A column in the Weekend Australian in 2016 earned him international reputation[2][5][6] for supposedly blaming discretionary spending on brunch food as a factor behind declining home ownership among millennials.[7] The column created a furore on social media,[8][6][9] and sparked further debate on intergenerational housing affordability in Australia.[10][11] The phrase "smashed avo" has since become a recurring meme in Australia,[12] and has been repeated overseas.[2]
Bernard Salt was awarded the Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in the 2017 Australia Day Honours.[13] He was a partner of KPMG until his retirement in June 2017, and still acts as a special advisor to the firm.[14]
