The Fat Wallet Show from Just One Lap

The Fat Wallet Show is a show about questions. It’s about admitting that we don’t know everything, but that we’re willing to learn. Most of all, it’s about understanding as much as we can to make us all better investors. Phrases like, “I’m not sure” or, “Let me look that up and get back to you” or, “I don’t know” don’t exist in the financial services industry. If you ever had a financial question you were too embarrassed to ask, you know what we’re talking about. In this business, appearances matter, and nobody wants to seem like they don’t know how things work or what the outlook is for the buchu industry. It’s easy to excuse that little vanity, except that people in the investment industry are meant to service investors - people like you and me who need to figure out what to do with our money. There’s no such thing as a stupid question in this show. If you have unanswered financial questions, this is your opportunity to have them answered in a way that even I can understand.

Following last week’s investment crisis episode, indices seem to be on everyone’s mind. We decided to dedicate this episode to all things index. Navi wanted to know which ETFs we’ll be investing in this year. The Ashburton 1200 looks very appealing for us both. Nobody saw this coming - least of all us.

Frank Denys made a case for ETNs that practically had us throwing our money at him. It’s a product I intend to learn more about. In the meantime, I strongly suggest you direct your ETN questions to our friend Nerina Visser from etfSA.co.za.

Tim is so into ETFs he’s been reading SENS announcements. He realised that he doesn’t know how the delisting and listing of additional securities work with ETF providers. He was worried that it might be an ominous sign, but we reassure him.

What is the best thing to do with your tax-free account when you are already retired? Jim is 76 and not sure if he should be keeping his allocation in cash or ETFs. We help him think through his decision.

Fernando thought he found a workaround for our single ETF strategy by investing in a passively-managed unit trust. We have some bad news for him that might land us in trouble.
