I suspect the OP has USD, and that the RaboDirect account will be in AUD. Investing in AUD would be a bold investment approach, and certainly not risk free.

- femto 13y agoProbably! Interestingly, if I had $1m to invest and split it with my wife, with Australia's tax cutting in at 19c for each $1 over $18,200 up to $37,000, we would pay $2584. Since we have children, we qualify for a tax break called the family tax benefit [1], which would pay $13,773 per year. Total post-tax return would be $61,189. A yield of 6.12%, risk free! Now where did I put my million dollars? [1] http://www.humanservices.gov.au/customer/enablers/online-estimators http://www.humanservices.gov.au/customer/enablers/online-est...
