No, they tied up the security guards but never hurt anyone. Strangely they got hold of the security company management uniforms, so the guards opened the gate for them...

If you all lump in together, you inevitably find that at some stage one member cannot make a deposit or one that runs into financial difficulties and needs to withdraw from the scheme.
The tax free savings is an option to start with until your quota is full. I think it is R500k max.

Is the 500k not braked up into max 30k a year till you hit 500k?

Yes, only R30k per year, so it would take you 17 years to get to R500k: http://investorchallenge.co.za/lets-all-be-guilty-of-tax-avoidance/

Have you maxed out your RA yet though? It seems to be the best option if you're still working. erwintwr has a great calculator showing the benefit: http://shareforum.co.za/shares/tfsa-vs-ra-vs-satrix-calculator/

I don't mind when the JSE drops, but I do mind when it drops while the rest of the world doesn't...

Personally, would not invest together - to many problems. Rather all open share accounts then meet up once a month to share ideas and have a cold one. More fun and less friction.

I agree with Mr Div. In the past the minimum fees on most share accounts may have been a good reason to invest together, with ABSA for instance you had to invest R30k at a time to make it worthwhile. Now companies like easy equities and computershare mean there isn't that minimum anymore, so there isn't a financial reason to hold a shared investment account.

The only benefit would be the "forced" installments, but you can still come up with a version of that in your group.
