That's what you get for listening to your elders.

(Read Vituvingisana).
Which other bus likely to be the next one to leave the station?
Thank you for the compliment.
Criteria
1) Do you TRUST the management?
2) Are the fundamentals looking good? [Not just results for the past 12 months but also try to look ahead]
3) Price is important [Don't overpay for a great firm BUT be prepared to pay a fair price]
I am NOT going to provide any "buses leaving the station" as much as buses on a journey. Please check what @Kausha @Aguy have to say. They have consistently been my kindred spirits not just in KK but others too.
I have the following [and on multiple occasions given reasons]:
Unga
KenRe
I&M
TPSEA
Williamson/Kapchorua
Car & General
Equity
What I am NOT buying - some are just awful while others are not my cup of tea even if they are decent firms:
KQ, KCB, NBK, Britam, Sasini, Eveready, ADSS, Express, Olympia, Kurwitu, NBV, Mumias, Orchards... All GoK firms (except KenRe)
Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett
