Imagine a child born today. Every year a generous parent, grandparent or guardian puts R46,000 into a tax-free account in the child’s name until the R500,000 lifetime limit is reached. That’s 11 years. Assume a 7% real return (return after inflation), which is roughly what South African shares have delivered since 1900.
