The Safcom share. Dug in quite deep, very naive of me. Now every time I think of that event I want to reach for a stiff drink.

I have really burnt myself with ICDC aka Centum. I think I went in sentimentally since Centum was how I first got into stocks when it floated with an IPO. I remember when their shares went to as high as 800 and then they split 1:10 and I became 'very rich'. So when the shares fell to 25/= I went in like a rhino (head down and no thought!) and amassed quite a chunk. I was thinking they would go up again to 80/= which was what they were worth when they were split. Needless to say they're now worth less than 1/2 of what I paid for them. However I'm still holding out for a great day when they'll wake up though for now Mworia seems to be either groping in the dark or he wants to do an Uchumi with DJ CK.

This one most of us have made!!! And what's worse, the community makes us feel like it is a responsibility! Just because you have worked hard and you have something small, you have to pay school fees for the kid of your uncle's cousin's brother in law's sister who's father happens to be a D.D.O. [Those who don't know the meaning can ask @guka]. And the "best" part is that the kid is not interested in education and has his dad as the role model! Fellow never passes and never acknowledges your effort. I have learnt from other people's mistakes and some of my own. Before I pay school fees for anyone, I must do thorough vetting! sio kulipia kila mtu juu ni uncle ya cousin ya brother in law wa bla bla bla!

But you are also not alone.
I have never ever checked on them. I just hope my account still exists.

For that amount you can have all the airports in most kenyan brothels!

Really sad indeed.

My worst money mistake was selling Uchumi at 7 bob after buying it at 7.50...when I look at its price today,I release some carbon dioxide.

Spending 15k on pint and then going home on a Matatu cos i was broke!!! Argrhhhhh never again

LOL

Loaning relas! nkt!
