answering ElizMum : Easy peasy decision IMO.....ref Could you buy a mine with it or should I just stick it into superannuation?

putting your $'s into Superannuation funds are like playing the lottery......however, BUYING a SuperFund and joining the 400 other fund Managers....Hmmmm! there's a thought
