Imagine you put ₵10,000 into MTN 5 years ago. Back then a share was ₵0.67. Today it's ₵6.67.
That ₵10,000 would be about ₵99,500 now. And that's without counting a single dividend.
The ₵10,000 you left in your account? Still ₵10,000.
I'm not telling you to buy MTN. I'm telling you idle money does nothing for you. Put it to work.
Not financial advice. DYOR.
