@Taras_Krivosh Be careful of what you invest in with the middle east wars. Markets are volatile. The investing in general is great and DEFINITELY a must start younger. You so lucky to get R1000 for entertainment weekly :)
4 weeks ago I started an investing experiment. I'm 21, still in university, and have no complex strategy.🇿🇦
Instead of spending R1,000 ($60) on a night out, I invested it. Then I did it again the next week. And the week after that.
My strategy has been weekly Dollar Cost Averaging - and I'm up 5.1% in 4 weeks.
Total invested: R4,000 ($238.60)
Current portfolio value: R4,205 ($250.83)
Weeks 1-3 I invested into Bitcoin, Gold, and the VALR 10 bundle - a basket of the top 10 cryptocurrencies. Week 4 I added Nvidia.
To put it in perspective - the average South African instant access savings account gives 3-8% per year. I'm at 5.1% in a month.
Most people my age think investing is for later. I'm proving it isn't.
Week 5 incoming.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump SUES JPMorgan Chase and CEO Jamie Dimon for $5 BILLION because they de-banked him
BOOM! Major FAFO underway! 🔥
The era of de-banking MAGA is OFFICIALLY OVER.
@Discovery_SA Thanks. Called customer care and they assisted on a new card. Hopefully i will receive it in a few days. Still think this should be done proactively by Discovery prior card expiry to issue an updated card.
@Discovery_SA quite pathetic that my card has expired and there's no new card delivery. Almost want to cancel using your banking as this is a prerequisite and doesn't need a customer request.
@CheckersSA Roka instant noodles tasting stale and off. Relating to BB 16/JAN/2026, 25019. First time experience of bad product after months of using the product. Please report
@CheckersSA roku noodles is tasting off and stale despite not being expired. This is the 3rd noodles pack opened from delivery on 8/11 and its off-putting
@MTNza@MTNza Why is it so easy for someone to sim swap my numbers and hijack my whatsapp and you guys can't do anything about it? Why is it only MTN and not other networks??
