I advice you to take the Kikuyu wife option, make her feel special and she wont think of poisoning you, since Kikuyus are good at handling money..you'll just sit back and watch the interest grow.

@ Deekamata..,lol wrong advice.., she will take the money from u instead..,

as for fixed accounts.., i wudnt advice u..
my mum put 600000 ksh from her business into one.,the money was suposedly to multiple and the deal was too good to be tru.., i bet my mum was anxious to handle millions afta some years..,
wacha the company collapsd.., my mum went bananaz.., turns out the management was embezling the funds and most accounts wa empty!! they didnt have any built interests let alone the money u deposited.., its bin 2 years and so far my mum has been paid only 300000 ksh so be careful with these deals..,they kud be crapy!!

I second your idea.
If you're not keen on building at the moment, just accumulate as much land as you can. Currently, their values are rising at a pace that far surpasses yearly returns from any other form of investment. It's also 100% risk free, unlike stocks.
However, due to political instability in some 'hotspots,' don't venture too far out from Nai. Central is ok, it's generally peaceful; Eastern province don't go past kitengela and R.Valley fikisha Karen/Ongata Rongai. They are not my ideas btw; I overheard tidbits from a wise friend.

I've just noticed there's no emoticon for rolling eyes.( ) I must say I question your sincerity.

@ Waithera that was probably a pyramid scheme where one is promised something for nothing ... doesn't work that way!

The shimo thing has potential ... Oh and I know a Kyuk gal ...

.

I agree with you on land being a good investment. The only caution is that since people are aware of this, con artists wamejaa everywhere ready to fleece people by selling to them non existing land.

Personally, I think you should be affiliated with a licensed representative who is affliated with a very good broker/dealer....depending on where u are. Check out their requirements and even call the broker dealer they are affiliated with to confirm coz u never know. Also make sure the sure the broker dealer is SIPC certified, i.e, if they go bankrupt or anything, they are entitled to giving u ur money back(not sure how much it is now). If you are young, invest in Fixed or Equity Index Annuities, these are long term. CD's and MF are also a good investment. Buy shares and sell ur shares when the market goes up or down. I work for the brokerage industry and in trading and I see lots of people call in with huge amounts of cash and end up getting more in the end..it is up to u...u need to do ur research though coz u dont want to be taken for a ride with ur hard earned savings...good luck
