If our leaders are going to commit $450m taxpayer funds to something, they should be ready and prepared to answers questions, good or bad.

Very true, time will tell.

This poster knows!

Have another avocado?

The flow on effects of previous rises might take a bit longer to be fully seen, but I daresay they are going to do another rise or two before the year is out. It does also depend on the situation around the world to some degree as well.

Still not as low as Betashares A200 ETF at 0.04%.

Noting that VAS is ASX300 versus ASX200 for the Betashares ETF, not that it should make a ton of difference.

Yes!

I haven’t seen an announcement for this year, however last year their schedule was:

Vanguard Personal Investor annual tax statements will be issued in two tranches

Investors holding Vanguard Managed Funds only – Tuesday 2 August 2022
Investors holding Vanguard Managed funds and/or ETFs and/or Direct Shares – Thursday 18 August 2022

Annual investor statements issued – Monday 12 September 2022

So I imagine you should hear something from them over the coming months.

No probs! 👍

So many tears were shed 😂
