You're supposed to use every unfair advantage you have. Looks, genetics, connections, dad's money, whatever.
There's nothing noble about choosing the hardest path just to feel like an underdog.
One thing I’m not good at is styling. I really admire people who style something thrifted so well that an outfit looks chic and expensive. Mimi nikivaa top ya 30bob itakaa top ya 30 bob.
One thing I find interesting is how people treat business and employment as if they exist on opposite planets. Someone posts a G-Wagon and says, “You can’t buy this with a salary.” Then everyone nods as if every business owner is out here casually ordering G63s for breakfast🤣.
The reality is much simpler.
1. The average employee cannot afford a G-Wagon.
2. The average business owner cannot afford a G-Wagon.
The guy running a small shop, the farmer, the boda spare parts dealer, the salon owner, the consultant, the restaurant owner, the livestock farmer, the online seller et al, most are working hard, paying bills, reinvesting profits and trying to grow. They are not shopping for KSh 30M+ cars casually!
The same applies to employment. Most employees won’t afford a G-Wagon. But let’s not pretend there aren’t CEOs, surgeons, pilots, lawyers, senior engineers, footballers, executives etc buying such cars from salaries, they are there, but a tiny fraction just like only a tiny fraction of business people who can afford them.
The truth is that G-Wagons or Bentleys or Ferraris et al are not a business-owner thing or a salaried-person thing. They are a high-income thing. Whether you are in employment or business as long as you are in a high income bracket, you will casually afford it.
The problem with social media is the survivorship bias. We only see the successful entrepreneur with ultra expensive cars and assume that is what business ownership looks like. We don’t see the millions of business owners struggling to make a payroll every month.
Likewise, we see an underpaid employee and assume employment can never create wealth, while ignoring the millions of highly paid professionals quietly building wealth through salaries.
Most people in business won’t own a high end car and most people in employment won’t own it either. The people who do are outliers in both respective groups.
We should stop making it sound like entrepreneurship is a guaranteed luxury-car subscription and employment is a guaranteed poverty sentence. Reality is far more nuanced than that buana. This is why I keep cautioning you all from listening to too much motivational speeches and speakers who offer nothing but hot air!
You have a Range Rover but you're coming for a girl who lives in the same apartment with a broke boy like me. Some men surprise me and I think that's a sign of esteem issues. When I get money broke women will never hear from me istg.
@realskeka The universe has a bizzare sense of humour only experience can teach.
The filthy rich is ugly and the poor is stupendously beautiful. Each armed with unique talent to draw in people hitherto outside their reach.
1. Everything a woman does is intentional, even when she's ignoring you.
2. No one suffers more than a man who has pure intentions for a woman.
3. Whatever a man is addicted to becomes his god.
4. A man can't get pussy unless the woman agrees to it. If she cheated, it was definitely her idea, not his.
5. A man's true strength is revealed when he falls.
6. Always take it personal. Patterns don't lie.
7. A man who's never had his heart broken is like a sword never tested in battle.
