I spent KES 95K on Starlink, plus another KES 6,500 for the first month's subscription. Yes, it's a lot. I initially hoped to resell it in the village, but after a month of using the service, I took a pause. Tried to answer all the questions you might have in this thread

Money falls into 3 categories that each serve a different purpose.

• SAVINGS give you peace of mind.
• INVESTMENTS build your wealth.
• SPENDING funds your current lifestyle.

Optimize these 3 categories and you'll feel good about your money.

10/ Create Meaningful experiences early on.

Your ability to extract enjoyment from wealth declines with age.

When you are young, you have few responsibilities and better health to travel.

We retire on our memories, make sure you make meaningful ones.

Buy land near a school, a market or business district that is growing.

Wait and sell it after 5 years at 10 times the initial cost.

If you run a business, buy the land upon which your business sits.

If you buy land in a Community, turn yours into a Small Park.

These are tangible Things worth more than Money.

After land, buy and read books and do what they say. An investment of Kes. 500K in yourself will have infinite returns.

If you love wildlife, Adopt-a-Hyena at KWS and give it your Surname.

If you are wise, Start a Podcast. Give @semabox all that money. They will help you monetize your Wisdom and Digital Asset

If you love cats, buy 10 Turkish Angoras and feed them well. Open an Instagram page and be happy

If you love education, Start-a-Library or educate 10 Children.

If you love disco, this is very good money to invest in your happiness. Don’t listen to bad music with spoilt earphones for 365 days to wait for Kes. 70k only. Why suffer?

Play to Win. Not out of fear but out of Understanding the Nature of Things. The point of Life is Us.🥇

Lastly, Buy Land. In Rural Areas. It is Cheap.

But if you feel that money is small money. Eat that money!

Have I left out something?

43 common-sense life lessons to teach your kids so they grow up healthy, wealthy, and wise:

1. Don't type anything you wouldn't want printed on a billboard.

2. Money can't buy happiness. But it can buy the time to find what makes you fulfilled.

3. Most people fail because they quit. The rest fail because they never even try. Never let fear of failure keep you from trying.

4. Mistakes are lessons in disguise. Everyone makes mistakes. Winners learn from them.

5. The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary. If you want something, work for it.

6. There will always be rainy days. Always be prepared for a down time, because there will always be another one.

7. Every down is followed by an up. When you're feeling down, rest assured all you have to do is keep going. You'll be up again.

8. When someone tells you who they are, believe them the first time.

9. When someone does something kind for you, express gratitude. No exceptions.

10. Kindness comes from strength. Niceness comes from weakness. A nice man needs something. A kind man has everything he needs.

11. Closed mouths don't get fed. Nobody can read your mind. Winners know what they want and aren't afraid to express it.

12. People are ultimately self interested. You can use this for good or you can use this for evil. Use it for good.

13. Loyalty is more valuable than gold. If someone sticks with you in your down times, never lose that relationship.

14. If you're being criticized, it means one of two things: you're winning, or you're being a jerk. Make sure you know the difference.

15. The loudest criticisms will always come from below. But if you get criticism from above, make sure you're listening.

16. A happy life is built by asking yourself "am I proud of how I acted today?" and making sure the answer is always yes.

17. If you can't change it, if it's in the past, if it's out of your control: put it out of your thoughts.

18. Don't let your happiness depend on something others can take away.

19. Don't put all your happiness eggs in one basket. Have multiple things that make you happy.

20. Happiness can be defined as sustained fulfillment. Sustained fulfillment requires sustained improvement.

21. When you hold a resentment against another person, the only person who feels it is you.

22. You don't forgive people for them, you forgive them for you.

23. The early bird catches the worm. This doesn't mean you have to wake up early. It means you have to act quickly when you see an opportunity.

24. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. He'll drink when he's thirsty. Layers to that.

25. Many hands make light work. A good team is far better than the sum of its parts.

26. Every action has consequences. You'll always reap what you sow, eventually.

27. If you're unsure what to say, stay silent.

28. If someone gossips to you, they'll also gossip about you.

29. If you want respect, earn it.

30. Your mother and I love you unconditionally. But no one else in this world will. Act accordingly.

31. Never be too predictable. Mystery begets intrigue. Intrigue begets devotion.

32. Where there's muck, there's brass. The best opportunities come from getting our hands dirty.

33. There are 2 kinds of people in this world. People who clean up trash, and people who watch other people clean up trash. Be the first kind.

34. The measure of a man is how he treats people who can do nothing for him.

35. Time waits for no one. Every second you waste is one you'll never get back.

36. If you're feeling down, create something. If you can't create something, help someone.

37. Empty vessels make the most noise. Those with low ability overcompensate with bravado.

38. A rushing stream gives clean water for life. A stagnant pond just breeds mosquitos. Never stop moving, always stay active.

39. Don't cross bridges you haven't gotten to yet. Don't fight giants that don't exist. Don't solve problems you don't have.

40. Pride comes before the fall. If you're feeling prideful, be weary. A humbling experience is likely right around the corner.

41. If someone tells you something's free: it's not.

42. Learn people's names. They'll love you for it.

43. If someone calls you a horse once, ignore them. If someone calls you a horse twice, refute them. If someone calls you a horse 3 times, buy a saddle.

If you've made it this far, thank you for reading. I write these to share with my own kids, and I hope they're helpful for other parents out there.
