  6. Received this e-mail from EasyEquities We’re giving you first dibbs! You might have heard about the new Satrix Property and ILBI ETF's which will be available to buy on EasyEquities from 24 February 2017. For those of you who are keen on getting first dibbs on these ETF’s, Satrix has offered you the opportunity to participate in an Initial Public Offering (IPO). This means you’ll be able to put in a request to be the first to buy the new shares at their opening price when they become available. Need to knows For each rand you invest, you will receive 1 Letter of Allotment (LA) which will be credited to your EasyEquities account on 20 February 2017. Think of the LA as a record of the amount that you are willing to invest, until the conversion is announced and the actual ETF/s are credited to your account. We will notify Satrix of the total amount requested by our users and they will in turn purchase the underlying constituents of the ETF, less any costs.

On Friday 24 February 2017, the listing date, those LA’s will be removed from your EasyEquities account and your account will be credited with the new ETF/s accordingly. This offer closes on 5pm on Wednesday, 15 February 2017, so if you want first dibbs - get in there!
  7. I have the same sentiment regarding TAS, so much positive articles and news, yet clearly the market sees something else. They must probably have an incredible PR department
  8. Yes, yes it is, 441 soldiers ready to shoot Zuma in his fat face. OR... He will kill the opposition today, literally and figuratively.
  9. Very good documentary about Warren Buffett Becoming Warren Buffett 2017 (HBO Documentary Films) [video=youtube]https://youtu.be/2VlojxrCp9Q With a net worth of more than $60 billion, Warren Buffett is truly a one-of-a-kind billionaire. Now 86, the legendary investor still lives in a modest home in Omaha, and continues to drive himself to the office every morning to manage Berkshire Hathaway, the fourth-largest public company in the world. But more surprising than his humble lifestyle and self-effacing personality are Buffett’s moral integrity and unique mind, which drove him not only to become the most successful businessman in the world, but also an unparalleled philanthropist. With unprecedented access to his day-to-day personal life, Becoming Warren Buffett tells the improbable story of how an ambitious, numbers-obsessed boy from Nebraska became one of the richest, most-respected men in the world. The definitive documentary on Buffett, this candid portrait sheds new light on a man who has helped shape the way Americans view capitalism and, more recently, philanthropy. Told primarily in Buffett’s own words, the film features never-before-released home videos, family photographs, archival footage and interviews with family and friends. Buffett, along with partner Charlie Munger, would build his fortune at Berkshire Hathaway, a struggling textile company that he turned into a behemoth holding corporation with stakes in Coke, Heinz, Geico and other blue-chip companies. Tracing his ascent from first-time investor to business maven, the documentary delves into the highs and lows of Buffett’s career and personal life, from becoming a father of three and the world’s richest businessman, to weathering the Salomon Brothers treasury bond trading scandal, which threatened his sterling reputation, the loss of his wife and first love, Susie Thompson Buffett, and what led him to make the largest philanthropic donation in history. Kunhardt Films’ HBO credits include the Emmy-nominated Nixon by Nixon: In His Own Words, the Emmy-nominated Gloria: In Her Own Words, the Emmy-winning Teddy: In His Own Words and the Emmy-winning Jim: The James Foley Story. Becoming Warren Buffett is a co-production of HBO and Kunhardt Films; directed by Peter Kunhardt; produced by Teddy Kunhardt and George Kunhardt. For HBO: senior producer Jacqueline Glover; executive producer Sheila Nevins
  10. Certainly interesting concidering the current levels, but the overall image of implats to me looks like a failing business, I am new to resources so I am still struggling to make any sense of this sector since it just raises one red flag after the next in my brain I am such a noob still!
  11. Born Rich [video=youtube]https://youtu.be/8o46HH-TfNY First-time filmmaker Jamie Johnson, a 23-year-old heir to the Johnson & Johnson pharmaceutical fortune, captures the rituals, worries and social customs of the young Trumps, Vanderbilts, Newhouses and Bloombergs in the documentary special, BORN RICH, a 2003 Sundance Film Festival selection. Offering candid insights into the privileges and burdens of inheriting more money than most people will earn in a lifetime. Narrated by Johnson, a history student at New York University, and filmed over a three-year period, BORN RICH spotlights ten young adults who came into the world knowing they would never have to work a day in their lives. These society-column names speak frankly about the one subject they all know is taboo: money. With his unfettered access to this rarified subculture, Johnson explores topics such as the anxieties of being “cut off,” and the misconception that money can solve all problems. “Most wealthy people are told from a very young age not to talk about money,” notes Johnson. “Consequently, they are extremely reluctant to speak to people about their backgrounds. Also, many of the subjects in my film already have more public recognition than they may want, and have very little to gain by receiving more.” Among the peers Johnson interviews are: Josiah Hornblower, heir to the Vanderbilt and Whitney fortunes; S.I. Newhouse IV, of the Conde Nast Newhouses; Ivanka Trump, daughter of Donald Trump; and Georgianna Bloomberg, daughter of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. The story begins with the advent of the filmmaker’s 21st birthday, and his mingled anticipation and fear of receiving his portion of the family inheritance. Unsure about the future direction of his own life, Johnson decides to document the experiences of his privileged peers in dealing with their family’s legacies. He explores their candid perspectives on subjects ranging from life philosophies and trust funds to prenuptial agreements and career choices, ultimately revealing their common struggle to discover their own identity.
  12. Yes of course, it's by far the easiest and simplest way for treasury to get money needed for development and reducing our ever increasing debt. I see Dlamini-Zuma will replace Pravin Gordhan after the after treasury budget vote. Interesting times ahead of in this country.

    Hello :)

    Welcome to the forum @E=MC2+1 What we need on this forum is a thread about charts! Call it Charts of Interest or something and just post Technical analysis of stocks each day. I enjoy looking at charts although I am not a trader myself. Almost like what she does on twitter, but just in a thread - https://twitter.com/Richards_Karin
  14. I guess State capture and corruption will be a big focus point? It will be interesting to see how he (Zuma) plays this one down considering he is the main culprit in the whoe State capture and corruption debacle of the ANC.
  15. Hamster, two points. You can put this portfolio together, but it's aimed at the person I call my sisters neighbour. When my sister needs help she calls me, but who does her neighbour call? Likely they wander into their bank and get ripped off Hence these portfolios. As for the fee, a flat fee is exactly what I campaign for, no percentage of AUM which is the rip off. You pay one flat rate regardless of size, like if you went to the dentist. They don't charge based on your net worth, they charge on what they do. Percentage of AUM as a fee must die. Lastly, first year is free as ABSA covering the 100bucks. Welcome to the forum @Simon, really cool to see all these industry guys on here. Thanks for clarifying the fee, it makes sense. I like the sisters neighbours analogy I think that speaks to what this forum is about as well since it is like you said who does the neighbour call, where does the neighbour go to ask and get answers. (Hopefully here and Justonelap.com )
  16. I saw this, what is the 100 bucks fee for? Should be cheaper mimicking it in EE not? (Look what their ETF consists off and buy it yourself.)
  17. The Cult Next Door [video=youtube]https://youtu.be/eigYIBVnHH4 Critically acclaimed director Vanessa Engle has spent the last three years putting this film together in order to expose the extraordinary tale of a bizarre cult which came to light back in 2013 after a sensational news story broke. It involved three women who emerged from a small flat located in Brixton, south London, after being held captive for decades. This cult can be traced back to the 1970s when it’s leader Aravindan Balakrishnan, who was a student at the time, formed a small political sect. He believed in an international communist revolution and therefore wanted to follow in the teachings of China’s Chairman Mao. The Cult Next Door includes exclusive interviews with two of the women who managed to escape, these are Aisha Wahab, who is a 72 year old Malaysian woman and Katy Morgan-Davies, Balakrishnan’s daughter, who was brought up in captivity. This film provides an excellent vantage to see how this small left-wing group managed to evolve into a crazy cult.
