In this week's Savings News Roundup, we talk through that whopper of a federal budget - probably the most consequential one we've seen in decades, particularly for Aussies that strive to save, invest and growth their wealth. Is it providing a fairer go, or merely blocking people from having a go?
We also examine how some banks may be leaving savings account customers behind in how they're passing along the RBA rate hike, and the sudden drop in home loan lending observed in the latest ABS data.
Then, in our Dollar Dialogue, we hear from Emeritus Professor of Finance and UNSW Business School Peter Swan, who does not hold back in his assessment of Treasurer Jim Chalmers' fifth federal budget, describing it as the "worst one he's ever seen" in his 50 years of budget-watching.
And of course, our savings tips - including using a financial planner and not letting social media influence your standards.
