Episode Description
It’s the Australian Retirement Podcast’s first birthday! Drew Meredith and James O’Reilly look back on a huge year of markets, headlines, and retirement conversations — from Div 296 and global tariffs to the AI investment boom, Japan ending negative rates, and what the return of Trump could mean for investors.
They also answer your most-asked retirement questions: how age gaps affect Age Pension eligibility, what late starters can do to catch up on super, and whether to invest inside or outside super after paying off the home early.
Whether you’re 45 or 65, this episode is packed with practical lessons from 60 episodes, 170K listeners and a year of helping Australians retire with confidence.

– Market wrap: Div 296, tariffs, AI boom, Japan and Trump’s return yet returns remained robust
– How age gaps affect Age Pension eligibility
– Catch-up strategies for late starters with low super
