I laugh about these jokes juu my auntie owns a ka-retail shop in a Kenyan town that sells school sweaters which makes very low sales.
The purpose of that kashop is to direct people to a cheaper “store/duka ya supplier” two streets further downtown.
Guess nani supplier?!
@kilundeezy Ride hailing apps pricing model in the Kenyan economy always feels wrong,it doesn't factor in total cost of car ownership(commercial insurance,PSV license,service)drivers labour,app commission,margin, nikama it covers the fuel cost only, any trip less than 650 is not sustainable
The older I get, the more I realize this: A KSh 10 million Mercedes and a KSh 1 million Toyota will both get you to your destination. A KSh 50 million mansion in Karen and a modest home in Ruiru or Rongai will both give you a place to rest. The most expensive phone still makes the same calls as a cheaper one. Money buys comfort, not contentment. Real wealth is peace of mind, good health, meaningful work, and people who genuinely care about you.
@moneyacademyKE It is not easy to be Kenyan
High fuel costs
High electricity costs
High taxes
High debts
High education costs
Poor medical care
Insecurity
Unemployment
Poor leadership
@kamauwaruhiu Aki uku nje mkona foresight hatari, if seriously liquid, would be advisable to convert to a valued stronger currency.
History will definitely repeat itself
@Joe__Bassey catastrophic harm & human elimination is what Africans need as we can never resolve systemic economic inequality and poor resource distribution since we cant/will never advocate and effect reforms, transparency, and institutional change. besides the system is a mess to everyone.
Please don't ask for Uber money to the initial dates if you're anything above 28. Or to be picked up. It's a total turn off. Get other cheaper means or get your priorities straight. You can't be 35 asking for Uber money, man. It smacks lunacy. And an egregious lack of seriousness.
I would sooner you postponed the date until such a time you can afford an Uber, if you must use it. There are buses. There are motorcycles. Find your way to the date if it's really a date you seek. I don't want to get you an Uber, not because I can't but because I do not wish to validate that kind of irresponsibility in an adult.
