How This Works — Super as a Tax Strategy

💰
You contribute
Money goes from your business income into your super account before income tax is calculated
📉
Your taxable income drops
The ATO taxes you on a lower income — you pay less income tax at your marginal rate
📈
Super grows
Your fund pays 15% tax on contributions (not your marginal rate) and invests it for your retirement
