Some people make the mistake of thinking they are ready for retirement when they are not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey take the leap but find out retirement is not as carefree as they imagined, primarily because their retirement plan, or a haphazard version of one, had critical gaps and didn\u2019t sufficiently cover their needs and wants,\u201d said Sechele.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Business Development Manager Banomile Hlatshwayo said they would like to introduce the Lihawu Umbrella Pension and Provident Fund. This is a comprehensive suite of employee benefits for a business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGetting close to putting your work life behind you, make sure you give all of the financial implications of that big step a thorough analysis. It is all about your lifestyle Know what you want in retirement, where you want to go, what you want to do, and most importantly, how you want to feel when you do it confident, secure, free and in control,\u201d said Hlatshwayo.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
