WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR A LIVING? THIS IS A DECEMBER QUESTION.

 Exactly that time of the year where you question yourself about the journey you decided to take. You should remember all our family wants for us is safety and financial security. Entrepreneurship has nothing to do with that.  This is when you get scared to go home. That's because you don't want to answer alot of questions.  The major question would be. *" What are you now doing for a living:?*  Then how do you answer that. If you know very well that you sold bags the business didn't work out then you went for clothes then you started a chicken dust business which is not yet even profitable yet and a number of small hustle.   At this stage you're a beginner in the field on Entrepreneurship yes a biggies maybe  with 3 years experience.  How do you answer your aunt or uncle at the Christmas party when they ask you what Exactly are you doing for a  living.  To top that up. There will be relatives younger than you who will always be used as ...

WHAT MOTIVATE ME TO WORK

Image
 What motivated me to work harder on myself and develop myself financially is what I saw in schools and hospitals.  Teachers and nurses and some doctors are financially suffering.  After years they live from hand to mouth.  Worse now some are even retiring to get their retirement funds and going back to work after a few years.  If you do everything by the rules of the system. Go to school get a job and get married start a family buy or build a house before you buy a car then have children then take your children to good private schools.  By the age of 40 you will be BROKE.  Two days after payday you will be left with only K2500.00 for the month. Mid month you go to the loan institutions because your credit score would be messed up by then.  Think about it. Current inflation is more than 24.4% this year.  A salary increase mybe every 5years by less than 6% they still going to Tax you.  Mathematically you getting poorer every year.  U...

WHY WOULD YOU PAY A K6000 TO RENT A HOUSE YET YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING CALLED REVENUE GENERATING BUSINESS

 I remember being very stupid.  Worrying about where I'm renting instead of renting in a cheap area and using the extra cash to build a build a business.  Some people are trapped in this thing of maintaining standards. Why would you pay K6000 pm for the apartment instead of getting the apartment for K1500.00 and using the K4500.00 extra cash to build a proper business in your areas. This thing of leaving affordable houses in your area and going to rent  to rent a K6000.00 apartment drive a K5000.00 pm installment and take your kids to a private school while your children have no property to inherit is stupid.   Even if you share one big bedroom for your kids for five years while your building them a proper business nothing is wrong with that. Real comfort comes after suffering it's unfortunate that no one wants to go through the pain majority want it easy. Why seriously why pay such a huge amount for rent while you have no business in your name. Atleast bui...

K50,000 AS BUSINESS CAPITAL FOR BAKERY

 This morning I had a business talk on zoom with big businessmen and women. What I have learnt from them is that team up with others and contribute money to start a business is key in some successful businesses and it has helped many people grow in finance. Now let me share with you this business which can only cost you around k55,000 to start in zambia or in your country.   Let's say you  K38000 to set up your own bakery and bake your own bread, pies, rolls etc. You can set this up at your garage or in a mobile container even your own house or rent a house that's why I have put up a k50,000. You can supply bread to boarding schools, restaurants, hotels and Burundi shops.  Equipment that can bake 600 loafs a day costs less than K50,000,00 If you can supply a hospital, hotel, school or a firm with the 600 loafs at K10 per unit. You will be making a Turnover of K6000 a day. This could work for someone who has been retrenched and needs a stable income or someone looking...

$1.4 BILLION SUPPORT AWAITING IMF BOARD RATIFICATION.

 $1.4 BILLION SUPPORT AWAITING IMF BOARD RATIFICATION This is a good step in the positi ve direction but people should know exactly what is about to happen as the 2022 budget starts taking shape.  We are here today because debt is choking our economy. What that means is that your salary is K10,000 but ABSA is cutting K7,000 from your salary. You remain with K3000 to pay for your children's school and education. Your salary minus loan deductions can allow you to rent a K3500 house and still remain with enough to run your home but you cannot because the DEBT IS CHOCKING you. This is where we are today as a country, we are being chocked by debt and if we continue without a bailout then we will go from bad to worse.  To move forward, we need to increase the net amount needed to run the economy and that is where the IMF comes in by giving you support of K5000 per month to push your net income from K3000 to K8000. Now lets be frank and open with each other here and let us not s...

TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT BUT WHY AFRICA STILL REMAIN POOR

Image
  To set the record straight ° Africa area = 30,37 million km2 ° China area = 9,6 million km2 ° US area = 9,8 million km2 ° Europe area = 10,18 million km2 Africa is bigger than all of Europe, China and the United States of America together. But on most world maps, Africa is represented in downsize. Some say this is racially motivated. Others say it’s impossible to accurately represent the size of continents and countries on a map. Whatever the theory, facts remain facts: Africa is huge, rich and blossoming. Why does it matter to state facts? Because narratives shape perceptions and perceptions drive action. Our continent is not just the cradle of humanity, it is its future. Greetings to you all and let's keep safe 🙏.
