    Interesting read.

    Mark fails to give one solution to the transfer of the holiday home, in the last coupe of paragraphs - that is for those who start a pension at 60, they can then sell the holiday home, tax free, cash out that out from super and gift to children. They may also be able to do an out specie transfer.

    Then at age 66 they will not have the gift counted and may be eligible for an Age Pension. Apparently there is a 5 year look back.
