Heath Ledger's death strikes a chord
I don't envy any young actor, especially a good-looking one, who has to make his way in today's world," Maltin said. "But he succeeded pretty well in maintaining a private life, and as a result we don't know that much about him. And that's as it should be. He wanted to be seen for his work." And his work was so widely admired in part for the challenging choices he made, in a career that could have easily just cashed in on his looks and charisma. Rather, he chose difficult films like Monster's Ball, in which he played a prison guard, and of course, Brokeback Mountain. "He captured all the colours of that role, of a repressed man about to implode," said Maltin. "It's such a shock and such a loss. I didn't really know him, but I feel a terrible loss." Some wrote of Ledger's affinity for playing tortured souls, and speculated that perhaps these roles mirrored anguish in Ledger's own soul.

It's your money at the end of the day and you should understand what's going on with it," he said. "Being in the wrong fund can cost you 30-40 per cent over a lifetime - the difference between retiring on $600,000 or $900,000." Super holders need to stop ignoring mail from their super funds, to make sure they're not getting ripped off in fees and charges. An annual statement tells the super holder how much their fund earned and how much was taken out in fees. "If it's more than 1 per cent or 1.5 per cent you are basically getting ripped off," Mr Bresnahan said. A fund holder with $20,000 should not be paying more than $300. With $100,000 it shouldn't be more than $1000. "Fees and returns will dictate what you get in retirement," Mr Bresnahan said.
