About

Gerald here, and I’ve created this blog as a platform to explore and discuss the complexities surrounding issues related to South Africa. I started this blog writing about SASSA grants but of late I have started adding my personal experiences relating to finances and business.  I want to provide insights and information that are both informative and thought-provoking.

I’m just a regular guy trying to figure out this whole personal finance and business thing. I’m not an expert, but I’ve learned some lessons the hard way and I’m here to share my experiences with you.

I made quite a number  of financial mistakes. I also decided to take the plunge and start my own business a few years ago. It’s been an incredible journey full of ups and downs, successes and failures.

I’ve learned quite a bit about entrepreneurship, marketing, and perseverance. And I’m excited to share those lessons with you.

My goal with this blog is to provide a relatable, honest perspective on personal finance and small business. I’ll share the real-life stories and actionable advice. My hope is that by learning from my experiences, you can avoid some of the pitfalls I faced and get ahead on your own financial and entrepreneurial journey.

I’m not here to preach or lecture. I’ll keep things casual, fun, and easy to understand. No financial jargon or business school lingo here!
