File this one under "impressed"

Jameni, when will the mwanafunzi study if you are advising him to run a business 400km away? Let him concentrate on his studies. A good education is the best investment.

Or under "stolen idea". That's on a light note.
My advice to the student. Give it your all. You can't learn swimming without jumping right in.
One thing though. Please please don't let your colleagues see you like that guy who only cares about money. Trust me you don't want to mess with the network of friends you made at campus. Soon you will be out of college and you can't imagine how powerful and influential some of your colleagues will become.
Here is one example from me. Am visiting my hometown and I decide to drop by one of the best hotels. Who do I see seated around some ViPs ? My old buddy from college. He is a serious tenderpreneur. Wasn't sure he would recognise me but he did. After a few minutes he holds my hands and introduces me to the VIPs including my MP.
I leave them and go back to my table. My MP walks over and wants my business card. Startled, I text the guy and ask him what he told my MP. He walks over, and informs me, while still laughing, that he had warned my MP, that am soo loaded, if I wanted his seat I would take it right away. Of course I can't even afford an MCA campaign. But now mhesh calls me twice per week.

True. Everyone starts somewhere.
Good idea you have. I agree with Mahegoat, trust no one. Run what you can under your direct supervision. Once people learn of your idea, they will copy it in other campuses and if you are not there to supervise in your other 'branches', you will only get frustrated.
Get a degree under your belt; it is always good to have an educational foundation that you can fall back on.

This is the time to unleash your maximum academic potential without any distractions. Do the best you can academically. And you will have all the time to engage in any business you so wish after graduation. There is a time for everything. A time to study, a time to trade.
As someone said up there, those who are always hustling in campus on side business mostly end up hustling after campo since their grades suffer.

Thanks ya'll for the good advice.
On the other side,my course is more of a business course than technology as it states.
All my lectures are into the idea of an entrepreneur spirit. One actually requires us to have a business running by our third year,furthermore,this is a HR course hence you'd really know how much i'll be earning after graduation versus running an own entity.
Also,on distance and location,Moi is kind of very far,that's why I mentioned only Central based universities for convenience.
And a question, does really everyone who hustles end up as a hustler?
I have been on how I earned my first million section on wazua,and I've seen most people really started at this stage somewhere in campus.

Good morning Tiger, how is business?
You need three girlfriends.
Correction, your business needs two girlfriends and your academics needs one too.
Girlfriend 1, call her Beyoncé, will be your Business Unit One Accountant. She will also be your Business Unit Two Auditor.
Girlfriend 2, call her Shakira, will be your Business Unit Two Accountant. She will also be your Business One Auditor.
Both these girls will be students in your campus but both should be pursuing a bachelorās degree in commerce with accounting options.
Girlfriend 3, call her Rihanna, will be a colleague student in your class. She will be a āswotā. She will make sure you study, pass your examinations, and get your degree. She will make sure you attend class, take your notes, and sit your continuous assessment tests. You will study together and keep up with her. She will be your partner in your academics.
As part of your relationships, you will prepare each business unitās accounts, probably in an Excel worksheet, and give Beyoncé accounts for unit one. She will proceed to prepare these accounts in requisite formats and give them back to you.
You will proceed to give this new version to Shakira and ask her to audit them and make any enhancements or corrections she deems due.
Conversely, do the same for Business Unit 2 and give the raw worksheet to Shakira and her formatted worksheet to Beyoncé for auditing, corrections, and enhancements.
This will go on for as long as you will be a student at your university. Your dates will consist of discussions about the respective business units and corrections the respective auditor will bring up.
Whatever happens, do not let any of girls know she is auditing the otherās accounts.
Pay particular and close attention when any of these girls catch feelings and start to ākį¹¹bogothaā about figures or any aspect of the accounting unit they are auditing. Their ākį¹¹bogotharingā will produce gems of business brilliance.
You will pay for this through paying for these girlfriendsā upkeep. Pamper them. Let them wear the latest trends and have their hair done at least once a week. You will not be doing this for yourself. You will be doing this for your business.
Okay. There will be eeeeee coitus but let us not take this thread to the Greens, shall we?

Take a moment to reflect why you started ... I'm a 19 year old campus student,I'm currently running a viable farming project...
Why didn't you start ... I am a 19 year old farmer...
Sort out the priorities, my 2 cents
Life is short. Live passionately.

Basically that's "basic formalities". If I met an investor today. That's what I would introduce myself as.
And since i'm addressing professionals as well,might be important to state that.
Thanks tho. There's no WORSE enemy than a man with limited resources,he's got NOTHING to lose.
