@Ebenyo u have hit the nail by the head and thank you.Your analysis is spot on, i dont think i would breakdown this way as yet, hope to get to this level of analysis soon. Am no expert in this field and wazuans have moulded me in many aspects and for that am deeply greatful

@Enyands, i have already, thanxs to wazuans i boarded SIC, i believe sometime in may last year. I read all your posts on the the SIC thread.

i agree with you, but i advise that you leave some responsibilities to 'specialists' i.e. the insurers. it is not advisable to manage all the aspects of your financial planning.
re: insurance policy returns, using football as an analogy, insurance is the defence/keeper, savings are the midfield, stocks/investments are the strikers. so, set your finances up accordingly.

Sounds like phrase straight out of the one week training for Insurance sales people.

But it is true. Certain insurance policies - like health, motor vehicle etc. - can protect you from financial ruin!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

@Markava,welcome my brother.As i said earlier,im also still learning.I will only get better as time goes by.Im only three months old here but i have really learnt a lot.I wish ningejua this site earlier.Its good to learn from each other.
The idea of saccos does not work for me.I want my money to work for me.Not to give someone else my money to invest on my behalf.That way i loose my sense of creativity and freedom.My two other passions beside stocks are Treasury bond and Real estate.

Ebenyo you are right about saccos though on my side I use it for stability purposes.an example is like safaricom inv. sacco.3 yrs ago they gave us a whooping return of 31%.they retain a certain percentage and hand you the rest .Last year was 21%.With that I can comfortably plan for my kids school fees every year hence (stability planning ). With stocks when it goes down no gains and when it goes up then you get much gain .


So with sacco they deal with core or fundamentals of investing.they are rarely affected by the bear nor are they affected by the bull. But as I said it's everybody's prerogative how they invest but what works for me is investment saccos as a cushion against stocks shocks when they head south

Your point is good.The rule of thumb in wealth creation is to diversify.No one single investment is a sure thing.My ultimate goal in roping in returns will be like this:

Investment %return
1.Stocks 4
2.T.bond 13
3.Real estate 18

Total 35
Annual average
returns 12

with inflation rate at 6% my purchasing power will be fine.

So if you will have 1.stocks 2.Sacco and 3.one other investment. you will be fine.
