In this month’s newsletter, with 30 June on the horizon, we begin by discussing several end of financial year planning tips for wealth accumulators, pre-retirees and retirees. Our animation illustrates loss aversion, a type of cognitive bias that can influence our financial decision-making in a range of personal finance areas. Certain conditions of release can allow us to access super early; we unpack the potential long-term impact of doing so under a new, temporary condition of release. The JobKeeper Payment was recently legislated, with some changes; we provide an updated overview of this. We also share a TED Talk by Anna Rosling Rönnlund, where she discusses Dollar Street, an interactive tool that allows us to view the world as a street, ordered by income.
Lastly, with the current global situation, it’s important to take time to look after our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. Below is a video by Doctors without Borders with several helpful self-care tips.
