What have you done with them? is it just sitting in a 7% saver or whatever? Be interested to know where most of you have decieded on what path you want to go...?? Have any of you invested any money on the Australian Small Scale Board? ASSOB? cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/48663-where-have-you-stuck-your-money-lately/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grudgee Every Mod's Favourite Member Member 1,496 Member For: 17y 1m 6d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I've taken some sizable hits in the Aussie stock market, but have been toying with some warrants (puts) that have eased the losses. I'm now chipping back into Aussie shares, as many stocks have been punished well beyond what I believe is reasonable. There are a some fantastic opportunities out there, if you have the balls. Also continuing with my property investments, but I'm playing it cautious, as I don't want to over gear myself. Lifestyle/comfort is king.

jsmith Donating Members 712 Member For: 17y 5m 17d Gender: Male Location: Blacktown Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I have been putting all my money into a bloody company called Shell. Haven't seen any returns other than smoke at the moment!!Seriously though I do have some shares floating around that have fluctuated seriously opver the last few years. At one stage I had lost about 33% but have know come back into the positive with about a 10% gain and climbing every month so suppose it's not that bad. Would have been better in a term deposit though.
