As in being on the brink of becoming destitute. Started a business, made some glaring mistakes, pumped in all my savings, and just as the business was starting to trickle in some droplets of income, i had to close shop because i couldn't afford the costs. My biggest mistake was taking someone else's advise on location that was expensive rentwise.

had several cars for hire. one day I hired to the wrong person who turned out to be a thug. huge losses in trying to convince cops that I was not an accomplice. Closed that biashara very fast.

Opened a boutique and hair care shop through remote management-On the day I came to do stock taking, I couldn't manage to get an erection for 3 months due to stress.

Closed the place, carried the remaining stock to shags and distributed it to villages

Where are the matatu stories...they seem very widespread in bars and the streets?

I recall on many a nights waking up with a cold sweat. There is nothing as horrifying as knowing you're heading downwards at lightning speed!

But we survived, and lived to tell the tale.
