Love your videos, thankyou for making everything so easy to understand. You've inspired me to get started investing at 44 years old and *hopefully* get my three teenage daughters started too.

Everytime this thumbnail comes up, I keep misreading the line as "Buy us stocks!" and I'm like "Yes please".

QQQM is the same as QQQ and it's even less at 0.15%. So, if you're holding for more than 5 years, it's worth going for QQQM.

But if you invest in US stock and have a good gain and withdrawal back to AUD, it will be an advantage.

Just found your channel today and have learned a lot. Noob question for you....buying ETF's with US exposure on the ASX would have no international tax implications? I've seen enough TV to not mess with the IRS.

Like your videos. I would like to open a Stake account using the link you provide. What do you recommend to open a stake account with US or AUD currency? Which one saves fees more or how much difference (e.g.: to transfer A$10000 to US$)? Many thanks.

Can Aussies option tradie US stocks, which brokers ?

[veragini]

So we never own a US stock under our name as all the brokers in the US are (custodian model). So, how do billionaires in the US buy stocks there? I mean to be 100% safe in case the broker is broken?

[laurensawyer]

So do you only have to fill out the form when you are selling ETFs or shares? Just trying to figure out when the tax implications actually come into play.

Will dividends earned from US stocks be higher because of US-AU conversion?
