RETURN TO SILENCE
The moment you realize that you are not living your life,
The moment you discover that you are sacrificing your health, wealth and welfare for a woman and you get nothing in return,
The moment you learn that you have become something else, an exhausted man, worn-out, used, haggard, a shadow of what you used to be,
That is when the reality begins to kick in.
You are a MANIPULATED MAN.
A MANIPULATED MAN has lost everything he owned.
His health, his sleep, his energy, his goal, his vision.
His woman is only warm to him when she wants to benefit, but becomes colder when it doesn't serve her.
Once this reality kicks in, a manipulated man returns to silence.
That silence terrifies both the manipulated man and his manipulative wife.
Because silence will become a mirror that tells the man THE TRUTH.
The manipulated man is terrified of the truth because truth will pierce his heart like a sharp sword slicing his pound of flesh.
The truth is that he has been living a lie, and this is the truth he fears.
But it is the truth.
The woman is also scared that the truth will restrict her access to the man, block benefits and wake up the man from his sleep.
It is here that the woman will tell the man,
"Your silent treatment is the reason I don't respect you anymore."
"If you continue treating me with your silence, I will leave, and you will never find a wife like me again."
"I am the only woman who understands you; no other woman can tolerate your silent treatment."
All these guilt-trips and gaslighting to keep the man under a tight leash of ignorance and manipulation.
And the man will become guilty, and attempt to go back to the old self,
The old manipulated man who chose comfortable silence instead of confrontation to keep the peace, and he continues to suffer in his peace, while tolerating manipulation because he is so terrified to return to silence.
DON'T BE AFRAID of SILENCE, because silence is where your truth lives.
Silence makes you see your shadow and observe its depth.
Silence makes a man see his flaws and his weaknesses.
Silence makes you connect with your spiritual truthfulness.
Silence makes you see who truly values you and who says she values you just because of the emotional, psychological and financial access you gave them.
RETURN TO SILENCE,
You will see what your ordinary self never saw.
SILENCE is the antidote to EMOTIONAL MANIPULATION.

If you are not ready to have a baby, WEAR A CONDOM.
Or, ABSTAIN during her fertile period.
Don't force a woman to get an implant, a coil or hormonal pills to cover your sexual convenience and primitive cravings.

Men,
About Red-thigh women
They are very attractive and seductive.
They are very beautiful.
They have mellow voices.
But once you sleep with her, your life goes down the drain.
She captures you in her dragnet.
She is like a human-vampire that sucks your energy and leaves you empty and dry.
You get hooked to her charm despite her strong foothold on your neck.
You empty your wallet for her, you share your dreams with her, you ostracize yourself from your parents and siblings.
You are hooked to her like an addict who is hooked on cocaine.
But, she has no history of stable relationships despite being beautiful and charming.
All her relationships ended in deaths or her men or the men were jailed in prison.
You will be the next.
You will be jailed or killed in mysterious circumstances.
Before you sleep with any woman, scrutinize her past.
Don't pick women in clubs and sleep with them.
The Concubine by Elechi Amadi tells the story of a red thigh woman.

10 REASONS WHY YOUR WOMAN DISRESPECTS YOU:
1. You are FAT:
Women are very loyal to their standards. She could be horribly fat but will not touch a fat man with a 10-foot pole. Women disrespect fat men because they see them as lazy, weak and useless. She will deliberately praise you for being fat because she wants you to remain fat so that she can zero-graze you, manipulate you and cheat on you. It is worse if you have manboobs. She sees you as her fellow woman. She will disrespect you.
2. You are addicted to smoking or alcohol.
These two addictions are so uncouth. Smoking makes you thin and weak while leaving a stenchful mouth. Alcohol on the other hand impairs your judgement and takes away masculine power. She will disrespect you.
3. You watch pornography and also masturbate.
Watching pornography is a signal that you are soy or beta. Women hate men who watch it because they cannot stand a man who enjoys watching another woman's private parts. Masturbation on the other hand makes women dislike you because it is yuck! She will disrespect you forever if she learns that you masturbate.
4. She is older than you.
Women look for leaders. She looks upto a wiser man to lead her. If she is older than you, she will treat you like a boy. She is with you because of sex but will soon resent you and go for men who are older than her because she disrespects you.
5. You are a stepfather to her child.
Actually, you are a whiteknight. She sees you as a man with no options in life. Try raising your voice against her child and see what happens. You are a weakling. You are in her life as a desperate man. She is wondering why you are struggling to raise the child of another man. On the front end she will manipulate you with "a strong man raises a child who isnot his own" but in the backend she is seeing you as a cuck. She disrespects you.
6. You are indecisive.
Women disrespect men who cannot make a decision. They disrespect men who refuse to make a decision for fear of upsetting her. You fear losing her if you make a decision. Trust me, she will still go. Women want you to make that painful decision. Make it. If you fear to be firm, unbowed and decisive because you fear upsetting her, she will disrespect you.
7. You have no boundaries.
You have no standards. You cannot say NO. When she cheats, you forgive her and bring her back. She sees you as a pantywaist. She will cheat again and disrespect you forever.
8. You are available.
You are always there. "Baby, baby this, baby that." You don't give yourself time to be scarce. She is always seeing you from Monday to Monday. She is bored. She will disrespect you.
9. You have no purpose and goals in life.
You are lazy. You are on TV and politics the whole day. You play video games. You have nothing of value going on with your life. Zero purpose invites contempt from women. She will tell you "other men are out there and you are here warming the house." She will disrespect you.
10. You are dirty.
There are men who are dirty. They cannot take a bath. Their underwear is dirty. Their feet are stinking. They cannot flush the toilet. They are just dirty! The words from their mouths are so uncouth. They speak bulshit in front of children and relatives. She will disrespect you.
If you are offended, come beat me.

I’ve read The Millionaire Next Door so you don’t have to.
Here are 10 lessons that can genuinely change how you think about money:
Read till the end⤵️
1. Most millionaires are invisible.
They don’t live the flashy lifestyle social media sells. Many look completely average, which is exactly why they’re able to build and keep wealth.
2. Wealth isn’t income.
Making a lot of money means little if you spend all of it. Real wealth is the money and assets you still own after years of earning.
3. Looking rich is expensive.
Luxury cars, designer clothes, and constant upgrades often slow wealth creation more than people realize.
4. Freedom is the real reward.
The purpose of money isn’t to impress others. It’s to give you control over your time, choices, and future.
5. Small habits create big fortunes.
Wealth is rarely built through one lucky break. It’s usually the result of smart decisions repeated for decades.
6. The wealthy budget differently.
They know where their money goes. Every naira or dollar has a purpose instead of being spent impulsively.
7. Delayed gratification is a superpower.
Many people buy what they want now. Wealthy people are often willing to wait so they can have far more later.
8. Ownership changes everything.
The biggest wealth creators usually own businesses, stocks, or assets that work for them even when they’re asleep.
9. Social pressure keeps many people poor.
Trying to match the lifestyle of friends, colleagues, or influencers can quietly destroy your finances.
10. Wealth is built before it’s visible.
By the time people notice someone’s success, years of discipline, sacrifice, and smart decisions have usually happened behind the scenes.
The biggest takeaway from the entire book:
Most people spend money to look wealthy. The wealthy spend money in a way that eventually makes them wealthy.
@amerix The day Kenya will confirm the first case of Ebola, America will probably be the first country to ban Kenyans from entering the USA. But what is Kenya's government doing? I think we're led by a bunch of zombies. We voted in ICC indictees. We deserve all this tbh.

“If a brother teaches you how to fish, don’t fish in his pond.”
Real men respect boundaries.Real loyalty is shown behind a brother’s back, not just to his face.
Never betray the hand that helped you grow.
Si ata wewe umeona kung’oa reli na kurusha mawe has nothing to do with circumcision or idleness?
Si ata wewe umeona it has nothing to do with a certain part of the country? Or behavior?
You can see that now right?
Alafu Jomba,
If you don’t learn money skills,
Someone else will profit from your ignorance.
Understand how money works
Why what you earn is not as important as what you keep.
Someone earning Kshs 100k and spending Ksha. 90k is worse off than someone earning Kshs. 50k and spending Kshs. 30k while investing Kshs 20k
Learn money skills like how to Earn, Budget, Save, Invest and Manage money
THIS MIGHT HELP SOMEONE.
