When did Wazua go from discussing investment ideas, philosophies, financials, etc to a dick-measuring contest?

Or I could be old school and my generation doesn't discuss "wealth" or "income" in public fora.
I know folks who mention they bought a ka-shamba but not as a boast but to share knowledge. Somewhere along the way you find out it was a 200 acre ka-shamba and not a 1/4 acre plot that Maina Kageni pitches.

I discuss my picks but I feel very uncomfy mentioning numbers unless they are (virtually) meaningless eg I still have some KenGen [odd lot] & less than 200 OCH in cert form.

Once I met Kibuga Kimani. Serendipity. I did not know him from Adam. Humble guy. Quiet. He is passionate about Kakuzi and he has many other shares but he doesn't discuss what he has in terms of value. The group discussion, he was the "star", centered around Kakuzi's profitability and undervaluation.

Anyway, different strokes for different folks.

I believe you have half a point.. The NSE is not the economy but is a significant barometer to the same


Not necessarily so.

Mumias Sugar , Kenya Power , East African Portland Cement Company (EAPCC) and Uchumi Supermarkets failed to meet the October 31 deadline set by the Capital Markets Authority (CMA), meaning investors in the firms will have to wait longer to know whether the management generated any returns during the financial year ended June 2018.

Buffett’s Underrated Investment Attribute
https://www.gurufocus.co...ed-investment-attribute
One of Warren Buffett (Trades, Portfolio)’s most underrated skills is his ability to recognize when a situation is getting outside of his well-defined circle of competence. He not only recognizes when a situation is too hard, but I think he doesn’t waste much time even considering the investment.

"the remarkable ability Buffett has to change his mind when he realizes he is wrong. Buffett seems to have the temperament and personality which allow him to easily overcome the typical biases that haunt most investors. There are many types of biases associated with investments that you currently own, including the so-called “endowment effect,” where you tend to view more favorably the positions you already own. This can cause you to overlook, ignore or de-emphasize problems that are becoming evident with one of your holdings."

Looting. On KPLC, Mr. Looto and Chumo took over where Mo1 and Gichooro left.
