Tough question. Personaly I believe putting all your investment money on the stock market is dodgy, returns can be very good but the risk is also high. So look for a provider who splits the risk between stock market, property investment and fixed term. If you are either older or risk adverse look for a investment more heavily leaning to fixed term. With your contribution, the employers and the govt you have to say that could add up to a sizeable nest egg.
However saying that Super is such a political football in this country watch this space for the next election. |

Well most if all the investment outfits are falling over, Next it will be the Banks. Guess hide it under the bed is not safe once the benifishers get their benifit cut, You tell me what you do with your savings. Blow the lot on overseas holiday and come back to join the rest on a benifit. There is tons of jobs for those on the benifit.LOL
Well according to Key there is, And probably on $5.00/hr. when he finished. |

| believe it or not what they're not saying about Aussie super is the majority of funds have actually been performing poorly for quite a few years. |

No, one does not need to hide their money under the mattress or other less thought of places, for so called safety, as may be suggested.
Re. EQUITIES:
As it is known that Stocks are cyclical & 'Markets do not rise forever', one does need to be astute, study trends and lack greed, to make a reasonable return from investments.
Re. TRENDS:
Anyone other than Traders, or those with a "hedge" that remain towards the end of a roaring stock/BULL market, that has exhorbitant Price Earnings Ratios, will eventually see much of their profits dissappear.
It was not difficult to predict the end of the latest BULL market. All the overheated signs of 1987 and worse were apparent. I cashed up my remaining shares during August 2007 and will remain so until opportunities emerge. While most companies shares will likely drop substantially during a Bear market, there is the odd company that may benefit, eg. a debt collection agency - unfortunately, a case of profiting from someone elses misery.
As NZ begins to emege from recession there are companies that will initially fare better than others. These are the trends to study and take advantage of. |

| reason why super funds are doing poorly is so working class retires with no or little money. i never had a super fund yet and never will. |
