How do you compare with an average Australian? 📈 Manage your portfolio on Sharesight and get 10% off your annual payment: portfolio.sharesight.com/refer/BRK22
Almost twenty years of wage stagnation that's what counts so the younger you are or the later you start in Australia the worse it looks for your future. I would suggest that half the population would not be able to afford retirement, which is a breach of the social contract between state and the working people.
So leave. Let the immigrants fund poor boomers. There is nothing here for young millennials and genz anymore. It's cheaper in tokyo and foreigners can buy houses. Interest rates are nothing. Inflation bugger all
Just came across your channel and this was most interesting. For me, I made sure my wife and I at 50 years old (12 years ago) paid off all debit. We own our houses (2) outright, have money invested in shares and a very healthy bank balance. I plan to work into my retirement 2-3 days per week as I love my job but time will tell if these plans change. The main thing for me is I eat well, exercise to have a reasonable level of fitness to enjoy the future. Subscribed and liked.
That's fantastic to hear! It sounds like you've made some wise financial decisions, and your proactive approach to retirement is commendable, something we younger folks all can learn from.
Income 150k inc super only on above median wage since late 2022 , 39 , 300k in bank after paying off another 16k this week on mortgage, net worth couple about 1.5 to 1.6 million. Nearly 40 will be doing max consessional super until retirement. 600k together in Super, shes 40 and paid an additional 15k this yesr as well. I need a financial planner.
Would the mode be the most accurate though as the greatest number of people on a amount reflects what more people actually deal with financially. Though I understand the logic of Ur choice the majority of Australians won't actually have the amount of money you mention will they with the system you are using?
Forget super. For the next generation down... Government could change retirement age to 80 with one meeting. It gets higher every year, just as our life expectancy is declining.... Just have no debt. Its such an easier life. Leave the city, work 3 days a week.
@@kirilcherry7612 Worked as a removalist in Sydney and the sunshine coast. I can tell you that the ex-wife has nothing to worry about. I can't work with what I was good at now, my back is not up to it anymore
In my early days super wasn't even compulsory and when it did, it was only 3%, plus soon after I was self employed anyway. In my 30s started to pay more attention into it and put in 20k per year as self employed. At 59 now my super balance is making same as my own income.
Explanation of stats was wrong. Median is not the most "accurate" - it is the most representative of a larger number of Australians. Also the only average is the mean, mode and median are two other descriptive stats not averages.
Super is a bit of a scam. The carrot in front of the donkey. For a lot of ppl bad health kicks in over 60 decreasing ur ability to actually enjoy ur hard work
Nonsense! I just took early retirement. I put a small $20 a week into my super when I was younger then increased it for a few years out from retirement. I ended up with $180000 more than my colleagues and a big super. Bad does not kick just because you are nearing 60 ffs....

What a great snapshot of the Australian people. I found out I have more money outside Super than inside... I need to Hustle!
Another enjoyable video Irene : )
Thank YOU for your time to watch :)
Thanks for this. It did help me feel a little more confident
Better question what’s your age and your super at?
That household net worth is not the medium. The medium (not by age) is $579,200
What is household net worth? How is it measured?
Income 150k inc super only on above median wage since late 2022 , 39 , 300k in bank after paying off another 16k this week on mortgage, net worth couple about 1.5 to 1.6 million. Nearly 40 will be doing max consessional super until retirement. 600k together in Super, shes 40 and paid an additional 15k this yesr as well. I need a financial planner.

Hi James, The data in the middle of the Bell Curve normally reflects the typical data sample.
Forget super. For the next generation down... Government could change retirement age to 80 with one meeting. It gets higher every year, just as our life expectancy is declining.... Just have no debt. Its such an easier life. Leave the city, work 3 days a week.

Same for me my super payment is equivalent to my take home pay when I was working as a Virologist which in Australia is very well paid.

is net worth measured by AUD or USD.THANKS
All in AUD.
Does household net worth mean couples?
Yes. But genz will start thruppling to make ends meet to afford luxuries like food and housing. Calling it now. 😢
How is the household net worth so high, yet the earnings so low, it makes no sense.
Property if you bought before 2021.
