SOME OF THINGS YOU DO THAT JEOPARDIZE YOUR FUTURE

You lay the foundation for your future today. This means there might be certain things you do that might jeopardize your future and put you in big trouble.
Below are 5 things you do that jeopardize your future
1. NOT REVIEWING YOUR EXPENSES
You jeopardize your future when you don’t review your expenses. You should ensure you review your expenses at least once monthly. When you review your expenses periodically, you become more accountable and it also becomes easy for you to notice some bad spending habits.
2. SPENDING MONEY YOU DON’T HAVE
You put yourself in a rat race when you spend money you don’t have. Avoid using loans to buy things you don’t really need as your only get yourself in severe trouble. I advice people to stay away from loans except you are taking the loan for business purposes.
3. GAMBLING
Buying lottery tickets and placing bets are another easy way people jeopardize their future. Gambling might be fruitful now but it’s not a solid financial plan in the long run. Gambling always has a way of finally taking the little money you have and leaving you in huge debts.
4. LIVING ABOVE YOUR MEANS
Spending more than you earn is the fastest way of jeopardizing your future. Avoid living a fake live by being happy with what you have. Living below your means helps you secure your future.
5. NOT SAVING
You are joking with your future if you don’t have savings. It’s necessary you keep money aside each month for savings . Don’t spend money just because you have it. Saving for the rainy day is important as it helps you during emergencies.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Mulolongo is not just a place.

Mulolongo is not just a place. It's a whole syllabus. And deep within its curriculum is a tiny street called Zambarau where meat is sold both day and night. By day, Zambarau is a heaven of nyama. Smoke rises like prayers as meat sizzles on grills. You can find it in stew, dry fry, grilled or even boiled for the toothless. But when darkness announces its arrival, the meat form changes. It’s still meat, yes, but this one is served somewhat raw. Colourful, tender and priced depending on texture, origin, and freshness. The most popular evening meat here is called pig Porko. Everyone in Zambarau street and its tributaries knows pig meat, Porko. It is well supplied, comes in different packages and is available all night till morning. On a certain Friday evening, Katomo walked into Mulolongo feeling like a tycoon. After working for three solid weeks smoothing walls in Kalangaita, the foreman finally remembered him. He was paid a full Ksh 790. Not a coin less. That evening, Kat...
