I really should be reinvesting the dividends instead of spending them.

IG is going to start charging me $200 per year in fees just to hold onto the shares I bought through them. Luckily I can transfer them all to my CommSec account for free.

I now have shares in:
Aveo
ERM Power
G8 education
IOOF
Lynas
Monash IVF
Telstra
Thorn Group

Telstra has come good and I have been ahead overall for a while. But even with 8 different companies from different sectors it is still very volatile.

So where do you invest your money PN? If you have been hiding it under the bed the past 10+ years that you have been predicting economic armageddon then you would have made a loss.

If you have been hiding it under the bed the past 10+ years that you have been predicting economic armageddon then you would have made a loss.

Well, I did have shares, until late 2007, when I sold them!

Since then, I have taken the road of Term Investments in VARIOUS BANKS, whilst waiting for the next BIG SHARE CRUNCH, which is now IMMINENT!

PS - Knowing the exact date of the BIG CRUNCH, is pretty much impossible, as there is a lot going on!

That was a good opportunity to buy in. But well done for getting out in 2007 when everyone else was in FOMO mode. BTW, I think I am back in negative territory now.
