A lot of market men and women still do this alot. Infact, one came to me two days ago to join but obviously I declined because I can comfortably save money in hbd and be earning interest. The good part of it is the picking early number and then using the money contributed by others to do your bussinnes and make profit to keep contributing for others but like u mentioned, you must do it with people you know...cos two friends of mind lost their hard earned money to thrift
Sincerely, I don't see myself doing this even in the future but for those market women, it's a good way for them to save of only they are doing it with trusted team
