In this episode, join me, Dr Bi Mian and Munzurul Khan, Chairman at KHI Partners, as we talk about Australia's superannuation system, its origins, and how doctors can optimise their retirement savings in today's modern landscape.

We discuss how Paul Keating's visionary math from the 1980s shaped Australia's retirement system, why the original 3% super contribution has grown to today's 12%, and the strategic reasoning behind making super tax-privileged at 15%.

We also talk about the clever ways to navigate contribution caps and Division 293 tax for high-income earners, why compound interest in super is a double-edged sword that demands early attention, and the costly mistake of ignoring default super fund settings that could be silently eroding your wealth.

If you want to make the most of the tax benefits and investment opportunities within superannuation, then make sure to listen to this episode!
