Over what time period is that performance?

Some of the resources are shares I am looking to buy in the next 2-6 months.

+1 on what Patrick said. If you are not going to get the tax deduction for RA contributions (like when you are working offshore), there is little point in tying yourself into an RA.

ETFs or shares all the way!

Currently my Portfolio (Beginner / Not even novice)

STXIND    33.3%
STXFIn     33.3%
DBX USA  33.3%

Hoping to add some blue chips in the next 6 months.



How closely do these DB ETFs actually track their respective indices?

I have spent some time in Porto and the Douro valley as I am a keen wine (and port) drinker. It is pretty hot in mid summer in spite of the steady winter rain season. Very pretty part of the country.

We have friends in Lisboa and also Sintra so had good times there as well.

I am quite envious of you.  ;)  Where in the country do you stay?
