Many working South Africans assume that wills are only necessary for the wealthy - but that misconception carries real consequences. In fact, roughly 70% of employed individuals don't have a will in place. Whether your assets are modest, a savings account, a vehicle, or retirement fund benefits - or substantial, having a valid will ensures your wishes are respected and your heirs are protected.

Many believe that wills are for rich people. As a result, the Master of the High Court reported recently that about 70% of working South Africans don’t have wills. You need a will as soon as you own some kind of asset, even if it’s only a bank savings account.

"Remember when your biggest decision for your children going to school was what to pack them for lunch? 😅

Fast forward to their Matric prelims... and suddenly the big decisions about their future feels very real.

Right now, thousands of Grade 12 learners are focused on exams, but for many families, it's also a time of important conversations about what's next.

University, college, a first job, moving away from home, transport, accommodation... these milestones often come with major financial commitments.

The good news? The best time to start planning for your future Grade 12 child is now.

Whether you're a parent or guardian, having honest conversations about future goals and the costs involved can help reduce stress and create confidence for the journey ahead.

A common challenge for many SMEs isn't a lack of ambition. It's a lack of financial visibility.

Economic uncertainty, changing market conditions and rising costs make financial discipline more important than ever. One of the simplest ways to strengthen your business is to revisit the fundamentals:

• Build and update a financial roadmap
• Stay on top of bookkeeping and tax planning
• Monitor cash flow consistently
• Manage debt strategically
• Keep personal and business finances separate

As the saying goes, "A failure to plan is a plan to fail."

Taking time to review these areas can help business owners move from simply surviving to planning for sustainable growth.
