Bigmarc reacted to KleinerVogel in Tips for selling gold as a beginner?
Although I understand the post first get paid later when selling to well known forum users, it still leaves bit of a bitter taste in my mouth because it feels like the community is being split into the privileged popular people who can have things sent to them with no risks and then the rest of us who just have to trust some guys on a forum who says don't worry that person is fine. I mean those trust worthy people had to start out like the rest of us didn't they.
But I get it, we live in a world where bad people exist who want to take things that don't belong to them from honest people. But it seems one of the unfortunate side effects of that reality and the counters you guys are making to it, is the haves and have nots on the forum, the privileged "trusted" and the rest being great unwashed untrusted who must take all the risks when selling. That's just my feelings on the matter, just my opinion. There is no right or wrong, or any kind of argument to be had.
When I joined the forums awhile ago, i was tinkering with the idea of perhaps selling on here one day, but after the recent scams from a "trusted" person, I decided to perhaps not bother, which is why I'm not too concerned about building my rep now and just speaking plainly.
I suppose I am more angry at the thieves and dishonest people who ruin good things, rather than being upset with the system here.

If the sale is already agreed and I'm just facilitating then the buyer and seller.
If I take it and sell it myself, then me and the buyer

Bigmarc reacted to Gruff in Gold Monitoring Thread £ GBP only
If they aren't currently being contributed to then you should be able to migrate them away, unless they are final salary pension schemes. Remember even though they are with your company, they aren't your company, they are being provided by a pension investment company, Standard Life, Aviva etc....
Typically you'll have a good annual charge rate as it'll have been negotiated by the company so you need to see if you can get a similar rate elsewhere. But it pays to not have all eggs in one basket. Also with those older pensions you might be limited to the types of investments they are invested in within that pension, so moving can give you more freedom to invest in other assets within the pension. Again we should probably have a Pension thread as this is something that affects a lot of people and a lot of people will have a little bit of knowledge.

I think there is only a couple of years left in that joke before people forget who he is.
