Rich but paranoid

It was nearly two weeks since Mr Joe búun got raided.It was a very clean and discret move considering that Mr Joe búun shares the same fence with a local police post.But that's not the main issue.

mmmMH or is it?

Let's check the numbers

In south Africa the security industry is worth a billion dollars.Not forgetting that at the same time the government still investing more resources ,human task force into the Military and interior security to ensure citizen's safety.

But as Steven Levitt says in his book Freakonomics."If Morality represents the ideal world,then Economics portrays the real one".Going back to south Africa's billion dollar industry.Let's be honest someone somewhere is creating a system ,quickie and easy.

If we are to really look at it in the cause and effect way.No thieves,Less offenses and the lesser the offense ,the less the number of security company or corporation needed since there is no job for them to do.But thanks to the thieves and buglars who have led to the sprouting of 9000 private security companies and 2 million jobs.

Mr Juan decides to erect a security fence.The thieves stole two HD television sets,phones,microwave,shoes and valuables and let them stranded.But isn't he rich? The valuables stolen are replaced with his monthly subscription insurance company.But he is worried.What if they come back again and this time cause more harm than before? So Mr Wang'enge signed up for the local community patrol security Olosho security.It costs about $60 or more per month for their service but that's not it.He is paranoid now and just to go an extra mile while passing by I saw technician install an electric fence.But isn't that too much.

Working hard to get the money at the same time working hard to protect it.Two CCTV cameras are installed at the gate where one can see.But not forgetting someone willing to rip you off can go an extra mile not considering what measures you have put in place to protect yourself , therefore the CCTV sounds a lame plan and what made it lamer if there is such a word is by them putting a metal board on the wall warning.

"This place is under 24hr surveillance."

Things seems to be going berserk since at the police post 3 families reported that they were raided a night before and what makes it .Seems this are Hungry hungry thieves.The estate seems to be now in fear, considering literally everyone in the estate has a car or two meaning this are wealthy middle class citizens who are now loosing sleep not knowing what might happen next.

On Saturday the last day of the month the same drill happens again..to Mr Wang'enge.He gets raided again and this time seems the thieves are even more aware of the house than anyone else.The alarm does not go off.There were no traces of them jumping up the wall.The go straight to the masters bedroom at night and request Mr and Mrs Wang'enge the phones.The demand for their password and transfer the money to their account they then tie them up and go clear out the 52 inch television,the microwave,the sound system plus all cellphones in the 🏠 house.Just incase they alarmed the neighbors they wouldn't have a cellphone out of their reach.
