I was only looking from a straight buy and hold perspective. I recall rights being mentioned here before too. I'll give a look to see if they suit me thanks but it's like I mentioned to another poster on another thread. I can't buy any more gold stocks. I've got a pile of money tied up in trusts and other dividend paying vehicles and the damn things just keep sending me money. What am I to do ? --------- A further key aspect to the rights and warrants FOR THE trusts of trusts is this. Usually the rights are offered on one right given for each trust unit held. Typically four of these rights allow the unitholder to get an additional unit. So not only are they offered with a nice gain on the conversion but one now has 25% more units earning one even more monthly income. Your take on the situation of trusts of trusts (SDT.UN) was that "they were too costly". As I said cost is relative to how they do and what they deliver for those who know how best to play them. On a simple math basis above . The benefits of owning a trust of trust like SDT or EIT ,which regularly offer rights, far outweigh the costs. Again That is fact supported by the evidence. And the trusts of trusts like SDT and EIT have used them (rights/warrants) each and every year like clockwork. With the same great results for unitholders. And that is documented. I guess it comes down to if one wants to believe the evidence or a blanket statement (trusts of trusts have an extra level of management that one need not pay for) made by someone who does not look to the entire facts. To see what is really happening. -------------------
