Attended @WilliamBuckAU webinar fed gov changes to CGT and trusts. Eye opening on how deep these changes will be. Biggest for me, pre 20 Sep 1985 assets acquired will lose permanent exemption. If have these post 30 June 2027, cap gains post this date will be subject to CGT

New report suggests the workday now ends at 4:39 p.m. — The average workday is 36 minutes shorter than it was in 2022, but that’s one of many changes to contemporary work, according to new findings from the ActivTrak Productivity Lab. ow.ly/22yU50VkVCA

Attended update on #workplacereform & #employeebenefits by #ABLLaw with legislative changes & new #caselaw examples on #samejobsamepay and #paysecrecy. My main takeaways - things are going to cost more in #Australia, what a gift to the unions, what a disincentive to employ people

Australia had largest fall in disposable income per capita over last 12 months in the OECD. Treasurer @JEChalmers has repeatedly blamed overseas factor as the reason for our inflation pain.

On discussing ethnically diverse women in leadership, @Macquarie CEO Shemara Wikramanayake doesn’t go by “you can’t be what you can’t see” but rather “you can’t be what you won’t see”. Her advice, “come on, step up, own it” applying it to all people – at Melbourne, Victoria

Nice article in @washingtonpost about #gin but it’s depressing to see what the prices are overseas for alcohol compared to Australia. Would definitely experience more local brands at those prices #tax Good to see an Australian brand featured @FourPillarsGin #drinkresponsibly
