I personally like personal deductible contributions cos we can adjust how much to contribute according to our financial situation instead of automatically contribution every pay period. 😊

I wrote to the responsible Minister about salary sacrifice being the employers contribution, and then the super was based on the gross pay, not the pay after salary sacrifice.
