@josey,

You have not started yet but would you want to start?

@seeker,

You can therefore count yourself extrablessed. I have not heard of that. The only thing I know is scam in internet.

@ghettomafia,
Where are you? We are waiting.

@all
Lets use this forum to suggest ways of raising startup capital. I know very many ambitious Kenyans are stuck. Trying but never make it.
Over the weekend,I talked to those guys I mentioned introducing this thread. When I seek a solution from them,all of them said; akili ni nywele na kila mtu ana zake. I mean,they are mean even to share the story or offer encouragement! I will not blame them,maybe they are starting to actualize and feeling guilty to some extent.
Those guys who have made it,share your experiences.
I have googled and realised there are some organisations (including our very own,esther passaris) that support a noble idea that is well documented. Problem is conditions stated can only be met if you have already running something.

It doesn't hurt to know more than you have

@samsa.

Yes i would want to start. 200k capital.


Better put your money where your mouth is...

@realshaft,
what happened to eskay?
Where are their offices?
I trust these fellas can rescue some of us.

It doesn't hurt to know more than you have

I also remember there was ESKAY.
Where are they? Their mission?
ESKAY members,please talk.

does the guy work for...

Nairobi Water and Sewage.....???

I'm the real Massey F.....shut your mouth

@samsa,
I think I have something to contribute in this.
Like someone has said in the thread,you cannot become prosperous by starting big but by growing big.
I never believe in geniouses. I however believe in improvements. Improve what you are doing today for a better tomorrow.
If you start big,you will eventually come down. But if you start small,you will eventually grow. I watched citizen news on Sunday and I realised Paul Wanderi Ndung'u owns a Billion in todays NSE. If you ask him,he did not start by buying a million. Maybe a 10k or below worth of shares. He continued growing.
If you are not saving today,start saving. Tomorrow you will have something you didnot have today. Tomorrow increase your savings or diversify. Whatever you start to do,do it with all your minds and heart and energy. You will surely be big one day.
I have been to Rift valley the better part of my career until pev broke last year. I tell you,the prosperous people are innovative,hardworking and smart. If you are the type that sits down to think you have nothing,you wil never get. But if you work with the little you have,then one day,you wil testify of how you have moved from lower levels to great heights.

Start small!

TRS and Kishtash


ESkay is still alive and well.Members very committed.The company is still taking small but important steps towards being a great company.

All I can say is that a lot is happening concerning this company behind the scenes.

Hope you wont have to shout at the roof tops now :)

Its time to wake up young people -Lets invest

From my savings... Then borrowed from my Mother... Bless her...

Greedy when others are fearful,Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase WB

reiner,,i have different storos ..za unga 'bout that guy,,nway nobody knows how tru

face your fears live your dreams

@reiner;

Very true.

I have heard many silly stories also about Thuo and his Citi Hoppa company...how he stole money fro KBS [Yet the truth is that he was fired because he refused to go along with the board's plan to milk the company...they eventually replaced him with Mukhabana whom Thuo had fired for incompetence] and also how he is just a front for Michuki [a version propagated by Mapolomoko Madd,aka,Paul Kelemba,aka,Maddo.....complete hogwash with no basis!!]

Just BTW; Thuo sold his house in order to pay back the housing loan to KBS. The profit made after the sale was invested in four busses partly financed by CMC.....the rest is history....
