What is inside

Forty terms. Six places they hide.

The words that turn up in forms, ads, and meetings where everyone is nodding. Decoded once, in plain English, so they never make you feel behind again.

Super Tax Investing Banking & debt Property Insurance
Superannuation Guarantee
The percentage of your wage your employer must pay into your super. This is yours, not a favour. Worth checking it is landing.
Comparison rate
The advertised interest rate plus most fees, in one honest number. The advertised rate is the outfit. This is what is underneath.
Franking credits
A note that tax has already been paid on a dividend, so the same money is not taxed twice. That is the whole idea, despite how it is usually discussed.

Plus thirty-seven more, from salary sacrifice to negative gearing to binding death benefit nominations.

Why this exists

The financial system was not built with us in mind.

None of these words are as clever as their tailoring suggests. A language only a few people understand is a very effective way to keep everyone else quiet, nodding, and slightly apologetic.

You were never behind. You were never given the tools. This guide is one small piece of taking the suit off the system, in plain English, with nothing to sell you and no one telling you what to do.
