    Regarding your Salary Sacrifice example.
    For those who are not planning on adding extra contribution to their super with post tax income, you would be reducing your take home pay if you were to salary sacrifice to your super from your pre tax income.
    A lot of these comparisons that companies give you are like this

    • @BryanInvest
      @BryanInvest  Рік тому +2

      You’re right mate. I should have made it more clear.

    Not sure if I'm completely misunderstanding the salary sacrifice idea.
    If you put extra money into your super, yes it's taxed at 15% but the government also taxes your super gains whereas if you were to invest the money separately and use DRP on your shares you won't be taxed anything until you cash out.
    In the long term which is actually better? Being taxed yearly for gains you don't realise until you retire or going tax free until you sell.

    • @BryanInvest
      @BryanInvest  Рік тому

      It's taxed at 15% vs the marginal tax you would have had to pay if you didn't salary sacrifice.
      So they contribute the money BEFORE you are taxed your normal tax rate. That's where the savings come in.
      Where did you hear that the govt taxes your super gains yearly?

    • @dc4539
      @dc4539 Рік тому

      @@BryanInvest Oh, I see. That makes sense. Doesn't the government tax your super earnings at 15% also?
      Maybe I'm wrong about the timeline but my yearly super statements always show thousands in tax. This is where my confusion comes in. If you're taxed 15% on earnings you haven't realised, is it not better to invest it yourself and avoid the 15%?

    • @BryanInvest

    Edit: you got there I just commented too soon haha...With salary sacrificing you can also take out a max of $50k towards your first home for the FHSS with the ATO first home super saver, only counts your personal contributions not employer guarantee contributions and caps at $15k per year upto the max cap of $50k so you kind of can get your super back before 60yo I've got until Christmas next year to have the $50k to take out, hoping we get a crash by then lol

    My best tax plan was paying mortgage off ASAP then as I received more equity I purchased shares outside super and receive a tax deduction and franking credits. Now 30 years latter I have retired I can sell $60,000 worth of capital gains (which is more than my old employment wage) put $10,000.00 into super claim a deduction. So with the 50% discount my taxable income is $20,000.00 so I pay no tax. And with the dividends I receive I get a tax refund

Just keep in mind Shares are volatile so you'll need to think in decades rather than years. If you think you'll end up withdrawing the money from Super for a house deposit within a couple of years then it's probably better to just keep it outside Super to avoid market risks.

    If I accept that offer, I thought I was up for a capital gain of $130,000, of which I would owe 30%. However, because has been held for two years, I thought you got a 50% discount on the 30%, making it 15% of $130,000.

    Sauce, thanks for the vid. I've got a question. Is it still worth considering salary sacrifice if I've got an offset account on my home loan? noting the offset returns value based on the sum that sits there everyday whereas salary sacrificing reduces my total income. Cheers.

    • @BryanInvest
      @BryanInvest  9 місяців тому +1

      Great question. It’s a tough one. History says salary sacrifice will give you a higher return in the long run. However, it depends if you want to pay off your mortgage asap (before the 30 year loan). Putting money into offset is also a guaranteed tax free return. Ask yourself if you could pay off your mortgage faster vs invest excess cash in shares outside of super, what would you pick? The answer becomes more obvious based on your choice.

    How do I know I have the appropriate level of health insurance, so I don’t need to pay the levy?

    • @BryanInvest
      @BryanInvest  Рік тому

      They will normally mention it on the package when you apply online. But usually the most basic hospital cover should be enough. You can also tell them directly that you want health insurance that will be enough to avoid the levy surcharge.

    I think the downside is that employers don't have to salary sacrifice your wage. Or at least my last employer wouldn't which was frustrating and couldn't find any leg way to make them

      It means you voluntarily contribute more to your super than the compulsory 11%. Talk to your payroll or admin officer at work about it.

    'Sauce'... My question is let's say I invested in VGA or another EFT and let's say I want to sell my ETF after 3 years as I believe that firm is doing badly and might be applying for Chapter 11/bankruptcy.
    Can I liquidate my ETFs and buy/invest for the same amount (dollar to dollar) in some other EFT?
    Will I have to pay capital Gains, even though I will invest all the amount in another eFT

    • @BryanInvest
      @BryanInvest  Рік тому

      Yes, there is no escaping capital gains tax once you sell a stock/ETF. Same as receiving a dividend. Even if you intend to reinvest the profit, you still need to pay tax on it first.

    Are you sure that if we buy the health insurance then we don’t need to pay the Medicare levy?

    • @BryanInvest
      @BryanInvest  Рік тому +1

      You are only charged the Medicare Levy Surcharge if you earn more than 93K as a single. You don't have to pay the surcharge (usually an extra 1%) if you have the right level of private hospital cover.
      Most people still have to pay the standard 2% Medicare Levy regardless of health insurance.

    Hello @bryan , great informative video. However just a quick question
    In regards to the two table comparison of john regarding super ,
    If john puts $20150 after tax does he gets back 17.5% from tax because he paid tax on 70k at 32.5% and now if he is contributes $20150 he should be taxed at 15% only whereas he paid 32.5% , so he should get back the difference.
    Pls advise if i am correct or wrong

    Hey Sauce….Problem with Salary Sacrifice into super is it favours those closer to the end of their careers , they generally have the higher incomes and more assets and have less need for liquidity.Another part of the tax system that favours the boomers

    • @BryanInvest
      @BryanInvest  8 місяців тому

      That is true. However, if you are younger, it means you’re giving your money in super more time to compound especially with the low tax rate. You’ll get heaps more when it’s time to retire.

    • @harrygilbertson6734
      @harrygilbertson6734 7 місяців тому

      Also you’re comparing someone who salary sacrifices to someone who contributes $20k annually to their super without salary sacrificing? Who on earth would do that? You should be comparing it to someone who does not additionally contribute to their super. In which situation they would take home ~$55k, more than the salary sacrificer.
      I also think adding the actual take home pay with the additional amounts that you gain in super that equates to $65k, and then calling that total take him pay is deceiving. Sure it’s true, but you don’t get to ‘take home’ that additional amount that’s in your super, I won’t be able to ‘take it home’ for another 35 years.

    • @BryanInvest
      @BryanInvest  7 місяців тому

      @@harrygilbertson6734 No, I'm comparing someone who salary sacrifices vs someone who invests outside of super (not non-concessional contributions).
      And yes, you're right on the second part. I used poor wording calling it 'take home' even if they will eventually take it home. However, I think most people understand the point I'm trying to make.
