This week’s episode is a big one! I’m joined by Kate Thwaites MP, the new Assistant Minister for Ageing, Social Security, and Women. We discuss the latest age pension changes and what the future might hold for the pension system. If you’re planning to rely on the age pension or just curious about the additional benefits as you approach retirement—like the Pension Concession Card, Commonwealth Seniors Health Card, or Rent Assistance—this is a must-listen!
