Conversation excerpt · 6:26-7:25

[6:26] So, and the reason I do this is um there [6:32] is such a gross misconception [6:35] and misunderstanding of the [6:37] superanuation industry [6:39] >> that literally whenever I walk into a [6:41] room and somebody introduces me and say [6:43] she's going to talk to you about [6:43] superanuation, I feel the life sucked [6:46] out [laughter] of the auditorium and I [6:50] see shoulders slump and people go musty [6:54] and and So I take it as a somewhat of a [6:58] personal challenge every day to help [7:00] people understand that actually [7:01] superanuation is this incredible vehicle [7:04] for wealth. [7:05] >> Yeah. [7:06] >> And it doesn't have to be complex. It [7:09] can be really simple, [7:10] >> but it also doesn't have to be boring. [7:11] >> And that's what I think people is. [7:14] >> But and that comes from a like just a [7:16] gross misunderstanding around it. [7:19] >> And the reason that there is a gross [7:20] misunderstanding is because there's no [7:22] understanding and there's no education. [7:24] Yeah. And there is no such thing as [7:25] super school.
