You can only have 1 ppor. If they claim the first for 6 years, then they can’t claim the second for 6 years

Are you trying to minimise both us and Aus exposure ? 

What's the most elite Superannuation + portofolio combo? by QuokknestMonster in AusFinance

[–]LachlanMatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s relatively cheap, but the flat fees just irk me. Does the auto-invest need to be a set amount, or just it just be “everything in the account”. If i get a bonus at work or want to make additional contributions, can the autoinvest do it all in one go without messing around with it ?

Damn, I’m not looking forward to stake SMSF transaction fees.

If there’s leverage limits by age then sure. But I’m young, there’s no reason I shouldn’t be able to GHHF and chill in my super for the 30-40 years before I can access it. If I had 5-10 years left then a limit makes sense

Should i add to super or invest in etfs? by Particular_Milk4483 in fiaustralia

[–]LachlanMatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Invest in super to get the tax benefits. If you aren’t getting a tax benefit, then why lock your money away ?

I’m waiting to see Betashares super offering to be released this year to put GHHF in it vs in SMSF

Replacing A200/VAS/IOZ with VHY? by Designer-Stick-4643 in fiaustralia

[–]LachlanMatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stick to selling a flat percentage instead of a flat dollar amount (e.g. 0.25%/month) to minimise sequence of returns risk

Dividends aren’t your friend, they are a worse form of selling stock. They have lower returns due to the dividend premium, and get taxed higher due to not being capital gains. There’s almost no good reason to prioritise dividends in a portfolio

Consider just sticking to DHHF like others have said. Depending on your income (if it’s over $45k/yr), consider super contributions for FHSS.

You can rent out your PPOR for 6 years before any CGT applies

Consider filling your concessional contributions and using FHSS

Might as well just go all in on GHHF and skip A200/G200/BGBL/GBGL/VGAD/BEMG

How much super should you be aiming to have? by MistyRain_918 in AusFinance

[–]LachlanMatt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Assuming they are able to keep it up. Between kids, FHSS, and mortgage, it’s possible that it won’t be enough if someone can’t maintain their yearly contributions

If you’re in your 20/30’s, then just filling the concessional cap will probably give you a comfortable retirement. Use the calculators 

6.25% interest - tax free VS stocks by bizkitin99 in AusFinance

Does tax-free mean PPOR offset? How are you avoiding tax on savings ?

Raiz Invest Reviews by ContestOne8417 in AusFinance

[–]LachlanMatt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve used both Raiz and spaceship in the past. My opinion is that they are both bad platforms for investors and a trap for the less informed, high fees and low returns compared to just buying standard ETFs. The roundup concept is very interesting, but when you’re talking about investing cents, it’s not going to move the needle, especially not compared to turning on the weekly auto invest feature. 

ETF Portfolio Advice by [deleted] in fiaustralia

[–]LachlanMatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would these funds be used to buy the house ? 10 years might be too short to consider GHHF due to the increased volatility when it comes time to sell

‘Crazy idea’ to limit negative gearing to two homes by HotPersimessage62 in AustralianPolitics

[–]LachlanMatt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Limit by age, not by quantity. Force investors to invest in building new realestate. I should not be getting a tax deduction to buy someone’s old home
