"43 to 45 percent of the used imports that we're bringing in this year have been hybrids. Hybrids are a really

Mike's Minute: The super debate is fraught

2024/09/11

As we enter yet another round of the superannuation debate, I note it was led off last week by a group that wanted what they termed a “top up“, i.e. a pay rise for those who couldn’t save. You can see how fraught that concept is from the get go. Why couldn’t you save? You had 40 years. Actually, that’s another aspect of this whole mess that’s changed. Do you have 40 years? Or 50 years? People work longer so surely a chance to save more? Superannuation fits an almost unique category of topics
