I already do 5 years in, so he asked for advice so I gave him great advice. I know he won't listern but at least I have earned my Noddy badge for the day.... As for Simmers, why on gods green erath would you buy an SA Gold Miner. Go by 10k of Anglo's it is on Support right now.

pdk baby, put 20k each into SOL, BIL and AGL. Take the remaining 40k and go to Paris or Berlin or Warsaw for a year. Drink black coffee, drink red wine, let an older women take you on as a lover. Write bad poetry, develop a passion for Sartre, don't shave. Wear a beret if you must. Stop going on about going to a school for elitist little pri*ks, give yourself a chance to be anything other than a civil engineer.

Aha, here's the real modus operandi!! It was never really a Q of what to make with his money or whether SIM is good or BAD, He's already made his mind up that it'll be SIM but only needed the lemming concensus!! That's one of the 1st mistakes an amateur does.
It works as follows -
1. You decide on a share thats gonna make u rich! aka SIM
2. You ask the people around you (regardless of their expertise or knowledge) whether it is a good idea or not.
3. You WILL then ask until you find someone with tha same view as you, whether it takes asking 5, 10 or 50 people, and gladly accept their validation of what you already decided!
Its how the mind works, dont, that's not objective at all!

Pdk, to put what we are saying into perspective, Anglo'shas just had a R180 round trip in under 2 weeks thats a return ( on paper of 43% )no gearing. why on earth do you want to speculate on small cap *****!

john, got to ask, having just read your advice to pdk. should one have a sizeable chunk of change with which to dispose of, would those type of shares be what one should look at? bluechip in general? agl look good for long term. and the construction groups? they're huge at the mo and should be for the next few years, at least. what seperates the banks from each other, cost aside?
