    heres an idea.....


    Allow young people.....at the end of 5 years employment..... take out all of their Super for a house deposit.

    Lets say Joe earns $40k year

    9% Super x 5 years = $18,000

    "first homeowners grant"......The Goverment should also match dollar for dollar any contributions a young person makes out of his/her own pocket towards Super in the first 5 years of employment.

    Joe was contributing $25 week for 5 years = $6500

    Joe started work when he was 20.....he's now 25

    So he will get......

    $18,000 from his Super for a house deposit
    $6500 Government contribution.....reward for his self Super contributions

    $24,500

    Super at 25 years of age does nothing for Joe.....but it could help if he was able to use his Super for a house deposit....and was given an incentive to save at the same time.

    Just a thought.
