100k what would you do with it?

[Ou grote]

I'm not saying that it will definately happen... just much more likely than than from all the other suggestions

If you did that in around 2002, you'd be right.

I still say SATRIX RAFI, but you have to wait for it to go down before you buy. This fund outperforms most managed funds due to fees. Rafi is the best stocks on the top 40 with good fundamentals. Why invest with a managed account and pay management fees when you can get Satrix at a very low fee AND outperform most boutique managers.

Alpha.

And the tracker funds can't exactly replicate it's benchmark, that is impossible.

I have money going into the RAFI as well, monthly debit order.
And a a few other mangaed funds.

Alpha.

Which appears to be conspicuously absent with most funds over the long term.

Called Gearing in financial circles.
Much less risk than most other suggestions.

5 to 1 leverage and its supposed to be less risky than the other suggestions? /falls over laughing

Any tips on making that 100k into say 300k over the next 2 years?

I'd buy property or a share in property as the amount is a bit small. Then wait.

I'd put it straight into my bond account...

Trade a naked CDS or some exotic derivative,like the investment banks prop traders do,100 to 300 is only 3 times gearing , could either loose or make alot with derivatives.Or as warren buffet says put all your eggs in one basket and watch that basket.Personally I think if you want to diversify buy satrix but if you want to buy equities dont buy more than 3 differnt ones but know those companies you are buying for sure

could either loose or make alot with derivatives

Not if you hedge your position effectively.
