BRO TO BRO:

If your phone gets stolen, the first thing thieves usually do is remove your SIM card.

Do this now:

Save your IMEI number somewhere safe.

Dial *#06#

A 15-digit number will appear.

Take a screenshot and keep it in your email or cloud storage.

If your phone is ever stolen, that number can help with tracking, blocking, and ownership verification.

Most people only learn this after losing their phone.

An RA is a retirement savings account with one very unusual feature:

Every rand you contribute lowers how much SARS taxes you.

Up to 27.5% of your income is deductible. Earn R30,000 a month and put R3,000 into your RA? SARS doesn't count that R3,000 as income. You pay less tax. That difference comes back as a refund at tax season.

SARS literally subsidises your own savings.

But the second layer is where it gets serious.

Everything inside your RA grows completely tax-free. No CGT. No dividends tax. No tax on interest.

You're compounding without the state taking a cut along the way.

Budget 2026 just raised the annual deduction cap from R350k to R430k. First time since 2016.

The government just expanded the incentive. That's worth noting.

Yes, there's a catch: you can't access your RA before age 55.

That's by design. That restriction is exactly why SARS gives you the tax break. You lock it away. They reward you for it.

At retirement, you can pull out 1/3 as a lump sum. The first R550,000 of that is tax-free.

The rest funds your income for life.

Most people discover this product at 40.

You found out today.

The religiosity of athletes and soldiers (and people who primarily use their bodies as the main tool of trade) v the hostility towards religion by artistic creatives (many have a god complex) needs to be studied

I see intellectual vegetables are angry about the 600 million for put aside to curb unrest and looting that might show face.

Listen, this money is not from what you presume to be your taxes.

Government's leverage is in the ability to make money out of thin air.

“You’re only given a little spark of madness. If you lose that, you’re nothing.”

Robin Williams often repeated that line in his stand-up and interviews, reflecting his belief that creativity, individuality, and a little weirdness are worth holding on to.

THE FAMOUS ID APPLICATION HOSTAGE THAT HAPPENED LIVE ON RADIO @Yfm @djsbu 👇🏿
Kabelo Thibedi is a man remembered for his dramatic hostage taking at a government office to obtain his long delayed identity document.
On the 30 November 2005 the 21 year old walked into the Department of Home Affairs regional offices in central Johannesburg and held a female staff member Lanelle Small, hostage inside an office for around six hours. Armed only with a toy gun, Thibedi demanded the immediate issuance and delivery of his ID book. His extreme action stemmed from years of deep frustration ,he had waited more than 2 years, submitted 9 unsuccessful applications, and had already lost a job because he lacked the required document.
The standoff captured national attention. Radio stations across the country received calls from listeners who expressed strong sympathy for his battle against bureaucratic inefficiency. While barricaded in the office, Thibedi called in the popular youth station YFM and spoke live with DJ Sbu, who suddenly found himself acting as an on air negotiator, trying to calm the young man and warn him of the potential consequences. The broadcast dramatically heightened public awareness, drawing thousands of supportive reactions.
To end the crisis Home Affairs officials arranged for Thibedi’s completed ID book to be flown by helicopter from Pretoria to Johannesburg. Once it was handed over, police used stun grenades to storm the room and arrest him. In 2006, he was convicted of kidnapping and sentenced to five years in prison.
He later appealed the sentence. In October 2009, the South Gauteng High Court backdated it, allowing him to avoid serving time in actual jail.

I’m putting together a compilation video of statements made by ANC ministers about South Africans and will be sharing it across social media platforms. I also plan to run targeted ads aimed at young voters during the election week on TikTok, Facebook, YouTube. These people are too comfortable in their positions and out of touch with the realities of South Africans.

Elon on Speed

“I always tell the teams: compress the timeline. Take a 10 year plan and try to do it in 6 months. You’ll probably fail, but you’ll be so far ahead of everyone else that it doesn’t matter. Most companies move at a glacial pace. We try to move at the speed of light.”

In 2011 Drake bought a “Less Drake More Tupac” sign from an art showing in Los Angeles

Drake said he felt like ripping it down at first, but he then realized that he’s now the representative of the new generation hoping one day someone will make a sign like that for him, saying “Less whatever, More Drake.”

Kevin O'Leary says Steve Jobs taught him the one skill every entrepreneur needs to master

"I learned this from Steve Jobs. I told this story countless times. He was not a nice guy, but in the 90s, I made all of his software for the Mac in schools, 110,000 buildings. He was an absolute a**hole, but he taught me some very important things, and he was wildly successful."

"He said that each day, including you, each day there will be three things you have to get done, just three, and that's called the signal."

"And there's going to be a plethora of things that are going to stop you from doing that and that's called the noise. So the only thing you have to get good at in your life to be an entrepreneur is to distinguish what's signal and what's noise."

"And then you do not let noise get in the way of getting the three things done. They get done first."

[Rory Sutherland @rorysutherland]

Here's a compromise idea to redress the marginal cost of use. Make annual car tax £500, but give everyone £250 of public transport vouchers in return that are non-transferable. (You would need special exemptions for people who lived in the far north of Scotland and so forth). Then see what happens.
