Sell things online

This is what has destroyed the online marketplace. Online vending has to be a full time job. Has to be.

Any other way and vendors start to cut corners to fulfill orders if they’re ever fulfilled.

You post an X brand of black earphones with photos lifted from the Amazon, but you send someone else to fulfill the order and they deliver a white Chinese knock-off, and when the client is dissatisfied unawatusi/unawadimiss like it’s their fault.

full time, no sleep, no holidays. Always on the road, no breaks.

As you grow older you get smarter through experience and education.

One thing I learned is that if you are in some type of formal employment, it is easier and smarter to put in more hours and get paid overtime, instead of starting a new business.

If you are an entrepreneur, it is easier to open a new branch or expand the current business than diversify into an entirely new business e.g kama una fast food usifungue butchery/duka ya gas etc.

Doing more of what you already know is the path of least resistance because you already have an edge (experience and expertise).

REASON: It takes 10000 hours to be competent at something. That’s why people hardly succeed in side hustles that are unrelated to their main hustle.

Every new business is like an infant , you just have to be there full time the 1st years , you can’t have ur cake and eat it . You have to decide to take the plunge into entrepreneurship or just stick to employment , otherwise you will just be wasting your money dipping ur toes everytime with some scheme that will leave you broke and frustrated . The only 2 things I can think of you can do and still stay employed :
1: buying land and trying to sell it ( you can wait years trying to sell some plot)
2: Importing a car and selling it with a markup

Be an online pornstar… get home get online on site like onlyfans… ngurumisha nduthi and watch the dallaz stream in.

T bills for short term investments, T bond kama unatafuta retirement plan. you could also invest in a Sacco. Majority have about 10% interest rates on savings and about 17-20% dividend rates on share capital. Quite decent returns for an investment that does not require your time, or skills. Plus your principal is always guaranteed if/when you want to call it quits.

This has been proven to be a myth.
You’ll break your back trying to get to that mark whereas your competency improved thousands of hours past.

But needs some naive unmotivated youth to help later on.

Nunua mining rig za crypto. Una wacha ikimine.

Crypto mining consumes A LOT of energy. The electricity bills alone will kill the project before he even gets started.

Makes a lot of sense. I have this uncle, very entrepreneurial and has a killer instinct when it comes to business. But overall, he barely makes any money as he’s spread too thin; ako na a village petrol station, two general shops, photocopy biz, small scale farming and keeps goats.

Drop shipping?

Good point.
