[THE DIVIDEND DOMINATOR @TheAlphaThought]

Most people give up on dividend investing too early.

Not because the strategy doesn't work.

But because nobody told them what to expect at each stage.

There are 3 stages every dividend investor goes through.

Here's what they look like:

@JacintaNgobese @ShweleNgelosi To all illegal foreigners don't worry, if you are left in South Africa after 30 June you are also through to the knockout stages! 👊🏾🇿🇦

South Africans are not lazy. We are not unwilling to work. We are not sitting around waiting for handouts. We are being systematically denied opportunities because the system has been rigged against us. Jobs that should go to our people are going to foreign nationals who are willing to work for far less than the minimum wage. They undercut us, exploit loopholes, and accept wages that no South African can survive on. And employers whether out of greed, convenience, or sheer disregard for the law choose them over us.

This is not about laziness. This is about survival. A South African father cannot feed his family on R10 an hour. A mother cannot send her child to school on a salary that barely covers transport. But foreign nationals, many of them undocumented, are willing to accept those conditions because even that is better than what they would earn at home. And so they take the jobs. They take the shifts. They take the opportunities that should belong to our people.

And what happens to us? We are labelled lazy. We are told we do not want to work. We are mocked for demanding fair wages, decent conditions, and a living. We are gaslit into believing we are the problem. But the problem is not our work ethic. The problem is that we are being priced out of our own economyby a system that prefers cheap labour over dignified work, by employers who prioritise profit over people, and by a government that refuses to enforce the very laws it claims to protect.

We are tired of being told we are lazy. We are tired of watching our children grow up without hope. We are tired of being sidelined in our own country. South Africans are not lazy. We are angry. We are frustrated. We are fed up. We have been denied opportunities, denied dignity, denied our rightful place in the workforce.

And enough is enough. We demand that the minimum wage be enforced. We demand that employers be held accountable. We demand that foreign nationals be employed only when no South African is available and only at legal, fair wages. We demand that our people be given first preference, not last resort.

We are not lazy. We are waiting. Waiting for a chance to prove ourselves. Waiting for a government that will stand with us. Waiting for an economy that works for us, not against us. And we will not stop demanding. We will not stop speaking. We will not stop fighting until our people get the opportunities they deserve.

We have all heard the word xenophobia the fear or hatred of foreigners. It is a word weaponised against South Africa every time we enforce our laws, protect our borders, or prioritise our own people. But what about tribalism? What about the deep-seated hatred, distrust, and violence that Africans inflict on each other within their own countries based on ethnicity, language, and region? Where is the word for that?

TRIBOPHOBIA, Not a dictionary term yet, but perhaps it should be. The fear or hatred of people from different tribes. The systematic discrimination, exclusion, and violence that has plagued Nigeria, Kenya, the DRC, Rwanda,Sudan, and countless other African nations. It is not xenophobia, because it is not about foreigners. It is about your own people. Your own neighbours. Your own kin.

What do we call it when a Nigerian is denied a job because of their tribe? What do we call it when a Kenyan is attacked because of their ethnic group? What do we call it when a Rwandan is killed because of their identity? Or When a Shona has more privileges than a Ndebele? What do we call it when a Congolese is displaced because of their region? These are not acts of xenophobia. These are acts of tribalism, systemic, deadly, and ignored by the very same people who accuse South Africa of hatred.

We do not have a word for it because we do not want to face it. It is easier to point fingers at South Africa than to look at the mirror. It is easier to cry xenophobia than to confront the tribalism that is tearing Africa apart from within. But we will not be silent. We will not be gaslit.

If you want to speak of hatred, look at your own countries. If you want to speak of exclusion, look at your own constitutions. If you want to speak of violence, look at your own militias. You are not xenophobic! you are tribophobic. You hate each other first. And then you project that hatred onto us.

Let us name it. Let us call it what it is. And let us stop pretending that South Africa is the problem. The problem is tribalism and it is killing Africa. We are not the enemy.

@SoulFairy3 @ntodeni_ @EasyEquities it shouldn't be an article, this is an entire book,

[Veggies247 @veggies247md]

@SoulFairy3 @CoruscaKhaya Thank you so much for this great initiative. I will definitely send comments as my kids are asking me and i have to sometimes google. Once you are done, we have to push that this is included in LO module in schools. We cannot continue raising financially illiterate communities.
