This week we’re back with a Q&A episode, tackling three big questions that have been landing in our inbox from our listeners.

• New and exciting Annuity products: With a wave of new products hitting the market, we unpack what advisers should watch out for, why a healthy dose of skepticism is essential, and the dangers of shiny innovation that later gets grandfathered or disappears.
• Tax-deductible advice fees: how to think about in-super vs out-of-pocket charging
• Insurance commissions. Do they really serve advisers, or just the insurers? We share our own experiments with nil-com, rebates, and referrals, and why Independent advisers are better (jokes, they aren't)
• Drown-Drought cycles for referrals and workload: We get a bit vulnerable on this, as we haven't figured it out yet.

It’s a meaty one, blending the usual product skepticism, practice pragmatism, and a few rants about the system (as always).
