Special funds are not for the faint hearted especially if you put some money in Oak fund ngai father 🙌🏽
Generally you need to be clear whether you're investing for the long term or short term then choose the right vehicle. I think that's my lesson this year

@nellys I got my Oak Statement. I was like wah.... this fund manager. But truly tht ibkr reason why you know this is because Oak gives you monthly return Statements. This month was bad for most people even Arvocap. So again these investments- are long term investments.

Read the fine print before you engage with any fund manager's product. Most Arvocap products mean business when they say top up is 100000 ksh.

@camila101 🤣🤣 I'm curious, what happens if I throw in a ka50 thousand there?
Tachi · 9 Nov 2026
@camila101 the monthly statements are the part that hurts Oak. The rest might be going through drama but you can't know cz by the last day, they would have recovered and balanced the madness
