" If in super fund it's 15% and 10% if held over a year so taxation difference is minimal. Ironically a super fund gives you more encouragement to trade than if not in super fund. "



And when exactly can you remove the money from your super fund??? All well and good if your an old fart ready to retire in 5-10 years. But when you have 30+ years left for retirement having stacks of cash locked away is pointless and you could roll it into a few properties and have rental yields after trading and making cash, but once again this doesn't benefit you if your younger. Sure I'm all for trading via a self managed fund etc. if your age is appropriate, but your investment strategy must also take into consideration your age. I would rather have $2M in property earning crap rental yield which I can cash out when I want generating an income, rather than have that locked away for retirement that I may never even reach.
