    Don’t let your super outlast you! Aussie seniors urged to spend (and save) wisely

    Super is too bloody complex, should not be so hard to access our own money after working so hard for decades, with so many restrictive & controlling rules! And so many greedy sharks wanting to get their mitts on our money! And as far as comparing funds fees, etc- it is way too hard to...

    First my passport and licence details were secretly compromised. Next someone stole my identity

    Horrifying & scarey that it can happen so easily & thru no fault of our own! There isn't enough consequence to businesses (& a severe lack of assistance from banks or police) who do not do enough to protect our data in this country, thus Australia is a prime target for fraud of this type! No...

    Been seeing the same GP for years? This one policy might mean you can’t go back

    Cant help wondering if this is more about Medicare system being exhausted by our now excessively high immigration numbers as per other infrastructure, housing crisis, etc! Systems cannot cope, it's ridiculous! when our own people miss out & get treated so poorly!

    Young Aussies are being made to choose: super or chasing their dreams—what would you do?

    Yes I totally understand this situation & how small business owners may not have super as I had a garden/,maintenance business 27 yrs ago (& had to support a young family) mostly as a single mum & reality is there wasn't always enough $'s to cover everything & whilst basic food was there for my...

    Seniors who call Shark Bay in Western Australia home trade caravans for a house

    Police appealing for information following violent Yea home invasion in north-east Victoria

    Becoming too common, a rise in serious crimes could be the result of immigration figures (from countries where these crimes are "normal" perhaps)?. A govt created problem worsened by the fact the law protects these thugs & the victims are punished more than the thugs if they try to protect...

    Would you sell your house just to help your kids buy theirs? Some senior Aussies already have

    I don't receive a pension yet (64yo still working, tho casual, but no I cannot afford to downsize/sell my $400k 3br home given there are no cheaper homes available in my reginal town anyway & the cost of stamp duty etc means I'd have to go into debt again to do this even if I purchased a small...

    Is YOUR retirement at risk? What wealthy Aussies are asking about Albanese's new super tax laws

    What also stinks is that if you work you don't even get a choice whether or not you want to pay into super so the govt are winning big time on this one! Even worse that it will eventually affect everyone in years to come! Another form of controlling the population ! Politicians & their...

    He thought he was too smart to fall for a scam—$17,000 later, here’s what he wants you to know

    These ones are brutal because it is fairly normal practice these days for trusted tradies to ask for a deposit before starting any work & trades are in high demand so we are often forced to wait ages to get one, so you are trapped into thinking if you pay their deposit you are securing them to...

    Heads up, retirees! One missed action before June 30 could cost you BIG...

    Great article but probably should have been posted to us a couple wks or a month ago, not on 29th June like mine was lol! A bit late to do anything about the situation now! Also a bit long winded (same point made several times) & ads were very annoying so took even longer to read- luckily I...
