@MwangiBonnie My kids attend a public school in Sydney, Australia.
They have way better facilities than the very expensive private schools in Kenya.
I ONLY buy uniforms and pay a little for some school excursions here and there.
Same applies to medical services.

This is a public school in Texas.
My son attends it.
It costs me $0 annually.
After I pay my taxes.
A big fat, $0.
I challenge anyone to find me a better
The last school is my primary school.
Right here in Kiambu.
That picture is not from when I attended.
It is how it looks today.
These, ladies and gentlemen, are the results of choices. Of decisions.
The people making decisions are with public funds MATTER.
More than we like to admit.
This school in the last picture is the result of stolen and misused CDF funds. Of mis-used funds.
Millions of our children are paying the price for decades so that a few people can live out their wildest imaginations.
I want to stop this.
But I cannot do it alone.
Will you join me?
Prudence. Purpose. Progress.

Scammers found a way to make people drain their own wallets without sending them a phishing link.
They uploaded YouTube tutorials showing people how to build an AI crypto trading bot with Claude.
People followed the tutorial themselves.
Copied the code.
Deployed the smart contract themselves.
Funded it from their own wallets.
And approved every transaction themselves.
Except the โtrading botโ had no trading logic.
It was built to send their ETH straight to the scammers.
224 wallets lost 274.6 ETH, worth about $517,000 when it was stolen.
The median victim lost 1 ETH.
Some victims even got an error after getting drained telling them to deposit another 50% to fix the bot.
They literally got people to build, fund and approve their own wallet drainer.
You've got to be very careful this days
Today I had a very interesting conversation with a certain mzee. ๐
Every Thursday, he goes to Rumuruti Livestock Market.
He buys 30 cows, each at an average price of KSh 75,000. After transport and other logistical costs, each cow costs him roughly KSh 80,000.
Each cow has an average dead weight of about 130kg.
He runs 10 butcheries, and each butchery sells approximately 3 cows per week.
He sells beef at around KSh 750 per kg.
So, one cow gives him:
130kg ร KSh 750 = KSh 97,500
Then you add the head, matumbo and other parts, and he says he makes about KSh 105,000 per cow.
If the total cost is KSh 80,000, that gives him approximately KSh 25,000 profit per cow.
With 30 cows a week:
30 ร KSh 25,000 = KSh 750,000 profit per week.
Thatโs roughly KSh 3 million in four weeks. ๐ณ

Lakini of all startups Copia ilikua na mchezo sana. My mum ordered like 10 plastic seats back then. They were all delivered at zero delivery cost. 150kms from Nairobi. Her next two orders were free delivery as well๐ Was the margin big enough to cover that? No wonder they raised $20M in Dec 2023 na wakaingia administration in May 2024.
Monetization of software is dead now.
Anyone can clone your app in few hours, copy your ads, ditto your positioning.
I see a new opportunity now.
Monetization of SLMs (small language models)
You can fine-tune 0.5B to 12B models for specific use cases.
Then sell licenses to these models like you do for SaaS.
Models like Deepseek v4 pro, GLM 5.3, Kimi k3 or even GPT 6 Astra are really smart at understanding fine tuning jobs.
From preparing the dataset, LoRA adapter, to exporting the model as GGUF or MLX, these models can do end-to-end jobs for you.
I've fine-tuned 20+ models in last pne year and I'm surprised that not many people on X talk about this.
A fine-tuned SLM can beat a SoTA model on specific use cases.
That can drop API costs by 95%, make it 5x faster, and its your model, hosted privately.
Custom SLM > SaaS now. Dive into this space.
An important project I think everyone should do:
I got a 16TB hard drive and I'm downloading as many open source models as I can
This is insurance for the future. In case they are banned
If you have them already downloaded, they can't be taken away from you
And even if they aren't banned, it will be incredible to look back in 30 years and load up Qwen 3 just to see what life was like back then
If you have a smaller hard drive, I still think this is worth doing to stay independent and free, and having intelligence whenever need it. Download any models you can get your hands on from HuggingFace
It's preserving history and preserving your sovereignty
WHOEVER LEAKED THIS HAS BIGGER BALLS
Someone build a strategy factory that can continuously search for new market edges for roughly $300โ500/month.
The setup is basically a team of AI systems working together:
โ Kimi K3 Swarm scans ~300 markets in parallel
โ Grok bots monitor news, sentiment, positions, and signals
โ GPT-6 Astra researches ideas, writes code, backtests them, and validates the results
โ Telegram turns the whole thing into a plain-English trading desk
And it isnโt just looking for random trades.
The system hunts for things like:
โข Statistical arbitrage
โข Volatility mispricing
โข Factor anomalies
โข Insider buying clusters
The crazy part is the continuous loop.
Find a signal โ form a hypothesis โ build the strategy โ backtest it โ validate it โ keep searching for the next edge.
Itโs not HFT.
Itโs not a billion dollar quant fund.
Itโs something much more interesting:
a laptop scale strategy factory that keeps looking for opportunities while you sleep.
The barrier to building a serious research operation is getting ridiculously low.

Setting up a business has never been easier.
Every year Jason Statham puts out a movie where he plays Jason Statham... He seeks vengeance for some ill action that's none of his business and gets it. Every year I watch it knowing exactly what will happen.
Mutiny done and dusted. See you again next year with the exact same storyline ๐คฃ
