Had a tough but fascinating talk with form 1 to 4 students at a 🇿🇼 high school in today. The topic was money.
My core message was simple:
Money is earned through value exchange.
You do not “get” money.
You earn it by offering goods or services valuable enough for other people to exchange money for.
Just like you don’t “get” a degree; you earn it.
I can tell a lot about a person about how they speak about money:
Let get that paper (not manufacturing it)
Getting that bread (not baking it)
Making Cheddar? (That’s valuable)
I tried to challenge how we speak about money. Instead of saying:
“Let’s go get money”.
We should ask:
“How do I become more valuable?”
“How do I create more value for others?”
Because if you can consistently provide value, you will never truly have “no money.”
Value can be:
Good food
Convenience
Security
Education
Entertainment
Skills
Technology
Solving difficult problems
A plumber earns because plumbing is valuable to people who cannot plumb.
A developer earns because software can solve problems.
A musician earns because joy and entertainment are valuable.
Then I asked the students what they wanted to become.
A large number said:
IRL streamers
YouTubers
TikTok influencers
A few said app developers.
Nobody said accountant.
Nobody said scientist.
What struck me was this:
Many of them admire wealth outcomes without understanding value creation.
One student said he wants to be like Elon Musk.
I explained:
Elon Musk became wealthy because he created massive value at scale, through payments, electric vehicles, internet infrastructure, rockets, communications platforms, and engineering companies.
Another said he wants to be like Mark Zuckerberg.
But the important question is not:
“How do I become Zuckerberg?”
The real question is:
“What value did Zuckerberg create for billions of people?”
Then someone said they wanted to be like Wicknell Chivayo.
Everyone laughed… 🤣
But... Whether you like him or not, whether you agree with the value he’s creating benefit to society or not, he’s creating value to someone or something. Could be at the detriment or others, who knows. But someone finds it valuable. You don’t get that rick without creating VALUE!
Pablo Escobar and Michael Jordan both have created value … for better or worse.
A lot of young Zimbabweans today can clearly see money… but cannot clearly see the value system behind it.
With people like Strive Masiyiwa, it’s easier:
We understand the value created through Econet and telecommunications.
The danger is when young people only see the money at the end, without understanding the years of value creation underneath it. Behind the slay queen with the orange iPhone, is a satisfied overweight married businessman.
Zimbabwe desperately needs a generation obsessed not with “looking rich” , but with becoming genuinely useful to humanity by creating value!!
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk
If I were in my 30s or 40s right now and wanted to leverage AI to retire within 10 years, here's what I'd do:
1. Immediately form an LLC company. Not next month. Not once you're 'ready.' This week.
𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗞 𝗢𝗙 𝗟𝗢𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗜𝗧𝗟𝗘 𝗗𝗘𝗘𝗗𝗦 𝗝𝗨𝗟𝗬 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟳. 𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗧 𝟭
Unbeknown to most Zimbabweans, in July 2025, the government enacted Statutory Instrument 176 of 2025 or the Deeds Registrations Regulations. These regulations require every Zimbabwean to validate their current title deeds by end of July 2027 in order to obtain the new securitized title deed.
If you have not completed this process by end of July next year, you risk losing title to your property through disputes, government forfeiture, or outright theft by opportunists working within the system.
The process involves five phases:
1. Document Auditing and Retrieval: This process entails verifying all your papers with your lawyer to ensure you have everything. This includes examining your purchase agreement, receipts, transfer fees, tax clearance certificate, capital gains tax, and proof of payments.
2. Rates and Council Clearances:
Next will be verification that you are fully paid up on your municipal rates and taxes in order to obtain a clearance certificate. From there, you will also need clearance from ZESA. If any monies are outstanding, you will need to settle them before receiving your clearance.
3. ZIMRA Clearance:
ZIMRA will assess whether you are fully paid up on your property taxes and capital gains tax. This process will also check whether you paid fair value for your property to determine if adequate capital gains tax and transfer fees were paid.
If your property is deemed to have been undervalued when you purchased, it will be re-evaluated and you will be liable to pay the shortfall in taxes, transfer fees, and penalties before receiving tax clearance.
4Lodgement:
Once you have your municipal, ZESA, and ZIMRA clearances, alongside your title deeds and the other documents verified in the first process, it becomes mandatory to engage a conveyancer to take you through the remaining steps.
Here, you and the lawyer must go together to sign DR forms and submit your ID, biometrics, company registration papers, or trust documents if the property belongs to either of the two.
To avoid becoming a victim of fraud, try not to give lawyers power of attorney to handle such sensitive matters because properties are often lost during these processes.
5. Surrendering Documents:
The final step is submitting all the documents collected above: title deeds; receipts; capital gains records; municipality, ZESA, ZIMRA clearances and DR forms.
If you have lost your title deeds, you will need certified copies and must undertake a notarial process where you place an advert in the newspaper notifying the public for 30 days that the property is yours, allowing anyone wishing to challenge ownership to do so.
This title deed validation process has been promoted as a way to secure title deeds through digitisation. While securing title deeds may indeed be beneficial, it is also undoubtedly a money making opportunity for municipalities, ZESA, ZIMRA, conveyancers, and Kuda Tagwirei’s Dokma, which will digitise the title and offer securitized deed.
Now here is the threat. If this process is handled in bad-faith and profiteering intent, as has happened with mining rights and as they are attempting to do with CAB3, many people are going to lose properties because:
(i) Where there are multiple people claiming title, a vetting process will be required. As seen in mining fraud cases, people within the current Deeds Office can then collude with wealthy individuals to create duplicate title deeds. Property can then be lost during verification or court processes where members of the Deeds Office and judiciary work with cartels to seize properties, as is happening in mining.
(ii) Where title deeds are lost or not verified by July 2027, government could potentially take over such properties and sell them to cartels.
The fact that private entities such as lawyers and cartel owned Dokuma are involved means there is room for the usual fraud and corruption.
One of my favorite businesses is tires because the demand is permanent.
Every car needs them. Every fleet needs them. Every delivery driver burns through them.
It is one of the most recurring purchases in the real world.
But let me fix one thing people get wrong.
Importing tires from Vietnam is not automatically zero duty. It depends on the exact tire type and HTS classification, and tires have also been hit with extra trade remedies in the past.
So before you fall in love with the business, price it with the real duty rate and worst case scenario built in.
Now the playbook that actually works.
First, pick one lane. Passenger, light truck, commercial, trailer, or specialty. If you try to sell every tire to everyone, you will drown in SKUs and slow moving inventory.
Second, your real customers are not end users. Your real customers are small tire shops and repair shops.
They already have traffic, they just need a supplier who delivers fast and answers the phone. If you win a handful of shops, you have recurring weekly orders without spending money on ads.
Third, storage is not the problem people think it is. Start micro. Rent space from someone with unused garage or warehouse space, or split a small bay. The only thing that matters is that you can pick, pack, and deliver fast.
Fourth, do not waste money on samples shipped by air. Tires are heavy. Use ocean freight for samples or buy a tiny first test order, then scale when you see what moves.
Fifth, your advantage is not the price alone. It is availability. Most shops will pay a little more if you can deliver today and keep them from losing a customer.
If you want a business where customers come back again and again, tires is it.
Roofing might be once every 20 years.
Tires might be twice a year.
What other business could have this level of recurring revenue?🤔🤔
my uber driver had two phones on his dashboard
one for navigation. one had stripe open.
"you run a business?"
"i sell a checklist."
"a checklist?"
"pre-flight checklist for people scared of flying. $34."
pulled up his stripe at a red light. $8,400 last month.
"how'd you come up with that?"
"i'm in a facebook group for flight anxiety. 94,000 members. every day someone posts 'flying tomorrow i'm terrified what do i do' and the same people type the same answers over and over."
"so you wrote down the answers?"
"organized them. what to do 24 hours before. at the airport. during takeoff. during turbulence. stuff people been giving away for years."
"people pay $34 for that?"
"people pay $34 to not have a panic attack scrolling facebook threads at 3am the night before their flight. they want it clean and done in one place."
"how do you sell it?"
"tiktok. 1,100 followers. text on screen with a calm voiceover. one video hit 890K views. still sells 3-6 copies a day four months later."
one video. still paying him while he drives strangers around.
he'd been driving for 2 hours. made $41 from rides. made $136 from checklist sales in the same window.
"why still drive?"
"every third passenger asks about the second phone. that's free marketing."
he was using uber as a lead gen channel.
meanwhile you're spending 6 months filming a $197 course with ring lights and a script you rehearsed 14 times.
this guy typed a google doc on his lunch break and it outearns his job.
94,000 people answering the same question every day for free.
he's the only one who charged for it.
the information has always been free. the person who organizes it gets paid.

Wasiya ini ndanga ndisinga kubhilivhe. U once offered me huku all u said was come to village 6 and I was like haiwa akutsvaga nyaya yekudarika pandiri. Well ndikuuya kuhuku yangu, I now believe
If you look at this picture, this is exactly where KwaTerry Restaurant is now. It was my big garden and i would sell vegetables and derere around Turf area and construction companies around Zimplats. The tree in the background is now our tree house Restaurant. On the side i had my fowl runs for Roadrunners and Broilers. I decided to take a shot for value addition in putting a Restaurant in the Village. Today we have a thriving Restaurant in Village 6. Thank you for believing in me🙏🏿🇿🇼
A wise man once told me, “when you join a new employer, your first task is to study power dynamics in that organization and know who is connected to who. That’ll give you an idea of which lane not to cross”!
Some people will just be Clerks but carry so much power. That power has a source and if you don’t move wisely, you can be inconvenienced.
