By putting some of your pre-tax income into your super, you avoid paying tax on this money at your marginal rate.

- You are protected from the eyes of the public. Nobody knows your worth except you. In other investments, people can easily look at the assets of the business or your property (real estate) and come up with approximate worth of it.
- The rate of growth is far beyond the bank interest
