Making sense of the Federal Budget… with the help of the opinion makers
This morning, we pointed you in the direction of the best analysis from major industry associations and companies. This afternoon, in the spirit of good communication we have done the same with some of the most useful commentary from journalists, opinion makers and industry publications alike.
We hope that you find the following links interesting and informative. We did.
The Australian
The Australian is claiming to have the ‘nation’s best budget coverage and commentary’ in a special edition.
Visit the link for a roundup from some of the most senior journalists in the country:

Sydney Morning Herald
Senior business commentators deliver their commentary:

Australian Financial Review
The AFR has ‘authoritative and comprehensive coverage from the nation’s top political, business and financial writers’ to offer. There is also a short video by political editor, Laura Tingle, with a big picture summary.

Crikey
For some independent journalism, and some strong opinion, Crikey has coverage of the Budget and its consequences from a number of different perspectives. Look here for views that can sometimes stray from the mainstream.

Business Spectator
Business Spectator has in-depth budget analysis and coverage including pieces by Alan Kohler and Robert Gottliebsen.

Financial Observer
The Financial Observer has a number of interesting pieces on the Budget, with the lead article focusing on the fact that the super system has not been changed.
http://www.financialobserver.com.au/
Financial Standard
The Financial Standard has a Budget wrap up with a focus on superannuation and the responses of industry bodies.

Wealth Professional
Wealth Professional has an interesting article about what the Budget means for planning firms.
Professional Planner
Professional Planner focuses on the impact of the Budget on personal superannuation.
So, in conclusion, now that you have read Wayne’s World Part 1, the response of industry associations, and Wayne’s World Part 2, the response of media and opinion makers, the 2013 Budget should make perfect sense.
We hope we’ve helped.
