I did the research a few years ago and moved from BT (Westpac) into Sunsuper. Fees were much lower. Try taking a look at the ratings websites like Canstar. Usually they provide comparisons.

Low premium gold in recognisable form imho. Reasoning is that if you buy higher premium coins and hold them for that amount of time you could see a return above your preserved wealth, but you pay the opportunity cost of that premium being tied up for 25 years. You might be better up freeing...

Gold got smashed in the GFC. It went on a bull run only a year or so afterwards. http://www.kitco.com/news/2014-10-13/2008-Financial-Crisis-Set-Stage-For-Gold-Rally.html Given that miners respond like geared investments against the spot price, you would most likely see a huge fall in mining...

No idea about the legality but my guess would be that it's OK as it's not a coin. I mean think about how many everyday items have bank notes printed on them (T-shirts, phone cases, etc). These are not prohibited because they can't be confused with legal tender. I would argue the same principle...

A couple of years ago I ordered a mixed tube of maples and peregrine falcons from Perth Bullion. Most of the coins had spots when they arrived (some heavily), but at the time I was just about to travel couldn't do much about it. I forgot about it and 6 months later when I was adding to my...

Welcome mate. If you have been stacking since 2001 you would have seen a very nice return on your stack!:)

Yes generally speaking the smaller the coin or bar the higher the % premium over spot. That's why it pays to stick to larger bars when buying silver in particular. You can pay a huge premium when you buy smaller coins and bars which you may or may not get back later when you sell. With gold it's...

Welcome iliria! I've been stacking for three years now. Best advice is to educate yourself and not jump into any strategy too quickly. Stacking requires patience, discipline and the ability to keep your emotions in check. Most of all you need to read, listen and then make up your mind as to...

Yeah babies can get quite a bit of gold but usually in small quantities (3.75g). Going by the article it looks like they are trying to start competing with other world bullion coin series, so hopefully it will be legal tender and sold with a competitive premium. If so, perhaps larger dealers...

Just reading that the South Korean mint is releasing an annual bullion round/coin in June. Not too much detail but from the article photo it looks like they have three sizes. The article title refers to a 'coin' but the article then mentions a 'medal'. Hopefully it will be denominated as legal...

Yep...and gold. Good for shtf scenarios. It's hard to spend and holds it's value.

There's a book called 'the millionaire next door' that covers this topic very well. I recommend it.

I spent a good year reading a lot of material to get into it. At the end of the day I took Warren Buffet's advice: If you aren't prepared to read company reports 5 hours a day, then invest in low fee index funds and do it monthly (dollar cost averaging). Boring, but you'll get a very...

Those figures consider compounding dividends, right?........

Hi all, My father recently gave me his coin collection and asked me to sell it for him. There are some pennies and half pennies of varying dates, a small bunch of old world coins and some RAM granny bait. Most of it fits into a jam jar lol. I have no idea about numismatics and I was...
