99.7% of Kenyans Have Less Than 500k

99.7% of Kenyans, according to the Kenya Deposit Insurance Corporation, have 500k in their bank accounts.

So hii mambo ya throwing around figures like making 200k a month iishe. Most of you earn 25k a month……in fact, 95% of you. Cold hard cash is non-existent along 99.7% of the population.

Tafakari hayo.

Si hoja our wealth is in land , machinery, cattle, business etc
It’s only fools- or wage slaves abroad- who keep money in the bank

Ww najua you are excited to see dollars for the first time after landing your caregiver minimum wage job. Ndio you can’t stop gloating hapa Nyandarua shagsmondo.
Sisi tuko na shamba , matractor, kisiagi, na freedom. Tusisahau ng’ombe, mbuzi, kuku na ngamia. Now run along and sniff Mr Williams kama it’s time for a diaper change. Msenge wewe

The fact that they are using bank account to make such a conclusion is a flaw. People have more than 500k but not all have them in banks

That translates to around 162,000 kenyans, might be true.

I told you people earn 50k in Nairobi and are happy, their marriages are thriving and kids lack nothing.

I have less than 15k in the bank
But my long and short term assets are more than 500k am sure most Kenyans have their money invested elsewhere.Only fools i.e 1.3% keep money in their banks…Tafakari hayo

I dare you to liquidate those assets and prove to me that you now have the 500k in liquid cash. Challenge impossible brother. You’ll be lucky if you’re able to liquidate your assets for anything more than 200k in a poverty stricken country.

Ata jamaa ako na a 30M house in Membley will only collect 18M at most. The value of your assets is how much the market is willing to pay for them. Those big figures are merely speculative. Wake up and stop dreaming.
