      Don't think that it's not for a reason. Research the beginnings of governemnt education, its indoctrination not education.
      It's funny because a grade 7 from 100 years ago is far smarter than the majority of high school graduates from now.

    Whether you like Superannuation or not it is the system we have in place now and there is no changing that. The thing everyone needs to realise is that Super is a system that you need to engage with to get the most out of it. As someone working in the industry what i recommend is that you call your super fund as i know for a fact that many fund will give financial advice on the phone for free.

    Clearly, everyone who is contributing to any form of Social Security or National Insurance needs to learn about the benefits, the costs, the risks, and the options available. It is very risky to be putting your money into something for years or even for decades without asking any questions, or seeking any education or independent advice. Why do most people spend more time planning a 2-week vacation than a 20-year retirement?

    I'am 65 years young. Ready to be kick out.
    After 30 years of work my super it's not good enough.
    Royal Commission actions again those super companies nothing happens, no-one was punish. No one was send to jail, to send a message to crooks. They get their wages over a couples of months, but not changes happened.
    I believe the most you ask to financial advisers, the most you losse. In my case I trust to my super company, and the only thing I know is they get better money than me, for administrations fees.
    Governments know that. And the only thing I can do it, is don't vote for them. It's too late for me to do something. I know i'am not the only one we are millions in the same position. Solution to me is maybe back where
    I came from. It's sad after more than 30 years of work.

    Superannuation should be frozen against any and all taxes full stop! It is meant to be a nest egg for retirement the recipient worked hard for. Why is superannuation eaten up by fees and taxes? Whats the point? Fluctuations in economy, banking and Government agencies changing laws and fees. Again, Australian Workers are being violated and robbed every day! It needs to STOP! Maybe these "promise me more" agencies should FOOT THE BILL!

      Unfortunately this is a huge issue. Fees are just too high should be capped at no more than 0.1% and should be tax free. There are talks of increasing tax on super which labor will do via franking credits. Our future is stolen from us by taxes

    • @funksoul123
      @funksoul123 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Super pays taxes at 15% because the contributions are treated as tax deductions. Your work claims 100% of the contributions and is in the case of a company avoids paying 30% tax for that deduction.
      Likewise if you are making personal contributions your marginal rate might be 45%, claiming a tax deduction for that money means it's only taxed at 15% in the superfund.
      The earnings of your fund are taxed at 15% and then when you draw a pension the earnings and pension income is tax free.
      You think the contributions and earnings should all be tax free and then the pensions tax free, if you think that isn't going to benefit the wealthier more then you're mistaken.

    Why on earth would someone ever leave an industry fund. 2 minutes research shows they have lower fees and better returns than crappy bank run retail fund. Also why run multiple accounts when 5 minutes on "mygov" they can be consolidated. People need to take some responsibility.

  • @rayg5604
    @rayg5604 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    One key point to remember is that there is no free lunch, Be very careful putting your money into an industry fund and being charged Lower fees becuase these lower fees come at a cost, the investments are not activley managed and many people have the potential for severe losses if we move into a recession or another GFC. I understand everyone seems to feel enlightened after the royal comission, however i would argue that mnay people still have no idea what they are invested in.

  • @billhackett6675

    The answer is not always to change to another super fund. Most super funds have many investment choices and one may suit you better. Markets go up and down. To reduce risk never put all your eggs into one basket. Eg a SMSF investing in one property earning income from one tenant. Even though most of you feel Financial Planners are evil, there are many who can help you, so that you don't live with regret at age 67, because you did not know better. I am a Financial Planner and I am a good person. We are not free or cheap, but we are better value than the free advice you get from a call centre employee
