Look at this scenario a pal of mine, has left me some money {2m} to pay his lawyer upon perfection of some docs. This might take 1-2months which means I will be holding this money for that duration. I am tempted to through it in the stock exchange for that duration, which is against my investment policy - Invest Long term.
Any ideas from wazuans.

DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Use the money for the purpose intended by your friend. What kind of friend are you anyway?

If still in doubt, ask your friend what you should do with his money in this two months.

I dont believe there is a fixed deposit account for 2 months.

They start from 3 months onwards......

Please good people do not encourage this Sabina person to misuse friends money.

Surely surely!....
Weka hiyo pesa in a fixed depo account and forget about using it.When time comes to use it pay the lawyer then ask your friend what you should do with the interest it will have earned.He might share some of it with you for being a good boy.
Formally employed people often live their employers' dream & forget about their own.

Invest the money with me; I'll give you 20% per week for 8 weeks and then return the 2m on the 9th week.

Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

Be very careful. One mistake and your friendship is gone. Whatever you choose to do make sure your friend knows about it. Make no move without his authority. Be a trustworthy friend.
