^ What you're describing doesn't sound like dollar cost averaging at all though

Thanks for the suggestions mate. I listened to an episode of "the investors podcast" and it kind of scared me to be honest! It was an episode on Napoleon Hills Think and Grow Rich, and he had about 5 of his fellow investor friends on who formed their "mastermind group" on investing. They were...

i dont trust the numbers coming out of china. many companies dont divulge their numbers as theyre classified as "state secrets"

VHY has outperformed Australian shares in general very nicely over the last few years. And it most likely will continue to do so very nicely, for as long as rates stay low. However for the experiment, if you continued it on after interest rates rose again (not saying they will anytime soon)...

Yes that is a risk. However many quality companies in the ASX, not necessarily high yielding ones, have always been on high PEs. The market marks them up, since significant profit growth is so rare in the Australian share market. Take CSL, Ramsay, Dominos, REA for example High yielding shares...

Wow, well done on that pick! That's quite a massive amount to drop into a single company, were you worried about the risk? (i don't know your situation, you could have plenty more to be dropping around). Anyway, it's clearly paid off for you :)
