ATO or Your Kids? Retirement and The Super Trap Explained | Ep. 41
In the final instalment of our three-part series, Roger Wheelahan joins us to explain why the later stages of your career, and the transition into retirement, are often the most overlooked yet financially critical for doctors. One wrong decision at this point could mean 17% of your super goes to the ATO instead of your kids.
We unpack the traps that families fall into when planning too late, from aged care costs eating into inheritances, to poor succession structures leaving loved ones with unnecessary tax bills. Roger also breaks down practical strategies like re-contribution, family trusts, and tax-free estate transfers to protect multi-generational wealth.
You’ll also learn how to guide ageing parents through retirement decisions, avoid common aged care surprises, and set up your own affairs so wealth passes smoothly to the next generation.
If you’re a doctor approaching retirement, or supporting parents who are, this final instalment will give you a framework to reduce stress, save money, and ensure your family, not the ATO, benefits from your life’s work.
