Jubilee Holdings (10yr Rtn: +743.6%) 3. Centum (10yr Rtn: +676.3%) 4. Diamond Trust Bank (10yr Rtn: +663.9%) 5. Kakuzi (10yr Rtn: +560.4%) Then there's Equity Bank's 314.5%, KCB's 301.1% Nimeona ARM ilikuwa na 425.6%. Good times. Horror story now. But I digress. Find a good stock that delivers value for shareholders, and will meet customer needs- and has room for growth. Buy as much of it as you can. Don't be too greedy. Get out at a good time- or when things get fishy. Fair enough. But remember hindsight is twenty twenty. I too can give you a simple ROI calculation to do. In 2008 someone bought a 1/8th plot in syokimau for 100k. What is their 10 year ROI today?  Zero return coz they would not have gotten any at that price. I bought one at Katani kwa Chief for 200,000 at this time. Syokimau was 500,000 then and up to 1.2 m for the upper sections.

You can check wazua archive for more. Cheers My broda, do you know the difference between a 1/2 acre, a 1/4 acre and an 1/8th of an acre? If yes, kindly refer to your linked post, read carefully and revert. 1/8 acre Syokimau, 100k title deed secured 2008, worth ngapi leo? Konza 1 acre 2008 50k.. .yes 50k! if the deals passed you by, shauri yako usianze kulalamika that such prices were impossible back then!

HAFR was founded in 2008 with capital of 405M. 2. Over the last 10 years that capital has increased by 10 times to 4.5B held as stocks of plots, at cost. 3. If you were to buy the whole company today, it would go for 303m, which is less than 10% of the value of the plots the company has. 4. This is somewhat simplified, ignoring complex accounting jargons, presumptions, assumptions, estimations etc. 5. The investment alternatives are: a) Buy a fairly priced plot in the dust bowl today and wait for 10-20% per annum capital appreciation for the next 10 years; or b) Buy a 90% discounted company today whose underlying asset is also appreciating at 10-20% per annum. I trust you now see the logic @AA and myself are applying. Life is short. Live passionately.

Your analysis is based on flawed information....

Sparkly, you are a good dreamer What is the value of ten percent of nothing? Did you forget that HAFR is a going concern and that share you are holding isn't a title deed to its assets? Did you account for book cooking? Look at its 2017 annual report and report back to us about what happened to the value of its tangible assets. Does that seem normal to you in a booming environment? And that is just the tip of the iceberg! My fren sell this thing before you end up like Double A, having to seek women tenders in the village in retirement watching your life sweat burn away fast!

Do you know that 5 years ago @thedeal issued a buy recommendation at 15bob? Anyway I rest my case for now and wait for Mr Market to speak. Life is short. Live passionately.

Poor you, 30% reserved so even i dont take it some crooked person will still take it and huku hakuna competition. You are actually called to tender. Anyway as you chase funds stealing from you, a stage i passed 20 or so years back, wish you the best. I enjoy my relaxed environment and i use my land for production and not speculation and i employ a good number of Kenyans directly - 'permanently' and others indirectly along the chain. I wish i know how to upload photos on wazua, wacha tu. Village setup is better than living in wilderness hoping that people will one day come and join you (fresh supplies everyday  ). By the time that happens, you will be near the grave than from when you were born. Life life now. In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen
