I’m Gichuki Kahome, a committed advocate of empowerment and financial well-being. Personal challenges and successes inspired an interest in the financial industry and made me want to make finance easier to understand and less intimidating.
I stopped buying active investments (individual stocks, etc.) when I realized that they monopolized most of my attention. Despite being a small % of my portfolio, I watched them all the time.
This is why I went passive and you should too. You can't put a price on mental freedom.

@kahome_steve "Invest in yourself. Your career is the engine of your wealth." - Paul Clitheroe
As a young person, the biggest holding in your portfolio is YOU.
That's income that your career will generate over your life time.
Your skills & knowledge will do more for you than any amount of investment returns over your lifetime.
