    Thanks again, everyone. That's all pretty helpful information and we will do more research on what everyone here has suggested.

    Agree on more or less everything you said mate..

    It just comes down to risk appetite and end goal. Super funds example was more to get the point across.

    However, personally know few who are doing well on commercial side playing lower end of the town..

    Cheers,

    Your question on how to invest:

    Borrow against the main residence, and buy more property and/or invest in shares.
    You could lend capital to your spouse and she could lend capital to you. This could be used to buy property or shares, but prob should be left until your borrowing capacity is tapped out.

    By lending to each other you can minimise risk, maximise tax savings and estate planning strategies.

    I wouldn't advise you on what to invest in though - or even if you should invest.
