      <title>Leaving Australia for Tax Purposes? The ATO Already Knows Your Plan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Moving to Dubai to pay less tax is all over social media, but leaving the Australian tax system is a lot harder than packing your bags. If you've ever looked at your tax bill and thought about leaving, the ATO is already tracking more than you think: your travel, your bank accounts, even your family ties. Jase is working with a client who's actually making the move, and walks through what it takes to genuinely separate from the Australian tax system, and the two things that follow you no matter where you go.</p>
<p>On this episode, we discuss:</p>
<p>(00:00) Intro<br>
 (00:34) The Trend of Moving Overseas to Pay Less Tax<br>
 (02:29) A Real Client Moving to Dubai, $100 Pizza and $50 Coffees<br>
 (04:43) What the ATO Actually Tracks When You Leave Australia<br>
 (06:14) The Resides Test, Domicile Test, and 183 Day Rule<br>
 (07:54) Why Intent Matters More Than Anything to the ATO<br>
 (09:56) Your HECS Debt Follows You Overseas<br>
 (11:43) Why You Can't Access Your Super When You Leave<br>
 (13:32) How the ATO Tracks You With Open Data and AI<br>
 (15:27) What Happens If You Keep Your Australian Property<br>
 (17:38) Foreign Resident Tax Rates Start at 32.5%<br>
 (19:25) The ATO's $50 Billion Tax Debt Book<br>
 (20:27) Departure Prohibition Orders and Enforcement<br>
 (21:43) $30,000 to Set Up a Company in Dubai</p>

 (04:16) Australia's $1 Trillion Government Debt<br>

      <title>Are Family Trusts Still Worth It In 2026?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Family Trusts can be a seriously powerful structure for income distribution and asset protection, but they only work well when you’re across the rules and the deadlines. We talk through how trust distributions actually work, what needs to be documented before 30 June, and what changes in ATO reporting mean now that trust distributions are showing on pre-fill reports. If you’ve got a family trust or you’re thinking about setting one up, this is the stuff you want to be across so it does what it’s meant to do.</p>
<p>On this episode, we discuss:</p>
<p>(00:00) Intro<br>
 (00:19) Family Trusts: Powerful Structure Or Problematic?<br>
 (01:14) How Income Splitting Works In A Family Trust<br>
 (02:27) Asset Protection And Why Sole Traders Can Be Exposed<br>
 (04:00) The 30 June Deadline For Trust Distribution Minutes<br>

      <itunes:summary>Today we look at why Singapore’s tax system delivers stronger incentives for business and workers, from 17% company tax to lower personal tax rates and no capital gains. We compare the cost-of-living trade-offs, how innovation is supported, and what Australia could learn from a model that rewards progress instead of punishing it.</itunes:summary>

      <title>Is Your Super Really Safe? How $1.2 Billion in Super Was Lost</title>

      <title>Your Guide to Buying and Financing a Business</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to Episode 191 of The Numbers Game! In this episode, we get into buying and financing businesses in Australia. We explore the fundamentals of acquiring a business, including the importance of due diligence, evaluating your readiness, financial planning, and the critical role of professional advice.
