@BADALEX_ @teejaydev Skill issue. You can control where your super is invested.

@ptremblay @theo Nothing wrong with it at all, it's a decent library.

[Matthew King @MatthewKingAU]

@theo I think DaisyUI is a pretty neat library tbh.
Weird grudge from Pouya though.

@pureguava10300 @Wivz_03 It's not the exact same place. The killer is from Rockingham, this guy is from Bunbury. Hundreds of kilometers away.

@zoidz00 @ChShersh Hit the nail on the head.

@ISU_Clone2020 @_nickm17 The median net worth per adult in Australia is more than twice that of the USA.

@artificialoxyg1 @linzcom No, they are introducing a minimum tax of 30% on capital gains, regardless of your income. If your income is $0 you will still be paying 30% minimum on your capital gains.

@ijahnig @ighaworth Everyone with children has also experienced not having children, but the inverse is not true.

@_mumbling_me @PatMabuns Also, apologies for piling on. It seems like you are already aware of this. Cheers!

[Matthew King @MatthewKingAU]

@_mumbling_me @PatMabuns This is not how it works under the new budget proposal. Respectfully, you should sit out the discussion if you haven't been keeping up with the changes.

@TrumpsWarCrimes @lomaxx The 50% CGT discount is being removed in the latest budget. Why do Americans think they know more about Australia than Australians do?

[Matthew King @MatthewKingAU]

@hvw203 Freo fan here. Completely agree. You guys got screwed by the umpiring. It was inevitable, they were never going to let you win that one.

[Matthew King @MatthewKingAU]

@supertolerant @sunlit_upland Are you OK? You seem quite angry.

[Matthew King @MatthewKingAU]

@some0nethere @ting959 @AvidCommentator It was also higher in the past, especially before the 2000s

[Matthew King @MatthewKingAU]

@Petitopinionsjm @michaelsnape There's no discount now. Under the new system, the cost base is indexed based on CPI. Now consider what the cost base would be for a software startup built in a garage. Barely anything. So the indexation does not help them at all, and they end up paying full undiscounted CGT.

[Matthew King @MatthewKingAU]

@Petitopinionsjm @michaelsnape Inflation indexing doesn't help them, there's basically no cost base to inflate.

@yupitchris @AvidCommentator You would be surprised mate. I bought my first ETFs in my early 20s when I was working hospo while studying at uni. And it's a lot more accessible nowadays than it was back then.

@nazjerit @matthiasellis sorry champ but it's not millennials fault that you're an idiot

@GonnaGetBumpy @thechosenberg Understandable, I think the exact cutoff dates have changed a few times over the years.
