  • Annoying Host

    The host is patronising towards listeners and dismissive of other peoples opinions. His mild profanity is unprofessional and he constantly talks over his guest.

  • Helpful, friendly and always informative

    This is one of my top 2 podcasts on planning for retirement. I love that it covers both complex financial choices and technical issues in a simple way and the human side of retirement. Glen is a master asking simple questions in a way that brings out the best in his guests

  • Rambling fools

    These guys are uninformed and spend half the time talking about how you should spend a bunch of money to use financial advisors, and try convince you itโ€™s worth it.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

420 The 2026 Federal Budget: Glen James & Vince Scully with Jim Chalmers, MPs, insiders & what it all means for you
Q: What is the practical impact of the 30% minimum CGT tax on small investors?
The minimum 30% tax means gains will face a baseline tax rate after inflation adjustments, which can increase the tax bite for some middle-income earners on large gains, though retirees on age pensions are exempt. It also doesn't apply to super in most cases and has nuances about where gains and offset deductions sit.
421 Catch-up contributions, term deposits in super, Centrelink income trap + more
Q: What should you consider when evaluating a fund that is 'close to new investors'?
Assess liquidity, fund strategy, whether new money would be deployed consistent with the existing PDS, potential fees, and whether redemptions are still allowed, especially in smaller or property-focused funds where liquidity can be constrained.
421 Catch-up contributions, term deposits in super, Centrelink income trap + more
Q: How safe are term deposits inside super, and what should be considered beyond the nominal rate?
Term deposits are familiar but not universally the best option; safety often relates to the applicable government guarantees, fund-level restrictions, and the time horizon for the money, plus whether the term aligns with retirement plans and liquidity needs.
421 Catch-up contributions, term deposits in super, Centrelink income trap + more
Q: If someone is over 60 and has satisfied a condition of release, can they withdraw and then recontribute to reduce the 500k balance cap and access catch-up amounts?
Technically yes, you can withdraw while preserving the ability to top up later, but it depends on the balance staying under 500k and the anti-avoidance rules; the ATO and Division 4A rules scrutinize the purpose behind such moves, so it should be documented with professional advice.
421 Catch-up contributions, term deposits in super, Centrelink income trap + more
Q: What are catch-up contributions and why are they useful for boosting super?
Catch-up contributions allow using unused concessional caps from prior years to top up super, enabling someone who has had lower balance or gaps in contributions to add more money when the cap is available, thereby offsetting capital gains or boosting retirement savings.
