If you don't want to give your money to fund managers to invest you can give it to them to support good causes.
Movember isn't just the ING thing, others are in the game too.
AMP Capital Investors are also featuring in the grow-off, so it's like game on. Which of these managers can out do the other?
In the AMP team is: Andrew Johnson, Anthony Beverley, Anthony Edmonds, Anton Jones, Bradd Topp, Brent Buchanan, Chris Vogtherr, Connor Collier, Dan Russick, David Blyth, Grant Hassell, Hamish McCulloch, Jarrod Thompson, Jonathan Falloon, JP Schmidt, Lawrence Nair, Lawrence Young, Leo Krippner, Marcus Jacobson, Michael Sweetman, Nigel Croke, Paul Broughton, Paul Phillips, Shaun Reed, Stan Wilson, Stephen Costley, Stephen Ladanyi, Steve Corbett, Warren Potter and Warrick Jackson.
But that's not all, the name of their PR-chick, Sue Ryan, also features in the list supplied! Now before you jump to conclusions it's worth having a look at this article which shows how women can take part in Movember.
Sticking with corporate goodwill and something which is close to my butt at the moment, is St Laurence's sponsorship of the Onslow Tar Babies cycle team.
I'm interested as this year, after years of threatening, I plan to compete in the 160km round Taupo bike ride (paid my entry anyway). Form in my two most recent outings, last weekend's 84km Bike the Lake (round Lake Rotorua twice) and the Hamilton- Auckland 100km flyer have been average. (I did get a flatty 10ks into last weekend's race which didn't help). Must be saving the big performance!
Anyway back to St Laurence - they are supporting the Tarbabies who are fundraising for round the Taupo Cycle Challenge for the Child Cancer Foundation check out this site http://www.onslowtarbabies.org.nz/otbwell.html
