## Resource

Happy Saturday! We’re back with another batch of listener questions. This week you asked: 🌏 With Adam and Adir increasingly frustrated about life in Australia, have they ever seriously considered leaving for somewhere like Singapore or the UAE? 🏠 As a late-30s renter in Sydney with a young family, how should the recent budget shape thinking about the future? 💰 With CGT changes increasing the rate of capital gains tax on Australian residents, why are non-residents still exempt from CGT on certain assets? Got something you want Adam and Adir to tackle next? Drop it in the comments!
