Today is Super Booster Day<\/a>! It’s the day Australians are asked to make a pledge to pay themselves forward. As a proud supporter of the day, we have a question for you: do you plan on saving more for your future but find life keeps getting in the way?<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"With almost half of Australians reportedly living pay-cheque to pay-cheque^<\/sup><\/span>, it seems many of us will struggle to put our saving plans into practice.<\/p>\n

Building wealth doesn\u2019t have to be complicated or mean making big sacrifices. Adding just $10 extra per week to your super could significantly boost your savings for the future. The more you can contribute, the more this effect is multiplied by compound interest as your savings grow.<\/p>\n

Just look at the difference regular contributions could make to your super balance.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
