TAS is a weird one I am comfortable buying little little every time it hits below 230 cents, but I won't like this to continue, but I think we will remain in these 210 - 250 levels for a few months then when our economy gets a bit better and people can afford to eat out again then TAS will be able to release a positive looking result hopefully and I believe if those factors fall in place that is what will start the slow bullish years to come for TAS, but it won't happen until average citizens's money becomes more again, since now everyone is turning around there hard earned money to afford basic goods which has sky rocketed tremendously. I use myself as an example I have 2 dominoes one next to me and one further down, but I don't go there like I use to do this time last year and the simple reason is, petrol is up, bread is up, eggs is up, chicken is up, red meat is ridiculous up, basic stuff like toilet paper, cleaning appliances everything is up and average people just can't justify eating out in these conditions, I believe that plays a role in why Taste holdings is struggling currently well not struggling I mean why there share price is not too bright investors probably figure they will just buy more TAS once the economy recovered and average people can afford luxury food again. http://www.moneyweb.co.za/mny_sens/taste-holdings-limited-audited-summarised-consolidated-results-for-the-year-ended-29-february-2016-and-notice-of-annual-general-meeting/ I'll just leave those here...

Looks like TAS hit bottom at around 9:30. Think it's on it's way up now but yea, just a guess.

Did it at work once. Basically 11 out of 12 of us just all put money in each month and gave it to the 12th person on a rotational basis. Served by a Droid

Made the mistake of depositing via EFT instead of cc. Still waiting for ee to reflect Money reflected as I typed the above. Put some into TAS, DBx, a bundle and change into Adcock Ingram (don't ask why).

What is wrong with adult children living at home?
AstroTurf replied to PirateJack's topic in General Chat
Some times it works, other times it does not. My Sister and husband as an example have been "given" her husbands parents house. The parents have moved into the granny flat. They are paying for electricity and all the rest but there is no rent. Everybody wins. Oh, except that her husbands brother also lives there in an outside room, rent and expenses free, works casually and does what he wants, when he wants, including raiding their fridge. -
These easyequities baskets actually seem to do ok. Put R50 into one to test. Also put R100 into DBXWD, DBXWD is haemorrhaging at the moment (the uk vote thingy I guess) but the basket @R50 is keeping my total at more or less R150. I did modify the basket before purchase (removed tobacco and some of the property things).

How much is your cell phone bill?
AstroTurf replied to Spreadsheet Ranger's topic in General Finance
Currently ranges between R1700 to R2500. I think the R1700 range should be more standard from now on (I hope so anyway, my Wife keeps throwing money at some bloody competition that charges you per vote because she uploaded a photo of our son to it). I have 3 numbers on my contract: LTE Basically I had a 2gb+2gb vodacom data contract for R199pm including an lte router. I was USSD'ing anything from 2 to 7gb to this on a monthly basis. The Router is paid off so I upgraded the contract to a 10GB PAYG contract meaning I either have to fork out cash for data or have no internet at home till month end. Anyway, the 10gb Contract costs a total of R299pm so I am saving myself between R150 to R750pm My Number: Stays stable at around R750pm My Wife's number: Usually stays stable at around R450 to R650pm. With this bloody competition thing it fluctuates between R650 to R900pm -

AstroTurf replied to Spreadsheet Ranger's topic in General Finance
I played with it for a minute, basically in google sheets just highlighted all on the first sheet, then went Format>Number>More Formats>More Currencies and changed it to South African Then I did the same for the next sheet. Then I changed all the date rows back to Date format and the whole thing seems to still be working quite nicely -

Also using 22Seven as I like how I can categorise and split transactions and how most transactions are automatically put in the right category I doubt I am getting it's full potential though. -
Thank you for the tip Quoted so I can find it easily in a month or so when there is actual data for me to look at

haha. I actually removed a bunch of the stuff from the basket before purchasing, already had around R100 DBXWD so now there is a wall of companies. I also bought R2.11c worth of shares in Adcock Ingram just to clear my available funds I would prefer an excel type view to see what is going on there though, oh and just like the demo money, a bunch of red numbers although value has gone up a whole 0.22% since purchase at around 9:10am
-
Well, I spent R50 and change in one of these baskets just to have a little bit of interest (the demo money does not hold my interest in the least). Thought it would be a good place to get started and play. Served by a Droid

The JSE was a nightmare this week down 2% today. That's horrible so much so it scared me. 2 months worth of gains lost in a single day. Good time to start buying stuff or wait a few more days? Served by a Droid That depends on what stuff. In my opinion it's a case of the time to buy is when there’s blood in the streets. Big companies (too big to fail) style companies are on special now. Your Capitecs your Curro's you STX40's your DBXWDs they are all good buys for me at this moment. Believe jse shutting down for a few hours tomorrow. Wonder if that has something to do with it Served by a Droid

I bought a demo money R10000 basket just to see what happens. Really have no experience or knowledge but would like to get started on this for real in a month or 3. Lots of the shares are currently in the red, the vast majority of them.
