Q&A- Debt recycling, the six-year rule, and exiting your financial planner

Pre-order Wealth by Design HereIn this mailbag episode, we tackle five listener questions spanning some of the trickiest decisions in personal finance. A Brisbane couple in their mid-forties, with strong super balances and a plan to knock down and rebuild, ask whether to ease off super contributions to kill debt faster or keep compounding inside the lower-tax environment and whether debt recycling is their smartest long-term play.We unpack a thorny capital gains question on the six-year absence rule: can you settle a new home first, then sell the old one, without triggering a double-PPR problem? A high-income Melbourne couple wonder whether $6,800 a year in ongoing financial advice is still worth it, how to untangle from wrap platforms, and whether a coastal second property stacks up given their age and timeline.A father in St Ives asks whether tipping $2,000 a year into a 20-year-old's super is a gift worth making. And a Perth listener eyeing his neighbour's block wants the unbiased truth on double blocks and subdivisions.Practical, numbers-driven answers to real situations and the principles behind them.My new book is available for pre-order now: Pre-ordering the book will help me get it into bookstores.
