I've heard 100g gold bars are the most popular in the world for personal investment - mainly driven by demand in Asia? But TBPH, I've stuck to coins only for gold. Only a small premium, and they're much prettier than bars. Presumably hard to fake as well, which is good if you decide to sell...

^^This. I claimed Youth Allowance over the winter while I was at Uni (in Summer I had enough work that I couldn't claim Centrelink). But at <$300/fortnight, the tax on my first year full-time paid off all the money I received from the government throughout Uni (probably including those 2x $900...

Fill your tank in the city before you leave - surely your Liberty will do >600km on a tank? Other than that, trip looks good.

Where do you buy these from??

Anyone here have an account with ABC Bullion? I'm not a fan of having to provide ID to open an account (even for orders under $5000 ?), but there are a few things they have cheaper than the competition...

RE: Perth Mint site made Poseidon purchase a lottery If Perth Mint had made Poseidon purchase an actual lottery, it would have been a whole lot better that whatever you call that cluster-turtle we went through yesterday.

Any idea if they're still available in person?

Estimated order placement wait time: 137 Minutes WTF?

Really? Trying to order 3, I get: "Item added to shopping cart. The quantity ordered was above the limit allowed per person (this includes past orders). The maximum allowable amount has been added to your order."

Darn. I was hoping to buy about 5, trade a couple for Zeus'es, and build 2 or 3 full sets (1 to keep, the rest to sell towards the end of the series). Oh Well. I reckon this could drive up the price of Zeus. Having a limit on Poseidon should increase the number of (new) collectors of the...

The government wants to remove the $100 note, and potentially even the $50 note. Makes taxing you easier. Australia to lose the $100 note

It could also be that the 1oz Kook mintage is capped (at 600k now, I think?), while the Koala mintage is whatever demand drives it up to.

I always pick-up my orders, but never had a problem...

Gold: Unless you're rolling in cash, 1oz Au is too expensive. I only look at 1/4oz and $200 coins. Silver: For barter: 50c round. For wealth preservation: 1oz Kooks/Lunars/Pandas Bullion Long term: Reputable bars 10oz - 1kg I don't really get the appeal of ASEs... Boring to look at, zero...

But if the government runs a surplus this year, that reduces their interest payments next year. Then next years taxes can be reduced a corresponding amount, and that money can be invested by the private sector. Also, the money the government pays back goes to the lenders. They now have more...
