motherfucking managers,
they would sell their mother.

With the US bailout bill just passed this area of equity investment looks a bit stronger but it still is in a precarious position.

Just like any investment one needs to realize the volatility involved. One of my funds have lost close to 4k in the past four months. I would like to learn about the Real Estate Development firm. 27% in 2008?

I’m hearing what you’re saying, but you’re not saying anything to me.

Job opportunities will be there in asset management but expect remuneration to be based on last 3 years not 12 months.

Does that mean Asset Management job opportunity wont grow? It is important to me since I am a Finance student in college.

Two things I’d like to point out that you might want to think about.

600% return over 6 years doesn’t mean anything, you have to look at consistent returns over 40 years(if investing for a pension)

There are more than a thousand funds out there, how did you manage to pick that one great fund? Will you be able to pick such great funds for the next 40 years or do you think this fund will continue to do well for the next 40 years until you retire?

Thanks for this video. Definitely makes you think about pension funds in general. Looking at the growth of the FTSE 100 over the last 10 yrs it has only returned 3.4% annually. If you then subtract the 1.5% management charge, you are left with 1.9% return per year. Better to put your money in a cash deposit account.

Well done you. I am just pointing out that the majority of fund managers of retail equity based funds do not seem to be recommending their own products to their own friends and family - based on my informal surveys lecturing over the last 5 years to managers controlling many billions of dollars of assets.

Tosh! 600% return since 2002 from one fund alone. Thanks very much!
