Hi All, Just venting my frustrations, for two days I have emailed the super I have like many of others have about trying to access some of my super to help out with the incoming house hold bills mortg...
Great advice @Nadi I think that is peoples best bet is a financial counselor to help with bills and mortgage etc., MOST Superannuation Funds DO NOT have income Protection built in, you have to do the homework.

If it werent for this, I would have been screwed big time. Otherwise you have to be terminal or destitute completely to get any assistance from Super. Ludicrous, so much needs to change....especially when I heard the other day that Breast Cancer is the NO. 1 highest diagnosed each year!!!
