In 2024 after loosing my first job, I opted to start a small business. A smokie vendor.
I had a trolley which used to give me a daily profit of around 500 everyday. If I subtract my food, I could save atleast 300 bob everyday. I never had off days. I could open even on Sundays.
Consistency in small, daily actions produces results that look sudden to observers but are entirely predictable to anyone who was watching the process.

How can teachers be conned?
Teachers!
These are the professionals who teach our children about morals, discipline, forthrightness, patience and hard work.
In Mathematics, English literature, History, Religion and Social Studies, they teach with figures, passages, and lived stories about being cautious when investing your money.
In these subjects, they emphasise doing due diligence and educating children that you can't earn a windfall overnight.
You must work hard, consistently and patiently to earn legitimate income.
If teachers can be gullibly conned, then what is the purpose of EDUCATION?
In Kenya,
Every politician wants to own a political party,
Every pastor wants to own a church,
Politicians and pastors are snake oil merchants selling lies packaged as hope to gullible masses.
The main stream media is the other misleading tool.
News are misleading and biased.
News thrive on people's emotion.
They evoke fear, anger and resentment.
The advertisements create cravings and dopamine thrills.
How could a main media house in Kenya post that?
Yet we trust this media and depend on them for information.
Media is also in business, and has nothing to do with informing you.
