The charity of estranged Melbourne power couple Luke and Cate Sayers — which in 2023 had more than a dozen staff earning average salaries of over $120,000 — reports it now has none.

The much-heralded ‘News Media Bargaining Code’ only served to line the shallow pockets of mainstream media. The revised scheme is designed to change that, but will it? Kim Wingerei asks.

Markets seem bulletproof. World equities have pushed to all-time highs in the face of unresolved tensions in the Middle East and associated dangers for the world economy. ‘Buy-the-dip’ is alive and well. And ‘staying the course’ in the face of evident threats has once again proven sound advice.
What if markets failed to deliver over an extended period ...
… but we seem to appreciate it more.
Let me start by giving you some quick conclusions from studies on retirement spending and satisfaction. Then I’ll explain where those findings come from.
