Apart from the noise, can people tell us/me what's wrong with Cytonn?....evidence not hearsay/opinions? You might help a brotther stop yapping and give facts If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

Cytonn does both, maximizes returns and minimizes risks
Whatever one may say about Cytonn, thus far it is an investment that Maximizes return for Maximum risk. how do they maximize risk? In Kenia, one way of minimizing risk is through real estate which seatonne have done.So how are they maximizing risk? If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

May have some truth in it. Dande did not deny that he takes cash from one investor to pay the other. That was in the rich.co.ke interview, mindspeak. They must find it difficult....... those who have taken authority as the truth, rather than truth as the authority. -G. Massey.

The mere fact that they have ended up on all three lists of social media activists is room for concern for any investor in Cytonn.

When you deposit your money at the bank, do you tell the Cashier not to give it to the next customer on the queue? Life is short. Live passionately.

When you deposit your money at the bank, do you tell the Cashier not to give it to the next customer on the queue? Nicely put. However for cytonn its not that straight forward. The ponzi cms has no source of ready cashflow to finance the interests. It must wait to be paid by the building arm of cytonn. The building arm takes loooooong to pay. Meanwhile the cms is accumulating interest payments. The cookie will crumble when new entrants can no longer sustain interest payments. Cytonn will be forced to lower the interest payable. The deal will no longer be that appealing thus less new entrants. The guys invested will sense all is not well and begin to pull out. Thats when the rubber will meet the road. They are on borrowed time. So many factors beyond their control will affect the sale of their buildings. A slow down in sales and the cookie crumbles. They must find it difficult....... those who have taken authority as the truth, rather than truth as the authority. -G. Massey.

Thank you all for your valued/valueless opinion and "expert" advice. However, you are playing guitar music to a rock. (I)We are in Cytonn to stay........ Become a cytonnaire Even Kenya and the US of A borrows to pay off maturing debts. There is nothing new being said here If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

Using one person's money to give previous investors their return is a ponzi. 1. I am not an Advocate for Cytonn but I am appalled by the ignorance displayed by some members here and Cytonn haters elsewhere. My analysis follows: 2. Cytonn needs to build houses, for which they need to mobilize funds. They can do this through Equity or Debt. 3. Cash and land/ property contributed by the founding shareholders and joint venture partners is Equity. They might get a return on their investment or not. Has any Equity holder complained? 4. There are different levels of debt. Bank loans whether secured or unsecured is debt. I bet that all the developments are collaterized. Has any bank complained? Sued? 5. Corporate and Individual lenders, the likes of Taleri and CMS holders are debt holders. They give their cash in return for interest payments. Has any corporate or CMS holder disputed their entitlement? Anyone forced to lend Cytonn money? Anyone sued? 6. Homeowners pay for offplan units, yet to be commenced or completed. Another line of debt. Anyone sued for late completion? 7. Goods and services procured on credit is debt. Contractor does work payable upon certification by the Architect, debt. Employees paid in arrears at the end of month, debt! Has any supplier or employee complained? Sued? 8. In conclusion, a good developer should be able to mobilize Equity and debt, match cashflow needs of the project. Too many people are commenting on issues they know nothing about. Life is short. Live passionately.

Assume I give Cms 1million today. They use it in a particular real estate project. These projects are said to return 25% to cytonn. These projects typically take 2yrs at least from start to finish. This is a very favourable estimate and it assumes build and complete sale. In those 2 yrs, I expect a 40% return on my 1m (18% compounded for 2yrs). The real estate will return 25% whether it takes longer or shorter to do the complete sale. If it takes longer, my compound interest accumulates. How on earth will they pay me off unless they take from Peter to pay me. That is where the ponzi lies. Note, my 1m is unsecured, iin a private wealth management scheme where the law assumes I knew what I was doing when I invested thus no legal recourse when things go south.

Bullshit, Take case for riverun estate, a villa for the last one year was going for around 26.6m offplan sale up to Feb this year, as at March this year, the same unit is going for 29.6M.How is the return CONSTANT????All the units under CRE have gone up.

Let's flush our ignorance as we poop in the morning. If you are indeed doing some serious investing, the average return in Kenya should not be less than 15% once you factor in inflation FYI inflation is around 6-7%, that means that the first 7% of your return is to cover inflation and would probably take you to a negative figure. Moreover, not all the funds from CMS are invested in real estate. Cytonn also invests on NSE, we are all aware that they made a return of close to 80% on KCB counter, is that a ponzi? How many wazuans have made 30%+ on NSE per year. kama hauna pesa ya kuweka Cytonn, meza mate na muwache kelele If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

How many wazuans have made 30%+ on NSE per year. kama hauna pesa ya kuweka Cytonn, meza mate na muwache kelele The definition of a ponzi is that if new entrants stop piling in, the game is over. If new entrants stop getting into CMS, it's game over for that vaunted 18% return. You will never ever pay 18% compounded per annum for 2 to 3 yrs banking on nic/kcb shares. That is a lie. You will never ever pay 18% compounded per year banking on real estate. You will need to complete projects and sell all units in 1 yr, impossible. The longer a project takes to sell, the more other overheads pile up. Bottom line, no real estate build will turnover your cash in under 2yrs to enable you to use the profits to consistently plug the interest gap in the Cms. CMS remains a ponzi until you can satisfy these real concerns. Matusi haitasaidia. Dande mwenyewe alisema the real estate is returning 25% to Cytonn. I doubt if this is 25% compounded per annum. They must find it difficult....... those who have taken authority as the truth, rather than truth as the authority. -G. Massey.

If you are indeed doing some serious investing, the average return in Kenya should not be less than 15% once you factor in inflation FYI inflation is around 6-7%, that means that the first 7% of your return is to cover inflation and would probably take you to a negative figure. Moreover, not all the funds from CMS are invested in real estate. Cytonn also invests on NSE, we are all aware that they made a return of close to 80% on KCB counter, is that a ponzi? How many wazuans have made 30%+ on NSE per year. kama hauna pesa ya kuweka Cytonn, meza mate na muwache kelele The definition of a ponzi is that if new entrants stop piling in, the game is over. If new entrants stop getting into CMS, it's game over for that vaunted 18% return. You will never ever pay 18% compounded per annum for 2 to 3 yrs banking on nic/kcb shares. That is a lie. You will never ever pay 18% compounded per year banking on real estate. You will need to complete projects and sell all units in 1 yr, impossible. The longer a project takes to sell, the more other overheads pile up. Bottom line, no real estate build will turnover your cash in under 2yrs to enable you to use the profits to consistently plug the interest gap in the Cms. CMS remains a ponzi until you can satisfy these real concerns. Matusi haitasaidia. Dande mwenyewe alisema the real estate is returning 25% to Cytonn. I doubt if this is 25% compounded per annum. 1. @tom-boy on the face of it, your arguments are very logical and compelling. Going by your very well reasoned arguments Cytonn should have failed in their housing developments, defaulted on the CMS. Yet they haven't. 2. For the reason that they are still in business, I say your arguments are bumble bee / kangaroo type of arguments. - According to studies by engineers, the laws of aerodynamics prove that the bumblebee can't fly, as it does not have the required capacity (in terms of wing area or flapping speed). - An 80 kg Kangaroo can't exist because jumping up and down repeatedly will consume more energy than it can possibly get from eating vegetation. These arguments though well rooted in pseudo science do not stop a bumble bee from flying or a kangaroo from jumping up and down. 3. Again I don't hold brief for Cytonn. However if you simply compare the 'return' on real estate versus 'return' on CMS forgetting all other aspects of real estate development then I have to say that you are feeding us with pseudo finance. Life is short. Live passionately.
