First of all, let me start by saying that I've been a follower of Wazua since the stockskenya days since late 2006/ early 07. (remember mumias and equity stocks? wacha tu)I have never been one to participate fully on web 2.0 but an avid follower of user generated posts and insights. The time have come for me after being in the states for 7 years, to finally call it quits after "mark-timing" for the past two years. I have visited Kenya 3 times and only twice staying for over a month. I have some capital (3.5m) and about 70K monthly income from two passive investments in Nairobi (single family homes). My fears are; 1) will that income support me as I search for entrepreneurial opportunities, 2) How is the economy in general (apart from the pinch at petro stations)?

If you have your own house on a farm where you can grow your food, Ksh70k should be more than sufficient. Or if you are single.
