SunSuper "slashes" fees - I know that you journalists are trying to generate headlines but, truth be known, SunSuper's fees are not all that good to start with - I can access any number of super funds where the fees are lower, the returns are better, the tax is lower, the reporting is far better - it is simply "HYPE" and "BS" - either give up this crappy reporting or speak to someone who actually knows what is going on [such as me].
I am sorry to be so BLUNT but your reporting is simply INACCURATE,
