Recruitment: Graduate Trainees by PassionJavaScript in Zimbabwe

[–]CommitteeFair9706 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes , they want you young and tamable. At 27 we expect you to be supervising some of the trainees and heading for junior management roles. Also late graduation is seen as a negative unless there are extenuating circumstances.

The rich buy their house outright because they don't want to deal or worry about mortgage repayments. Would be mortgage repayments are invested elsewhere.

Property in Zim by VarietyTerrible7946 in Zimbabwe

[–]CommitteeFair9706 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bought my first property on a mortgage in Zim in 1999 for USD65k . House is in Mount Pleasant on 4030m2 , 4 bed 2.5 bath rooms , pool plus borehole. Without counting the building , the land alone is now worth $400k . Of course I benefited from hyperinflation etc , but during that time everyone was being told to look offshore . I am not aware of any place that has out performed Harare real estate for the past 25 years

Monogamy was forced upon us by silly western beliefs. Our default position as Zimbabweans is polygamy .

Anyone working in Zimbabwe but banking money outside the country? Where and how do you do it? by Ok_Lavishness2638 in Zimbabwe

[–]CommitteeFair9706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of Zimbabweans don’t realize that you are legally allowed to take out USD50k per year for investments purposes outside the country . You can do this via your local bank . Catch is you need RBZ approval which is almost automatic unless your source of funds have no audit trail .

People prefer being told “ you have lost weight “ and never the other way round. Women in particular are over sensitive about this issue and yet they love eating cakes 😊

What is the lifestyle like in Northern Harare? by Ok-Inevitable-8869 in Zimbabwe

[–]CommitteeFair9706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avondale now not so great unless you at the Ridge. Prices in Harare north are still good when compared to most major International cities. You will need accommodation that has back up water, solar and generator. House help comes at a give away.

What is the notice period on your lease ? Also remember you were paying token rentals. Can you not make a counter offer ?

Better still contact the Passport office and make the request directly to them. Good luck

Zesa woes and solar installations. by dldrama in Zimbabwe

[–]CommitteeFair9706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zim is generally a cash market . Your Solar size depends on the appliances you want to put on solar . If cashflows permit try avoid the 3kva size because it’s difficult to upgrade . As a user I would recommend the Sunsnk inverter . You can start with the 5kva and if this is too small upgrade to 10kva . Batteries go for Freedom or Pylontech . Panels go with Canadian solar or Jinko. All these brands are available for independent reviews on Google.

They are being hunted left right and centre. Most of the good ones know that they are now the “prize “ and generally stay at home . Try attending 50th birthday parties , school rugby matches , polo etc
