>In face-to-face talks at the White House this week, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull will propose using a chunk of Australia's $2.53 trillion superannuation pool to help unlock funding for Trump's infrastructure push.

The fuck? Why? How could it benefit them to drop money on us?
Benjamin Perry
makes sense to me, Ozzies don't want to get on the receiving end of a Chinese hostile colonization
Jackson Adams
I wonder what rate (((Turnbull))) is expecting in return?
Asher Ortiz

Ian Smith
post yfw australia provides the funding needed for infrastructure deal that results in 4%+ economic growth for america giving trump presidency in 2020 and a third term in 2024
Xavier Foster
Can someone tell me how Australians will profit from this for their super?
We would be loaning them at a set interest rate?
Would we get a return from the fucking toll charges at the border wall gates?
Adrian Cruz
That traitorous kike. Why not use OUR money to build a functional internet here? Fuck Turdball and all the stupid cunts who voted for him. Who the fuck lends retirement savings to another country $20 trillion in debt?
Brandon Foster
could be either. from the article it seems that we would finance highways and other privatised infrastructure and then receive part of the toll payments. pretty good deal for us.
Eli Campbell
The what now?
Colton Price
I fail to see how this benefits Australia, but I’m a brainlet and I’m pretty sure money in such high amounts are accounting tricks.
Isaiah Martin
(((Interests))) It's obviously not a gift my burger friend.
Caleb Perry

Noah Lewis
A percentage of your income is sequestered for compulsory retirement savings. Basically a way to artificially raise the stock market.
Justin Mitchell
I don't know what this means but what I do know is that Australia is America's greatest ally. What a bunch of lovable cunts you guys are
Joshua Cook
The largest operator of private roads is Australian. It already owns some highways in the US. www.transurban.com
We have a large pool of savings from our pension system, which we can diversify a bit into infrastructure.
Evan Howard
Bet you most of the money ends up in Israel.
Ethan Cooper
WHAT THE FUCK AUSTRALIA??? >FRIENDSHIP ENDED WITH EVRY OTHER COUNTRY NOW AUSTRALIA IS MY BEST FRIEND
Joshua Bailey
Can you explain this in english
Grayson Bell
That can be said for most transactions
Owen Young
Nothing wrong with helping out our 2nd greatest ally
Jordan Powell
We’ll give you internet that isn’t dog shit. Don’t ask how.
Joshua Gray
THE WALL JUST GOT TEN FEET HOIGHER YA DRONGO
Isaac Fisher
I've never met an Australian I didn't like
Camden Brown
pan pacific anglo empire when?
Dominic Green
We give burgers some of our shekels. You build roads and shit. Then you give us back our shekels and some more, so we're even richer.
Ethan Smith
Also the absolute state of aussie leftists once they realize that we will be helping fund the wall
Xavier Brooks
Good luck, I'm sure you could give the government a fool proof plan and they'd fuck it up in ways you can't even imagine
Nathaniel Lopez
Thank for the quick rundown Aussies.
Gabriel Flores
If we can have a public vote on gay marriage we should vote on this. It is the people's money and i vote for the US to fix its own problems.
Jack Williams
Not even spending it on Australia, let alone leaving it untouched. Fuck Turnbull. Can't wait to vote Labor at the next election.
Jaxson Martin
We're lending it, not giving it.
Liam King
...
Grayson Foster
They'd use the money to import more niggers.
Oliver Baker
Most of the Sudos came under Howard.
Benjamin Peterson
b-but dont we get moneze from them in form of military support and strategic foward bases ?
whats going on here ? now that i think of it some sort of long term investment. nice one America ill bet you civil war and chimp out and civil war in no time now you got some of fathers retirement dollarydoos
David Price
>what the fuck even is this timeline fampai
Bentley Ward
Use your brain you drongos. We have a fund for our future. It's literally called the Future Fund: futurefund.gov.au
Right now, it is invested; i.e. we are lending the money in that fund, so we get more money for the future. Nothing wrong with lending some of that to Americans.
Henry Morris
Iraq vet here, I served with some meanest motherfucker happened to be Australians and They saved my life when i was being trapped by encircled my platoon. I am forever in debt with aussies. When the shit hits the fan. I will join you.
James Sullivan
australia has a surprisingly high amount of money to kick around don't they?
Colton Gutierrez

We got filthy rich by selling iron ore and coal to China.
Adam Murphy
This has to be a shitpost. I can see through the banter, years of dealing with you cunts has taught me everything is behind 3 layers of satire and bullshit
Gabriel Ramirez
We will see where all this leads in due time,until then. >pic related
Jose Rivera
The Aussies got money to throw around because they keep selling key real estate to the Chinese
Just google "australia port chinese" and a ton of articles pop up
Andrew Powell
That's my reaction as well.
Joseph Garcia
Easy to be generous when it isn't your money. Here's an idea: we lend the seppos the money and every Aussie adult gets an AR15. I'd vote for that.
Nicholas Lee
Can we and our Aussie friends finally put aside our differences, and become brothers-in-arms against the West's true greatest foe, Germany?
Andrew Johnson
aussies are a colony of criminals. they are behind everthing. 9/11... veggie mite
Dylan Scott
And with all the junk and meth you brought, its gone right back to china bruce.
Josiah Reyes
Stop pissing away all your money fighting for jews and maybe you won't be broke.
William Wood
Mate you control your own super. You put the funds wherever you want to. If you put everything in BHP shares, the government is not going to sell them to lend the money to America.
What they'll do is lend government funds (like the Future Fund) or more likely create incentives and structures to invest in infrastructure.
Investing in infrastructure is a good idea because it's an intermediate asset between stocks and bonds.
Jonathan Cook
Wifi
Caleb Powell
>Australia's $2.53 trillion superannuation pool I looked into it. It's a retirement fund like Social Security. Instead of lending the money back to the government as bonds, Australia invests it to get actual returns and it's apparently been managed really well in the last 15 years or so.
Caleb Scott
>The road behind where I live is so destroyed you can see red bricks that were placed in the late 1800s
>Australia will pay for it
Huh.
Brayden Garcia
Wifi is a Kiwi invention.
Hunter Rivera
Then we can invest in infrastructure here. What you say about super is bullshit. Ive looked into self managed super and it is shit.
Benjamin Ross
We're trying, blame the boomers on that. Nazism has rapidly expanded in recent years. Maybe we'll make up it and more in the future.
Jordan Ramirez
Are you confusing Wifi and sheep shagging again?
Asher Bell

Colton Taylor
GREATEST ALLY
Thomas Ortiz
fuck off you seppo cunt stop taking our centrelink money
this
THIS.
Benjamin Barnes
I'm not talking about self managed super. Even with regular super funds from the likes of AMP, etc. you decide where you want your money to go. ING Direct has an option where you can actually pick the individual securities if you want.
Charles Wilson
Na it was aussies from w.a. working for alcatel lucent from memory. Masons no doubt.
If wifi was kiwi itd be written on our flag because we have low self esteem
Jayden Perez
>we
Blake Price
time to export your citizens to our prison colony
Noah Evans
Come to Melbourne, I can't find some leftie scum to change your mind.
Camden Bennett
Turncuck did something? Consider me surprised.
Easton Mitchell
It was radio astronomists from Sydney who invented Wifi.
Jonathan Foster
Anything that pisses off china has made my night. I believe all across the west, the lazy and rich elites, have finally woken to the yellow peril and are pissed off.
Ryder Gray
According to this user the superannuation pool is how you country handles pensions/social security-- it's a big investment portfolio basically
Benjamin Fisher
What i want is to put mine in ptecious metal and take delivery and store it in my safe. Im not allowed to. Fuck this shit country's government telling me what i can do with my own retirement money.
John Flores
WIfi is as Kiwi as Pavlova mate.
Ayden Bailey
BEST CUNTS
Elijah Ross
Turns out Aussies are our closer anglo bros rather than Canucks. I, John Hamburger, hereby declare Australia the greatest cuntry on earth.
Ryder Scott
Closest thing would be buying PMG on ASX using ING LivingSuper. You'd be able to take delivery when you retire.
Levi Foster
it's a scam
Boomer scam
who the fuck cares about them fix your own country's infrastructure first
Justin Miller
feelsgood
Ryder Smith
A fucking paper derivative. If you dont hold it some traitorous cunt PM will lend it to a soon to be 3rd world country.
Blake Torres
>sell commodities to china >put some of that money into pension funds >pension funds finance american infrastructure and growth mfw we've just redirected chinese funds to strengthen america. turnbull playing some 7d chess here. chinese not going to be happy
Chase Bennett
Hmm actually I checked and you can't do that.
Brayden Stewart
If you go by this logic, the title to your land and house is also a paper contract.
Andrew Martin
We're building the wall and Australia will pay for it!
(Wtf thanks best criminals)
Levi Mitchell
you nigger we dont have 2 trillion of anything. maybe you should have bought our oil instead.
Isaac Nelson
We are. With your money
Mason Lewis
I'd prefer this over it being spent on Abbos, Africans and Mudslimes.
Cooper Hughes
die cunt and take Stinkbull with you
Carson Morales
>2.5 trillion in exchange for white AUS being given dual citizenship.
I'll allow it.
Joshua Gray
>Trump gets US congress to give Australia money in some partnership agreement blah blah congress loves to give other countries money anyway >Aussies turn around and build wall for America with the money
Who wants to be our greatest ally?
Christian Walker
Also reminder than 2.5 trillion was teported missing on september 10th 2001, the day before a cruise missle destroyed the pentagons accounting wing, and building 7 went down full of records.
Sudanese refugees are more credible than the US gov. At least when they say "what money" you realise theyre genuinely retarded as opposed to traitors to the crown.
Jordan Allen
WAIT so my hard earned retirement money is being sent to help build shit in America?
unironically what the fuck
Luke Perez
The money is currently invested in australia. What happens when a load is pulled out and sent to the US? Crash for every cunt who didn't invest in building bridges for niggers to throw rocks at cars from.
Ryan Butler
Yes, and they're smug as fuck about it
fucking cunts
Jacob Cox
sounds like they are worried about the rising chink threat and want the USA to back them up when chinks start building islands off the coast of australia
Eli Ward
If they're in any way surprised by this they clearly don't know what we do in PNG :3
Kevin Cox
Come retire here bro, we need more uppity white people.
Jason Jackson
Australians have such an inferiority complex towards New Zealand. Anything noteworthy to come out of Australia is actually Kiwi.
Gabriel Wilson
Do you even know where your retirement money is invested? Bloody typical. "Hurr durr they're taking my money!!!" Where is your super invested in right now?
Oliver Carter
you CAN do that you just need to do a SMSF, there are starter packs and some of the banks will do all the paperwork for you for a fee, like they offer an SMSF account and all you do is pay them money and sign what they tell you to sign
literally book an appointment with westpac or commbank or someone and get set up
thing is, the fees will cost money to the point that it wont be economical versus a normal super account, but if you REALLY want it you can just fucking do it
note: there are legal requirements for what constitutes a vault, you will probably also need insurance, and the premiums will be affected by the type of door (strong door or proper vault door) and cameras and things like that, and how much gold you have.
There are companies that sell second hand vault doors ripped out of old bank vaults, and new vault doors but you have to request a quote on a new one because they vary the price with the spot price of steel because they use like 2 tonnes of it, and the installation will cost a lot also over a certain amount of gold you will have to have special metal things embedded in the concrete walls I forget what they are called but basically the wall is like a metal loop cage that they then poor the concrete over.
You can also buy modular vaults where the vault door is accompanied by wall sections that all get bolted together.
If you dont have a proper standards-compliant vault then good luck getting the gold insured. And holding the gold without insurance might not be allowed I don't know what kind of regulation or approval you need to run a SMSF like that.
