There was a story today in the DN pg.16 about the attempted robbery at barclays nakuru branch on monday. Police gunned down all the robbers after a tip off. The branch had kes.100 mn at the time. Now here is the juicy part;

one of the robbers had a bank deposit slip for kes.11.5mn and chqs worth hundreds of thousands. This is because he is one of the leading businessmen in karatina town. He is worth over 30 million. Assuming that its not a case of police shooting the wrong guy, can one rich wazuan answer a very simple question; just how much money is enough ?

The Parable of the Rich Fool, therein lies your answer: -

Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?” Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”

And he told them this parable: “The ground of a my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.” “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’
“This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God.”
Eagles don't flock, you have to find them one at a time.

You are assuming too much in this post.

1. That there was an actual tipoff
2. That ALL were robbers
3. That the man was very rich.
4. It was not a mistake

Don't start being all moral here when you don't have ALL the facts.

For me sad if he was an actual thief, very sad if it was a mistake. One way or the other, I have no evidence to make a decision one way or the other.
Jose: If I make it through this thug life, I'll see you one day. The Lord is the only way to stop the hurt.
