Shifted my Superannuation to Future Super (aussie.zone)

After watching a lot of Some More News and Climate Town, I made the shift from Hesta (which has $2,000,000,000 invested in fossil fuels, and most recently in the new Woodside gas plant) to Future Super.

Yes, the fees are significantly worse, but if I'm putting my own financial gain ahead of the planet, I'm no better than all the banks investing in fossil fuels.

Future Super is a retail fund yeah?

[–] threeduck@aussie.zone 2 points 11 months ago

A public offer retail fund, yep.

Good person. I just switched to hostplus to use their socially responsible investment fund too. Feels good to know your future self isn't benefiting off future misery

What made you go Future Super over the alternatives like Australian Ethical?
