All I need is a breakthrough. An employment breakthrough, a financial breakthrough, a healthy family breakthrough etc.
I just want to experience all this ngisaphila...
Banks will market credit cards, overdrafts, personal loans, car finance, and lifestyle products all day long. They will follow you across every platform with ads encouraging you to swipe, borrow, spend, and upgrade your life. That messaging is everywhere because it keeps the system running and keeps the profits flowing.
What they will never promote to the average person is, buying shares in their own bank. That is where the real wealth sits. If you owned shares in Firstrand, Nedbank, Standard Bank, Capitec, or even retail giants like Shoprite or Clicks, you would receive dividends twice a year while your investment grows quietly in the background. That is the side of the system the public is rarely told about.
In reality, there are two completely different worlds operating at the same time. In the first world, the public is pushed deeper into credit and consumption. In the second world, shareholders sit behind the scenes benefiting from the very products being sold to everyone else. It is the same machine, but two very different positions inside it.
The funny part is that you will never see these companies posting something like: “Buy our shares. Become an owner. Build long-term wealth with us.” They avoid that because credit gives them instant profit. Ownership creates long-term wealth for you. And that is not something they feel the need to push aggressively.
I wanna report @PicknPay & @picknpayasap to the @cgsombud for scamming me of thousands of rands of tips I thought go to drivers but the drivers don’t get a cent, I reported this for months and they don’t care, clearly this is what they do. That’s fraud!
Here is my take… I think we hold people accountable and are willing to place being treated with mutual love and respect above the fact that we are related. We are “the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb” generation. 🤷🏾♂️
