All indicators are that it is going to be another mediocre performance by @Mighty VVS portfolio. I predict less than kes. 450,000 return which translates to 4.5%(excluding withholding tax)

@VVS would have been better off if he had invested the 10 milli in a business of choma-ing and hawking mandazi in the dusty bus terminus of Rongai rather than gambling it all in the NSE casino. Otek!

My contribution to this topic is this;

- 9 years ago my dividend cheques were less than 400/= (yes, I had about 20k in the market at that time)

- Through the years my dividend cheques have grown to 6 figures per annum. Hopefully, If I can get them to 7 figures before I decide its time to "ponda mali" properly.

- Stocks are NOT my only income source; heck at this point in time they are just parking for money generated from other sources. Very few get the privilege of "Living on stocks" alone.

- I have been fortunate to get into blue chips at low prices, my portfolio has never been in the red and I enjoy an average dividend yield of 11.5%.

- I have never sold, but I do make additions and reinvest when I judge the times to be right; like in 2016-2018 when they had the rate-cap (we had more than 24 months to weka haba na haba)

- If you do not have huge lump sums of money, the only way to value-invest is by doing over a long period and getting in when moments are right. I especially love long recessions, they give you time to put in little by little.

- If you do have huge chunks of money at your disposal, the best value would be real estate and business in that order, @Mugundaman actually knows what he is saying.

- The ultimate investor is a diversified investor - Stocks for long term cash-flow, Land for value appreciation, Rental and Bond income as safety nets, Business for the ultimate risk-return ratio.

- There is no quick money unless its business. I am grateful for having started early and I am grateful for Wazua esp a guy called cde-monomopata

Haya ujumbe ndiyo hiyo, you peons need to take notes from THE MASTER, the GURU the HEAD HONCHO of NSE investing in Kenya today (after S Mutaga III Esq, former holder of the crown, cut his losses chap chap presumably due to covid19( ) and quietly retired, well humbled and chastened by the whippings of the NSE, to join the rest of us on THE BENCH ).

Baseline as he requested by VVS himself was June 4th. Updates to be delivered monthly. So far all we see is red but time will tell!

NIMESEMA!
