Forum Topics Strawman Classic

Having received the email earlier in the week, my initial interpretation was that the current portfolios will be used as the starting point for the new competition.   Whilst this may prove easiest from an administrative point of view, would like to point out the potential conflict where portfolios are re-assessed and changed in pursuit of 12 month performance versus the current arrangement (my perception anyhow) which is designed for achieving long term market beating returns. 
 

Essentially inducing a member behavioural shift from investing to trading. Maybe worth a re-think.

When does this competition launch? I heard it launched (discussed) on The Australian Investor's Podcast on October 2nd. 

I am very keen to get involved. 

 

Cheers

What about the idea of a million dollar straw person? I think it is a somewhat intriguing race to the first million straw dollar portfolio.

Competition details will be released this Monday... And I love the idea Rapstar of a race to $1m portfolio (a 10x return on starting capital) Watch this space
