I disagree. I think he's done the correct thing. Some battles are simply not worth fighting, especially in social media. It's a battle that you will never win.

Just because he's being discussed in Wazua doesn't mean he opens a wazua handle and defend himself. Many media houses have tried to get hold of him. Why hide??? If he explains himself on any major media house , the positive feedback will trickle down to all the social sites!

guys care because he is a prominent VC who seems to have lied about having a lot of money. A VC is someone who smartly allocates a lot of money to various businesses. Once it comes out that you don't have a lot of money to give, then you are useless in that career. This probably aggravates the entreprenurial community since hot air VCs are a big problem for them.

There is also an element of shock because he had come across as quite the trustworthy guy.

Methinks this fellow is one of those who become millionaires by 'motivating' you to become one. Anyhoo, time will tell.

Most people who write books with titles like "How to be a millionaire" became millionaires by selling those books!!!

There is a fellow in Kenya who charges like a million bob for an "Annual Mentorship bla bla bla Program". It is "three semesters". A "semester" is one week - 5 days - at some hotel like Holiday inn. You get lunch, tea and lots of mineral water. Accommodation ni juu yako if you are from out of town. And of course the fellow pays for the conference room. 15 days, One Milli gone! And what is the fellow's expertise? Running such 'programs' in various countries around the world. It is not like you are paying to get educated by some Warren Buffet, Carlos Slim etc. Fellows who have been there done that!

Being "nice feĺlows", they invited me for a two day "trial period". Only that I had to pay 16k for the "trial". Of course they never saw me nor my 16k!!!

If I was a big shot investor (A billion shilling plus in stocks) I would for example pay for the annual Warren Buffet lunch which would cost me in excess of a 100 milli because what I would learn during the lunch had the potential to earn me billions. But paying even 10k to a fellow who hasn't practiced what he is preaching!!?? Hiyo asahau!!!

A lot of the high-flying "young rich" fellows are running their expensive lifestyle on family fortunes. Nothing wrong with that except that it gives the wrong impression about how to grow a business.

Some of the wealthiest [not richest] fellows in this country are to be found living very quiet lives somewhere between Kirinyaga road and River road.... and the "up-coming" wealthy are running businesses somewhere between River road and Tom Mboya street.

After that, the farher you go west of Moi avenue, the more fakes you find driving the mother's Range Rovers and BMW X5s...mixing with drug peddlers and tender-prenuers.

Very true, I know a printer who is in the dodgiest of buildings along River Road but that man is extremely wealthy. He's content with what he has and has no plans to move to a "better" location.
