Ann: Change of Director's Interest Notice, page-7

Absolutely agree, if a company is superbly managed and shareholders are profiting immensely, than of course directors should do so as well.
And the facts are, (from my perspective who started investing in NST in 2014) that over the last 5 years Northern Star has been roughly  a 12-bagger since they started their "After-Paulsons-acquisitions" . (= Jundee, Plutonic, Kanowa Belle,...)

It can't get much better  than this, 1.200 % in a 5 years timeframe, don't even mention the share price performance from investors who were on board since the start....

Of course, our directors who managed and oversaw this process, have to be rewarded, I would feel ashamed, if they were not !

Negative posts from shareholders of other companies, do not interstate's me in the least. IO understand, why such people are bitter and frustrated, because of their own incompetent/not so competent  manegmnent. 

But in the end the best way to prevent such bad investment decisions is to follow the 20:80 rule, which summarizes as:

20 % of the best people (=managements) make 80 % of the profits, in any sector or field of business.

There is absolutely no doubt for everybody to see, that NSTs management (and staff) is among those Top 20%.

Invest accordingly for your own financial future...
