eNews – August 2026

How do you know when it’s time to get a professional opinion? This month, we look at some situations where financial advice might be preferable to the alternatives (especially if those alternatives are winging it or relying on questionable sources). And for anyone with sustainability on their mind, we explore some small changes you can make to become a more thoughtful shopper, reduce waste and even save money.

We then turn our attention to super, exploring why the investment option that once suited you may not always be the right fit as your circumstances change. And with major reforms to capital gains tax and negative gearing now on the books, we break down what’s changing and what investors need to know.

For those thinking about life after work, we finish with a look at the different ways your super can become a source of retirement income, and the trade-offs that come with each.

Enjoy the edition.
