More on Superannuation proposed changes:

"According to the Grattan Institute, which advocates taxing earnings on balances above $2 million in super funds at 30 per cent or more instead of imposing a hard cap, introducing such a policy for balances over $3 million would save the federal government around $1 billion.

In the 2019-2020 financial year, there were around 36,000 people with balances over $3 million, holding nearly $200 billion in assets.”

So if your superfunds are all self custody #bitcoin with no yield and your balance is a $100m cause there’s been a bunch of halving since you first moved everything over…?

Oh and it wouldn’t save the federal government a cent, it would steal another $1bn in taxes that they aren’t currently stealing!

Yep. Get your net worth out of the fiat system.

Yes, logical, except I don’t even have close to 1M fiat dollars in my super .

My premise is mainly that #bitcoin should continue to outperform and therefore it’s likely if you have a decent amount of #bitcoin in your #smsf now, any arbitrary cap will likely be way under your balance by the time you retire after 3 or 4 halvings.

It’s all speculation of course and the goal posts will likely move many more times before then but they will want a fat slice!

90% in SmSF in BTC, die on this hill

100% for me
