Explore Data Science Academy offers 500 free data science Learnerships for 2020

On: Aug 18, 2019Aug 20, 2019 By: admin

Sign up now for our fully sponsored 1-Year Data Science Program starting January 2020 and launch a lucrative career in the world’s sexiest job.

Explore Data Science Academy offers 500 free data science internships for 2020

Are you young, smart, ambitious and hard-working and looking for a bite at the ‘sexiest’ career choice of the 21st century? Africa’s leading data science academy Explore Data Science Academy(EDSA) has the offer of a lifetime for 500 of South Africa’s brightest minds.

Applications open today for its industry leading 12-month Seta Accredited Data Science Programme in 2020.

Applicants should be between 18 and 35 years of age.

No prior degree is required, but a quantitative background is useful.

Past interns have had varying skills including mathematics, marketing, media, medical and legal backgrounds.

To qualify for the fully sponsored one-year programme (including tuition and a stipend), applicants must successfully complete an online application, which probes candidates’ analytical and problem solving capabilities, as well as attend a data science boot camp and a round of interviews with the team at EDSA.

Launched just two years ago in Cape Town with 100 interns at its first intake, EDSA has an enviable track record of success and now has a second campus in Braamfontein Gauteng, as well as a new data analytics course. Plans are afoot for a third campus to open in Durban in 2020.

“We are the first African institution to offer a focused, comprehensive and free year-long accredited skills data science programme that builds the relevant digital skills within our youth, so that they can thrive in the new economy,” explains EDSA cofounder Shaun Dippnall.

“We know that we have a world-class facility,” states Dippnall, “95 percent of our 2019 programme graduates have been employed at a median starting salary of R360 000 a year!”

According to Dippnall, the five-fold increase in student numbers in just two years underscores the burgeoning demand for data science and analytics in both the local and global digital economy – a demand that currently far exceeds supply.

“Recognising the value of qualified data science skills, many of South Africa’s leading corporate companies looking to digitise their operations and leverage big data, have come on board to sponsor our training programmes,” Dippnall said. Founding sponsor BCX has invested R50-million over three years.

The Explore Data Science Academy is the brainchild of founders Shaun Dippnall, Dave Strugnell and Aidan Helmbold, all highly qualified data scientists with actuarial qualifications and experience in lecturing, research and consulting.

“We offer students a globally competitive faculty and a course which incorporates cutting edge training material, leveraging the latest in data science and artificial intelligence research. In the classroom and during the work-experience phase of the programme, we focus on experiential learning, in other words, solving real-world problems. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime,” concludes Dippnall.

How to Turn Your House into a Hot Money-Making Property

On: Aug 18, 2019Aug 18, 2019 By: admin

Property taxes. Utilities. Mortgage payments. There are all kinds of ways that our homes cost us money. Many of us hope that it will all pay off in the long run when we sell our house and property for a profit.

But there’s no need to wait that long. Why not make money from your home right now with one of these business ideas?

Add a Rental Suite

If you live in an area where it’s legal, you can add a rental suite to your property. If you don’t have room inside for a classic in-law or basement suite, consider converting your garage or even, if space and regulations allow, build a separate free-standing structure.

Be sure you research the regulations for legal suites in your area before you renovate or build. It’s common to require legal rental suites to have to have their own separate entrances, for instance, as well as full kitchens and bathrooms.

Also be sure that you research how much income your suite will bring in before you create one. Calculate how long it will take you to get back the money you have to spend on your renovation before you will start making money as a landlord. Rentometer is a handy tool for checking rental prices in your location.

Rent out Accommodation

The suite idea doesn’t work for you? You may still be able to rent out part or all of your property if you live somewhere desirable. And don’t think that you have to live in a resort area for your home to be desirable. Being close to a college or university, a hospital, a big employer or even living in a city with a tight rental market can make your property a place someone would like to rent.

The first step to making money off your rental is deciding what space within your home you’re going to rent. Bedrooms with their own bathrooms will obviously rent for more than a bedroom with shared facilities. To make the most income you might consider giving up your master bedroom if it has an ensuite. Then research what your accommodation might rent for. Spruce up as necessary. Take some good photos and voila! You’re ready to sign up to be an Airbnb host or put your rental listing on craigslist.

If you live in a place that appeals to tourists, you might want to consider moving out and renting your whole property in season. This is assuming you can live somewhere that would make this a positive cash flow situation.

Run a Bed and Breakfast

If you have several rooms available and want to maximize your rental income, turning your home into a Bed and Breakfast could be the way to go. Being able to rent out several rooms in your house nightly or even weekly can be a lot more lucrative than renting by the month.

Operating a Bed and Breakfast requires more of the hosts than just renting out a room — and providing breakfast is just the start. Research what it takes to start and operate a BnB before you start down that road.

Rent out Storage Space

But what if you don’t want to be a host or a landlord but you still have some available space that you’d like to convert into steady income? If the size and characteristics of the space are right, you might be able to rent it out monthly as storage.

Lots of people have vehicles such as boats, RVs, and motorbikes that they want to protect from winter weather but have no space to keep at their homes. Some are looking for year-round storage options. Letting someone else store their vehicle in your garage, shed, or barn could bring in some handy monthly income. Have space to build or convert? There’s an ever-growing demand for storage units.

Just as with rented rooms, take good photos of your space for advertising purposes, and be sure to note any special features (such as having a heated space) that will make your rental stand out.

If you have an acreage with unused space you can use it for outdoor storage as well.

Become a Market Gardener

Even if you live on a standard suburban lot, you can grow enough fruit, vegetables or flowers to sell. If you live on an acreage, you have even more growing possibilities. In many places, it’s common to see roadside stands selling fresh flowers, fruit, nuts, and local produce in season.

With increasing numbers of people becoming ever more concerned about the safety and wholesomeness of the food they eat (witness the growth of the organic food industry), the market for fresh, local food is burgeoning. So if you have one, why not put your green thumb to work and sell what you grow from your own property and possibly at a local farmers’ market?

Hold Events

If you own an acreage or small farm, you might be able to make money holding events. You don’t have to hold big concerts or music festivals to do it (although you can, of course, if you have the right property and the desire to hold such an event.) Many small farmers and landowners make a steady profit from agritourism, setting up seasonal mazes and labyrinths, providing hayrides, farm tours, and demonstrations and offering special event dinners.

Outdoor weddings in pretty, rural locations are always popular in season. If you own agricultural land, though, remember to check and see what commercial activities are allowed on farmland where you live before you start operations. Some activities may be restricted, prohibited or require special permits.

Start a Home-Based Business

All the ideas above for making money from your home are home-based businesses, but they’re not the only possibilities, by any means. Whether you want to actually work at home or use your home as your new small business’s base, operating a home-based business (rather than a non-home-based one) has advantages.

Are you ready to start a home business? And if you are but don’t quite know what business idea you’d like to pursue, here are the 10 best home business opportunities for now and tomorrow.

You Don’t Need to be Rich to Make Money in Properties

On: Aug 18, 2019Aug 18, 2019 By: admin

One of the common financial fallacies that keep many South Africans from building real wealth is that property investment is an investment alternative exclusively reserved for the rich, the educated or the experienced.“The wealthy don’t invest in property because they are rich, they are rich because they have invested in property,” says Van Staden.

This is according to Gert van Staden, CEO of the P3 Investment Group, who says it is a fallacy perpetuated, perhaps, by the fact that property is the preferred asset class of the world’s wealthiest, and the reality is that property investors are generally wealthy.

“The wealthy don’t invest in property because they are rich, they are rich because they have invested in property,” he says.

“The truth is that you don’t need to be rich, or even educated or experienced, to invest in property successfully.”

There are two reasons for this, says Van Staden. Firstly, property investors do not need a lump sum investment, or even large monthly investments to acquire an income-producing property asset.

For example, an investor does not need to have R500 000 in cash to acquire a R500 000 buy-to-let property. This is because an investor can get a mortgage bond, allowing him or her to buy a property with money borrowed from the bank.

“In investment circles, this is called leveraging or gearing, terms that most people assume are only for highly-educated investment specialists,” he says.

“But buy-to-let property investment allows ordinary South Africans earning ordinary salaries to also implement the highly effective practice of gearing, which the world’s wealthiest have used for decades to create wealth without using their own money and to significantly increase their return on investment.”

Of course, Van Staden says the bond has to be repaid every month, but the property generates an immediate and ongoing passive monthly income: the monthly rental. The rental keeps pace with inflation as the rental increases year after year, which allows the investor to use the tenant’s rental to repay the bond.

It is entirely possible, if the right property in the right area is selected, to obtain a 100% mortgage loan to acquire an income-producing property and earn a monthly rental from this property that will not only cover the bond repayments, but the other monthly property expenses too, he says.

“So, you don’t have to be rich to invest in property – you can acquire an income-generating property asset without spending your own money.”

How He Bought His First Property for Just R20 000

On: Aug 18, 2019Aug 18, 2019 By: admin

When I was 23 years old and practically broke, I bought my first investment property – with just R20 000 in my bank account.

After I finished university I realised that I wouldn’t get rich off a salary. I also saw that putting my money into a retirement annuity month after month wouldn’t get me to retire early.

So I searched for options to make money, at low risk and without loads of capital.

I’d make a little money investing in the stock market. But I wanted to invest in something a bit more tangible, that I had more control over.

That’s when I stumbled upon the secret of getting other people to pay for my retirement.

I bought a R365 000 property using other people’s money. I used the cash in my bank account to pay lawyers for transfer fees and leave some reserve to pay my initial shortfall.

Five years later I owe R320 000 on the property. I could fetch around R450 000 for the property today and bank a R110 000 profit after my initial R20 000 investment.

But that’s not the full story of how I’m becoming financially free…

How other people’s money will pay for my early retirement

The moment I bought this investment property the rental income I received from it basically covered the bond and levies. I only had to pay in R350 a month from my own pocket.

But the R3 500 rent I received immediately became income I earned in the bank’s eyes.

This meant I could access another loan.

This time, with a R10 000 deposit I secured a R555 000 apartment from a developer.

No transfer costs, no lawyers’ fees, not even a 10% deposit.

Year one I got R5 400 rental income a month, year two R5 600 and year three R6 000. Over the first two years I paid in R4 000 to cover expenses. By year three I had a positive cash flow.

By this time, the developer was selling his last units in the complex for R715 000.

From here on a tenant pays the property for me. I won’t have to pay in a cent going forward and I not only benefit from capital appreciation, I also collect cash every month to put towards my next property.

I’m 27 now. I own five properties. Combined, they’re worth R3.585m. I’ve used the bank’s money to buy all of them.

Over the years I haven’t invested much more than R100 000 of my own money. Yet, even after mortgage debt, my investments are worth R1.4m.

A couple more years and they’ll be paid off. By then I’ll own even more properties.

I could easy make enough money to retire earlier than my father.

I don’t need miracles, massive capital growth or a big bank balance. All I need is willing tenants and the bank’s money.

I’m sure you’ve heard rental horror stories, about property investors who lost money. That needn’t be the case.

Sure, I need to be prudent. I can’t overextend myself with debt. But I’m in the position where even a reasonable increase in interest rates wouldn’t hurt my property business.

I’ve picked up a couple of tricks from property managers regarding tenants. In five years I haven’t had a single month’s vacancy on any property I own. I’ve had only one slightly unsavoury tenant – who I got rid of quickly.

I’m constantly asked how I did it. And, after some persuasion from friends, I sat down and put together a guide on how to use other people’s money to build a profitable property business. I’ve now made this guide publicly available, for free. Just click here to get your copy.
