White Shop: Rhodesia is Super T-Shirt

We have been riding the South African rollercoaster for more than 5 years now. Most investors have nausea, whiplash and headaches from the many ups and downs and feel frustrated that they have not been able to grow their wealth in line with any reasonable inflation benchmark.

Is there light at the end of the tunnel or should we buckle up and brace ourselves for the next round?
