@mlefu: I desist from posting my contacts here since after I offered you that job, I got so many cvs mpaka I delegated the duty of recruiting an IT manager to someone else. I will drop you a line.
@jammo: Well said. Some guys used to wonder why I prefered to fly to Coast rather than use the bus and enjoy the road trip! Time vs Money! That k you spend for the bus and take 9 hours is more expensive than 5k spent on a flight and reaching in 45mins! Unfortunately, Kenyans have a propensity for cheap things regardless of the time and effort it takes to get them!
Growing older is mandatory. Growing up is optional.

This is very interesting.....
I envy most of the impressive qualifications of the sk members.
I hope when they allow SMEs to be listed,I will have one of the few that I have on board....
That is besides having a full time job as a Product development Engineer at a (or is it @ the) leading Mobile service provider.

Iam a physician practising in the UK. Forced to relocate 3years ago due to failing systems in our healthcare provision and training. great interest in stocks all over the world. It pays to diversify in different stock markets and look beyond Kenya.

@njunge i think some people just read osts most of the time but rarely contribute,that is why you dont happen to see some names. a case of double registeration can not be ruled out. by the way njunge: what did you say you do/? The real measure of wealth is how much you'd be worth if you lost all your money. African parents don't know how to say sorry.. the closest you will get to a sorry is a 'have you eaten'

@ njung'e
May be the number of views can also confirm that there could be many who do not participate in discussion coz may be (if they are new investors like me) they are out to first learn,before they can contribute. from the discussions,anyone can tell there are so many well read and experienced investors here so..........
personally,Bcom Banking n Finance,Dip in Administration & management - working in administration & corporate services in a regional development bank.
Some deals are like glass. Sometimes it's better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together.

From the posts it is obvious that you guys spend all day on the net. So what time do you do all that tough things you are talking about?
I am in IT,hold an MBA and struggling to get into accounting - would have been CPA II had I not failed Systems Theory and MIS. Yes I failed and am in IT for a living.
Part time,I do stocks - it has bought me a house so far.
