If you have been money savvy preparing to move, selling UK property and assets you can’t bring with you, clearing debt, are about to receive a lump sum and monthly pension for completing your service obligations you can make some grand plans for arrival in Australia. 

A campervan, a jet ski, motorbike or car of your dreams? 

Or… keep some aside invested in Plenti for a future house purchase in Australia utilising ADF HPAS  and DHOAS. Looking into buying a new, modest, fuel efficient car with a long warranty outright is also a smart choice. Especially if you plan to put aside or invest money from each pay packet for your future car when that one’s warranty expires.

If you weren’t so money savvy till this point, the moneysavingexpert would advise using your lump sum to clear all or many of your debts in the UK. Arrive in Australia ready to create a new, money smarter you, with better long-term prospects, less stress and more holidays.

If you have decided to move to the ADF prior to reaping the benefit of a regular pension income, you still have great opportunities ahead with improved terms and conditions, medical, pay, allowances and amazing locations to enjoy when not in cams.
