To know that youโve grown up and youโre going to be wealthy, normalize these things:
-Itโs okay to drive the same car ๐ for 10 yrs plus. Wealthy people donโt change cars anyhow . I learnt this from. @wekesa_amos. Heโs the same Land Cruiser for over 14 yrs.
- Stop giving money to anyone who asks for it urgently. Also donโt give them the exact amount. If they ask for 50k , skip a day and give 20k.
- Normalize eating at home. Stop ordering foods nga ate Olina emikono egifumba. Home cooked meals will always be the best.
- Keep your phone until it actually needs replacing. Stop chasing new iPhone models yet youโre still struggling with rent.
- Itโs not a crime to buy something โusedโ. Buy it if makes a sense. The Landrover I drive all over this continent I bought it used. Am the 4th holder but it still a performer.
Qtn: Which of these 5 do you already do, and which one hurts to read? ๐
Share with me and letโs learn together.

My son, a bank does not lend you money.
In the village, an impatient farmer roasts his unripe maize because he cannot endure the wait. He feasts for a single night, but when the harvest season arrives, he stands alone in an empty field.
When you take a loan to buy a car or fund a weekend, you are eating your own young crop.
You are not spending the bankโs wealth. The bank is simply providing the tools for you to steal from the old man you will one day become.
Be patient. Leave tomorrow's harvest in the soil.
Be blessed.
Ugandan politicians have no shame. First they sit a press conference on the fact that there is too much corruption and government is doing nothing about it. The President appoints an aggressive young pair to fight corruption and they sit another press conference of talk about how wrong the methods of fighting corruption are and how how these aggressive methods will lead to government losing money in court cases. This is an MP who will take 315 for a car and they got another one just five years ago. They really care about government losing money I can see! You buy a car of over 200m and in five years it is down and out?

My son, do not fall for a woman.
The choice of a wife is too important to be left to the gravity of love.
You can buy the best land and build the strongest businesses, but the woman you marry will dictate the final outcome of your life more than any asset you acquire.
The right woman will multiply your empire, but the wrong one will bankrupt your soul and your pockets.
Be blessed.
