When money is continuously channeled into depreciating, high-visibility assets to project financial status, it directly reduces the actual capital available for wealth creation.
This creates a structural vulnerability where an individual must maintain a high rate of active income just to service the ongoing costs of that lifestyle.
True wealth, by contrast, is measured by financial resilience and autonomy; the quantity of time your assets can sustain you without active labor. Because wealth resides in unspent capital, investments, and equity, its primary characteristic is that it remains largely invisible from the outside.

A legend in my book.

Safaricom-backed charger Adil Khawaja of Car No. 44 (AK44) retained the top fundraiser position for the fourth consecutive year after raising KES 216 million, the highest amounts ever raised by a single team at the Rhino Charge event.

M-KOPA, M-SOLAR, M-BODA: MODERN-DAY COLONIALISM.
I met a senior county officer who works in the Revenue Department.
He began telling me how the County Government has not paid salaries for 2 months and how people are suffering.
He told me he is 46 years old, having worked for the Government for 21 years.
All this time, I joined his jeremiad, nodding in agreement while validating his disgust for the Governor.
He didn't know I was Amerix, so the chat went on and on.
After our chat, he requested that I pay for his M-Kopa subscription, which he had defaulted on for 4 days.
I asked him why he had defaulted, and he said he was broke.
I paid for him.
Then, I left.
I didn't want to ask him anything about the phone.
But, it is here I learnt that the M-Kopa slavery is so deep that it will take decades to unplug the masses from this subtle tool of control.
M-KOPA (and such models) is modern-day slavery.
The difference with the 18th-century slavery is that while the ancient slaves were in chains, modern slavery happens in the most powerful land. — THE MIND.
— and the modern slave masters don't use whips.
They use attention, desire and dopamine-triggering flicks.
They no longer put you in the chains of Amistad, but in the chains of debt.
