I'm on one hundred and twenty five 517 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 8: thousand and he's one fifty five thousand. In our everyday life, 518 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 8: this work's fine. We split everything five percentage of out come. 519 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 8: I just don't even know how to consider the super 520 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 8: topic while off having a baby, and I'm frustrated a 521 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 8: system that is making it complex for me to be 522 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 8: the high income earner and then also to have a 523 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 8: child the way I would like to take the time 524 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 8: off and those sort of things. 525 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: Thank you. 526 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 4: I find this a really interesting one because usually you're 527 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 4: asking for superannuation contributions because you're going to be significantly 528 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 4: behind when you return to the workforce. And obviously, let's 529 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 4: pretend you're taking twelve months, because I feel like that 530 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 4: seems to be the average amount of time in in 531 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 4: my friendship group, So that kind of makes most sense 532 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 4: to me to use as an example. 533 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 2: And she didn't tell us. 534 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, I want your 535 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 4: partner and you to have this conversation about contributing to 536 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 4: superannuation while you're on parental leave, because I don't want you, individually, 537 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 4: or anyone at all to be going back into the 538 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 4: workforce and having a twelve month period when no contributions 539 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 4: are made at all. Now, if you treat everything as 540 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 4: kind of equal, well it wouldn't be a Now, beck 541 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 4: you have to pay for my super contributions. 542 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 2: The conversation from my perspective, would. 543 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 4: Be more around how are we as a couple who 544 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 4: now have a limited budget, going to make sure that 545 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 4: I don't miss out financially for my super because at 546 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 4: the end of the day, it's not just about you, 547 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 4: it's about you and your partner. They're going to miss 548 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 4: out too, because if you you know, in a happy, 549 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 4: go lucky world, you stay together forever and it's all 550 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 4: sunshine and roses. Well, that super contribution decision that we're 551 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 4: making today will put you both ahead in retirement. 552 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 2: If something happens in your relationship, at least. 553 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 4: You haven't fallen behind because of the parenting decisions that 554 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 4: you made you at the time, made because they were 555 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 4: best for your family. So it's all about making sure 556 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 4: that we are financially stable. So the contribution isn't about going, oh, 557 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 4: my spouse has to make that from his pay. It 558 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 4: could actually come out of your parental leave pay, it 559 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 4: could come from some savings, it could. 560 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 2: Come from anywhere. There are some benefits to it. 561 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 4: So if your partner is earning less than you, what 562 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 4: you can do is a spouse super contribution. It's a 563 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 4: voluntary after tax contribution into the superfund of your choice obviously, 564 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 4: but the person making the payments, So your husband in 565 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 4: this circumstance could make the contribution and like do the transfer, 566 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 4: but they can actually benefit from a tax offset of 567 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 4: up to eighteen percent for contributions of up to three 568 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 4: grand a year. 569 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 2: So that's a money win. If we look at. 570 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,199 Speaker 4: You, know, you just do some basic maths, your usual 571 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 4: tax rate and because what our friend wrote in is 572 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 4: thirty two and a half cents in the dollar inside superannuation, 573 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 4: the average tax rate is fifteen cents, so that's obviously 574 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 4: very sexy. And what usually happens is if you make 575 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 4: a co contribution or an after tax contribution to superannuation, 576 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 4: come tax time, the ato go, ah, you paid thirty 577 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 4: two and a half cents on the money that you 578 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,360 Speaker 4: put in.

Even running the numbers 636 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 6: and being like, hey, like I miss out on five 637 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 6: thousand dollars over the course of the year, and in 638 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 6: thirty years that five thousand dollars could have been x, 639 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 6: you know, So explaining the numbers to them, I think, 640 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 6: and showing them the why and what it means, and 641 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 6: I suppose not making it seem as that you're just saying, oh, 642 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 6: I want money because that's what I always have. Because 643 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 6: I think if you approach the conversation with someone who's 644 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 6: never thought about it, they might just be a bit 645 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 6: taken aback from a lack of understanding. So educating them 646 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 6: might be really helpful in having that conversation and being 647 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 6: flexible in the amount I feel like is maybe the 648 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 6: best way to make it work. 649 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 2: I agree. 650 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 4: I think it's so important to talk about it as well, 651 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 4: and maybe not just go, oh, the only way is 652 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 4: for my partner to contribute, because there are a number 653 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 4: of different super strategies you could implement, right, Like, you 654 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,360 Speaker 4: could do a number of things. So I have had 655 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 4: clients historically go, oh, in the next couple of years, 656 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 4: I think I'm going to take leaves. So what I'm 657 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 4: going to do is bump up my super contributions by 658 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 4: two percent. And they've calculated that all out, so that 659 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 4: puts them a year ahead. 660 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 2: So they don't even have to have that conversation with 661 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:24,360 Speaker 2: their partner. 662 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 4: Because parental leave is stressful, Like it's not something that. 663 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 2: Is you know, all sunshine and roses. 664 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 4: Like my husband and I are going through this like 665 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 4: planning stage at the moment where we go, okay, he 666 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 4: gets three months at his full time salary, right, so 667 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 4: we are currently trying to work out our budget for 668 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 4: him to take. 669 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 2: Six months at half pay. 670 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 4: Sure, but it's all about doing the maths and the 671 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 4: numbers and working it all out. I'm sure that if 672 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 4: you're in this circumstance, you're doing it too. But there's 673 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 4: a number of different strategies you can implement, So I 674 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 4: guess let's contextualize this too. 675 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 2: So research tells us that. 676 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 4: Two children could to one hundred thousand dollars in lost super. 677 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 2: So obviously we. 678 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 4: Have paid parental leave and all of these fun fancy things, 679 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 4: but not many of them include superannuation. And that's because 680 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 4: employers are not obligated to make super contributions while you're 681 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 4: on parental leave, which is great. One thing I think 682 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 4: that employers could be doing is going, you know what, Jess, 683 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 4: we are a small business. We might not be able 684 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 4: to pay you full time for that period of time, 685 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 4: but how about we do the government thing and your 686 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 4: super and then everybody is in a better position financially. 687 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 4: You can actually call your super fund as well and 688 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 4: let them know that you're going on parental leave, and 689 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 4: a lot of them will actually wave fees for that 690 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 4: period of time. So they'll waive fees on your insurances 691 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 4: because during that period of time you're not going to 692 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 4: be able to get income protection because you're on parental 693 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 4: leave and you don't have income, so they might wave 694 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 4: those fees. They might also be really kind and wave 695 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 4: your super fees. Like the ADMIN stuff again goes back 696 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 4: to you, Beck. What you're saying before got to have 697 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 4: a little bit of an audacity. What kind of deal 698 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 4: can you cut here? But the end of the day, 699 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 4: like lost super during parental leave. 700 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 2: I looked this up before. Analysis by Industry Super Australia shows. 701 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 4: A woman who spends five years out of the paid 702 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 4: workforce in her late twenties to early thirties could be 703 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 4: almost one hundred thousand dollars worse off in retirement and 704 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 4: that's a lot of money totally, so it's definitely ask 705 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 4: your partner what about co contributions? Can we afford this? 706 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 4: Can yours partner split their super so like, instead of 707 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 4: them getting their full super, can you have half of 708 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 4: it for that period of time so that you're both 709 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 4: on an equal playing field. Can you contribute in the 710 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 4: lead up to having children when you get back to 711 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 4: work if you didn't have any ability to contribute to super, 712 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 4: don't worry, guys, we're in a cost of living crisis. 713 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:45,719 Speaker 2: I totally get it. 714 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 4: But could you bump it back up once you get 715 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 4: back to work to kind of get back to where you. 716 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 2: Needed to be? 717 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 4: And the other thing here is if we're caring so 718 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 4: much about SUPER contributions, have you reviewed your SUPER recently? 719 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 4: Is it the right fund for you to even during 720 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 4: this period of time? 721 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 2: And they performing well? 722 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 4: Like, it's not just about fees it's about fees, performance, structure, 723 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 4: your ethics, all of those things. And if you haven't 724 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 4: reviewed your super recently, now is the time because all 725 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 4: of this is wasted if you're not getting it back 726 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 4: on performance.

She says she's already 764 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 4: sent it back and I should contact the bank because 765 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 4: there isn't anything else she can do. However, we've transferred 766 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 4: money between each other before and it happens instantly. 767 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 2: At the moment, I don't know what to think. 768 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 4: I trust her, That's why I sent her the money 769 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 4: in the first place, to help me, but I'm starting 770 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 4: to become sus on if she really sent it, but 771 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 4: I can't accuse her of this. 772 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 2: Do you think I could ask her. 773 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 4: To send her own money in the meantime until we 774 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 4: figure out where my money went. I desperately need that 775 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 4: money to pay my bills, which still aren't paid. 776 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 2: How would you handle these girls? 777 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 5: Oh? This is so tricky. The whole time, I'm thinking, like, 778 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 5: can she not send a screenshot of the transfer? 779 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
