Nuts.

You said, give us a funny finance name.

And so they copied and pasted it.

Funny finance name.

I love it.

Under 25, bought a house, making bank.

So the government in their infinite wisdom said if you are young or you don't have enough money in your super balance, the super fund has to cancel your cover.

Now, the other thing that's super, super important is if you do not contribute to your fund within 16 months, they will also do that.

So people who go self-employed and then spend the first few years of...

having their business, not putting money into super, they may be caught under this.

Um, but people on parental leave, if you're not making contributions to super.

So it was really important that, um, for, for that group, they opt into the insurance.

Yeah.

Do that.

Yeah.

But in terms of should they go and consider cover or should they just wait for the auto acceptance?

Yeah, definitely go and consider cover, especially because you've got the mortgage, especially because you've got the income.

Like this person's, the value of their income between now and retirement, even assuming a CPI increase, is probably, I'm going to do the math, around $8 million.

Yeah.

And that's no promotions or anything above that.
