Beginners Guide to Sharesies KiwiSaver

[@Marcel_DL650]

Thanks for the content. But you didn't talk about the gov. contribution. How is this effecting the return of a kiwi saver fund compared to S&P500 ETF. Cheers

[@AaronHamkins]

That’s a valid point - I’ll have to re do the calculations and post them in the comments.

Is investing in smartshare US 500 etf the same as investing in vanguard S&P 500?

[@ANTHONY1983--]

It tracks the Vanguard S+P500. I have it as a self select pick @5% in my KiwiSaver on Sharesies

[@AaronHamkins]

The smartshares US 500 ETF tracks the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF. So you’ll have the same performance between the funds.

Where do I find the calculator you used in the video

[@AaronHamkins]

I added it to the description box. It appears they don't have the calculator on the website anymore just the chart that compares prices between the different brokers.

Thanks for this video, gives me something to think about

[@AaronHamkins]

Are you thinking of trying out Sharesies KiwiSaver?

[@RIPsookie]

@@AaronHamkins yes, toying with the idea, just haven’t been quite sure if it’s a good idea or not.

[@AaronHamkins]

@@RIPsookie I haven't personally done it myself either. It does look like quite an interesting feature.
