Default someone please help!!! - 06-06-2008, 07:21 AM

when it comes to matters of economic investment, I am basically as clever as a goat.

However, God has blessed me where I am. I grew up in a very poor family and was an orphan by age 5. It never crossed my mind that some day I could even afford to feed myself. To cut a long story short, I've struggled and I have about Kshs. 3 million in a Savings account.

The interest this money earns isn't much. A fellow idiot advices me that I should put the money in a fixed account with an AUTOMATIC ROLLOVER option.

Is there any other way I can invest the money so that the returns are higher? Is it wiser to invest it where I am in Europe or should I invest it in Kenya?

All pieces of advice/links will be highly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Faithfully,
Silly Goat

Me thinks that real estate in Kenya is always a good investment as it always goes up in value over time. 3M can even get you a house in some quarters then you can rent it out and watch your investment grow.

(Lakini hata mi si chop wa maths)
 


Beacause I know!

hahahahahaha aki wewe kweli ni senge kabisa, lol


anyway incase you are serious which I doubt, best option while you learn about investement is CDs

they are called cash deposits, you can do mutual funds but I dont know about the nai stock exchange

in my opinion its to volatile for long term investment


ama just chimba a shimo and throw the money in there till you are ready to spend it

One thing at a time sir, talking about three diff. ways at once makes me dizzy.

I am 100 per cent serious so please talk about the CD thing. I like the sound of CD. CD might be good for me. Give me some CD talk and where to go, who to talk to etc

Help appreciated

Sincerely yours
Goat

or maybe i just need me a kikuyu wife. someone says she could invest the money and get really good returns before she poisons me and takes off with everything?

but methinks if she can make the money grow, and give up the poisoning idea, we could all be happy. no?

Sincerely,
Nice Goat
