If you take into consideration the closet investment equivalent to the risk factor of a pension, it would be getting the deeming rate.

The politicians keep waffling on about simplifying the tax system, so pay everyone a pension and simply pay your tax at end of the financial year - include the pension as assessable income for tax purposes.

Just use the pension as the tax free threshold for tax purposes.

$1 million dollars and the pension is about $34500 for a couple I suggest you talk to a financial planner if you think you can't do better than that.
