I know Mumias will go sub 7/- and that would be a good time to buy.


There is no good time to buy mumias... The profits will be lower for very long...

Am successful business owner based in Uganda.
Since 2008,am doing mobile phone refurbishing. This is where I buy scrap phones from the UK and USA and work on them to virtually turn them unto ‘’new’’ working handsets.
A handset purchased at $8 usually sales at $37 and above after refurbishing it.
I currently have a proven sales record of over 1000 handsets per week.
With funding, the company is targeting a turnover of more than $1.6m in the first 12months. This project can surely or easily turn $100,000 into $1m just in 16monhts of investment.
any amount well above $25000 is worth investing
Call me on +256772666655or text me your details. for more info about this project.

What kind of English is taught in Nigeria? You guys should invest in some English lessons if your con job is to be a success. And your massacred English is very similar! Is there some sort of Con Job High School you all go to? Or do you all hail from the same village?
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

@ azizakhadija . i mean even after havin all the spotlight,for being a quack u still dnt quite. Where actually are your offices if you have any ??? @ Nairobi City Centre u say . whats that ??? u expect your clients to search the whole of Nairobi City Centre !!!! can u put a proper location.Not that i am interested in your services but just for the sake of the wannabes who might fall into your trap.

Give this Aziza Khadija guy a break. He/She is just an agent for an investment bank. He is not even claiming to give certain returns. I do not think its wrong for one to solicit business in this forum especially when there is clearly a need. You don't expect him/her to vomit all his co. deatails here for all to see now do you? Better he sends such info on email. Be nice fellows.Shame on you

I'd consider converting that money into Euros or Swiss Francs and keep it in the bank account. Between January to Now the NSE index has gone down by more than 20% and the foreign currencies i.e. Euros have gone up by 20%. As we go towards 2012 and the ICC process, I think the shilling is likely to weaken and the stock market to either go down or stagnate. Smart money is keeping cash for now.

Shs 2 million guy:Just be greedy when others are fearful and be fearful when others are greedy !!! But do your homework well.So many people here thrive on fear,like the guy telling you to convert your cash into dollars,euros etc.Once you have your ability to stomach the risk,go for it.Those fearful guys will just stay there,dreaming to one day have sh 2m....which they only see in end-year financial results of companies......

And someone mentions my favourite paper hedge - swissie aka swiss franc aka CHF. I'm looking at this thing CHFKES above 120/- looking to head to 140 before Dec 2011. I never the thot swissie would rally like mad vs KES having started hedging at 87/-. I was looking for 10 -15% gains based on the USDKES moves, but where the exchange rate is now and the loony toons at CBK and Treasury assure the the rate will be at highs for a while...

smile That's the nature of money... one's gains is another's loss... the game of musical chairs continues... The moment the USDKES broke down the 90/- barrier, that was as good a hint that it's all systems go... That 90/$ rate was my cue to selloff all NSE holdings and troop to the money market - now I'm hiding behind T-Bills until further notice...

Thanks guys for your advice. Since I am a newbie in this, I have further questions: Should I choose to invest Ksh1.5m or the entire Ksh2m in the money market, how much interest should I expect within a year? And whats the best money market to invest in? Also, will I have the option of getting back my money (and any interest earned) say after nine months or are money market investments fixed and non-negotiable?


This guy is the con!

It may be better to buy a plot of land which in two years may be worth 4 million that any other asset or anything else in the money market. Real estate is always going up far above the inflation rate but i havent seen that when it comes to shares especially for the last 3 years (2008 - 2011).

I kept my shares when i friend of mine bought land in Membley in 2008 a quarter at 1.5 million. Now the same quarter is 3.5 million and my shares money has not given me a cent.

Shares require Euphoria followed by a huge Dysphoria for investors to make money ...

But for the last 3 years Kenyans and foreigners have ignored the market. NSE has lost loads of money for majority of investors ... especially those not schooled enough to follow closely, listen hard and sell out when there is danger ...

Good luck however!
Don't gamble; take all your savings and buy some good stock and hold it till it goes up, then sell it. If it don't go up, don't buy it...

Euphoria: You said it all.90% of investors who buy through euphoria hardly make any money.They just loose their hard earned cash to 10% sophisticated investors who bought earlier when there was no euphoria.Buffett says you can't buy what's popular and do well.You must buy early enough.

I have saved Kshs 2 million and would like to invest it in a lucrative business that will give me a good return on investment in the short-term (3 - 6 months) as I save up for long-term investments such as property. I need a business that requires little day-to-day attention or in which I can employ only one assistant to do the day-to-day stuff because I have a very busy job and won’t be able to run and manage every little thing in the business. Any ideas?



2 million is not alot of money, my advise is, buy something you're comfortable with, something you'll sleep happy. If you're to invest, invest 33% of you 2 million every year for 3 yrs, that way you build confidence on what you're doing, after the first year, you should be able to see some returns!

I hope you bought land. There's no better security at this time.

BBI will solve it :)
