Think the Federal Budget won’t affect you? This one might be worth paying attention to.

In this episode of The Winner's Playbook, Josh and Billy break down the biggest proposed changes from the latest Federal Budget, including negative gearing, capital gains tax, trusts and bucket companies. They explain what could change, who may be impacted, and why property investors, business owners and retirees should be watching closely.

They also talk through some of the smaller wins, like the instant asset write-off, tax loss carry-back rules and worker tax offsets, while giving their honest take on whether these measures really go far enough. You’ll hear why superannuation and investment bonds may become even more important, and why rushing into big changes before the dust settles could be a mistake.

Whether you own property, run a business, use a trust structure or simply want to understand what this Budget could mean for your money, this episode gives you a clear, no-nonsense breakdown without the political noise.
