IS moving out overrated? (Kujikalisha as a man)

How old were you when you moved out of your mamas kitchen?
Why do Kenyans kick their young boys at a young age without helping the kick start their lives?

Wee ni kifaranga isha pigwa (Wi njui huure)

After I cleared form four.
After exam kuisha nilifika home mzee akaniambia " ujue kesho ni wewe utajua ni nini tutakula"
Ilibidi nijitoe.

Yes, it’s highly overrated. I moved out at 27 after sorting myself out financially and I can say I have turned out much better off.

swali zengine hazihitaji answers. unataka kuenjoy life bila kusweat wewe. ambia wazazi wako wakununulie nyumba ama wakulipie rent ya mwaka moja, inaruhusiwa

It depends. There is no fixed answer since everybody doesn’t come from the same background.

Most rich kids live at their mother’s homes. When it’s time to move out or get married, mzazi ananunua apartment na anamfanyia mpaka connection ya job.

But if you come from a humble background, unajitoa home mapema unaenda kutafuta opportunities. Kama wewe ni mjanja, after 5 years utakuwa umefika mbali sana.

Immediately I completed college, didn’t have a job, had only 2k in my pocket to pay for transport to the next destination. Two months down the line I had been initiated to manhood, never looked back. I urge fellow men to follow suit; don’t be a burden no matter how unfortunate you are.

Immediately after doing form four. Ata fees ya college wengine tunajilipia. And like @smokin_gun has pointed out, you should be fine afyer 5 years. Mimi nilianzia kwa mhindi, am.told I looked twice as old whem working with the guy

no wonder unakuanga mjinga sana . sasa kuishi kayole na kupanda forward travellers ndio being sorted financially?

Why can’t we live like mhindi and some Somalis, wanasupport each other hadi msee anakua able to support himself. Naonanga people who moved out wakirudi kwao after 5+ years kuanza new life nashangaa sana.

I moved out as soon as I joined college. It hasn’t been easy but the lessons, hurdles, losses, winnings are all worth it. You may not be where you want to be or your peers are, but one day at a time is all we do.

Kicked out at 22 though nilipewa basic household items.

Poorer urban background stats show the earlier one will move out.

@tall mnyama everywhere moved out last year…Wacha akuambie how old he was .

This sounds good in principle but kwa ground stori ni tofauti. Kusaidiana inafaa ikuwe based on co-dependency. Unfortunately a good number of people who are saidiwad don’t want to lift a finger in terms of contributing time or effort to complement the person helping them. A lot of parents who insist mtoto amove out is because ameona tabia yenye anajua asipotoa mtoto nje hatarekebisha. Most relatives who don’t like hosting family have had a bad experience that made them swear off that kind of arrangement. Kuna wale wazuri, anakaa ugenini with specific timeline na heshima kwa host. Although kuna hosts pia hukuwa na ushetani. You save yourself a lot of sleepless nights by seeking your independence mapema. It maybe hard at the beginning but the rewards are worth it.

:D:D:D… weuh! Mzae wako ni ngati!

After college, na nkatumia ndugu mdogo

Mini nilianza kubuy unga nyumbani kitambo, after class 8. Nilikua nakanua ngombe pale Gachie

At 21, I was already in campus paying my own fees , independent and hustling mainly in dollars…being tall was an added advantage watu walikuwa wananiheshimu…

tall mnyambo everywhere bado anajisugua na sabuni ya mathe kwa bafu…where is the efidens alihama ?
