Financial Maturity

If at first you don’t succeed, well you must just be like the rest of us mere mortals!  But what do we mean by succeed and against what are we judging ourselves and that level of success?

Financial Maturity

“One of our dinosaurs is missing!” Remember that little fun movie? Well Polokwane, home to ANC coups and pending World Cup football, has just scripted the sequel. “80 of our ambulances are missing!” No seriously, out of 100 new ambulances they have lost 80, honestly. Has anyone been charged, fired, suspended or even given a slapped wrist? Don’t be silly, but an investigation has begun into how 80% of the regions ambulances are missing and or intensive care, well what a relief and how decisive!

Financial Maturity

Firstly, if you don’t have a TV on July 11^th 2010 and you are a sports fan, then fake an injury and get into a decent hospital ward or get yourself into a pub with a TV, can I suggest my favorite second home The Boer and Brit at the Alphen Hotel, it has two screens! Yes, on that day we have (I can hardly contain myself) the British Grand Prix and the World Cup Soccer Final…… Wow!

Financial Maturity

Yes sport and money are very similar.  You are up, you are down, you are flush and then you’re either flat broke or broken!  One minute you are hailed a star, then you are old news, suddenly you’re back again with all things forgiven, just ask Dave Beckham and Lindsay Williams, he was the Summit TV front man banished for being competent and is now back with that excellent Warwick Market Report on FMR 101.3 and www.bizcast.co.za – a bigger come back than Lazarus, well done son!

Financial Maturity

Is it me or has everything become a bit of a “Moveable Feast”?  They say that there are Lies, Damn Lies and Statistics, but lately it seems that Liar’s and Damn Liars are found out by statistics!
