Coming from a student who has tried multiple ways to make money, I'm gonna say that sometimes people speak from a point of privilege. Getting a job is one thing in this country. Its hard. And that's how life is kwa ground. So in as much as we are grinding hard looking for the bag, we gotta admit that having multiple incomes is a blessing in it's own. So excuse those who can barely save money monthly for emergency funds and all let alone even afford a decent life. However, all things considered, living below you means is the trick. And, budget to the very last penny.

[@rosynyanjom7221]

I know girl, I totally feel you. I guess for our case, starting out is what’s painful. We search so hard until we begin to think that either we are searching wrong or the universe is not on our side. In this world you need money to make money. I guess once God opens a door, then you can build from there…but hearing the words ‘make more money’ is hard when you have nothing a all.

How to clean a dispenser? Boil water wait to cool to Luke warm, them mix with white vinegar and baking soda. Then pour the liquid at the top, where the dispenser nuzzle goes in, open both the hot water and cold water and let run. then have some seat for like sometime. I leave it over night and flush like like 3 kettles of plain water. Hopefully this makes sense

[@kihembodoreen7368]

The part where Ivy says, to make money, you have to be vulnerable.. You have to humble yourself.. shameless even.. I agree.. Lose that shame, lose that pride.. That's how we are making it through the recession..

[@Buyeke]

What Ivy said... I read somewhere; you can't save or budget you way out of poverty. Just make more money. That's the only solution TBH

[@jasminekenya2949]

Ivy hit it spot on, you have to be very intentional. Am literally a manager during the week and a hawker on the weekends. I humble myself that much. The money I make during the weekend pushes me the whole week. Praying for wisdom for more abumdandance and biashara prowess

[@terihiri2739]

I could listen to Jules all day😅

[@mambiashu7080]

What Ivy is saying is correct. There is a glass ceiling to how much you can cut back from your budget but there is no glass ceiling to focusing on making more money AFTER you have done all the trimmings. I personally don't like the advice to not buy the $2 coffee. How much of a difference does it really make? If that coffee is connected to my joy and is what sets me in a good mood so I can go out and hustle and make more money then please buy the coffee and go make more money. I have always had 2-3 streams of income and because of that when one ends...finances becomes an inconvenience NOT an emergency because I still have 1 -2 streams to lean on while I sort out something new.

[@ruthkabata7184]

Before you beat yourself down because you don't have the "money making mentality", ask yourself if you can afford baby stuff worth 80k so you can resell at 50k, or if you can afford more than enough clothes that you can resell. Or do you just have enough clothes for a week or two that you got from the streets. Do you have anything around the house that you can sell, or can you even afford everything that you need, including food? Do you have a single stream of income that can help you survive leave alone multiple streams? If you do, is it enough to save, leave alone start a business or something? Or do you get broke on 20th of every month. Not because you're living above your means but because it's simply not enough. You could go as low as you can but still not have enough. My point is, most people who hold the same idea talk from a point of privilege. Having people you can call to give you a job is already a privilege many don't have. Try calling someone today and see if you can get a job that easily with your little name😅In fact, people with such privileges are sometimes the reason people without cannot get the opportunities. Because if you can make a call and get the job, what about the person who applied for the same job but can't call anyone for the favor? Don't beat yourself down because you don't have such privileges. Do your best wherever you are. Just try to survive, it's the least you can do. Your mentality isn't putting you in that position. Be kind to yourself.

[@irenegalgalo]

THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! You have spoken out my exact thoughts so well! This world is not as black and white as this video seems to communicate. I agree we need to find multiple sources of income but if you cannot just survive with what you have. You are doing the best you can! No one in this world wishes to be poor surely!

[@evewaithaka]

Thank you for sharing this. It is easy to sit in your house with the luxury of picking brands to save money but for some people they are struggling to even afford food. Life is not the same for everyone and it is not always about a mindset. So many factors come into play. As you said, let us be kind to ourselves and allow ourselves grace for whatever season we find ourselves in.

This topic is soooo timely. Can we have part 2, where Ivy leads a sub topic for- How to make more money?

[@monicakay8973]

I really love how Ivy is not focused on small small things like nyanya. It seems she's like "You guys haven't been cutting costs all this time?" The women in development movement was based on this way of thinking, for women to grow they can't be focused on welfare issues like food etc. The focus is making more money. You can cut costs all you want but if you make the same amount imagine it won't make a difference as such. In my house, since Covid started we have been: 1. Multiple income streams. Yes, have a main job and other tu side jobs. 2. Milk tea kila siku where?? We have days for porridge, milk and even turungi especially with yams as escort. 3. Like Lornzie I go to the office once a week. I run errands on specific days to save on fuel.

[@b.3845]

Sawa girl boss.

[@Buyeke]

Nice! This is such a good plan, we also do it like this in my household. Just like my original comment before seeing yours; you can't budget or save your way out of poverty, the only way is to make more money!

[@ruthiminza15]

This is spot on. I'm on the same wavelength. Focus on broadening your sources of income.

[@ruthiminza15]

This could be a thorn and cause irritation to many people but I see Ivy leaving this group in the near future bc she is growing at a rapid healthy rate that she's outgrowing most things others are talking about that's why she talks less these days and it is acceptable to outgrow every thought you once had and space you were. When it happens don't take it personally it's the way of life. It also doesn't mean she will severe these ties but the interactions will be minimal.

[@oparoc]

I took a hybrid approach - make more money and cut down costs. I moved out of Nairobi to live rent-free upcountry. I planted a kitchen garden and began a poultry and hibiscus tea side hustle.

Finally! Someone's talking about the elephant in the room. Let's also talk about the pressure that comes with being an influencer and having to make tough financial decisions before you get yourself in debt to fund that lifestyle. Personally, I moved houses, (from which I now saves me 13k monthly).. do homeschooling for my LO, sold some stuff.. (very hard to let go but you have to), let go of my nanny to get on my feet faster. I did. Now nesting better with emergency fund and stuff. Had a 6 month plan, hopefully will be ready to take my LO back to school in January. The sooner we accept that this economic crisis will be with us for a while... The better.. let's adjust early.

I think she very much lives in Kenya and is representing a mindset shift that needs to happen. The more I’ve switched to “there is money to be made and I will make it by improving myself” the more money I’ve made. And it is also in the most abstract ways. The number of skills you can learn on the internet and go into consulting is mind blowing. Maybe really try what she’s saying before you knock it, might work out for you too 😊

Ivy attitude is inspiring cause she never wallows in misery but at times you have to be realistic. She probably has opportunities all of us don't but telling people to just make more money is too simple and unrealistic

[@b.3845]

A lot of these “girl bosses” are lowkey elitists and their message is very exclusive to “those who have”. Ivy, Caroline mutoko, Ntalami…their girl boss feminism and other agendas isn’t for the kawaida mwananchi, y’all just don’t get it. The issue is that they’re not clear on the exact demographic that their messaging is for , and that makes a large group of their audience constantly feel isolated. Just pick and choose what works for you. Ivy reminds me of Kim Kardashian and other wealthy girl bosses from the western world. Their “advice & solutions” are always very dismissive to the unique struggles of ordinary women with extra challenges. “Just get up your a*s and work. It’s that simple” 😂

[@ken4722]

@@b.3845 totally get what you are saying but I feel like she doesn't go into it trying to hurt anyone. It's just that her money making mindset isn't for everyone especially in a third world economy where getting an opportunity to even make basic income is a huge privilege to the majority. Maybe she could try and understand other people's situations more cause she mostly shares from a privilege bubble

[@VioletsInspirations]

@@b.3845 You may have a point but you don't have to be so mean and even label people as feminists. There is something called a 'tribe' which is a space where you connect at higher levels and feel most comfortable with some people. If Over 25 or Ivy is not your cup, there are millions of KZbin channels that people can follow. Secondly, they say the 21st Century illiterate is not the person who cannot read and write but the one who is unwilling to learn, unlearn and relearn. How do you learn when you keep admonishing the same people who are trying to teach you?If they are not your cup of tea or tribe, just find one where you fit. With all fairness, live and let live.

[@maureenwakoli2201]

@@VioletsInspirationsI totally agree with your sentiments. Most people prefer to hold on to their traumas as opposed to breaking them off and daring to be different, to be more, to want more.. because it's the easier option. Mindset change is a process. The willingness to look at life through another person's lens is the secret to changing one's reality. And I say this as someone who's still on this journey. Finally, let's agree that good advise/ information is good regardless of who offers it. May we dare greatly.

Hey, thank you for sharing these tips, a friend of mine was recently telling me about a groceries group she is a part of (Like a savings group but for shopping0. How it works is they all save money as a group and buy in bulk most of their essentials from wholesalers and distribute them among themselves. It saves them a lot of money because obviously supermarkets as retailers are a bit more expensive. I thought it was a great tip to survive the economy because whewwwww what are these prices!

I cut my cost of gas and electricity by using my electric pressure cooker to cook foods that require boiling. Even sweet potatoes! For cabbage, I use the steam option for 3 minutes then release the steam immediately to avoid overcooking and ending up with soggy cabbage. I then drain the water and mix the veges with sauteed onions.

[@jepkoechkendagor9723]

While finding ways of making more is a plausible perspective, we have to agree that majority of Kenyans cannot even afford to survive on their own salaries which is a huge problem. Making more money calls for a stable mental health, and time to even look for these opportunities which many do not have. What we should be asking ourselves is why is the common mwananchi continuously suffering and having to take the brunt for rising costs when the top 1% continue to rake in the money? Why is it that there are policies to aid the rich to cut back on costs and taxes while there are almost none to help the common mwananchi? The rising cost of living and inflation and how it disproportionately affects the majority is a case of the failure of economic systems upheld by our governments. Therefore, the conversation should focus on how to repeal and reform these systems instead of putting the load on individuals - asking individuals to find ways of surviving the rising costs - when the problem is bigger than individuals. We have governments to create solutions for all Kenyans but somehow, a majority, who work hard day and night with nothing to show for it are not considered to be worthy.

Have you considered community buying.

For no 1, you rinse and pat dry with tissue, for no 2, you wipe them rinse n pat dry with tissue… that’s how my mom taught me, but nowadays I use a hand towel (a specific one for just that area) to pat dry it’s just my preference . Water just makes it cleaner Hope that helps
