Here's What They Don't Tell You About Your Property Tax!     Ever wondered what you can actually claim when you buy, hold or sell an investment property in Australia?   In this episode, Todd sits down with tax expert Jeremy Iannuzzelli to break down the real costs behind a property purchase, using a fictional investor "Nick" to show how deductions, cost base rules, and CGT really work in practice.   You'll hear how upfront costs like stamp duty, conveyancing and borrowing expenses fit into the picture, what ongoing holding costs investors can claim, and what happens at the selling stage when it comes to agent fees, depreciation and capital gains tax. Jeremy also explains why proper record-keeping matters far more than most people realise and how a bit of planning can make life much easier, especially around estate matters.   A practical, jargon-free episode for anyone wanting to get their property tax game sorted.   If you're ready to level up your investing confidence, this episode is a must-watch!

Labour's targeted capital gains tax (CGT) announcement last week was interesting. We're yet to see the detail, but has it got some merit? Taxes, property and politics are three topics that lead to robust debate amongst many New Zealanders, so let's roll those into one and talk about this latest proposal!

Labour bit the bullet on capital gains tax this week, but the political point-scoring was a zero-sum game. Also: a big rejig of Māori news & current affairs funding - and while our leaders have been on the world stage, we've been accused of punching below our weight on global media freedom.

Labour has introduced their Capital Gains Tax policy after it was leaked to the media last week. If implemented, it would mean a 28% tax on any profits made from house sales excluding the family home. So what would a tax like this do to the property and rental markets?

Patricia Bullrich, ministra de Seguridad y senadora electa, afirmó: “La experiencia de ir por el medio, digamos, que no es un medio ideológico, es por el medio entre el kirchnerismo y la fuerza de gobierno, ¿no? No le fue bien, entonces quizás es un buen momento para poder hablar con ellos y ver qué cosas se pueden hacer en conjunto y cómo alinear el país hacia el cambio y no aliándose con el kirchnerismo, que no lo lleva a ningún lado, porque son todas cosas sueltas, impulsos, leyes que no eran leyes, sino intentos de apriete”.El gobernador de Catamarca, Raúl Jalil, aseguró: “No me sorprende mucho la elección porque, si ustedes se acuerdan, en el 85 Alfonsín ganó bien, en el 2017 Macri también ganó bien. Creo que esta es una apuesta que hace la gente, no hay que subestimar al votante, el votante que dice entre un caos para el día lunes o tranquilidad, la gente piensa tranquilidad, ahora también está dando un mensaje de que no siga cayendo el desempleo, que haya obras de infraestructura”.Héctor Daer, co-secretario de la CGT, apuntó contra Cristina Kirchner por bailar en el balcón luego de la derrota electoral: “Una es saludar y otra cosa es bailar. Me parece que no le cayó bien a nadie. A mí me sorprendió, yo estaba en La Plata en ese momento y cuando me dijeron textuales palabras, me dijeron, Cristina está bailando en el balcón, la verdad que no lo puedo creer, porque aparte considero que Cristina es una persona inteligente, y bueno, no sé, o me dio mal el saludar a la gente que la fue ver. ¿A usted por qué le cayó mal? Porque estábamos perdiendo la elección. Digamos, que salude la gente. Por eso digo, por ahí la interpretación del baile no es la correcta y es la forma de ella de saludar, nada más”.Martín Menem señaló: “No queremos volver al pasado, que el kirchnerismo ha sido una pesadilla para la Argentina. Todo lo que tenemos por delante en este contexto de apoyo internacional, de apertura, siendo así un capitalismo de libre comercio también a nivel internacional, libre empresa de regulación, continúen por ese camino, queremos que nuestros hijos se queden. hay un mensaje muy importante que nos han brindado las urnas y te repito tenemos una responsabilidad, una doble responsabilidad que es seguir transformando ir por las grandes reformas que quedaron pendientes”.“La política es áspera, es dura, se juega sucio, se pega bajo la cintura. Los temas de los que se hablaron vas a ver que en la justicia van a quedar en el pasado con el total esclarecimiento de todo, pero por supuesto. Esto si no hubiera habido definición de lista, esto no pasaba”, agregó Martín MenemNoticias del miércoles 29 de octubre por María O'Donnell y equipo de De Acá en Más por Urbana Play 104.3 FMSeguí a De Acá en Más en Instagram y XUrbana Play 104.3 FM.

First up, Roger Cotton, farmer and Councillor for the Lawrence-Tuapeka Ward has been checking in with Southland locals. he says in particular the elderly can be left isolated with the recent extreme weather. Then, Labour's targeted Capital Gains Tax - is New Zealand ready for a CGT, this time? And finally, to restore it, or to bowl it? That's a question the small town of Cambridge is trying to answer for its heritage-listed water tower.

On the Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive Full Show Podcast for Tuesday, 28 October 2025, Labour has confirmed its worst case secret: a Capital Gains Tax will be brought in if Labour wins the next election. Heather asks Chris Hipkins about all the ins and outs of the new policy. Netball NZ Chief Executive Jennie Wyllie says it wasn't a mistake to stand Dame Noeline Taurua down - but can't say what changes will be made when Taurua returns as coach. Teaching kids consent will be mandatory for schools soon, but sex education therapist Jo Robertson says we could go further.

Well, I don't know what's worse for Labour - the fact that they've announced a capital gains tax policy again today, or the fact that someone leaked it and forced them to announce it in a rush. Obviously, it does suck for them that somebody leaked it first, because it means that they were so unprepared that they had to rush-job announce it in an email at 3:05 this morning. And then Chippy had to cancel his morning radio interviews so that he didn't have to answer questions about this until he was ready - and then they had to get ready and call themselves a rush-job press conference where they all looked furious, and they stumbled over their words. Honestly, you haven't seen such a sad line-up of people announcing something they're proud of. This is the second policy announcement that Labour has managed to stuff up in just about a week's duration - which hardly looks convincing, does it? But then it also sucks for them that this is the policy that they're taking to the election, because I don't care what the Beltway in Wellington tells us - I do not believe that a majority of New Zealanders want a capital gains tax. No matter how many times Labour pitches it, no matter how many times they try to convince us that everyone else wants it, why don't you want it? And you know I'm right when I say this, because look at how Labour's selling this today. Even they sound like they're not so sure that we want a CGT, because they've double-policed it. Today, they've told us what they're going to spend the money on, which is three free GP visits a year for us - basically to try and sell it to us, in order to convince us that a capital gains tax is good for us. And also, just look at how gleeful the National Party sound. They know that this made 2026 just a little bit more likely for them. What I now want to know though - is who leaked this to the media? Was it someone who was just really excited that they knew something, so they leaked it to the media and blew up their own party's big announcement - or was it someone who disagrees with Labour and wanted to blow up their own party's big announcement? Either way, they've just made an unconvincing policy even less convincing today. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recently, the Labour Party have unveiled their capital gains tax (CGT) policy. The policy only targets properties, with the exception of family homes, and farms. The tax policy, according to Labour, will supply all New Zealanders with three free doctor visits yearly. For our weekly catch up with the Green Party's Ricardo Menéndez March, News and Editorial Director Joel spoke to him about Labour's CGT policy, and what the Green's think of it. They also discussed the funding cuts for the Māori news organisation's Te Karere and The Hui, as well as how the Green Party will be campaigning 1 year out from the next general election. But first, they discussed Labour's CGT policy.

Labour has announced what some are describing a “watered down” version of a Capital Gains Tax. This targeted CGT would affect profit made after July 2027 from selling a commercial or residential property, excluding the family home. Leader Chris Hipkins promises nine out of 10 Kiwis won’t pay tax on what they own, and it’ll allow everyone to get three free doctors visits a year. On the flip side, National’s calling it an “attack on investment and savings” - with Finance Minister Nicola Willis saying it would “put New Zealand’s economic recovery at risk”. Today on The Front Page, Infometrics economist Brad Olsen is with us to dive into the details of Labour’s latest pitch to the public.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this Wealth Coffee Chats episode, Anthony Wolfenden, Tax Financial Advisor at Positive Tax Solutions, breaks down one of the most misunderstood areas in Australian property taxation — the Principal Place of Residence (PPR) capital gains tax (CGT) exemption and how it changes when you move overseas. Using clear real-world examples, Anthony explains how the six-year rule can protect your tax-free gains — and how easily it can disappear if you become a non-resident at the time of sale. He walks through three scenarios showing how homeowners can either keep 100% of their profits or lose hundreds of thousands in tax simply based on residency status. From the impact of the 50% CGT discount to what really triggers a taxable event, this episode is a must-listen for any Australian property owner working or living abroad.   Episode Highlights: General advice disclaimer and scope of discussion. What counts as a principal place of residence and how CGT exemptions apply. The powerful “six-year rule” that lets you keep your tax-free status after moving out. How capital gains tax is calculated once the exemption period ends. What happens when you sell while living overseas — the rules for non-residents. Why non-residents lose the 50% CGT discount and pay a flat 30%+ tax from dollar one. Smart strategies to plan your sale, including becoming a resident before signing the contract. Key reminder: capital gains tax is triggered at contract signing, not settlement. Teaser for the next episode — CGT implications on the final home you own before passing.

THE BEST BITS IN A SILLIER PACKAGE (from Tuesday's Mike Hosking Breakfast) Times FiveSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I was looking last night at things we could talk about, and there was plenty to talk about, all of which got superseded by Labour, Labour, Labour - having to release their capital gains tax, which is targeted to three free doctors' visits. Labour's been playing peekaboo with a capital gains tax for some time now. Oh, will we, won't we? Oh, what's it going to look like? Can't tell you. And now they kind of have. We finally get to hear the detail on what that CGT is going to look like, except #notreally. Because the release was made early because it was leaked, and so nobody got up to speak to the policy. Chris Hipkins, Barbara Edmonds, and Ayesha Verrall are doing that at 10:30am today, despite their press release having been out for the past five hours. With all news media going, what the dickens? What does it all mean? Does nobody actually talk to one another in the Labour ranks? Last week a health policy was announced and Chris Hipkins was taken by surprise. Today there's been the leak, not ideal. Anywho, from the press release, Labour will set up a Medicard for all New Zealanders, giving you three free doctors' visits per year, whether you need them or not, and will pay for it with a targeted capital gains tax. There was some detail included in the release. The tax will exclude the family home, Kiwi Saver shares, business assets, inheritances, and personal items. And the tax will only apply to gains made after July 2027. I heard Mike reading out a text saying, "Oh, I bought the batch in 56,1956. It's been in the family and now I'm going to have to pay a million dollars in tax." Well, no. The tax will only apply to gains made after July 2027. Back to the press release we go ... currently most profits from selling commercial property or residential property are tax-free. A new targeted tax would apply only to the sale of a commercial property or residential property, excluding the family home, and only on the gains made after the 1st of July 2027. There would be no tax on any gains made before that date. I don't think that was very clear this morning in the discussion. The tax would be set at 28% to align with the company tax rate. So some detail. So many more questions. I have some, and hopefully we'll be able to put them to Chris Hipkins, Ayesha Verrall, or Barbara Edmonds at some point. How much will three free visits for every New Zealand cost the taxpayer? Anybody? No. Related to that, how much does Labour anticipate collecting from a targeted capital gains tax? Anybody? Nope. Does it include dental, which is what a lot of primary healthcare researchers have been calling for, or just the GP visits? Why does everybody get three free visits? If one in six New Zealanders can't afford GP visits, why are taxpayers paying for the five in six who can? What if I don't need to visit the doctor three times a year, but my neighbour needs to visit 10 times? Surely it's better to look after people who are born with poor health or develop poor health over a lifetime, and look after them and keep them out of the hospital system. And not specifically related to the policy, but why are you having so much trouble releasing policy, Labour? Seems to be a bit tricky. You've had quite some time to develop it. Anyway, hopefully we can put these questions to them, but there has been much talk about a capital gains tax. We've been waiting for the other shoe to drop, waiting for Labour to release this. It's so targeted, so specific in terms of how the CGT will be applied, and then to tie it in with free GP visits, three per person per year, when five in six New Zealanders don't need free visits. What's the point? You might think it's amazing. If so, I'd love to hear from you. If this is an absolute game-changer for you, I'd love to know how and why. To me, it's a complete and utter head-scratcher. And I'm trying not to be biased against Chris Hipkins. But I am a bit, a little bit. But I'm open-minded to Barbara Edmonds and Ayesha Verrall, I quite like them in terms of the policy they announce. Chris Hipkins is a likeable chap, but I just think he's been a failure when it comes to delivering any kind of policy. I'm willing to keep a relatively open mind to Barbara Edmonds and Ayesha Verrall, but they're not doing much to convince me. Why give something to people they do not need? That's been a criticism of National with the tax cuts and the landlord rebates. Why give something to people they don't need? Why not target it to the people who do need it? And what's the point of bringing in a capital gains tax if it's going to be put into harness with three free GP visits to people who may or may not need them? I give this one a two out of 10.

It's another varied mix of questions, with a couple on catching up after a late start, avoiding the 60% tax trap and lots more. Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA30  01:03  Question 1 Hi, I'm curious if you have advice, best practice or tools to advise people who have a reasonable rental property portfolio on how to plan for retirement? I am 55, have taken 50k tax free cash, and 13k a year drawdown, approx 40k left.  I have 11 rental properties, but I am still remortgaging and buying more properties.  Currently have about 450k available to reinvest into a few more properties, and then probably stop buying. I'm really struggling to understand how much I can/should have available to spend each month, especially as I'm still reinvesting into properties.  I'm sure I should be spending way more than I am, but can't work out how best to put a retirement plan together to show how much I truly afford to spend each month. Love your content, and thanks for any advice you may be able to give. Thanks, Paul 09:49  Question 2 Hi Pete and Rog. Big fan of the podcast, keep up the good work. I am looking at ways to stay under 100k income each year to remain eligible for childcare benefits. I know if I were to make AVC into my work pension this would help to remain below that figure. I would prefer to put this money into a SIPP. My question is if I got paid the money and deposited it into a SIPP instead of my work pension will this reduce my income tax and prevent me from going over 100k and losing childcare benefits. Kind regards, Joshua 12:33  Question 3 Hello Pete and Roger, Firstly, thank you so much for such an informative podcast. I don't think I listen to a single episode without taking away something valuable! My question relates to what I should do to with money as I accumulate it for the next financial year's ISA and SIPP allowance. For context- I am 39, an NHS doctor with an NHS pension, have a paid off mortgage and have started making SIPP contributions to bring my adjusted net income below the 60% tax threshold. I am in the privileged position to be able to contribute maximum S&S ISA contributions at the beginning of each tax year and already have filled premium bonds allowance as my emergency fund. Should I put my accumulating savings in a high interest savings account until April, or am I missing out on growth each year and should I be using a GIA with a bed and ISA approach? I appreciate there may be tax on savings interest above £500 or CGT on anything over £3k gains. I just don't want to be missing out on the best approach for the next 20+ years as I hopefully continue to max out ISA and pension contributions. Thank you so much in advance and keep up the fantastic work! Paddy   16:36  Question 4 Dear Pete and Rodge, I am relatively young (36) and have started listening to your podcast relatively recently (in the last year). What I like about it best is the calming relaxed attitude that money matters are discussed in and the comforting belief that life is more important than money I think shines through. Comparison is the thief of joy I know but I find it hard to situate myself in relation to where I ‘should' be financially. I stayed at university a long time (10years) and so always perceived of myself as ‘in debt' and living to the brink of my means, I didn't have a credit card but I would spent all my money and save nothing. When I did eventually get a job it didn't pay much and again it was paycheck to paycheck for many years. Then came three big changes almost at once. First me and my wife had a baby daughter come along, next the company I worked for went bust and third I found your podcast! Something about the mix of these three made me sit up, take notice and want to engage with my finances where previously my head had been in the sand. I did very much feel like I was way behind the running. I managed to find a job which paid almost a third as much take home pay again and decided to set up savings for my daughter, set up an emergency fund, increase pensions contributions, open a stocks and shares ISA, all of the good stuff that you guys continually discuss. However, I still am very much of the opinion that I am way behind the game and starting late which is a shame seeing as time is such a valuable component in investing. My question to you guys is, were you in my position, where would be the first places you would look to educate yourselves on the right things to do next? I feel like I don't know what I don't know and things continually surprise me (for instance I didn't realise that having a car on finance was considered bad debt until the other day). I have this constant nagging doubt that I will be missing something because I haven't started from the beginning. I did consider going back to the start of the podcast when I found it, but Rodge wasn't even around in the first few so I didn't enjoy it as much and also felt like maybe some advice would have gone out of date? Is there a key place for me to start, non-negotiable sources I have to get to grips with in the first place that you can direct me to? What would you do? Very keen to learn your thoughts and hugely appreciative of all your efforts! Kind regards, Dan 24:16  Question 5 Hello Pete & Roger I've gained Incalculable value from listening to you so keep up the amazing work! I have a DB-DC hybrid scheme and at my target retirement age (64) my projections say I'll have £33K p.a DB income + £345K DC pot. This would give me ~ £86K TFC allowance at the pot. My plan has been not to take any TFC on the DC pot upfront and to use regular UFPLS withdrawals to reduce income tax over the long term. However, as this is a hybrid scheme, if I take both DB and DC components at the same time I can keep the DB at £33K p.a. and take £220K TFC upfront. This has made me question my slow TFC strategy as I can realise far more taking it upfront by leveraging the DB ‘value' but only at that point in time. My thoughts are to then find a way to get this £220K TFC into S&S ISAs where they would be invested in the same way as in my DC pension. This would allow me to reduce income tax massively over my lifetime. This seems too good to be true! Is it? Problem will be finding a home for such large amounts of cash Options Max mine and wifes ISA allowances (£40K p.a) £10K p.a. contribution  to mine and wifes DC pots  (MPAA limited) (£20K p.a.) Any other options? Thanks, Duncan 28:46  Question 6 Greetings Pete and Roger, Speaking as a fellow Gen X gruff Northerner (…Pete!), I'd just like to express my huge gratitude to you both for rescuing me from years of financial ineptitude, misdirection and investing ignorance. I can only blame myself, but losing a parent in my late teens, then late 20s, and subsequently finding myself on the non-receiving end of ‘Sideways disinheritance' (Dad remarried / mirrored will / sold our family home to pay second wife's debts….) didn't help with establishing good long-term financial habits. Thankfully, the financial clouds parted 21(ish) months ago when I discovered your excellent Youtube videos, first book, and podcast back catalogue, including a tour de force in ‘tough love' re: DC pension catch up.  Since then, I've been desperately trying to catch up, with a rough target of getting a DC pot to support an UFPLS annual 3.5 - 4% withdrawal of, the magic, £16,760. Starting from a very low base, I've been using direct payments from my own Limited Company into a Vanguard SIPP, approximately £3k+ per month (yes, I'm living on lentils..) combined with transferring personal contributions of £10k from money sat in a S&S ISA, thereby getting tax relief up to my small wage of £12.5k.  Using this mechanism, I've placed £48k into the pension (mindful of the £60k limit – tax relief is added on the 10k personal, but 19% corp. tax is saved on the employer contributions) in the last financial year, but won't be able to sustain this forever. My question is as follows – provided I still make a net profit after the Employer pension contributions, am I correct in assuming I'm ok re: the ‘Wholly and exclusively' HMRC test?  The employer pension payments dwarf the remaining net profit, from which I then take a small amount of dividends, and a smaller corporation tax payment is made at 19%. Also, provided I don't transgress the personal earnings limit (£12,570 for me), is that ok also re: also putting in from the employee side? Am I missing anything at all?  E.g. could you use the ‘carry-forward rule' to top up previous years with employer contributions from the Limited company?  I'm assuming the answer is ‘no', as dividends don't count as earnings / they don't exceed £60k, but thought I'd ask anyway! Apologies for the ‘War and Peace' length question, and thanks again. Stay intentional, Bill PS: Really like the ‘Catching up' section of your, also excellent, second book Pete.

C dans l'air l'invité du 16 octobre 2025 avec Sophie Binet, secrétaire générale de la CGT.L'Assemblée nationale a rejeté aujourd'hui les motions de censure déposées contre le gouvernement, laissant ainsi sa chance au Premier ministre Sébastien Lecornu. Mardi, dans sa déclaration de politique générale lue à l'Assemblée nationale, Sébastien Lecornu avait annoncé la suspension de la réforme des retraites « jusqu'à l'élection présidentielle ». Il s'agit d'une concession importante qui a donc permis au Premier ministre d'écarter, au moins pour un temps, le spectre d'une censure. 3,5 millions de Français sont directement concernés par cette suspension.La secrétaire générale de la Cfdt, Marylise Léon, a salué le lendemain une "victoire collective". De son côté, la CGT s'est montrée plus prudente, en insistant sur l'objectif de l'abrogation de la réforme de 2023. La secrétaire générale de la CGT, Sophie Binet, appelle aujourd'hui à la "mobilisation" contre le projet de budget pour 2026, indiquant que celle-ci commencerait "dès le 6 novembre prochain" avec une journée d'action des retraités. "Ce budget est très dangereux. Il faut absolument le modifier en profondeur", a estimé la leader de la CGT sur France 2.Sophie Binet, secrétaire générale de la CGT, est notre invitée. Elle réagira au rejet des motions de censure contre le gouvernement Lecornu 2, et à la suspension de la réforme des retraites. Elle reviendra également avec nous sur le budget 2026, et sur la future conférence sur les retraites et le travail, que Sébastien Lecornu appelle de ses voeux.

Doug McHoney (PwC's International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Sarah Hickey, a PwC Australia International Tax Partner and the Australian tax desk leader in New York City. Doug and Sarah discuss Australia's corporate tax landscape (30% headline rate; new thin-cap at 30% of tax EBITDA with a retrospective integrity rule on related‑party debt), investment incentives, the two‑speed CFC regime and “use it or lose it” foreign tax credits, and dividend, interest, and royalty withholding. They cover the diverted profits tax (40% rate; 12‑month evidence window), Pillar Two timing, public CbCR and short‑form restructure disclosures due by end‑2025, and indirect taxes including non‑resident CGT and stamp duty. Finally, they unpack the High Court's Pepsi decision—no royalty derivation by the US, a 4–3 win on royalties and DPT—and why contract wording anchors royalty analyses. 

In today's Q&A episode, we're answering a bunch of questions from those on the threshold of retirement, getting into the nitty-gritty of age-difference planning, DB scheme reductions and all sorts! Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA29    01:04  Question 1 Hi Pete I am really enjoying listening to the podcast, thank you. They make what can sometimes be a complicated subject much easier to understand. I have a question which I have asked my SIPP provider but even they don't appear to know the answer so here goes: If someone has a SIPP valued at say £1.2m and a DB pension valued at say £300k, in order to maximise the favourable annuity provided by the DB pension, is it possible to draw the full LSA (25% tax free cash) from the SIPP? Or is there a requirement to draw the LSA on a pro rata basis from both the SIPP and the DB pension? Thank you, AJ 07:07  Question 2 Hi Pete and Roger, Thanks to The Meaningful Money Handbook, The Meaningful Money Retirement Guide and listening to all of your podcasts, I'm now in the fortunate position to retire in three years at the age of 55. However, I have a couple of questions about building a Cash Flow Ladder: Q1 - Should I be moving my investments into the various rungs of the ladder now, or just wait until I retire? Q2 - Most of my investments are in a pension, but I also have an ISA for a bit of flexibility. Would it make sense to use the same ladder structure in both the pension and the ISA? Thanks for all your good work. Tim 11:17  Question 3 Hi guys Loving the podcast - helped me through the COVID years and it's been a staple ever since so thank you for that. My question is around investing in older age. At what point, if any, is it worth cashing out GIA investments if other sources of income such as state pension and DB pensions are more than enough to live off and I have sufficient other capital (cash isas) for those big things still ahead? I'm not planning to leave any sort of inheritance (unless I pop my clogs early !) so is there some rule of (age) thumb of when to cash out and spend investments? I sort of don't see the point of continuing to invest after a certain age and to spend the money. But I guess it's not easy switching from investing to spending. Thanks, Chris 16:33  Question 4 Hi Pete & Roger, Great show gents, always interesting and informative.  I've been an avid listener for a couple of years now and have been encouraged to write in on the off-chance that my question may have relevance to others with a similar dilemma. I fear you may feel it's too niche but here goes: I'm 59yrs old and for all intents and purposes retired, in as much as I quit my career in business 18months ago to take on the full-time parental care role of my 6yr old twins which enables my wife (15yrs my junior) to continue in the career she loves. We are fortunate that my wife is an additional higher rate tax payer (as was I before I quit), we live mortgage free in a ~£1.5m family house - all of which means I have no plans to draw a pension until my wife is also ready to retire, which despite her occasional gripe, is not likely to be until our children leave school (by which time we will be ~ 72 and 57 respectively). I have a small index-linked Public Sector DB pension that kicks in in a few months time when I hit 60 (£7k per year) and expect to get a full State Pension which should provide me with around £20k p.a. at todays values as a base income when I reach state pension age in 7 years time. I also have a Pension pot currently valued at around £1.2m, made up from £1m SIPP and £200k S&S ISA) and my wife's Pension pot is currently valued at around £520k (£400k SIPP & £120K S&S ISA).  I no longer contribute to my SIPP but my wife invests around £30k Gross in to her SIPP annually and we plan on continuing to fill both ISA allowances each year until she retires.  We are both 100% invested in equities using low-cost Global trackers to maximise their growth potential. Here's my question, I was burnt a few years back (before I started listening to podcast like yours to educate myself on how to manage my finances) when I was persuaded to join SJP and combine all my old workplace pensions into a single pot managed with them.  I even persuaded my wife to join and I opened Junior SIPPs for my twins when they were born (not their advice, my own) which we continue to pay the full amount into monthly to hopefully secure their future retirement. Long and the short of it, the more I learned about investing, the more I regretted my decision to tie myself into SJP and the more I begrudged paying their relatively high fees (for what turned out to be a lower return than much lower cost tracker options could / would have produced over that same time period). I eventually sucked up the exit fees and bailed out a few years back, taking my wife and children's accounts with me and whilst I haven't looked back, it has made me reluctant to spend money on financial advisors, given the perceived poor advice I felt I received last time. To that end, I'm currently planning on managing mine and my wife's finances through retirement without recourse to an advisor but have started to have niggling doubts as to the whether I'm being too arrogant in my own abilities. In simple terms, our aim to build a combined Pension Pot (incorporating a healthy ISA element to aid in tax-efficient drawdown, allow my wife to retire early(er) if she so desires and to cover one-off expenses that may from time to time will come up) that's large enough for us to live off comfortably based on a flexible 3-3.5% drawdown rate annually (index-linked).  The plan is also to remain 100% invested in equity throughout retirement with the exception of and maintaining, a 3-5yr cash-like buffer (invested in MM Funds / short term government bonds) from which to take our living expenses. My wife and I are not extravagant spenders and can easily cut our cloth according to circumstances, so my feeling is, with a small but decent guaranteed income that we will have as a foundation, when combined with what I hope/expect to be a sizeable joint Pension Pot and a relatively low and sustainable withdrawal rate that should see us right even through the harshest of winters (metaphorically speaking) this should provide all the income we'll need for a comfortable retirement with a good chance of leaving a fair amount left in the pot for our children at the end, without over complicating our portfolio or expensive management costs. The obvious concern I have is around IHT but even there, I feel like that's a concern to address further down the road once we know we are financially secure and when we know more about the needs of our children as they grow-up and can plan what to do with any excess cash we might have using the rules in place at that time. Sounds simple, but is it too simple?  Can you spot any obvious flaws in this plan or reasons why you think seeking professional advice would make sense that may not have considered? Thank you and keep up the good work! Regards, Aaron 27:42  Question 5 Hi both Love the podcast. I listen regularly and enjoy hearing the banter between the two of you,  as well as providing answers to thought provoking questions. As an additional rate taxpayer in Scotland, my marginal income tax rate is an eye watering 48%. So I get significant benefit from tax relief when topping up my pension. It can cost as little as £33,000 to enjoy a full input of £60,000 once I get money back on my tax return. I have been diligently stuffing my pension as much as I could afford for years now as it was always the prevailing financial advice. I'm now only a couple of years away from retiring at age 55. I am fortunate enough to be now over the old LTA (which is now of no consequence). However the tax free limit is still set at 25% of that old allowance (£268,273?). Given I am now NOT going to benefit from any further tax free money on the way out, I wonder whether continuing to contribute to my pension is a good idea anymore. My choices are either : 1) Pay into the pension and enjoy tax relief of 48% now, allow the fund to accumulate tax free over the coming years, then pay income tax on the way out at 40%. (I expect to be high rate , not additional or basic rate tax payer in retirement) 2) Take the tax hit now on income, don't contribute to pension, put the nett amount into a GIA, and pay 24% CGT on the gain on the way out. I did some numbers and while the pension wins out, it's not by much over a 10 year term assuming 5% growth. But tax rates could change, pension rules could change, and inheritance tax changes are pending. Can you compare the pros and cons of each approach to help me make a decision, or is there a third option to consider? (I hear Roger sometimes suggest a strategy of taking the tax hit now rather than later e.g better the devil you know) I hope this makes sense. Thanks, Martin   33:47  Question 6 I became an avid listener of the podcast during the first lockdown and have learned so much in the past 5 years. I really enjoy it and appreciate all the effort you put into it. My question is with regard to age gap relationships and planning for retirement. I'm 59 and am currently contributing to the NHS Pension Scheme. Part of my pension can be taken at  age 60, without deduction, and I hope to have an income of £16,000 plus a £50,000 lump sum. The rest of my pension I'll be able to take at age 67 and by the age of 63 I hope to have a further pension of £18,000 without a lump sum. In addition to this, from my career before the NHS, I have a SIPP and the current value is £400,000. 63 is the age by which I hope to have stopped working at my current level but it might be sooner. My wife is ten years younger than me and has not been working for most of her adult life. Currently she is paying into a local authority DB scheme but by the time she is 58 her pension entitlement might only be £5,000 per year, but this would need to be discounted by 40%-50% in order to take that income. By the time we are eligible I expect both of us to qualify for the full state pension. We have no other cash savings to speak of and our mortgage is due to be paid off next year, when I will be 60. My question is what advice do you have for couples who face this age gap issue. The plan is that we want to spend our retirement together while I am fit and active (well fit-ish). Once we both have the state pension, with my NHS Pension, we should have an income of £58,000 at todays values, which will be enough for our needs when I am in my late seventies, but might make me a higher rate taxpayer in requirement. Before then, we'd like to spend a bit more and we are planning to use my SIPP and my wife's DB scheme (when she is 58) to fund our pension, until it is replaced by the second NHS Pension and the state pensions. I never realised this would be so complicated to get my head around. When the mortgage is paid off, we'll have some money and should we concentrate in paying it into an ISA so that we can get an additional income without me having to pay higher rate tax, or should we set up a SIPP for my wife so that she can build up a pot of money that she can drawdown on from when she is 58. This would be with the aim of her utilising as much of her annual tax free allowance as possible. I've assumed there is no way that I can transfer part of my SIPP to her before I die. I very much hope that you can help. Best wishes, Steve

Sure, building public housing would help and is worthwhile. But that would cost many billions and would merely be taken up by new migrants (this is happening now in Melbourne). We simply cannot build enough homes or infrastructure to keep up with demand. We don't have the capacity. Therefore, the only solution is to go back to pre 2005 levels of migration and ensure that it is focused on skills the country actually needs. We need quality, not quantity. As long as policymakers continue to pump immigration, the rental and infrastructure crises will continue. Nothing can be done on the supply side in any reasonable timeframe to change this fact. Matt's Notes I claimed that over the last 10 years the population has increased by 16% but the number of dwellings has increased by 19%Population data comes from National, state and territory population. Click on the “Population and components of change – national” towards the bottom of the webpage. In the spreadsheet that downloads we are looking for “Estimated Resident Population (ERP) ; Australia” (this is column L in the spreadsheet). 10 years comes from March 2015 to March 2025. The numbers are population in March 2015: 23,745,600. Population in March 2025: 27,536,900. The formular for calculating the percentage increase is (Mar-2025 – Mar-2015)/Mar-2015.Dwellings data comes from Total Value of Dwellings. Click on “Table 1. Total value of dwellings, all series” towards the bottom of the webpage. In the spreadsheet that downloads we are looking for “Number of residential dwellings; Australia” (this is Column AT in the spreadsheet). 10 years comes from the increase from March 2015 to March 2025. The numbers are dwellings in March 2015: 9,511,300. Dwellings in March 2025: 11,320,300.The quarterly dwellings data only goes back to Sep-2011. But the housing crisis really started in the early 2000s. So, to go back further I use census data. If you compare the 2001 census with the 2021 census (latest census), population has increased 33% and dwellings have increased 39%.Population and dwelling data for the 2001 census comes from 2022.0 – Census of Population and Housing: Classification Counts, Australia, 2001. In the downloads tab click on the first data cube “Australia Classification Counts 2001”.Click on the first spreadsheet called “Aust_Age.xls”. This has the population number at D110 in the spreadsheet. The population is 18,972,350.Click on the 14th spreadsheet is called “Aust_Dwelling Location.xls”. It has the dwelling number at B15 in the spreadsheet. The number of dwellings is 7,810,352.Population data for the 2021 census comes from Population; Census.

At the bottom of the webpage click on “Data table for Housing data summary”. The number of dwellings is 10,875,248 (J17 in Table 1 of the spreadsheet).You now have the population from both 2001 census (18,972,350) and the 2025 census (25,422,788). You also have the number of dwellings from the 2001 census (7,810,352) and the 2025 census (10,875,248).Rent and general inflation figures all come from the Consumer Price Index, Australia.I claimed over the last 10 years general inflation (CPI) had increased 33%, while rents had increased 24%.Both figures come from the bottom of the webpage at the CPI website linked above, called “Table 7. CPI: Group, Sub-group and Expenditure Class, Weighted Average of Eight Capital Cities”.The rent numbers come from “Index Numbers; Rents; Australia” (column BC in tab Data1). I actually compared Mar-2015 (109.2) to Jun-2025 (133.7). This gives a 24% increase. But to compare with the dwelling data I should have compared March-2015 (109.2) to Mar-2025 (133.7). This reduces the increase to 22%. But as I was arguing that rent prices hadn’t increased as much, this helps my point.The general inflation numbers come from the same spreadsheet as the rent numbers but are at “Index Numbers; All groups CPI; Australia” (column EC in tab Data1). Again, I compared Mar-2015 (106.8) to Jun-2025 (141.7) to get 33%. But I should have compared Mar-2015 (106.8) with Mar-2025 (140.7), which would give 32%.I also claimed that over 25 years general inflation (CPI) had increased 103%, while rents had increased 115%.These figures are from the same columns as the rent (BC in tab Data1) and all groups CPI (EC in tab Data1) data from above. Except instead of comparing 10 years, I went back to Mar-2000 (62.7 for Rent and 69.7 for CPI) and then compared this with Jun-2025 (135.0 for rent and 141.7 for CPI). Again, for consistency I should have compared them both with Mar-2025. This would have meant the general inflation increase would have been 102% (rather than 103%), and the rent increase would have been 113% (rather than 115%). This doesn’t make any difference to the points I was making. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's another mixed-bag of questions this week, covering income protection, the local government pension scheme, avoiding the 60% tax trap and much more besides! Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/2025/10/08/listener-questions-episode-28/    01:33  Question 1 Hello Pete & Rog I like to think of you as a couple of great mates offering me life changing information in a relaxed & entertaining fashion. When putting income protection in place, how do people/planners typically frame a target? Just replacing essential income? Or also replacing  large contribution to pensions (including lost employer contributions) and S&S ISAs for long term wealth building? Thoughts on how I should frame these questions are very welcome! Many thanks, Duncan 11:27  Question 2 Dear Pete and Roger, Firstly thank you so much for all the free resources you put out there to try and help make the world more financially literate and astute. I myself started a journey of self awareness a few years ago thanks in no small part to your content. I have a question about pension recycling and what is allowable. I've read the rules on the criteria, all of which I think have to be met in order to fall foul of the rules, but am not clear on my wife and my specific situation. My wife and I met later in life and have been married for 13 years in a happy and stable relationship. I've just turned 50 but my wife is eight years older. In summary when we came together I brought earning potential but no assets (previous divorce wiped me out!) and she brought assets (house, SIPP pension built up, inheritance) but, through mutual agreement, no earning potential. Fortunately we have a healthy open discussion about money. I am an additional rate tax payer and use my £60,000 limit of pension contributions every year. We have paid off our mortgage and we have always lived using my salary for all our outgoings and live within our means with little consumer debt. I max out my ISA allowance too. Essentially I have no more tax breaks we could take advantage of by her giving me money, save for CGT or dividend allowances. After thinking about her tax implications I have encouraged my wife in the last couple of years to start to withdraw from her DC pension the maximum amount that would result in no income tax being paid (currently £16,760 of which 25% is tax free). Since we don't need the money for living expenses she tops it up with her savings to £20K and puts it in a S&S ISA so really is just moving investments from a less flexible tax free wrapper to a more flexible one while she pays no income tax. We will do this for the next ten years until she reaches state pension age and I retire myself. She'll still have a sizeable SIPP at this point as this strategy won't deplete all her pension. She still has significant other assets that attract tax as she earns more interest than the starter rate for savings allows tax free. She's fully paid up all her NI through additional contributions, has the maximum in premium bonds and I also have started to get her to put £2,880 into a new SIPP in her name every year to get 20% tax relief. My question (sorry it took so long to get here) is that now she is drawing an income of sorts from her DC pension could she recycle more than £2,880 into a SIPP? Clearly it fails on the intention front, on the >30% of the tax free cash and the fact she has actually taken tax free cash. But she's not taking in excess of £7,500 of tax free cash in a 12 month period (another one of the criteria) and I'm also not sure if her taxable DC withdrawals (on which she pays no income tax as

Tax & Inheritance Changes: What You Need to KnowUpcoming changes to business succession tax: from April 2026, only the first £1m passed to the next generation will be tax-free (down from unlimited).Inheritance tax allowance has been frozen since 2009, dragging more people into the tax net.Unmarried individuals and those without children face additional challenges.4.

durée : 00:20:20 - Journal de 12h30 - Près de 250 cortèges sont prévus dans tout le pays lors de cette deuxième journée convoquée par l'intersyndicale (CFDT, CGT, FO, CFE-CGC, CFTC, Unsa, FSU et Solidaires).

C dans l'air du 1er octobre 2025 - Lecornu : pas de gouvernement et déjà un test dans la rueÀ peine nommé et déjà menacé. Alors qu'il devrait annoncer son nouveau gouvernement en fin de semaine, le Premier ministre Sébastien Lecornu voit peser sur lui la menace de la censure à deux semaines de l'examen par l'Assemblée nationale du projet de loi finances. Ces derniers jours, le nouveau locataire de Matignon a reçu les principales formations politiques, dont les socialistes avec qui il espère pactiser en vue d'éviter la censure. Pourtant, le représentant du PS est ressorti déçu des premières négociations. Vendredi, Sébastien Lecornu a confirmé dans le Parisien avoir écarté l'idée d'une taxe Zucman, le retour de l'Impôt sur la fortune ou la suspension de la réforme des retraites. "Si rien ne change, le résultat est déjà connu. Il y aura une censure, donc ce gouvernement tombera et il y aura vraisemblablement une dissolution", menace Olivier Faure, tandis que les députés Renaissance, dirigés par Gabriel Attal préparent déjà des élections législatives anticipées. Reste qu'il faut ménager le socle commun. Lundi, Sébastien Lecornu a dit que son futur gouvernement ferait des "propositions" de baisse d'impôts "notamment en faveur du travail".Dans l'attente d'une possible censure, les syndicats ne relâchent pas la pression et se préparent à une forte mobilisation jeudi, deux semaines après une première réussie (500 000 manifestants le 18 septembre). Les revendications des 8 organisations syndicales demeurent les mêmes : abandon du plan d'austérité de 44 milliards d'euros, suppression du report de l'âge à la retraite à 64 ans ou encore une meilleure justice fiscale. Parmi les principales figures de proue de ce mouvement, la secrétaire générale de la CGT, Sophie Binnet, mais aussi celle de la CFDT, Marylise Léon, réputée comme à l'écoute et mosdérée.Quand 68 % des Français se montrent favorables à la taxe Zucman, réclamée par la gauche, un homme s'y oppose. Entrepreneur ultralibéral, co-fondateur de la licorne Ledger, Eric Larchevêque veut alerter sur ce qu'il considère comme une mesure absurde. Selon lui, la plupart des entrepreneurs dont le patrimoine est composé d'actions, "c'est‑à‑dire en grande partie virtuel", seront incapables de payer cette taxe. Plus globalement, il estime que taxer davantage les riches ne changerait rien, car "la dette est colossale" et qu'un tel impôt ne ferait que fuir les chefs d'entreprises français.Sébastien Lecornu peut-il réussir à négocier un pacte de non censure avec la gauche ? Les syndicats peuvent-ils mettre davantage la pression sur le Premier ministre grâce à la mobilisation de demain ? Et pourquoi les entrepreneurs s'opposent à la taxe Zucman ?LES EXPERTS :- Jérôme JAFFRÉ - Politologue - Chercheur associé au CEVIPOF- Mathilde SIRAUD - Rédactrice en chef du service politique - Le Point- Fanny GUINOCHET - Éditorialiste économique - France Info- Jérôme FOURQUET - Directeur du département Opinion - Institut de sondages IFOP

In this episode of WealthTalk, Christian Rodwell is joined by Omar Aswat, Chartered Tax Adviser and founder of ASWATAX, to unpack the urgent changes coming to Business Property Relief (BPR) in April 2026 and what they mean for business owners and property investors. Omar explains how the new BPR limits could expose significant business value to inheritance tax, highlights the practical steps you should be taking now, and delves into strategies like family investment companies, trusts, and smart incorporation. The discussion also covers the impact of Section 24 on landlords, practical tax-saving tips for business owners, and succession planning tools for those looking to future-proof their wealth. Whether you're scaling a business, building a property portfolio, or planning your exit, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you stay ahead of the curve.Key TakeawaysMajor Change to Business Property Relief (BPR) in 2026From April 6, 2026, BPR will only exempt £1 million of value per trading company/group from inheritance tax (IHT); any value above will be taxed at 20%.Urgent need for business owners to review structures and plan ahead.Who Is Affected?Owners of trading companies/groups with assets above £1 million.Property investment companies already subject to IHT—this rule change doesn't benefit or worsen their position.Mitigation & Planning StrategiesFamily investment companies (FICs)Growth and freezer sharesDiscretionary trustsGifting, sale acceleration, and succession planningCase-by-case: bespoke advice is essentialSection 24 & Incorporation for Property InvestorsSection 24 restricts mortgage interest relief for personally held property; incorporation can offer tax savings but must be weighed against capital gains and stamp duty costs.Comparative calculations are vital before transferring property into a company.Inheritance Tax Allowances Explained£325,000 nil-rate band per person, plus £175,000 residence nil-rate band (if passing main home to direct descendants).Married couples can combine for up to £1 million, but the rules are technical and not inflation-linked.Family Investment Companies (FICs)FICs provide flexibility in dividend planning, control, and succession.Can be set up new or by converting existing companies; often used in combination with trusts for asset protection.Smart Moves for Business OwnersAlphabet shares for flexible dividend planning.Utilise directors' loan accounts, charge rent for company premises owned personally, and salary sacrifice schemes.SSAS pensions remain a powerful, underused tool.Planning for Exit or SaleEarly, proactive planning is essential—some reliefs require shares to be held for 24+ months.Options: third-party sale, management buyout, employee ownership trust (EOT), company purchase of own shares, or new holding company.EOTs: allow sale for 0% CGT if structured correctly, but success depends on a strong management team post-sale.Omar's Experience & PodcastOver a decade in finance, founder of ASWATAX (Leicester & London).Hosts “Talking Tax Podcast,” covering EOTs, IHT, R&D, and more.Contact DetailsWebsite: www.aswatax.co.ukEmail: omar@aswatax.co.uk or taxadvisory@aswatax.co.ukPractical TipsDon't delay—review your business and property structures now ahead of April 2026.Always seek bespoke, specialist advice before making structural tax decisions.Consider both current and future family/succession needs in your planning.Use comparative calculations to assess incorporation or restructuring benefits.Mention WealthBuilders if contacting Omar for tailored support.Resources MentionedJoin the Inheritance Tax Guide WaitlistWT103 - Employee Ownership Trusts w/ Chris BuddWT295 - The Exit Roadmap: How to Sell Your Business for Maximum Value w/ Chris SpratlingConnect with Us:Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and all major platforms.For more inspiring stories and actionable tips, subscribe to Wealth Talk and leave us a review!Next Steps On Your WealthBuilding Journey: Join the WealthBuilders Facebook CommunitySchedule a 1:1 call with one of our teamBecome a member of WealthBuildersIf you have been enjoying listening to WealthTalk - Please Leave Us A Review!If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review WealthTalk on your favourite podcast platform

Some great questions this week about planning for the loss of the personal allowance, investing in GIAs, persuading an aunt to write a will, and much more besides! Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA26  01:11  Question 1 Dear Roger and Pete, I enjoy listening to your show driving to work. You are both down to earth and humble with your opinions. I read a lot on finance and have been investing in stocks and share ISA since 2004 and VCTs since 2017. I have built a healthy portfolio of nearly 300k in VCT, 400k in Stocks and share ISA. I also have a healthy DC pension of roughly 700k and DB pension worth around 10k per year from age 60. I am approaching 50th birthday this year and so decided to use up some of my cash savings which is in excess of my target investment of 20k in ISA and 50 k in VCT(as unable to go over 10k in pension (due to annual allowance threshold). I know I am fortunate and I also live frugally as that's my nature and don't have too many wants. The question is if I have roughly 80k in mortgage and I have the ability to clear it, should I invest that 80k in VCT on top of my regular VCT allocation of 50k and get the 30% tax benefit(as I am unable to get much tax benefit from my pension) or clear my mortgage as the mortgage is coming up for renewal and likely interest rate will be 4-4.5%. I am torn as I understand in my head that 80 k invested is better than clearing the mortgage over a 20-30 year time frame, but as I am going to be 50 and would like to clear the mortgage and have freedom to decide if I want to enter a life of FIRE or have the ability to FIRE if I get bored. However, I have kids in school and so unlikely I will FIRE until they go to university. Sorry about the long question. Thank you, Fred. 06:25  Question 2 Hello Pete / Roger, Great podcast! I hope karma holds true and all the good you give out back comes back to you both! Question: I am a higher rate taxpayer who maximises their pension, stocks & shares ISA and other best tax sheltered places so need to also build wealth in a taxable GIA. What is best strategy for a higher rate tax payer to do this... dividend / income generating stocks or accumulating (non dividend paying) investments and pay CGT at some stage (regularly)? Thanks, appreciated as ever and hope may help others Ivana  10:43  Question 3 Hi, Nick (who I assume will read this first), Pete and Roger, I'm not sure if this is a suitable question for the podcast but here goes. How can we persuade an aged aunt that she needs to write a will, as us knowing what her wishes are is not sufficient. I have an aunt who has no children but she has said she wants her estate split equally between her 8 nieces and nephews but she refuses to make a will. The problem is that if she dies intestate there is an estranged brother who would be a beneficiary as far as we understand  and so what she wants to happen won't happen. Richard J 15:50  Question 4 Hi Pete and Rog My husband and I have been MM diehards for many years. We think It's a sad reflection of the state of nation when David Beckham gets considered for a gong before Pete does! I wanted to ask you about UK T-Bills because they are rarely (if ever) mentioned in your discussion of financial instruments. We are at retirement age I have a few DB pensions and a SIPP with Interactive Investor of approx. £300k. About ½ is sitting in Cash (including short term money market funds) because we want to draw out our 25% tax free allowance within the next 2 years and we want to minimise risk until that time arrives. I still want to diversify my low risk investments  as much as possible into bonds but my experience of bond funds is that they can also drop significantly with economic conditions whereas we want something to deliver us a (near as possible) guaranteed return. Our platform (ii) allows us to purchase bonds on the primary market however they are too long-term for us to see them through to maturity given our timescales. The platform has started to release UK T-Bills which seem typically much shorter term (3 or 6 months) and therefore appear to give us what we are looking for (guaranteed rate at a decent %) and very low risk. I know the % return is determined by the ‘auction' but it currently looks to be around 4.5% on average (especially the 3-month ones). We plan to apply the bond ladder concept and buy these T-bills over the next few years on a rolling basis. As they are very short term, if rates drop we can change our strategy mid-plan so I think it also gives us a degree of flexibility too. Have we overlooked something obvious as it seems to fit our needs perfectly for the next couple of years? We are very hands-on on the platform so we don't mind getting stuck into the action process (which looks straightforward). I'd be interested if you had any additional insight / comment on T-Bills being used for this or other strategies. Regards, Gilly 22:55  Question 5 Hi Pete, Roger, Thank you for the podcast, I always look fw to listening to it on my Wednesday commute. I'm trying to figure out when it makes sense to accept paying more income tax versus increasing my pension contributions? My total compensation this tax year is estimated to be £125k meaning I will lose all of my personal allowance with an effective 60% marginal tax rate on the last £25k of my earnings. Part of my compensation is made up of RSUs and very predictable quarterly bonuses. My base salary is approx £85,000.Last year, my total compensation was £105k, with a smaller base salary. My pension contributions kept my taxable income below £100k. I do not have any children, so the loss of funded childcare is not a concern. I've been contributing 15% for the last 5 or 6 years, starting when I was earning about half what I earn now. I chose that percentage to bring earnings under the 40% threshold at one point. At the start of this tax year, I increased my pension contributions to 20% because my income increased and I had no immediate need for the extra money. My employer only matches up to 5%. I am in my mid 30s and have roughly £140,000 split between my SIPP and my current workplace pension. Both invested in 100% equities in a global fund. I am considering increasing my salary sacrifice from 20% to around 30%, to keep my taxable income below 100k to avoid the loss of personal allowance. I'm hesitant because, playing around with the compound interest calculator, starting with a £140,000 balance, contributing £1,700 per month (20% salary sacrifice), and assuming a 7.5% return (which may be slightly optimistic), I would end up with a pension pot of about £1.5 million at age 55. Which might be too much. I have £80k in my stocks and shares isa, also in global equities and I'm on track contribute 20k this tax year.  I own a flat with a mortgage, fixed at less than 2% for a couple more years with no interest in over paying. I'm worried I might end up with too much money left when I (eventually!) die, I have no kids and I am not interested in leaving a legacy. Shall I just accept the tax bill and increase my lifestyle today given I'm already saving enough that I know I will be comfortable later in life. I read die with zero a year or so ago, and it resonated with me a lot. What else is there to consider? Thank you, Mark. 29:15  Question 6 Dear Pete & Roger, I have one question on my financial planning. This year I had received extra bonus which lead to my salary at the end of tax year of £123k. I have contributed £17k to my pension using employer contributions but remaining £6k is through my company stock which was vested and I got £3.1k income after paying 47% tax. My question is as my salary threshold for this tax year crossed £100k, for this additional £6k do I need to submit self assessment and if yes, do I need to declare this £6k full stock amount completely as a separate income even though I already paid tax on it, does this mean I am also liable to pay capital gains tax on this £3.1k? I look forward to hearing from you what are my options to submit to HMRC through my self assessment so I can calculate if I owe any additional tax or HMRC will refund me some money due to £17k pension contributions? Many thanks, Vai
