Episode Description

ETF tax, kids’ investing, retirement timing and super all in one Q&A? That is what Owen Rask and Tahli Cavagnino tackle in this practical Australian Finance Podcast episode.

The episode opens with the tax questions investors often avoid: capital gains, franking credits, ETF cost-base adjustments and US income. Navarre from Navexa joins to explain why record-keeping becomes harder the longer you have been dollar-cost averaging.

Then the conversation moves to everyday decisions people actually wrestle with: changing careers into financial advice, when to move on from a Raiz account, how to think about kids’ investing structures, and why retirement is usually about sequencing the right decisions rather than finding the perfect month to stop work.

The final question asks whether buying the dip inside super is worth it. Owen and Tahli explain why long-term contribution strategy and asset allocation usually matter more than trying to time the market.

If you want a useful Q&A on tax, retirement, kids’ investing and super, this one delivers.
