In today's episode, economist and commentator Evan Lucas joins Ana to unpack some of the biggest forces shaping the Australian economy right now. From AI and the jobs market to the federal budget and what the CGT changes actually mean for everyday investors.

In this episode, they cover:

💸 Why AI is an enhancer, not just an efficiency tool

💸 The industrial revolution comparison: what history says about job displacement and where the new opportunities will emerge

💸 Australia's federal budget breakdown: the minimum wage rise, income tax frustration, and why 54% of government revenue coming from one source is a problem

💸 The proposed CGT changes explained in plain numbers (and why Evan thinks they'll hurt everyday investors more than the wealthy)

💸 Why housing affordability is being debated in the wrong arena entirely

💸 The GST conversation nobody wants to have (but probably should)

💸 What Gen Z & Alpha are up against, and why the system isn't rewarding hard work the way it used to

In this episode, Ana sits down with Julian from Mauro to break down what you actually need to know and action before 30 June. From dodgy deductions to sole trader traps, this one is packed with practical tips whether you're an employee, investor, or building something on the side.

In this episode, they cover:

💸 The most common tax mistakes the ATO is actively scrutinising right now (and how to avoid them)

💸 Working from home claims: the two methods, what records you actually need, and which one could give you a better deduction

💸 What "it's a tax write-off" actually means (and where most people get it wrong)

💸 Super contributions before 30 June, including the five-year carry-back rule you might not know you can use

💸 Sole trader vs company: when the switch makes sense and what happens to your tax rate if you wait too long

💸 What investors need to know about dividends, share sales, and why the ATO already knows more than you think

A first home buyer posted on the Oz Finance subreddit convinced that rising interest rates were about to swallow 84% of their income. The maths looked terrifying. The only problem wast that it was completely wrong.

Tash and Emma from The Broke Generation are back together again to break down exactly where this buyer's calculations fell apart, and why it's far more common than you'd think.

In this episode, they cover:

• The specific mistake that turned a manageable rate rise into a financial nightmare on paper
• Why the lending system already has a built-in buffer most borrowers don't know about
• How fear-driven headlines are making first home buyers worse at reading their own finances
• What to actually do if you're worried about rate rises and don't know where to start
