3 questions to ask about your super fund
Superannuation has been a hot topic for many years in Australia, our Politicians keep wanting to play with it thinking that too many people are getting too much money in retirement and they should keep more of that money for wasting on useless projects in their own electorates.
It's never a good idea to let any politician make changes to super that reduce the amount of money the retirees get, all that does is push more of them onto the pension fund that the Government takes from general revenue.
That costs them more and more each year without any greater benefit.
