Swapped my 1.3 litre car for a 2.2 litre monster in November last year. Bad decision. Problem is I'm too proud to go back. I have learnt to use matatus where possible.

@SimonKabs

Tell your guys to use polythene instead of those CDs that goes for Ksh 150 there u save more than Ksh 149.50. Do a quick math; you go 6 rounds per nite including morning glory those are two packets costing Ksh 300. so per month will cost something like Ksh 9,000

He he he he he he he he he he he he

Am still kidding.

If a new person read the thread about what sk'ers do for a living and then read this thread they'd be totally confused.

@simonkabz: Wewe ni wazimu.

@Pondi & Mlefu: You guys crack me up. I'd like to meet you!

Walk to work. South B to Tao - 40 min. Nairobi west to upperhill - 30min. You save fuel possibly 300/- per day and Gym 4k p.m. Total saving 11,500/-.

With that you can take a coop loan of 450k invest it in Access Kenya (or whatever you fancy) and be a millionaire by the time you clear the loan using the the amount you saved by walking on weekdays!!

Weekend you can continue to do your mwenjoyo.

for those not yet married and in relationships,move in with your partner (girlfriend or boyfi) and cost share. two is better than one.

implementation will be the only problem. and then you have palepale as you wish.

-Never throw a round of beer when hanging out with your buddies; esp on Fridays...instead drink slowly and pay exactly what you've consumed; as they get drunk,they will start buying rounds.

-Yeah; yeah senator keg will cost you a maximum of 100 bob per seating; that's one beer at the cheapest joint in tao. NB: If you take too much,Keg may affect your performance when you meet your other half in bed. Solution: put in some instant coffee in the last one or two mugs..ave seen this happen esp in Zimmermann. It also clears that smell.

-Eat Mutura (20bob) and supu (5bob) for your supper.

-If you live in Kangemi/Kinooo/Uthiru; walk from tao to Museum Hill and get a ma3 at 10bob less the usual fare.

-If you have to drink in tao; pop in Reke Marie,Dot or some other joint in downtown and have enough of beer at RRP before venturing akina Jazz,Verandah,Club Sound,ET AL


-Reduce the number of times/weekends your girl friend visits your diggs. Also avoid offering to drop her when she leaves..why spend 300bob on fuel while she could take a ma3 at 20bob.

-If you own a car; avoid giving a lift (esp to huge dudes) when coming to work; your car consumes more fuel as the weight increases; not forgetting the shocks..NB: these dudes will just say thank you and will not even share with you what they've saved on fare. Also obey traffic rules to avoid giving bribes/fines to police/courts.

-If your company pays over time; do not feell guilty to inflate the number of extra hours you have put in each month.

-When on leave,avoid shaggs as much as possible and if you have to go there spend less than 24 hrs .. esp if you are one of the few from your village who live/work in nairobi.

-Avoid situations which may impregnate your chick. Use a condom even if she say the days are fine..
