No no P. CML is dated. MTA is the new one. And PNC. Where have you been?

Off topic / Stealing my airtime.
« on: January 21, 2014, 06:35:18 pm »
I have an old Symbian Nokia C6 that I use for voice and WhatsApp only on prepaid. Never used it for internet as I have a Tablet and laptop for that. It is a stupid old phone with a small screen and I think it is still the old Edge thing.
Yesterday the airtime balance was zero strangely as I don't recall getting a warning ever. So I bought a R12 voucher and immediately received an sms stating that R12 was installed. Then bought R55 via cellphone banking and got the conformation.
Checked balance and it showed R55. Where did the R12 go in 5 minutes?
Today it shows a balance of R40.91. Only sent and received one WhatsApp short message.
Phoned 155 and was told that it was the phone updating apps. WTF. Never had this before. The guy said it showed Internet....Internet....Internet.
How can this be possible. Wonder what the balance will be tomorrow.

What charting software do you use Orca?
Don't have charting software. Use Reuters and draw my own lines.

Just watch the Indi on the Challenge. It will soon be the top index once again as always. Equities will always beat the market over time. This is why I have always recommended the Indi to new investors while they learn how to pick winning stocks.

Into my second month of retirement now. My wife has been doing bookkeeping as to our expenses per month. Strangely, we have spent less now than we did when we worked. Perhaps it is using the car to get to work and back and stopping to buy unnecessary stuff along the way. Working in town also does not help with Pizza Palace and Mug and Bean next to you and so forth.
First month. R12 938.53
Second month. R11 486.10
This includes our R4 900.00 rent and car insurance, DSTV, cellphone contract. No medical aid.
So far so good. Not yet had to sell any stocks and don't foresee selling any this tax year.

In my day Boksburg was akin to Fordsburg and Jeppestown. Kept well away. Rather stomped around Hillbrow.
Pretoria. More pleasant and quieter. Spent 2 years there after my folks volunteered me into the air force. Did not need to go but my Dad said I needed the discipline. Did not work but I did get fit enough to couch wrestle the pretty chicks there much longer.

I know it's Saturday and I'm posting. The only reason I know its Saturday is because my alarm went off. Being retired, I never know what day it is and so I set my alarm for Saturdays only and it shouts "bottle store--bottle store...". Bottle stores are closed on Sundays you know.
Anyway, I got good and bad news today. The good news is that my passport price has been dropped to 1 700 Nkandlas. The bad news is that my consulate has been closed down here in CT and now I have to travel to Pretoria to the embassy there. That means more Nkandlas for travel.
Many years ago, I told my wife that I will never ever in my lifetime go to the Transvaal again. No more mealies or mine dumps for me ever.
Sadly, I have no choice but to go back. May as well make it exiting by going by train. The Shongaloza thing looks good. They serve food on it I think. Must Google it now. Perhaps they even have a bar on it.

Well, there she goes. The word I was accused of with CML was "Hyping". Well, I hyped CML up from 24 to 80. All by myself. 
Now I am hyping MTA up from 42 to 97 by year end. If not 109.
