Mark is 33 and Andrea is 31. They have been married for three years and both have worked in their respective legal professions since graduating from university. Mark currently earns an annual salary package of $80,000 (plus 10% employer superannuation contributions). Andrea is on a package of $115,000 per annum (plus 10% employer superannuation contribution). Neither of them packages any fringe benefits nor receives a bonus. After saving towards a deposit for their first home and receiving some help from Mark's parents, Mark and Andrea are now the proud owners of a three-bedroom semi-detached home in Nice Suburb, Sydney, which they purchased five years ago for $820,000 with a $200,000 deposit in April 2008. This is Mark and Andrea's first visit to a financial planner, but they feel it is time to see an expert now that they have bought a house and married. They want to turn their focus to building wealth and building their savings for retirement. They both want to retire when Mark is 58 (Andrea will be 56). They are happy with their home purchase and wish is to increase their investment savings and their savings for retirement. In addition, Andrea has decided to work reduced hours in around twelve months' time, so she can focus on postgraduate studies. Her income will fall to $65,000 per annum (plus superannuation guarantee) from that date. They would like to start a family after Andrea completes her studies, which is at least three years away. They plan for Andrea to be the full-time carer and Mark will continue to focus on his career at the law firm (where he is looking to make partner level). The clients have no personal insurances.
