By all means if you can build, build. Be modest. Start small then accelerate as you go.  Pointer, look for a
Good and trustworthy hardware, get a solid store keeper then no nonsense foreman and you will be happy.
Try to limit relatives as much as you can. More importantly engage professionals. Break down your construction into
Phase foundation, walling, roofing, plastering, electricals,plumbers, finishing. In three categories cheap, moderate or high end. Never choose cheap it's expensive. Ol  USA is no country for retiree or old folks. Plan yourself accordingly

I'm not going to build in a rural or urban city for me to relocate there in my old age. Ltc insurance is $1,000 a year and I can live in a community of millionaires. Yaani I will have a cna from Africa will a degree, a Philipino nurse and therapy daily..why would I trade this for the village life?

Kenya Discussion / If you want a really bully that would chase dynasties out of kenya

Then Miguna Miguna would your candidate. This is a man that and operates on high principles. Uncomprising integrity. A brilliant son that kenya has ever produces. He is a few of Moi University of Nairobi detainees that took moi persecution and used it to better himself and never forgot the quest of making Kenya great. If you like Wafula Buke then Miguna is the pragmatic Wafula. MIGUNA lives his life and has kept h8s family intact despite turmoil. He doesn't drink. While as an advisor to Prime Minister raila miguna would work 14 hours a day. He was suprised at the largest in this office. He couldn't understand why he need safaricom phone credit of 8k daily. He saw the rot and exposed it. When raila tried to betray millions that had been victimized by kibaki tribalism he called raila put. When raila made the compromise in naivasha to sell out the original devolution that was for a federal system Miguna fought to keep Dr Mbai's devolution intact but raila had to compromise because of Kikuyu tribal chauvinism of Kibaki govt.


Miguna would jail ruto, he would dismantle kenyatta empire and cripple moi dynasty. He would clean the public service .he is bully that kenya needs

The oil era is not over yet, but the demand will reduce drastically. The oil producers that can extract oil cheaply will survive. Uganda's oil should focus on local market and the neighbouring countries. Shipping refined oil to countries like China will soon not be worht it. Over 50% of new cars sold in China are electric. In Europe still low by around 20%, but the trend is pointing upward.

Kenyans new keeping with Joneses is building palatial homes in rural areas. The funny thing is that as soon as the building is done none of them relocates to kwiinya permanently. This building is done using 401k funds and debt. So the person building must continue working to sustain the lifestyle they want to lead. What a waste of money. Nigerian Kids raised abroad are really getting vocal about their parents taking family resources and diverting them to build these white elephants in a place they haven't lived in decades.

Anyway kila nyani na starehe yake. There is no way i would invest $100k to build a house in kenya. Why leave a developed nation to go pretend to be super rich in a sea of poverty. There is one Luo guy that live deep in rural nyanza that is the biggest advocate of this
 He is a good marketer of his contracting business
 The man in his 50s has children that are toddlers. So you wonder why his life is upside-down. I like watching his channel and seeing the fallacy of the myth he is selling

My Oldman had built a macmansion as a Youngman bought land and thought he would the next lord Dalmere..the problem is that he had invested this in very remote rural kiambu and he spent his life regretting that decision. If that house had been built in muthaiga or anywhere in nairobi then it would have been very useful to him.

Don't use 1970s template in 2026. Those type of palatial homes need a person making over 3 million shillings a month to make any sense. If you want relocate build a modest house that won't take all your resource

A fool and its money will be separated

It seems it is hard to develop new oil discoveries. Uganda oil mining keeps on getting delayed due to market issues. It was supposed to start in 2025 never happened. Our measly low quality oil in turkana is not economically feasible..even Saudi Arabia is preparing for post oil. Usa is supposed to be getting rid of gas car engines manufacturing by 2040. Electric cars will be the norm soon.

Seems kenya will continue just being a Mlungu national park. You all need to train your kids to be be good morons to dance for Mlungus
