In this Australian Retirement Podcast episode, your hosts Drew Meredith, from Wattle Partners, and James O’Reilly, from Northeast Wealth, work through five high-stakes mistakes they keep seeing in DIY retirement plans — from AI tools that forget income tax and the age pension, to notice-of-intent timing errors that quietly delete tax deductions worth tens of thousands. They also unpack a clever (and entirely legal) condition-of-release strategy involving the Census, plus how to think about gifting an adult child a house deposit without blowing up your own retirement. Topics covered - Why AI-built and industry-fund retirement calculators keep missing income tax and the age pension - Treating AI like a sharp intern — useful, but you still have to check the work - End-of-financial-year planning: why “June” is too late and what to be doing in March and April - Notice of intent to claim — the timing trap that quietly deletes tax deductions - Excess concessional contributions: how the ATO’s flexibility has changed the game - Property settlements vs exchange-of-contracts — why the date you assume isn’t the tax date - The Census condition-of-release trick: unlocking tax-free super after 60 - Cash-out and re-contribution — saving adult-child beneficiaries tens of thousands in tax - How secure are annuities really? APRA, statutory funds, and what the government guarantee does (and doesn’t) cover - Gifting an adult child a $150k house deposit — gifting limits, the 5-year deeming rule, and why a guarantor arrangement is often the better move Resou…","meta_description":"Drew Meredith and James O’Reilly on why AI-built retirement modelling routinely gets the numbers dangerously wrong, plus the end-of-financial-year traps a…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2301,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/australian-retirement-podcast-6957560/episodes/retirement-modelling-where-ai-gets-it-wrong-plus-eofy-traps-every-retiree-should-avoid/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/australian-retirement-podcast-6957560/retirement-modelling-where-ai-gets-it-wrong-plus-eofy-traps-every-retiree-should-avoid.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
