Oh, really? I didn't know that.

Regardless, I refuse to count any superannuation I got from the $300 worth of work I did as an undergraduate as a "mutual fund" :P I don't think the legislation had been passed back then (1998) anyway.

I think the fact that ALL australian workers get superannuation makes this question rather counterproductive: I think not having to work during school/uni is a privilege (one I certainly appreciated)
