Go out to eat, gas your car, and the money is gone.

inflation at 15% annually so this means purchasing power is depreciating at the same rate. even at 7% and incomes staying flat or only moving up a bit. You need to grow income in Kenya at 10% just to keep up with rising prices

You can't attract investors at this rate.
