    Hi all
    Im new here
    Ok I live offshore so I can't have SMSF

    My question is there any Super-Funds that buy Physical Gold and Silver?

    My thoughts are on my Super thats with BT Personal, With the US Dollar Failure looming in on us ! When the $ fails my Super vanish into thin air

    They don't offer anything at all Not even shares in Gold Silver companies

    So any advice will be most welcome
    Gaz

    Yes - you buy shares in the ETF, they buy and hold gold/silver

    Sorry but Mike has a vested interest in selling physical, and he would be referring to US ETFs. There's no retail super funds in Australia that directly buy bullion on behalf of members, so "because Mike said" isn't really applicable given the constraints of where super can be invested.
