Mistakes or failures will happen. A firm that has NO mistakes/failures might be cooking the books. The now mighty Apple had some duds eg Apple Newton Microsoft, Sony and Nissan have had their share of problems. If SafCom can learn from their "mistakes/failures" then they will come back strong.

I was projecting a 50 cts DVD Other stories to be given to beginners How do they pay interim dividend when they are still paying full dividend? I wasn't expecting one. Chill for full year dividend at between 1.20-1.30 Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation Wealth=Income + Investments - Lifestyle

Inadequate training for the merchants. Masoko - The failure started with the name. "Masoko" sounds like monkeys. Life is short. Live passionately.

Oh OK. And KQ trying New York as a potential new income earner is unacceptable.. Very balanced thinking KQ ABP 4.26

Inadequate training for the merchants. Training is important as well as good quality equipment and connections. This can be fixed. Start with the Carrefours and the like who are open to new ideas. Masoko - The failure started with the name. "Masoko" sounds like monkeys. What are you smoking? I think it has to do with the general reluctance/trust to buy online BUT this will change over time Greedy when others are fearful.

Rank: Chief Joined: 1/3/2007 Posts: 18,346 Location: Nairobi		Saf wants 280k/day as the new M-Pesa limit. This will improve Saf's earnings from fees as both value and transactions increase. There's also a global tie-up with Western Union. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - *to paraphrase Warren Buffett*

This will improve Saf's earnings from fees as both value and transactions increase. There's also a global tie-up with Western Union. They should take it to 200k single transaction (together with 200k as how much your mpesa can hold)then a 500k single day transaction limit. This will be good for business payments. Or have business have their own special mpesa numbers whose transaction limits are in the millions.
