Instead of using that 500K to buy another plot of land that will not generate any cash flows for you, why not explore other options?

500K in an infrastructure bond with a 13% yield will give you 65K per annum

500K in a special fund like Mansa X will earn you 88K in interest per annum (Mansa X has averaged 17.6% p.a over the last 5 yrs)

500K in a SACCO like Stima Sacco will earn you 60K in dividends from share capital or 47K from rebates on Savings.

500K in a dividend king like BAT will earn you 60K in dividend income per annum.

9 uncomfortable truths about life you need to hear before it’s too late

1.

[GISTE @ggiste]

In 2014, shortly after graduating from university, my net worth was about KES 200,000. While in campus, I was always trying different businesses. In first year, I did analogue photography because most students did not have smartphones. In second year, I ventured into farming, which ended up being loss-making. In third year, I got into the charcoal business, which turned out to be my gold mine, that thing has money margins with low overhead costs. By fourth year, I was operating two motorbikes while pursuing my studies and eventually graduated with a First Class degree.

After graduation, I secured employment with a gross salary of KES 55,000 and a net salary of about KES 43,000 after HELB deductions. Most of my friends who earned similar salaries moved into one-bedroom and two-bedroom houses around Ruaka and Thika Road. I made a different choice.

Having come from campus life where we shared bathrooms and basic facilities, all I wanted was a clean and hygienic place to sleep. While bedsitters were going for around KES 10,000, I settled for a single room in Dagoretti Corner at KES 6,000 per month. I saved about KES 20,000 every month and lived on roughly the same amount.

I focused on building assets rather than appearances. I lent money to friends for development projects, took up online writing as a side hustle, and continued investing in myself. I remained in that single room for four years.

I had made a promise to myself: buy land and build a secure home before upgrading my lifestyle. Some ladies who visited me could not understand my decision. They often told me that with my income, I should rent a better house if I ever hoped to get married.

I stayed the course.

By the time I was ready to start a family and move into a one-bedroom and later a two-bedroom house, my net worth had grown to approximately KES 10 million. During that period, I also pursued further studies, improved my skills, changed companies when opportunities arose, and kept growing professionally.

Over the next eight years, my salary increased nearly tenfold. My network expanded, my opportunities increased, and my investments compounded. Today, my net worth stands at about KES 72 million.

I am simply a boy who attended a day school in Lugari.

Life teaches lessons every day. Some people learn early and adjust. Others learn when it is already too late. The biggest lesson I learned is that wealth is built quietly through discipline, patience, continuous learning, and consistency, not through impressing people.

Stay focused on your journey. Your current situation is not your final destination.

Men,

No school wants you to know the art of making money.

If schools started teaching this, all courses would collapse.

The government would be next.

Pass wealth-generation skills to your son.

Trust no one.

Tell your son this.
