the dirty business behind financing clean energy [thread]
global coal capacity is responsible for 40% of electricity generation globally driven heavily by India, China, Indonesia & Vietnam
in SA, 87% of our electricity comes from coal*
*this excludes coal used for hookah & braais
SA just locked in $8.5bn* in funding to transition away from coal from the US, EU & UK. Whenever developed nations are cheering on for Africa, it's worth pausing
*This buys you roughly 2x bottles of Armand de Brignac at KONKA or a double popcorn combo at Ster Kinekor
- don't use the company laptop
- don't buy stock under you & your wife's name!!
- don't close out trades the morning of the deal announcement
- don't leave a search history Googling other insider trading cases
- avoid insider trading completely

Keen to YOLO on a meme coin & buy a lambo? Looking for the next Shiba? Here's a quick guide [Thread]
1. Winners get to the party early & leave early
By the time you hear about the pump, it's too late. When it's run 10,000% up sure you might squeeze a bit of juice, but you will probably end up holding the bag
Mia Khalifa or Meek Mill tweeting about it? It's over. Don't touch it
2. Make sure you can actually exit
There's no point having 7 figures locked & loaded but you can't get out because
a) transaction (gas) fees will ruin you
b) there's just no liquidity in that unheard of meme coin
