excitement for some a time of apprehension for others A whole new chapter in your life retirement requires a big shift ndash one that many South Africans are insufficiently prepared for financially

RETIREDThis is your time to rediscover yourself your partner your hobbies and what really makes you tick Itrsquos a time to watch your kids spread their wings and make you proud You may be left with more time more money and less responsibilities ndash the perfect time to shift focus and invest just for yourself for a change

EMPTY NESTER

The kids are growing up and they never fail to remind you of how fast life is passing Finger-painting yesterday long-division today Itrsquos a time when you can dream together as a family looking forward to that holiday getting a puppy finding that dream home And with the right financial plan therersquos no reason those dreams wonrsquot come true

ESTABLISHED FAMILY

Your priorities shift beyond expectation when you have little ones Itrsquos a time of long days and sometimes longer nights A time of laughter and joy tears and tantrums A time when you should cherish each milestone and live in the moment ndash but also think about tomorrowrsquos needs like starting that education policy sooner rather than later

NEW PARENTS

STUDENTItrsquos either a time to discover what you love doing or continue doing what you love At this stage you may have few or no dependants and some extra cash ndash enough to start that small investment or relook your current investments Whatever your goals today is the time to start

Me Myself and I becomes You Us and We This is a time to forge a partnership with the person who brings out the best in you A time to enjoy the little things in life ndash because one day yoursquoll look back and realise they really were the big things Like making a small decision to start an investment together ndash you will be amazed at how big the results can be

MARRIED

WORKING PROFESSIONAL

There are never enough hours in the day as a single parent and you often dream of growing an extra pair of arms just to carry the load Itrsquos a time when you become a professional juggler ndash school work play-dates meetings and finances ndash at least you know expert financial advice is just a phone call away

SINGLE PARENT

Around about now you might be learning who you really are and what you really want This is a time of late nights and long days About love and life and about money And with time on your side the lesson of compound interest could benefit you for years to come

Becoming disabled can alter your life significantly This can be an emotionally challenging time ndash having to adjust to a new way of doing things making peace with your changed lifestyle and mentally recovering from everything The financial impacts of a disability are an even bigger challenge if you havenrsquot prepared for it This is why getting the right financial advice and the right plan is important

Itrsquos a time when itrsquos natural to feel a sense of rejection You may even start doubting yourself and doubting your ability to find a new job Itrsquos a stressful time personally and financially so make sure you speak to an expert to get advice on moving forward taking your income limitations into account

DEATH

DISABILITY

SEVERE ILLNESS

RETRENCHMENT

We canrsquot prevent what is destined to happen to us The best thing we can do is financially plan for it if it happens Being diagnosed with a severe illness can disrupt your life so much more than you can imagine It can drain you emotionally mentally physically and financially Covering yourself financially against the impact can take one thing off your worry-list and allow you peace of mind during recovery

Itrsquos a time filled with sadness loss and anguish A time where you wish you could pinch yourself and wake up from the nightmare The death of a loved one can tear a family apart Itrsquos a time where emotions can cloud your decisions so itrsquos important to involve a financial adviser when dealing with the last will and testament

DETOUR

Most of us are busy living in the moment working catching up with friends and chasing the latest gadgets and fashionWe often forget to plan for tomorrow and protect what wersquove worked so hard for Life doesnrsquot always go as planned and unexpected things happen You could lose your job or business fall ill or even face death your own or that of a loved one Being financially prepared means that money will be the last thing that you need to worry about This is why Old Mutual promises to be with you through the good times and the bad

We make plans with our family and friends but we donrsquot know if wersquoll be around to make those plans a reality The greatest gift you can give to your loved ones is the ability for them to fulfil those plans even without you Death is not a pleasant thing to think about but like taxes it is the only other thing in life that is guaranteed This is why we need to plan for it

Old Mutual will help you make sure that your family remains financially stable when yoursquore no longer around They will know that you cared for them until the very end and made plans for them to realise their dreams and goals even when yoursquore gone You can make sure of this by getting life cover It will pay your family a tax-free lump sum when you die They can use this money to settle any debt that you leave behind cover estate duty costs or invest it so they can have an income to see to their monthly expenses

FAST FACT

In South Africa 383 families lose a loved one every day

Stats by ASISA (Association for Savings and Investments South Africa)

bull Will your family be burdened by your debt when you are no longer around (eg car bond credit student loan etc)

bull Does your family have enough money to pay for your funeral

bull Does your family have life cover too so you are not responsible for their expenses at death

bull How will your childrsquos education be funded when you die

FuneralDonrsquot underestimate the cost of a funeral ndash expenses for the coffin catering tombstone transport etc

Winding up your estate

bull Masterrsquos fees This is the fee payable to the Masterrsquos Office of the High Court which is the authority that handles deceased estates There is a formula to calculate this fee but the maximum amount payable is R600

bull Executorrsquos fees The executors of your estate are entitled to the following fees up to 399 of the gross value of the estate assets and up to 684 on income earned by the estate after date of death

bull Outstanding taxes Not only will all outstanding taxes have to be paid from the estate before it may be finalised but the executor will have to determine whether capital gains tax (CGT) is payable as death is a deemed disposal event for CGT purposes

bull Other debts (eg Bond overdraft credit store cards etc) In most instances there is still an outstanding amount due on the bond at death The executor will need to make sure that this debt is settled before distributing your assets

bull Rates and taxes A clearance certificate is needed to transfer property and this can only be issued once all rates and taxes are paid in advance

bull Conveyancing fees There is no transfer duty (tax) payable when a property is transferred from an estate into the name of the beneficiary but the conveyancer has to be paid for the transfer of the property

bull Maintenance and accrual claims Maintenance obligations usually do not fall away at death and the executor normally has to pay a lump sum to the claimant

ESTABLISHING YOUR LIFE STAGE

Itrsquos a time thatrsquos met with relief and excitement for some a time of apprehension for others A whole new chapter in your life retirement requires a big shift ndash one that many South Africans are insufficiently prepared for financially

RETIREDThis is your time to rediscover yourself your partner your hobbies and what really makes you tick Itrsquos a time to watch your kids spread their wings and make you proud You may be left with more time more money and less responsibilities ndash the perfect time to shift focus and invest just for yourself for a change

EMPTY NESTER

The kids are growing up and they never fail to remind you of how fast life is passing Finger-painting yesterday long-division today Itrsquos a time when you can dream together as a family looking forward to that holiday getting a puppy finding that dream home And with the right financial plan therersquos no reason those dreams wonrsquot come true

ESTABLISHED FAMILY

Your priorities shift beyond expectation when you have little ones Itrsquos a time of long days and sometimes longer nights A time of laughter and joy tears and tantrums A time when you should cherish each milestone and live in the moment ndash but also think about tomorrowrsquos needs like starting that education policy sooner rather than later

NEW PARENTS

STUDENTItrsquos either a time to discover what you love doing or continue doing what you love At this stage you may have few or no dependants and some extra cash ndash enough to start that small investment or relook your current investments Whatever your goals today is the time to start

Me Myself and I becomes You Us and We This is a time to forge a partnership with the person who brings out the best in you A time to enjoy the little things in life ndash because one day yoursquoll look back and realise they really were the big things Like making a small decision to start an investment together ndash you will be amazed at how big the results can be

MARRIED

WORKING PROFESSIONAL

There are never enough hours in the day as a single parent and you often dream of growing an extra pair of arms just to carry the load Itrsquos a time when you become a professional juggler ndash school work play-dates meetings and finances ndash at least you know expert financial advice is just a phone call away

SINGLE PARENT

Around about now you might be learning who you really are and what you really want This is a time of late nights and long days About love and life and about money And with time on your side the lesson of compound interest could benefit you for years to come

Becoming disabled can alter your life significantly This can be an emotionally challenging time ndash having to adjust to a new way of doing things making peace with your changed lifestyle and mentally recovering from everything The financial impacts of a disability are an even bigger challenge if you havenrsquot prepared for it This is why getting the right financial advice and the right plan is important

Itrsquos a time when itrsquos natural to feel a sense of rejection You may even start doubting yourself and doubting your ability to find a new job Itrsquos a stressful time personally and financially so make sure you speak to an expert to get advice on moving forward taking your income limitations into account

DEATH

DISABILITY

SEVERE ILLNESS

RETRENCHMENT

We canrsquot prevent what is destined to happen to us The best thing we can do is financially plan for it if it happens Being diagnosed with a severe illness can disrupt your life so much more than you can imagine It can drain you emotionally mentally physically and financially Covering yourself financially against the impact can take one thing off your worry-list and allow you peace of mind during recovery

Itrsquos a time filled with sadness loss and anguish A time where you wish you could pinch yourself and wake up from the nightmare The death of a loved one can tear a family apart Itrsquos a time where emotions can cloud your decisions so itrsquos important to involve a financial adviser when dealing with the last will and testament

DETOUR

Most of us are busy living in the moment working catching up with friends and chasing the latest gadgets and fashionWe often forget to plan for tomorrow and protect what wersquove worked so hard for Life doesnrsquot always go as planned and unexpected things happen You could lose your job or business fall ill or even face death your own or that of a loved one Being financially prepared means that money will be the last thing that you need to worry about This is why Old Mutual promises to be with you through the good times and the bad

We make plans with our family and friends but we donrsquot know if wersquoll be around to make those plans a reality The greatest gift you can give to your loved ones is the ability for them to fulfil those plans even without you Death is not a pleasant thing to think about but like taxes it is the only other thing in life that is guaranteed This is why we need to plan for it

Old Mutual will help you make sure that your family remains financially stable when yoursquore no longer around They will know that you cared for them until the very end and made plans for them to realise their dreams and goals even when yoursquore gone You can make sure of this by getting life cover It will pay your family a tax-free lump sum when you die They can use this money to settle any debt that you leave behind cover estate duty costs or invest it so they can have an income to see to their monthly expenses

FuneralDonrsquot underestimate the cost of a funeral ndash expenses for the coffin catering tombstone transport etc

Winding up your estate

bull Masterrsquos fees This is the fee payable to the Masterrsquos Office of the High Court which is the authority that handles deceased estates There is a formula to calculate this fee but the maximum amount payable is R600

bull Executorrsquos fees The executors of your estate are entitled to the following fees up to 399 of the gross value of the estate assets and up to 684 on income earned by the estate after date of death

bull Outstanding taxes Not only will all outstanding taxes have to be paid from the estate before it may be finalised but the executor will have to determine whether capital gains tax (CGT) is payable as death is a deemed disposal event for CGT purposes

bull Other debts (eg Bond overdraft credit store cards etc) In most instances there is still an outstanding amount due on the bond at death The executor will need to make sure that this debt is settled before distributing your assets

bull Rates and taxes A clearance certificate is needed to transfer property and this can only be issued once all rates and taxes are paid in advance

bull Conveyancing fees There is no transfer duty (tax) payable when a property is transferred from an estate into the name of the beneficiary but the conveyancer has to be paid for the transfer of the property

bull Maintenance and accrual claims Maintenance obligations usually do not fall away at death and the executor normally has to pay a lump sum to the claimant

ESTABLISHING YOUR LIFE STAGE

Itrsquos a time thatrsquos met with relief and excitement for some a time of apprehension for others A whole new chapter in your life retirement requires a big shift ndash one that many South Africans are insufficiently prepared for financially

RETIREDThis is your time to rediscover yourself your partner your hobbies and what really makes you tick Itrsquos a time to watch your kids spread their wings and make you proud You may be left with more time more money and less responsibilities ndash the perfect time to shift focus and invest just for yourself for a change

EMPTY NESTER

The kids are growing up and they never fail to remind you of how fast life is passing Finger-painting yesterday long-division today Itrsquos a time when you can dream together as a family looking forward to that holiday getting a puppy finding that dream home And with the right financial plan therersquos no reason those dreams wonrsquot come true

ESTABLISHED FAMILY

Your priorities shift beyond expectation when you have little ones Itrsquos a time of long days and sometimes longer nights A time of laughter and joy tears and tantrums A time when you should cherish each milestone and live in the moment ndash but also think about tomorrowrsquos needs like starting that education policy sooner rather than later

NEW PARENTS

STUDENTItrsquos either a time to discover what you love doing or continue doing what you love At this stage you may have few or no dependants and some extra cash ndash enough to start that small investment or relook your current investments Whatever your goals today is the time to start

Me Myself and I becomes You Us and We This is a time to forge a partnership with the person who brings out the best in you A time to enjoy the little things in life ndash because one day yoursquoll look back and realise they really were the big things Like making a small decision to start an investment together ndash you will be amazed at how big the results can be

MARRIED

WORKING PROFESSIONAL

There are never enough hours in the day as a single parent and you often dream of growing an extra pair of arms just to carry the load Itrsquos a time when you become a professional juggler ndash school work play-dates meetings and finances ndash at least you know expert financial advice is just a phone call away

SINGLE PARENT

Around about now you might be learning who you really are and what you really want This is a time of late nights and long days About love and life and about money And with time on your side the lesson of compound interest could benefit you for years to come

Becoming disabled can alter your life significantly This can be an emotionally challenging time ndash having to adjust to a new way of doing things making peace with your changed lifestyle and mentally recovering from everything The financial impacts of a disability are an even bigger challenge if you havenrsquot prepared for it This is why getting the right financial advice and the right plan is important

Itrsquos a time when itrsquos natural to feel a sense of rejection You may even start doubting yourself and doubting your ability to find a new job Itrsquos a stressful time personally and financially so make sure you speak to an expert to get advice on moving forward taking your income limitations into account

DEATH

DISABILITY

SEVERE ILLNESS

RETRENCHMENT

We canrsquot prevent what is destined to happen to us The best thing we can do is financially plan for it if it happens Being diagnosed with a severe illness can disrupt your life so much more than you can imagine It can drain you emotionally mentally physically and financially Covering yourself financially against the impact can take one thing off your worry-list and allow you peace of mind during recovery

Itrsquos a time filled with sadness loss and anguish A time where you wish you could pinch yourself and wake up from the nightmare The death of a loved one can tear a family apart Itrsquos a time where emotions can cloud your decisions so itrsquos important to involve a financial adviser when dealing with the last will and testament

DETOUR

Most of us are busy living in the moment working catching up with friends and chasing the latest gadgets and fashionWe often forget to plan for tomorrow and protect what wersquove worked so hard for Life doesnrsquot always go as planned and unexpected things happen You could lose your job or business fall ill or even face death your own or that of a loved one Being financially prepared means that money will be the last thing that you need to worry about This is why Old Mutual promises to be with you through the good times and the bad

Winding up your estate

bull Masterrsquos fees This is the fee payable to the Masterrsquos Office of the High Court which is the authority that handles deceased estates There is a formula to calculate this fee but the maximum amount payable is R600

bull Executorrsquos fees The executors of your estate are entitled to the following fees up to 399 of the gross value of the estate assets and up to 684 on income earned by the estate after date of death

bull Outstanding taxes Not only will all outstanding taxes have to be paid from the estate before it may be finalised but the executor will have to determine whether capital gains tax (CGT) is payable as death is a deemed disposal event for CGT purposes

bull Other debts (eg Bond overdraft credit store cards etc) In most instances there is still an outstanding amount due on the bond at death The executor will need to make sure that this debt is settled before distributing your assets

bull Rates and taxes A clearance certificate is needed to transfer property and this can only be issued once all rates and taxes are paid in advance

bull Conveyancing fees There is no transfer duty (tax) payable when a property is transferred from an estate into the name of the beneficiary but the conveyancer has to be paid for the transfer of the property

bull Maintenance and accrual claims Maintenance obligations usually do not fall away at death and the executor normally has to pay a lump sum to the claimant

ESTABLISHING YOUR LIFE STAGE

Itrsquos a time thatrsquos met with relief and excitement for some a time of apprehension for others A whole new chapter in your life retirement requires a big shift ndash one that many South Africans are insufficiently prepared for financially

RETIREDThis is your time to rediscover yourself your partner your hobbies and what really makes you tick Itrsquos a time to watch your kids spread their wings and make you proud You may be left with more time more money and less responsibilities ndash the perfect time to shift focus and invest just for yourself for a change

EMPTY NESTER

The kids are growing up and they never fail to remind you of how fast life is passing Finger-painting yesterday long-division today Itrsquos a time when you can dream together as a family looking forward to that holiday getting a puppy finding that dream home And with the right financial plan therersquos no reason those dreams wonrsquot come true

ESTABLISHED FAMILY

Your priorities shift beyond expectation when you have little ones Itrsquos a time of long days and sometimes longer nights A time of laughter and joy tears and tantrums A time when you should cherish each milestone and live in the moment ndash but also think about tomorrowrsquos needs like starting that education policy sooner rather than later

NEW PARENTS

STUDENTItrsquos either a time to discover what you love doing or continue doing what you love At this stage you may have few or no dependants and some extra cash ndash enough to start that small investment or relook your current investments Whatever your goals today is the time to start

Me Myself and I becomes You Us and We This is a time to forge a partnership with the person who brings out the best in you A time to enjoy the little things in life ndash because one day yoursquoll look back and realise they really were the big things Like making a small decision to start an investment together ndash you will be amazed at how big the results can be

MARRIED

WORKING PROFESSIONAL

There are never enough hours in the day as a single parent and you often dream of growing an extra pair of arms just to carry the load Itrsquos a time when you become a professional juggler ndash school work play-dates meetings and finances ndash at least you know expert financial advice is just a phone call away

SINGLE PARENT

Around about now you might be learning who you really are and what you really want This is a time of late nights and long days About love and life and about money And with time on your side the lesson of compound interest could benefit you for years to come

Becoming disabled can alter your life significantly This can be an emotionally challenging time ndash having to adjust to a new way of doing things making peace with your changed lifestyle and mentally recovering from everything The financial impacts of a disability are an even bigger challenge if you havenrsquot prepared for it This is why getting the right financial advice and the right plan is important

Itrsquos a time when itrsquos natural to feel a sense of rejection You may even start doubting yourself and doubting your ability to find a new job Itrsquos a stressful time personally and financially so make sure you speak to an expert to get advice on moving forward taking your income limitations into account

DEATH

DISABILITY

SEVERE ILLNESS

RETRENCHMENT

We canrsquot prevent what is destined to happen to us The best thing we can do is financially plan for it if it happens Being diagnosed with a severe illness can disrupt your life so much more than you can imagine It can drain you emotionally mentally physically and financially Covering yourself financially against the impact can take one thing off your worry-list and allow you peace of mind during recovery

Itrsquos a time filled with sadness loss and anguish A time where you wish you could pinch yourself and wake up from the nightmare The death of a loved one can tear a family apart Itrsquos a time where emotions can cloud your decisions so itrsquos important to involve a financial adviser when dealing with the last will and testament

DETOUR

Most of us are busy living in the moment working catching up with friends and chasing the latest gadgets and fashionWe often forget to plan for tomorrow and protect what wersquove worked so hard for Life doesnrsquot always go as planned and unexpected things happen You could lose your job or business fall ill or even face death your own or that of a loved one Being financially prepared means that money will be the last thing that you need to worry about This is why Old Mutual promises to be with you through the good times and the bad

We make plans with our family and friends but we donrsquot know if wersquoll be around to make those plans a reality The greatest gift you can give to your loved ones is the ability for them to fulfil those plans even without you Death is not a pleasant thing to think about but like taxes it is the only other thing in life that is guaranteed This is why we need to plan for it

Old Mutual will help you make sure that your family remains financially stable when yoursquore no longer around They will know that you cared for them until the very end and made plans for them to realise their dreams and goals even when yoursquore gone You can make sure of this by getting life cover It will pay your family a tax-free lump sum when you die They can use this money to settle any debt that you leave behind cover estate duty costs or invest it so they can have an income to see to their monthly expenses

FuneralDonrsquot underestimate the cost of a funeral ndash expenses for the coffin catering tombstone transport etc

Winding up your estate

bull Masterrsquos fees This is the fee payable to the Masterrsquos Office of the High Court which is the authority that handles deceased estates There is a formula to calculate this fee but the maximum amount payable is R600

bull Executorrsquos fees The executors of your estate are entitled to the following fees up to 399 of the gross value of the estate assets and up to 684 on income earned by the estate after date of death

bull Outstanding taxes Not only will all outstanding taxes have to be paid from the estate before it may be finalised but the executor will have to determine whether capital gains tax (CGT) is payable as death is a deemed disposal event for CGT purposes

bull Other debts (eg Bond overdraft credit store cards etc) In most instances there is still an outstanding amount due on the bond at death The executor will need to make sure that this debt is settled before distributing your assets

bull Rates and taxes A clearance certificate is needed to transfer property and this can only be issued once all rates and taxes are paid in advance

bull Conveyancing fees There is no transfer duty (tax) payable when a property is transferred from an estate into the name of the beneficiary but the conveyancer has to be paid for the transfer of the property

ESTABLISHING YOUR LIFE STAGE

Itrsquos a time thatrsquos met with relief and excitement for some a time of apprehension for others A whole new chapter in your life retirement requires a big shift ndash one that many South Africans are insufficiently prepared for financially

RETIREDThis is your time to rediscover yourself your partner your hobbies and what really makes you tick Itrsquos a time to watch your kids spread their wings and make you proud You may be left with more time more money and less responsibilities ndash the perfect time to shift focus and invest just for yourself for a change

EMPTY NESTER

The kids are growing up and they never fail to remind you of how fast life is passing Finger-painting yesterday long-division today Itrsquos a time when you can dream together as a family looking forward to that holiday getting a puppy finding that dream home And with the right financial plan therersquos no reason those dreams wonrsquot come true

ESTABLISHED FAMILY

Your priorities shift beyond expectation when you have little ones Itrsquos a time of long days and sometimes longer nights A time of laughter and joy tears and tantrums A time when you should cherish each milestone and live in the moment ndash but also think about tomorrowrsquos needs like starting that education policy sooner rather than later

NEW PARENTS

STUDENTItrsquos either a time to discover what you love doing or continue doing what you love At this stage you may have few or no dependants and some extra cash ndash enough to start that small investment or relook your current investments Whatever your goals today is the time to start

Me Myself and I becomes You Us and We This is a time to forge a partnership with the person who brings out the best in you A time to enjoy the little things in life ndash because one day yoursquoll look back and realise they really were the big things Like making a small decision to start an investment together ndash you will be amazed at how big the results can be

MARRIED

WORKING PROFESSIONAL

There are never enough hours in the day as a single parent and you often dream of growing an extra pair of arms just to carry the load Itrsquos a time when you become a professional juggler ndash school work play-dates meetings and finances ndash at least you know expert financial advice is just a phone call away

SINGLE PARENT

Around about now you might be learning who you really are and what you really want This is a time of late nights and long days About love and life and about money And with time on your side the lesson of compound interest could benefit you for years to come

Becoming disabled can alter your life significantly This can be an emotionally challenging time ndash having to adjust to a new way of doing things making peace with your changed lifestyle and mentally recovering from everything The financial impacts of a disability are an even bigger challenge if you havenrsquot prepared for it This is why getting the right financial advice and the right plan is important

Itrsquos a time when itrsquos natural to feel a sense of rejection You may even start doubting yourself and doubting your ability to find a new job Itrsquos a stressful time personally and financially so make sure you speak to an expert to get advice on moving forward taking your income limitations into account

DEATH

DISABILITY

SEVERE ILLNESS

RETRENCHMENT

We canrsquot prevent what is destined to happen to us The best thing we can do is financially plan for it if it happens Being diagnosed with a severe illness can disrupt your life so much more than you can imagine It can drain you emotionally mentally physically and financially Covering yourself financially against the impact can take one thing off your worry-list and allow you peace of mind during recovery

Itrsquos a time filled with sadness loss and anguish A time where you wish you could pinch yourself and wake up from the nightmare The death of a loved one can tear a family apart Itrsquos a time where emotions can cloud your decisions so itrsquos important to involve a financial adviser when dealing with the last will and testament

DETOUR

Most of us are busy living in the moment working catching up with friends and chasing the latest gadgets and fashionWe often forget to plan for tomorrow and protect what wersquove worked so hard for Life doesnrsquot always go as planned and unexpected things happen You could lose your job or business fall ill or even face death your own or that of a loved one Being financially prepared means that money will be the last thing that you need to worry about This is why Old Mutual promises to be with you through the good times and the bad

Winding up your estate

bull Masterrsquos fees This is the fee payable to the Masterrsquos Office of the High Court which is the authority that handles deceased estates There is a formula to calculate this fee but the maximum amount payable is R600

bull Executorrsquos fees The executors of your estate are entitled to the following fees up to 399 of the gross value of the estate assets and up to 684 on income earned by the estate after date of death

bull Outstanding taxes Not only will all outstanding taxes have to be paid from the estate before it may be finalised but the executor will have to determine whether capital gains tax (CGT) is payable as death is a deemed disposal event for CGT purposes

bull Other debts (eg Bond overdraft credit store cards etc) In most instances there is still an outstanding amount due on the bond at death The executor will need to make sure that this debt is settled before distributing your assets

bull Rates and taxes A clearance certificate is needed to transfer property and this can only be issued once all rates and taxes are paid in advance

bull Conveyancing fees There is no transfer duty (tax) payable when a property is transferred from an estate into the name of the beneficiary but the conveyancer has to be paid for the transfer of the property

bull Maintenance and accrual claims Maintenance obligations usually do not fall away at death and the executor normally has to pay a lump sum to the claimant

ESTABLISHING YOUR LIFE STAGE

Itrsquos a time thatrsquos met with relief and excitement for some a time of apprehension for others A whole new chapter in your life retirement requires a big shift ndash one that many South Africans are insufficiently prepared for financially

RETIREDThis is your time to rediscover yourself your partner your hobbies and what really makes you tick Itrsquos a time to watch your kids spread their wings and make you proud You may be left with more time more money and less responsibilities ndash the perfect time to shift focus and invest just for yourself for a change

EMPTY NESTER

The kids are growing up and they never fail to remind you of how fast life is passing Finger-painting yesterday long-division today Itrsquos a time when you can dream together as a family looking forward to that holiday getting a puppy finding that dream home And with the right financial plan therersquos no reason those dreams wonrsquot come true

ESTABLISHED FAMILY

Your priorities shift beyond expectation when you have little ones Itrsquos a time of long days and sometimes longer nights A time of laughter and joy tears and tantrums A time when you should cherish each milestone and live in the moment ndash but also think about tomorrowrsquos needs like starting that education policy sooner rather than later

NEW PARENTS

STUDENTItrsquos either a time to discover what you love doing or continue doing what you love At this stage you may have few or no dependants and some extra cash ndash enough to start that small investment or relook your current investments Whatever your goals today is the time to start

Me Myself and I becomes You Us and We This is a time to forge a partnership with the person who brings out the best in you A time to enjoy the little things in life ndash because one day yoursquoll look back and realise they really were the big things Like making a small decision to start an investment together ndash you will be amazed at how big the results can be

MARRIED

WORKING PROFESSIONAL

There are never enough hours in the day as a single parent and you often dream of growing an extra pair of arms just to carry the load Itrsquos a time when you become a professional juggler ndash school work play-dates meetings and finances ndash at least you know expert financial advice is just a phone call away

SINGLE PARENT

Around about now you might be learning who you really are and what you really want This is a time of late nights and long days About love and life and about money And with time on your side the lesson of compound interest could benefit you for years to come

Becoming disabled can alter your life significantly This can be an emotionally challenging time ndash having to adjust to a new way of doing things making peace with your changed lifestyle and mentally recovering from everything The financial impacts of a disability are an even bigger challenge if you havenrsquot prepared for it This is why getting the right financial advice and the right plan is important

Itrsquos a time when itrsquos natural to feel a sense of rejection You may even start doubting yourself and doubting your ability to find a new job Itrsquos a stressful time personally and financially so make sure you speak to an expert to get advice on moving forward taking your income limitations into account

DEATH

DISABILITY

SEVERE ILLNESS

RETRENCHMENT

We canrsquot prevent what is destined to happen to us The best thing we can do is financially plan for it if it happens Being diagnosed with a severe illness can disrupt your life so much more than you can imagine It can drain you emotionally mentally physically and financially Covering yourself financially against the impact can take one thing off your worry-list and allow you peace of mind during recovery

Itrsquos a time filled with sadness loss and anguish A time where you wish you could pinch yourself and wake up from the nightmare The death of a loved one can tear a family apart Itrsquos a time where emotions can cloud your decisions so itrsquos important to involve a financial adviser when dealing with the last will and testament

DETOUR

Most of us are busy living in the moment working catching up with friends and chasing the latest gadgets and fashionWe often forget to plan for tomorrow and protect what wersquove worked so hard for Life doesnrsquot always go as planned and unexpected things happen You could lose your job or business fall ill or even face death your own or that of a loved one Being financially prepared means that money will be the last thing that you need to worry about This is why Old Mutual promises to be with you through the good times and the bad

FuneralDonrsquot underestimate the cost of a funeral ndash expenses for the coffin catering tombstone transport etc

Winding up your estate

bull Masterrsquos fees This is the fee payable to the Masterrsquos Office of the High Court which is the authority that handles deceased estates There is a formula to calculate this fee but the maximum amount payable is R600

bull Executorrsquos fees The executors of your estate are entitled to the following fees up to 399 of the gross value of the estate assets and up to 684 on income earned by the estate after date of death

bull Outstanding taxes Not only will all outstanding taxes have to be paid from the estate before it may be finalised but the executor will have to determine whether capital gains tax (CGT) is payable as death is a deemed disposal event for CGT purposes

bull Other debts (eg Bond overdraft credit store cards etc) In most instances there is still an outstanding amount due on the bond at death The executor will need to make sure that this debt is settled before distributing your assets

bull Rates and taxes A clearance certificate is needed to transfer property and this can only be issued once all rates and taxes are paid in advance

bull Conveyancing fees There is no transfer duty (tax) payable when a property is transferred from an estate into the name of the beneficiary but the conveyancer has to be paid for the transfer of the property

EMPTY NESTER

The kids are growing up and they never fail to remind you of how fast life is passing Finger-painting yesterday long-division today Itrsquos a time when you can dream together as a family looking forward to that holiday getting a puppy finding that dream home And with the right financial plan therersquos no reason those dreams wonrsquot come true

ESTABLISHED FAMILY

Your priorities shift beyond expectation when you have little ones Itrsquos a time of long days and sometimes longer nights A time of laughter and joy tears and tantrums A time when you should cherish each milestone and live in the moment ndash but also think about tomorrowrsquos needs like starting that education policy sooner rather than later

NEW PARENTS

STUDENTItrsquos either a time to discover what you love doing or continue doing what you love At this stage you may have few or no dependants and some extra cash ndash enough to start that small investment or relook your current investments Whatever your goals today is the time to start

Me Myself and I becomes You Us and We This is a time to forge a partnership with the person who brings out the best in you A time to enjoy the little things in life ndash because one day yoursquoll look back and realise they really were the big things Like making a small decision to start an investment together ndash you will be amazed at how big the results can be

RETRENCHMENT

We canrsquot prevent what is destined to happen to us The best thing we can do is financially plan for it if it happens Being diagnosed with a severe illness can disrupt your life so much more than you can imagine It can drain you emotionally mentally physically and financially Covering yourself financially against the impact can take one thing off your worry-list and allow you peace of mind during recovery

Itrsquos a time filled with sadness loss and anguish A time where you wish you could pinch yourself and wake up from the nightmare The death of a loved one can tear a family apart Itrsquos a time where emotions can cloud your decisions so itrsquos important to involve a financial adviser when dealing with the last will and testament

DETOUR

Most of us are busy living in the moment working catching up with friends and chasing the latest gadgets and fashionWe often forget to plan for tomorrow and protect what wersquove worked so hard for Life doesnrsquot always go as planned and unexpected things happen You could lose your job or business fall ill or even face death your own or that of a loved one Being financially prepared means that money will be the last thing that you need to worry about This is why Old Mutual promises to be with you through the good times and the bad

FuneralDonrsquot underestimate the cost of a funeral ndash expenses for the coffin catering tombstone transport etc

Winding up your estate

bull Masterrsquos fees This is the fee payable to the Masterrsquos Office of the High Court which is the authority that handles deceased estates There is a formula to calculate this fee but the maximum amount payable is R600

bull Executorrsquos fees The executors of your estate are entitled to the following fees up to 399 of the gross value of the estate assets and up to 684 on income earned by the estate after date of death

bull Outstanding taxes Not only will all outstanding taxes have to be paid from the estate before it may be finalised but the executor will have to determine whether capital gains tax (CGT) is payable as death is a deemed disposal event for CGT purposes

bull Other debts (eg Bond overdraft credit store cards etc) In most instances there is still an outstanding amount due on the bond at death The executor will need to make sure that this debt is settled before distributing your assets

bull Rates and taxes A clearance certificate is needed to transfer property and this can only be issued once all rates and taxes are paid in advance

bull Conveyancing fees There is no transfer duty (tax) payable when a property is transferred from an estate into the name of the beneficiary but the conveyancer has to be paid for the transfer of the property

bull Maintenance and accrual claims Maintenance obligations usually do not fall away at death and the executor normally has to pay a lump sum to the claimant

FuneralDonrsquot underestimate the cost of a funeral ndash expenses for the coffin catering tombstone transport etc

Winding up your estate

bull Masterrsquos fees This is the fee payable to the Masterrsquos Office of the High Court which is the authority that handles deceased estates There is a formula to calculate this fee but the maximum amount payable is R600

bull Executorrsquos fees The executors of your estate are entitled to the following fees up to 399 of the gross value of the estate assets and up to 684 on income earned by the estate after date of death

bull Outstanding taxes Not only will all outstanding taxes have to be paid from the estate before it may be finalised but the executor will have to determine whether capital gains tax (CGT) is payable as death is a deemed disposal event for CGT purposes

bull Other debts (eg Bond overdraft credit store cards etc) In most instances there is still an outstanding amount due on the bond at death The executor will need to make sure that this debt is settled before distributing your assets

bull Rates and taxes A clearance certificate is needed to transfer property and this can only be issued once all rates and taxes are paid in advance

bull Conveyancing fees There is no transfer duty (tax) payable when a property is transferred from an estate into the name of the beneficiary but the conveyancer has to be paid for the transfer of the property

bull Maintenance and accrual claims Maintenance obligations usually do not fall away at death and the executor normally has to pay a lump sum to the claimant
