It would be great if super could be paid on parental leave.

You know, they just recently changed the, you know, removed that 450 super threshold, which was, you know, stopping casual workers or people on a lower income from getting super.

I don't understand.

That's crazy.

And if you had a number of casual jobs, so, you know, at one you earned 300 a month, at one you earned 400, that's still no super.

And the thing is it's a lot of women in these roles.

Predominantly.

Parental leave.

So they should mandate, the government should mandate that super gets paid on parental leave, like on top of... Yeah, right.

Like you would do it?

And some companies do, but not all.

And I guess the tax system as well, like it just, it could be fairer.

So it benefits high income earners and low income earners are often more, again, more so women.

You know, there's the tax benefit of, you know, salary sacrificing to minimize your tax.

Yeah.

So that's the structural things I would suggest.

Did you ask me something else?

the people around them or themselves to not be in this situation so this is what i'm looking at uh it's like the crux of my my work at the moment i'm looking at three encounters so it's the combine contribute and invest so what i mean by that is combining your funds so that you just have one so you're not paying multiple sets of fees or multiple sets of insurance fees and

contribute, so that's add more if you can, and invest, that's knowing what you should be invested in for your age or your risk tolerance.

So that's three things you can do.
