Tesla’s robotaxi reality check, One Nation’s Super proposal & what would you do for $750k?

Tesla’s steering wheel-free Cybercab has hit the road, but the global robotaxi race is getting a lot more crowded, and increasingly, a lot more Chinese. Bryce and Alec unpack who’s actually leading autonomous driving, debate a proposal to let Australians divert part of their Super into their pay packets, and continue Super September by asking whether leaving your retirement savings in the default investment option could be costing you over the long run.In this episode:00:00:00 Who Is Winning The Robotaxi Race?00:02:42 Tesla Launches A Car With No Controls00:06:19 China Takes The Lead In Robotaxis00:10:20 Should You Be Able To Access Your Super?00:12:18 The Hidden Cost Of Taking Super Early00:16:43 Is Your Default Super Option Good Enough?00:19:18 How One Change Could Add $75000000:22:20 Why High Growth Can Make Sense When Young00:24:24 The Super Decision That Matters MostETFs and Stocks Mentioned: Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), Baidu (NASDAQ: BIDU), Pony AI (NASDAQ: PONY), WeRide (NASDAQ: WRD), Uber Technologies (NYSE: UBER), Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F)Share your thoughts via this link and help shape Betashares Super.
