John Gachora ...🧵🧵

Every man has his own modus operandi.

For Gachora, he seems to be the man that audaciously believes himself into greatness!

On his LinkedIn profile, he states " I have differentiated myself by starting with the end in mind placed against a strong belief that I can model anything.”

Armed with a Degree and a Masters in Electrical Engineering, one would think Gachora would be busy modeling signal processes, network traffic, and data transmission.

And how wrong can one be!Image
Surprisingly , the man is busy ‘modeling’ in the financial services industry, sitting as Group MD of a leading Tier 1 bank and even more surprisingly, as the chairman of the banks’ lobby, @KenyaBankers .... Image
He went to Alliance. 😉

“He was at the top of his class for the five years he was in school,”
~ Mr. Khaemba, former Principal of Alliance High School

In form five, John would get a once in a lifetime opportunity to go to America on an exchange program. His school had a program with an American school, and he was chosen based on his academic performance and the teacher's view that if he did not go on this trip, he would never have the opportunity again in his life.....Image

How to Break Free of Debt:

It's hard to focus on growing wealth when you're struggling to keep up with loan payments.

Loan payments take a significant chunk of your income.

This leaves less money available for saving and investing, the cornerstones of wealth building.
To alleviate this burden and work towards debt repayment, you can use Avalanche or Snowball debt repayment strategies. Image
Avalanche method attacks high interest debt first. It aims to reduce the overall interest you pay and get you out of debt more efficiently.

You may have heard the old proverb, “Shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations.”

In Japan, the expression goes, “Rice paddies to rice paddies in three generations.”

The Scottish say “The father buys, the son builds, the grandchild sells, and his son begs.”

In China, “Wealth never survives three generations.”
>>
Imagine you work so hard to build long lasting wealth by dedicating yourself to saving money with a long term approach to investing, only for your third generation to burst your bubble!

Or a man working hard to buy a piece of land, his son building a successful business on that land, but then the grandchild, instead of taking care of the business, sells it off without thinking about the hard work put in!
>>
The three-generation cycle, otherwise known as Generation Curse or Cycle of Wealth, is a phenomenon where wealth and success accumulated by one generation are lost or squandered by the third generation.
