Super is easy to ignore when retirement feels decades away. But a few small mistakes today could make a pretty big difference to your future balance.

Tash and Ana run through eight common super mistakes, from accidentally paying multiple sets of fees to having no idea what your super is actually invested in. They also unpack some of the less obvious things worth checking, like insurance, beneficiary nominations and whether extra contributions could fit into your bigger financial plan.
In this episode:

💰 Why having multiple super accounts could mean paying fees and insurance more than once
💰 How to check whether your employer is actually paying your super
💰 Why super fees can be surprisingly difficult to understand, and where to look for them
💰 Why "set and forget" doesn't mean never checking your super again
💰 How your investment option, time horizon and risk tolerance can affect how your super is invested
💰 Ways you may be able to grow your super through extra contributions and government incentives
💰 Why it's worth checking the insurance inside your super, especially when your circumstances change
💰 The difference between binding and non-binding beneficiary nominations, and why your will may not be enough
💰 Why super shouldn't necessarily be treated as completely separate from the rest of your financial plan

The big takeaway? You don't need to obsess over your super every week. But spending a little time checking where your money is, what you're paying, how it's invested and whether your setup still suits your life could make a meaningful difference over the long term.

Pay off the mortgage or invest? It’s one of those money questions that sounds simple, until you actually start running the numbers.

Tash and Ana unpack the trade-offs between getting ahead on your home loan, keeping money in an offset, investing, making extra super contributions, and using strategies like debt recycling. More importantly, they look at why the “right” answer can depend just as much on your goals and risk tolerance as the maths.

In this episode:

🏠 Why paying down your mortgage and investing don’t have to be an either/or decision

🏠 The trade-offs between a guaranteed saving on mortgage interest and uncertain investment returns

🏠 Why your goals, risk tolerance and need for flexibility matter when deciding what to do with spare cash

🏠 How an offset account can fit into your strategy, and why you should check yours is actually linked to your loan

🏠 What debt recycling is and how it can potentially make some home loan interest tax deductible

🏠 Where extra super contributions could fit into the equation

🏠 Why building an emergency fund may come before deciding whether to invest or pay down more debt

🏠 How Tash and Ana approach the mortgage-versus-investing decision differently in their own lives

The big takeaway? There may not be one perfect answer. Your strategy can change as your income, family, goals and appetite for risk change. The important thing is understanding your options and choosing an approach that makes sense for your own “why.”

The ASX and Cboe Australia have seen 24 new ETFs land in the first five months of 2026, covering everything from space infrastructure to humanoid robots to copper miners. Tash and Ana run through what's launched, decode the jargon, and share their honest track record with thematic funds (spoiler: Tash's crypto ETF didn't go well). Plus travel money wins, including $60 resort day passes and airport day rooms.

In this episode we'll discuss:
💸 ETF basics refreshed: the chocolate-box analogy, plus quick explainers on MERs, active funds, hedging and thematic ETFs
💸 Australia's first dedicated space ETF, launched on the back of the SpaceX IPO hype, and what's actually inside it
💸 The humanoid robotics fund: how it differs from broad AI and tech ETFs, and why the hosts are happy for robots to do the laundry but not the art
💸 A fixed-term bond ETF with a 2031 maturity date, and who a set end date might suit (think approaching retirement or FIRE)
💸 Vanguard's launch spree: a new S&P 500 fund at 0.07%, hedged variants, global tech, and what currency hedging actually does to your returns
💸 The new actively managed all-in-one range, including allocations to infrastructure and gold, and how that differs from the index-tracking diversified ETFs most people know
💸 Single-commodity funds for silver, lithium and copper, and the gold bar versus gold ETF debate (Ana wants the bar, Tash doesn't trust herself on the tram with it)
💸 The honest thematic talk: concentrated holdings, higher fees, Tash's losses on crypto and clean-tech funds, and why both hosts keep the core of their portfolios boring

The takeaway: flashy tickers are fun, but look under the hood at the actual holdings, keep thematics to a small slice if you use them at all, and let boring index funds do the heavy lifting. Nothing here is a recommendation.
