As a neuroscientist, here are 8 ways to maximise misery:
1. Check your phone immediately after waking.
Flood your brain with news designed to make you anxious and angry.
Women are buying homes & investing in share portfolios.
Men are buying women meals, drinks, flights, baecations, booking them ubers, paying for nails & wigs, and paying their rent.
You thought Club Med was a massive project for the North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal, but have you heard about the R50 billion city being developed?!😱
Zimbali, as we know it, is about to transform into a luxurious city on the coast. Developed by IFA Hotels & Resorts (IFAHR), they will now build the Zimbali Marina and The Zimbali Country Estate with over 1000 residential units, located across the N2 from Zimbali Lakes.
Over the past two decades, R30 billion has already been invested in Zimbali Coastal Resort and Zimbali Lakes Resort (under construction). Zimbali Lakes includes the Ernie Els Signature Course, which opened in April 2025.
The above, paired with the newest phases (Zimbali Marina and Zimbali Country Estate), brings this project’s total development cost to R50 billion.
It’s all giving Dubai vibes, but I am here for it. It’s great to see the North magnetising so much future investment. I am hoping that this actually ends up happening… And that Club Med will be a catalyst for more resorts to set up shop in this area as well. There are many neighbouring land parcels here that are undeveloped and brimming with potential.
The weather here is excellent year-round, and Cape Town has become expensive. The Mother City could do with some coastal competition in the real estate market.
The Zimbali Marina project will boost tourism and fishing/commercial activities, while providing world-class residential units. The Zimbali Country Estate will launch next year.
What do you think of this Marina development for KZN?
