In a population where investing is something that is not taught and the majority of the population seem to dismiss it with absolute contempt and shoddy attitudes, it becomes a quagmire of epic proportions when the country finds itself in an economic downturn slide, it becomes even worse when the global economy is trapped in the same downward spiral. In South Africa, where saving and investing is seemingly reserved for very few and selected individuals, it is vital that we have a frank conversation about learning how to invest and the types of vehicles that are available to everyday people that are not investment inclined or savvy, it is important that we engage in conversations that will atleast illustrate the importance of saving and investing. Research conducted for the youth or young South Africans aged between 25 and 35 reveals very interesting dynamics which are not surprising in their totality when considering the country’s attitude when it comes to distinguishing value dimi...

As an individual with an insatiable appetite for business and people I sometimes wonder how did we get so cynical and sceptical about everything that we do not understand or agree with? When did we become such a cynical and sceptical population? Imagine a world where everything that was foreign to you or the next person was met with scepticism and cynicism simply because of the lack of knowledge and appreciation for the unknown and most times misunderstood!

The questions I pose above do not necessarily pertain to any one particular discourse, they are not related in any way to my passion (business and people), they could could be about your job, your abilities, your hair even or the way you choose to do things, those questions are meant to start a dialogue that should not be restricted because it is these restrictions that prompted those very same questions! I posed those questions because as people ...

The one thing that seems to be missed by most people while they are in a state of providing alibis for all thei...
