Financial Planner Luke Smith joined 2CC Talking Canberra 1206AM in Money Matters, which aired live on Friday 29 November 2024. Luke joins Leon Delaney in the studio to talk about a superannuation strategy that makes a lot of dollars and sense. There are a lot of incorrect assumptions about superannuation and this episode takes a deep dive into one of them.
It’s correct to say that if you are over 60 you can withdraw money from super tax free. However, the assumption that when you pass, any money in your superannuation or pension account will pass tax-free to your adult children is not correct. Adult children are not considered dependents, and therefore do not enjoy tax-free status. This show explores a strategy that may assist.
