Being an old time Wazua member I was familiar with most of what they have taught for the last 2 days. We all seem to know what to do to make money or save.....problem is TECHNIQUE.
They teach you simple/everyday ways in which you can save and use the saved amount to invest in compounding revenue streams.Most of us even in Wazua are waiting for that day when you will get 500K or 1M or 2M to invest in your dream project.
Anyway, I will update as I get closer to week 11. I also noticed that 80% of my class are ladies/women, I am not sure why. Today is May 20th Week 15 Uli-repeat  , Uliacha ama bado updates zaja ? 80% of class were ladies.... Haha been busy sorry.Having completed,I'd say the course does not offer anything new if you are a serious member of Wazua who follows every post. However,the personal finance classes were awesome.We all know we should save...they show you how!Thats the unit I mostly benefited from.Of course I made a few business contacts and also became friends with one of the ladies. For 33k....lets just say Ive spent 33k in other useless ways.Give it a try. Formally employed people often live their employers' dream & forget about their own.

Has anyone attended the Personal Financial Management Course offered by Centonomy?
I bumped into some recorded video testimonies of some guys who had attended the course.
The total cost for the 11 weeks course is Kes 33,750 (inclusive of 16% Vat) for the 11 modules plus a registration and booking fee of Kes 1,500.
If you have attended the course , kindly advice if one gets value for money.Your insights will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Wa-home
I have but mine was a 3 days crush programme. The course is good in my view.It opens up your eyes and some reality dawns on you. My take away from the course. 1.Start saving from you first day in employment or business- Discipline2.There are expenses we can do away with...eg.lunch (carry your lunch and save the 200/=.That is 72k in a year enough to buy a plot at Kamulu which will appreciate to 200k in the next year and 400k in another year.That is wealth creation- Planning and discipline3.Motor vehicles are a cost and they help you cruiz to poverty.(Forget the status and convinience. The costs are too high and when things are thick nobody even remembers that status and reputation you were trying to keep).This is not to say dont buy a car but give a deep thought to what you are buying.A vitz Vs a Blue Subru Outback. (Think initial purchase cost,insurance,fuel,service and resale)- Planning4.Ladies...your hair costs are enough to take you through a degree programme at THE parallel programme. Wachana na hizo weaves.- Discipline5.Invest whatever extra coin you have it will help you in future.- Discipline6.Plan for your expenses.- Planning7.Impulse buying will ruin you, for you more often than not buy things you dont need.What is called stuff.- Planning and disciplineAnd many more- Buy Konyagi instead of Jameson,pay for sex instead of marriage, adopt kids instead of marriage, eat roasted maize and arrow roots instead of roasted ribs,socialize with real people instead of virtual people and save on bundles, eat boiled eggs instead of boiled meatThat was 3 years ago and I can say I am a better financial manager. If you do not know how to plan, you are planning for poverty,if you aren't disciplined with your finances you will be disciplined in poverty  our goals are best achieved indirectly
