The Great Hedge Fund Rip Off Continues

One of the best wealth transference scams ever invented continues.   The same thing can be said for the domestic funds management industry – particularly where superannuation is concerned. Recent changes to remove the best interest provision will see investors even worse off courtesy of a return to the bad old days of belting people…

Diary Of A Pro Punter

This is actually quite interesting. Tuesday The working week almost always commences on a Tuesday, when I’m generally in the office by 8.00am.(Editor’s note: This ‘office’ is in fact larger than most houses.

Dickhead Headline Of the year

Well we are only five months into the year and I think I have found the winner of this years most useless piece of financial journalism.

Sultans Of Super Set On ‘Developing’ Your Wealth

I wish I had written this…. Our latter-day sultans of superannuation have breezily lavished a $20 million junket on their sales force and themselves to boot. Before this year’s Byzantium bash, the AMP held its ”conference” in Dublin, South Africa, Amsterdam, Colorado and Buenos Aires. If the behemoths of superannuation shell out two bob supporting…

Scariest Chart I have Seen For Awhile

I snipped the chart below from  How Americans Die – parts of this little booklet are not relevant locally since we dont have the same childish fascination with guns that Americans do but the chart below is probably universal to Western economies. What caught my eye was the expansion of the deaths related to Dementia, Alzheimer’s…
