    Banks ditch cash as customer experience sparks concern

    They are purely reacting to what CUSTOMERS WANT, been happening for decades. The Banks do not make the market, the customers drive the market, people are not using cash. There are still plenty of ATM's around with no one there, I never see queues with them now, except the odd occasion in busy...

    Retiring But Not Relaxing: Australia’s Age Pension Maze

    You don't need a financial adviser, in fact I would not recommend one. They look after themselves first, it costs you a lot of money and you can do it yourself online. Just have someone show you how, even go into the Centrelink office and use their computers.
