    Superannuation Discussion + market volatility

    Don’t know how many people but there were 80000 who had more than 3 million in super. Has to be a lot more people with assets in super pensions also>1 million Between 2.5-3 million people qualify for Sapto so it is not an insignificant amount. Tinkering with super is not a bad idea though it is...

    Superannuation Discussion + market volatility

    Been thinking about this a lot. I am comfortably retired with decent assets but only pay a few thousand dollars in tax per year. I have some capital gains that will eventually be taxed. Per this paper https://grattan.edu.au/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/879-Age-of-entitlement.pdf ,Sapto and the...

    I think they are looking to offload their retail banking business. My wife retains a share account and an attached bank account and getting 6 figure funds out of them was painful with 4 phone calls involved ,so I would not recommend them.

    Superannuation Discussion + market volatility

    Watched a SMSF seminar and the div296 was discussed. Apparently the decision on taxing the unrealised capital gain was because the tax was more easily calculated based on things already reported in yearly returns. They compared it to div 293. Also there is supposedly an option to pay the tax...

    Superannuation Discussion + market volatility

    One thought that comforts me as a mere mortal superranuant (way below 3million) is that those mega funds will be subject to the 17% death tax ! I don’t understand why people put farms into their SMSF as being a lumpy investment it creates all sorts of problems in regard to the death tax and...

    Sister in law turned 60 and her ?Hesta fund just automatically downgraded her from aggressive to balanced ! May work to her advantage in the short term if she is lucky but it’s her only investment. Kudos to her for being in the aggressive strategy in the first place.

    Superannuation Discussion + market volatility

    I think there are some complicated calculations that would need to be done and the ability to bring forward contributions to the 360000 every 3 years is dependant on your total superannuation balance , which you imply is close to the limits. I suspect you need specialist advice which some...
