    When contributors refer to managers as monkeys I lose interest in anything else they contribute. Another for my ignore list.

    I now have two and they are both on this page.

    So BRM, MLN, KFL are all managed by Fisher Funds. Does anyone here know if they apply the same methodology of canabilising the working capital to all these "Funds".

    Monkeys throwing darts at a the top 50 stocks in each of the markets BRM, KFL or MLN invest in would have definitely done better.

    And you only need to feed them peanuts and bananas.

    Mind you, some here seem to like the leftovers from the top table each AGM so the poor monkeys cannot possibly win this battle.

    Well said Balance, however if said darts are trading at a discount to market, and when you can look at the value of the underlying companies that also at times are under-priced then this has the probability of outweighing the peanuts and banana's we are feeding them.

    I'd say it's hard to predict the short term and long term with what they can choose to add/subtract from the portfolio at the prices that seem illogical to exit the market at. But in the medium term when the holdings of the company are predominately consistent then there is a bit of money to be had; which seems good for a park of some cash whilst working out the next investment to look into compared to the bank.

    I'd hate to be one of the people who used this as a true investment and went in at the start.

    I keep on getting tempted by the dividend but then that temptation soon withers away when I come back to this thread. They seem to be buying back a lot of their shares, would they be doing this if it was a house of cards?

    I was the same, the dividend looks great but when you scratch the surface it's scary.

    There's better options out there. Take a look at Birmanboys website for some other ideas. Dividendyield.co.nz

    I believe that's the site where I 'discovered' Barramundi. Really wish he would update the website to something with a more modern feel...

    Oh...oh.. oh..cut me with your knife you ungrateful wretch. Thats a 'structured" design which is purposefully arranged to feel comfortable for "non-modern" folk. You know..the types of conservative individuals, or, dare I say it...older folk who understand that that the banks give SFA and the share market is littered with the desiccated corpses of "investors" who thought they could certainly do better than all the other investors who had lost money previously...because ..you know they were up with times and MODERN.

    Rumour has it that Cat sites are a close second in search rankings to porn sites. Grumpy cats, as much as I love all cats are just a distraction from the real purpose in life. .........Which is, he asks? Making money....so you can keep your felines, pampered, fed to their requirements, nurtured and provided with the best vet care available. There's an old saying NBT, which you would be wise to heed. Dogs have owners and cats have staff. Regardless, thanks for your worthy suggestion and I appreciate your referencing the site.
