    For those interested into starting your own SMSF, make sure you do a lot of research. In order to offset the yearly compliance costs (and assuming you can yield 5% return), you would need about $100k seed money in your SMSF to break even. Obviously, everyone’s financial circumstances and investment intent for their SMSF differs. I have seen simple investment activities with little book-keeping incurring $3.5K in yearly compliance fees. The more extreme ones can go to $10K+.

    In all honesty, you don’t need to attend these SMSF events. Most of the exhibitors would be orientated to investment property that doesn’t yield much versus the risks involved.

    As usual, my 2 cents. (I am not a financial planner, but have become quite good at making my lazy money work hard for me).

    I am currently winding up my recently deceased FIL’s smsf.

    I have some words of advice to those contemplating starting their own.

    “Don’t do it.”

    1. Compliance’s cost are about $800 a year with esuper.
    2. Paperwork paperwork paperwork
    3. Their are lots of premix offered by Superfunds to meet your life stage.
    4. It’s hard even for professionals to beat the market consistently the main thing you can do it reduce your fees. This makes a non actively managed option like index based funds a more attractive option as they have the lowest fees.Hostplus balanced index fund has one of the cheapest fees out their.

    Another word of advice make sure that you have given your superfund a binding nomination form. Your super can decide who they give the money too. A binding nomination makes sure they give it to who you want.
