Thanks :)
I think before you can answer that question, you need an answer to this question: What's my plan?
Let's see… I don't have to pay any tax at all for the first $18000 pa. Then, only 19c in each dollar up to $37k, and higher rates above that, but nothing as high as working out to be 40% of income... And... being a…
