Welcome to this week's episode of the Money and Investing Show with Andrew Baxter and co-host Mitch.

From understanding how super works to avoiding common mistakes such as holding multiple accounts or ignoring asset allocation, they explain how small changes today can lead to a far stronger financial position later in life. The conversation also covers practical strategies for Optimising Superannuation in Australia, including adjusting your investment mix, consolidating accounts to reduce fees, and making additional contributions in a tax efficient way. Andrew also shares insights into self managed super funds, when they may make sense, and the risks investors should consider before setting one up. Retirement planning is not something to leave until the last minute. By focusing on Optimising Superannuation in Australia early and consistently, investors can give themselves a far better chance of building a retirement they can truly enjoy.
