Not what my friends are doing. Not what the bank recommends. What actually builds wealth in Kenya.
Here’s how to save and invest your money the right way.🧵

הנשיא טראמפ:
לאזרח�� ישראל: למי מכם שטרם ראה זאת, אני מצרף את הודעת התמיכה שהענקתי לפני שבוע לראש הממשלה שלכם, ביבי נתניהו. כולם יודעים, כולל האויב, שלביבי ולי יש מערכת יחסים מצוינת ושאנחנו מנצחים יחד.
ביצעתי את המתקפה בוונצואלה, אחת הפעולות הצבאיות המוצלחות ביותר בהיסטוריה. עוד קודם לכן ביצענו את מבצע ״פטיש חצות״, שמנע מהמדינה המובילה בעולם במתן חסות לטרור להשיג נשק גרעיני.
לאחר מכן ביצענו את מבצע ״זעם אדיר״, וכעת לאיראן אין חיל ים ואין חיל אוויר. הצבא והכלכלה שלה מרוסקים, והאינפלציה באיראן עומדת על 301%. המצור הימי מנע ממנה לקבל נפט, ושתי שכבות של הנהגה, צבאית ואזרחית, אינן עוד.
כשתלכו לקלפיות, אנא זכרו שביבי הוא ראש ממשלה לוחם יוצא מן הכלל!
אנשים רעים מאוד כינו את ישראל ״השטן הקטן״ ואת ארצות הברית ״השטן הגדול״. אסור עוד שהקריאה ״מוות לאמריקה, מוות לישראל״ תישמע ברחבי העולם, והיא לא תישמע.
הצביעו לביבי נתניהו לראשות הממשלה. עלינו להשלים את המשימה שהתחלנו!

Every month, a Kenyan earning KES 100,000 hands most of it to listed companies: Quickmart for groceries, TotalEnergies for fuel, Safaricom for airtime, Kenya Power for electricity, EABL for the weekend.
What if they paid you back?
At current dividend yields, about KES 15.5M across 7 NSE stocks would generate enough dividends, after tax, to cover that KES 100,000 lifestyle. That’s an average yield of about 8.2%, higher than most savings accounts and close to T-bill rates, and you still own the shares.
The trick is matching your biggest bills to the highest yields. BAT at 12.5% covers KES 30,000 rent with KES 3M invested. Kenya Power covers a KES 3,000 electricity bill with just KES 0.6M.
You don’t start at KES 15.5M. You start with one bill.
Don’t just be a consumer. Be an owner.
Which bill(s) do your dividends cover?

The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) wishes to inform taxpayers that the Fringe Benefit Tax Market Interest Rate and the Deemed Interest Rate have both been set at 9% for October, November and December 2026.
For deemed interest, a 15% withholding tax applies and must be deducted and remitted to KRA within 5 working days.
Employers, businesses and other affected taxpayers are encouraged to take note of these rates and ensure compliance with the applicable tax requirements.
🚨 Public Notice: Clarification on eTims-IFMIS Intergration
KRA, in collaboration with the National Treasury, wishes to clarify that the eTIMS–IFMIS integration accommodates both valid eTIMS and TIMS invoices.
All suppliers doing business with Government entities are encouraged to take note of the applicable invoice validation requirements to ensure seamless payment processing and compliance.
