Still no CoreShare divi payout on EE. ABSA paid on 19th alreadyHave you phoned them to find out what the delay is - as they seem to be co joined with ABSA and they have paid dividends
Had to go back on Monday for a PET Scan. The machine that rotates around the body to look for cancer but also makes you radioactive for a week.So the reality is "Local is lekker"
I had to twiddle my thumbs for 9 hours waiting for all her appointments and the scan. This is a schlep but we decided to book a hotel for 3 days for the results instead of travelling back to Viana and back again for the results.
The results were good as she has no cancer outside of her throat soft palate. So it has not spread and we were elated. Thank God.
This is getting very expensive with all the travelling and hotel costs and we have now decided to rent a holiday home for 5 weeks in Porto near the hospital. So we will be paying our normal rent for our home plus the extravagant holiday home. But I have to do it to be near my wife during her treatment.
Just a tip to those travelling. Next to our hotel was a MASSIVE mall with a food court that skriks for niks. Must be about 30 food stalls with a common seating area. We ordered fried fish chips and a salad for €4.5 and were given a single portion of fish with a few chips and some salad.
I then noticed a man next to me at the table with 2 portions of fish and double my chips so I asked him what price he paid for it. He paid the same as we did and told us that he is a regular as most are and tourists are ripped off as they only visit once.
This also happens when you go to a pub for a beer. If you are local, you pay less.
Just hold onto ADI. It has big moves up and down but you will be rewarded in the end. She has exposure to 38 countries globally that earns USD. I am holding a big steak in ADI and will keep her.Orca - I hear you I still hold 5,000 shares but I bought in 2015 over time at an all inclusive price of R9.76 and sold 5,000 at R 11.15 - not really shooting the lights out and with these latest ratings downgrades they may suffer with not getting business as their pricings may not prove to be competitive or foreign countries could shy away from SA companies until the dust settles
Sad what is happening in our country, but purely from an investment perspective I am quite excited about the next few weeks, will be lots of opportunities presenting themselves.Yup - keep your powder dry and buy up bargains - reminds me of 2007/2008 all over again
F&^%$ me, now I wanna cut my wrists...Why - did you bail out of your shares on Friday and now they are all showing an improvement in values?
