Let me put it this way...for purpose of simplicity.

Someone has given me 500,000/= for safe keeping for a period of two weeks and maximum one month. I am wondering what can I do with this money to earn some return before the owner asks for it.

Cytonn will give you 5k after one month.
Alternatively, travel to Luanda in western Kenya, buy bhang worth 200K, spend 100K on transport, 200K on bribes sell it in Nairobi for 600K.If you manage 4 trips in a month, you will have a cool 400K in profit

Ask for 10% commission for the safekeeping job since obviously that is dirty money

@Swenani - thanks I will contact them though I was hoping it could be higher - or I become a shylock?

@Mike Ock - It's clean money for an upcoming project for an old retiree. So before works starts I'm having ideas.

Two weeks ago, had you bought 120,000 shares of CIC insurance at 4.00 ksh, you would have at least 50,00O ksh in you pocket right now.

Do not try this right now, hindsight kills speculators.

My advice is to let this one go and prepare for the next opportunity by educating yourself and next time you won't even think twice on what to do with short term money, or long term for that matter.

Which of course defeats the purpose of trading with other people's money. You're right. I fold.

Go to OLX and spend a whole day obsessively looking for somebody that's desperately selling a car. Corner that person with a low ball offer since they are desperate. Carry like 100k in a bag when you meet him and show it to him and tell him that the deal can be sealed within minutes if he takes your offer. Confuse him. Cash is king so you would have them by the balls. There are a lot of people who are in a fix and will take a big hit if it means getting the cash that they so desperately need. Take the car to your local mechanic, have him fix all the minor details within a day and then sell the car for a huge profit. Sometimes for even as much as 100k profit. Cars being sold for under 500k have a huge market in Kenya, and if your mechanic does a stellar job, that car will be off the market like hot cake so you won't have to worry about not having your shosh's money after a month.

More realistic to ask for 2% handling fee = sh1,000

Yeah, stocks can be a gamble. That I avoided.
