Stock Market Investing

Recently I decided to take more interest (pun intended) in the stock market. I participated in the MAM Game; and although I came no where near winning the game - I took a healthy profit on my initial investment of R1800. (A little over 200 Euros or approximately $300.) I also saw the top 50 in the competition all took profits of over R10000. (A little over 1000 Euros.)

This as all definitely made me want to take even more interest.

So I now attended a course with my brother and father on how to use the basic indicators (trend and cycle indicators) to predict price movement and the applicable entry and exit points. I hope to have the software soon so I can continue to take more interest in the stock market.

Thursday

Well its Thursday again and the wheel keeps on turning. I have finished two UNISA assignment already and have now started on my third. Sandra has settled back into the routine of lectures and daily studying.

We have booked tickets for St Petersberg Ballet peformance of Swan Lake on the 2nd May. We are greatly looking forward to that.

Sandra is studying in the air conditioned bedroom and I am going to go join her now with my text book.

Scrambled Kefir Eggs

For those who do not know; Sandra has become a Kefir culturer. And every day I enjoy the product of her work (normally at breakfast time.)

This evening I was asked to quickly make a supper. So I made scrambled eggs with tomato, bell pepper and onion. But when I beat the eggs before adding them to the pan I added a little of our new "secret" ingredient. I did this without telling Sandra.

I later served supper. Sandra initially was a bit nonplussed about the idea of scrambled eggs for supper. But after she had her first taste, she said to me:-

"How did you make the eggs taste so nice?"

And I replied:-

"Kefir".

I quite liked that one. For those who have still not seen the cartoons that the Islamic world is making so much violence about; here is a link.
