<p>Editorial Notes: Retirees in Australia are feeling the same fears as their counterparts in the United States. The full effects of the credit crunch on superannuation will not be seen for years to come. On top of this is the fall in property prices, rising costs of living and the steep drop in the stock market. What are your concerns for the future and retirement? Do you think you will have enough money to retire with? What are some of the <a title="Comapre finance deals" href="http://personal-finance.com.au/">financial</a> losses Australians have felt over the past few months? We would like to hear your comments about how the credit crisis has effected your savings and plans on retirement.<br />
