Hi all,
I am a 35 year old currently earning (pre tax) $140k and usually a 10k bonus (post tax) on top annually.
From this I sacrifice 5% a year to then get a 5% superannuation match.
My mortgage is split ($1,250 fortnightly) with $780k owing and an offset (see the below) my state of play is.
\- Offset my portion $55k ( 95k in total across me/partner)
\- Other savings $30k in a savings account.
\- Vanguard Managed Fund $15k i drop $250 fortnightly in and $1.5k in ETF that I drop $100 a month in.
\- Shares = $12k value in two companies I initially invested $5k
\- Crypto $6k but it’s set and forget (XRP, Avalanche and I drop $50 a fortnight on bitcoin)
\- Super $170k total ( I salary sacrifice for matching as per above)
Basically = $85k savings but $55k of it in an offset
Shares/crypto/vanguard = $30kish
Super = set and forget
What adjustments can I make to maximise what I have? Should I divest the cash?
Changing the $250 a fortnight to say $400? And push some of my food/leisure spending?
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Best ways to build on what I currently have (Australian based)
