The federal budget keeps changing, and this time it's SMSFs and trusts feeling the impact. Tash and Ana break down two surprise updates: a ban on SMSFs borrowing to buy residential property, and a new minimum tax on discretionary trusts that had the estate planning world in a spin.

In this episode we'll discuss:

💸 What an SMSF actually is, and how it differs from a regular super fund

💸 What an LRBA is and how people were using it to buy property inside their super

💸 Why this ban wasn't even in the original budget, and why that's got people a little salty

💸 What a testamentary trust is and why it's not just a "rich person" strategy

💸 How the new 30% trust tax almost caught testamentary trusts in the crossfire, and what's changed since

💸 Whether this could spark a rush of people trying to buy property in their super before the deadline hits

Some of this is locked in law, some is still just a proposal, and there are still a few grey areas nobody's been able to answer yet. If you've got a will, a super fund, or you're just trying to keep up, this one's worth a listen.

Most people see the highlight reel. But what does it actually cost to put your life online?

In this episode, Tash pulls back the curtain on what it's really like to be a public figure in the personal finance space. From the opportunities that come with sharing your story, to the criticism, the privacy trade-offs, and the moments that make you question whether it's all worth it, this one gets honest about the side of content creation nobody really talks about.

Ana also shares how her thinking has shifted since becoming a mum, and what she's had to reconsider about what she shares, who can see it, and how she protects her family.

If you've ever thought about sharing more of your life online, or you're just curious what the behind-the-scenes reality actually looks like, this episode is worth a listen.

In today's ep, Tash is joined with Emma from The Broke Generation to unpack a juicy reddit dilemma: a couple in their early 30s, one-year-old in tow, are weighing up whether to sell both their Sydney properties and start fresh in Melbourne, debt-free.

On the surface it sounds like a clean trade: ditch the debt, escape jobs they hate, and buy back time for family, travel, and a slower pace of life. But the catch? They'd be leaving behind a daily support network of family and friends that, when you've got a one-year-old, might make things tricky.

Lots to unpack!

In today's episode, economist and commentator Evan Lucas joins Ana to unpack some of the biggest forces shaping the Australian economy right now. From AI and the jobs market to the federal budget and what the CGT changes actually mean for everyday investors.

In this episode, they cover:

💸 Why AI is an enhancer, not just an efficiency tool

💸 The industrial revolution comparison: what history says about job displacement and where the new opportunities will emerge

💸 Australia's federal budget breakdown: the minimum wage rise, income tax frustration, and why 54% of government revenue coming from one source is a problem

💸 The proposed CGT changes explained in plain numbers (and why Evan thinks they'll hurt everyday investors more than the wealthy)

💸 Why housing affordability is being debated in the wrong arena entirely

💸 The GST conversation nobody wants to have (but probably should)

💸 What Gen Z & Alpha are up against, and why the system isn't rewarding hard work the way it used to

A first home buyer posted on the Oz Finance subreddit convinced that rising interest rates were about to swallow 84% of their income. The maths looked terrifying. The only problem wast that it was completely wrong.

Tash and Emma from The Broke Generation are back together again to break down exactly where this buyer's calculations fell apart, and why it's far more common than you'd think.

In this episode, they cover:

• The specific mistake that turned a manageable rate rise into a financial nightmare on paper
• Why the lending system already has a built-in buffer most borrowers don't know about
• How fear-driven headlines are making first home buyers worse at reading their own finances
• What to actually do if you're worried about rate rises and don't know where to start
