Education Sector?

 

Bullish Thoughts is seriously thinking of investing in a primary and high
school. Yes, he is considering going to Chegutu Lands Committee and getting
a 20ha plot where he will farm tobacco and leave enough space to build the
schools.

 

He is going to employ a few local dudes to mold farm bricks and then buy a
few face bricks from Willdale or Beta Bricks and construct a school deep in
the woods there.

 

The fees will be $2,000 per term for Grade 0 to 3, $2,500 for Grade 4 to 7.
For the high school, because the children will be writing Cambridge exams,
the fees will be $4,000 for Form 1 to 4 and $5,000 per term for A Levels!

 

Extra-curricular activities will include court tennis, table tennis, soccer
(after ramming down some former maize field), netball, basketball, baseball,
Yoga, Karate, swimming, show jumping, etc.

 

If the school enrolls two classes each for Grade 0-3 with 20 students in
each class that's a nice revenue account.

Now isn't that a nice revenue account? That doesn't even consider the
acceptance charges that are higher than a term's fees. Some listed entities
would actually envy that. As for expenses, the investors will charge a bus
levy to buy buses for students, books levy to buy books and sports fees to
equip the sporting facilities. Incentives & donations will be used to pay
for staff salaries, etc.

 

This venture will not have to increase fees to boost revenue, just the
number of students and capped at 20 per class for quality!

 

Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

 

With Lomagundi charging around $3,820 per term, Hellenic Preparatory $2,000,
Watershed $3,220 and Falcon circa $3,500 per term you get the drift!

 

After paying an arm and a leg for Lower 6 First Term fees for little Miss
Bullish Thoughts, and two Mr Bullish Thoughts Jnrs, Bullish Thoughts Snr was
left convinced there might be a business case for investing in a school.

 

Any potential partners out there so that we get the ball rolling?

 

 Bullish Thoughts is offering his idea, connections at the Mash West Lands
Committee and being Treasurer/Bursar for the school as capital.

 

Don't worry about demand, a crusade encouraging procreation will be underway
once potential backers are on board.

 

What is the Return on Education (ROEd)?

 

The investment aside: Are you getting your worth from the numerous schools
after spending the whole term scurrying to raise school fees?

 

Will your child even see the doors of a university in future if education
costs continue spiraling out of control?

 

Is it not time that you started seriously saving and investing to prepare
and secure the future of your loved ones?

 

Not all will be able to continue walking on the financial minefield that
education costs have become once they leave the C-Suite!

 

Invest Wisely!
