Sustenance is ok. But there is one who called demanding for a loan to start a business. She was bitter that whereas I have assisted other younger relas through school, I have never "helped" her. This is a married woman aged 37 who feels entitled to a loan from me.

If you do have, give out but don't squeeze yourself to give out.

some will find me repairing a fence or the outside toilet, sit next to me telling me about his problems he can't even think of kujipa kazi helping me, so what I now do is give the some manual work that needs to be done like clearing the drive way to the house from the road, or prunning the trees and arranging the branches to dry for firewood, only then can i give money based on the current daily wage yani ki-siku

You guys are mean. You happily spend thousands buying single malt whiskys to strangers at pubs but find it hard to give your relatives some petty cash. Someone has even confessed demanding back the 1k he gave his uncle. Isn't this asking for a curse?

True, I agree with you. Kwanza some strange random women are bought for booze and food, paid for uber plus given 2+++ thaos za kujishigilia nayo mpaka next time.

This is a simple cost benefit analysis. An uncle doesn't have an airport yet the strange women have airport.

I have an uncle who would call every time with one story or the other. He would always ask for small amounts that in most cases you would not mind giving out but it became too much.

One day asked for 600, I gave him a 1000 as a soft loan which he gladly took promising to pay back. On the day he had promised to pay I called him and of cause he give me another date, this continued untill he started ignoring my calls. And with that my problem was solved.


This works miraculously. Applied it to a nagging friend, they have never called again to ask for money.
If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.
