Welcome back to another episode of the 360 Money Matters Podcast!
In Australia, school fees have recently risen dramatically. The total cost for 13 years of schooling amounts to $102,807 if you are planning to send your child to a Victorian government school. Cost will only be higher if you are planning to send your child to a private school.
Today, we are joined by Amy Parsons, Business Development Manager at Futurity Investment Group. We will talk about how you can plan for education with the help of education bonds. These bonds can help save for these big education costs, provide choice of investments, and allow you to do so in a cost-effective manner.
This topic is relevant, especially since Australia is currently experiencing inflation and rising costs. We cover how you can strategize your family’s education!
