what scares me is how easily you want to take advice and invest your cash.
choose a share that even if your initial capital is halved by a paper loss in the next 1-3yrs you will not sell, because you believe in that company.
if u can't find such a share buy a tbill or a money market fund.
The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

Of the stocks I've bought the one I regret buying is one that I bought because everyone seemed to think it was the best and it looked good outwardly at a glance. Listening to other people's opinions and recommendations is good, but I learnt it's no shortcut for proper due diligence.

Long tern you don't lose. Remember SCOM was once at 2.55. So someone can buy Mumias @2 bob and wait for a bull run!!!
The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.
