Most folks go overseas to seek better lives. We've loads of learned youth out in the streets without jobs. Out here, even the most unskilled jobs pay handsomely. Am in the UK and am not afraid to say am happy. I love home but only the haves and the connected make it in Kenya. I won't think twice remaining here! My opinion.
Jalang'o wacha ujuaji. A good number of us here have visited fine colleges and work as professionals. Kazi pia ni kazi, people earn genuine money abroad. In Kenya most wealth is gotten through corruption abd not proud of those people.
If you're majuu, jikaze. Live your life you can't make everyone happy, showing off by drinking is not smart. Invest with people you trust. Home is best as Jeff says, but not all people here are struggling, when in school, you'll have to hustle untill you get better opportunities, bills here don't stop, I would work for the old if I had to, no shame in that. People back home will eat your money they don't care if you dig graves all night every night. Be smart.
I agree no place sweeter than home..but one thing i know why some guys wont come back home is because...Systems work in this countries compared to Kenya....then it depends with what you do in America....
There are success stories abroad and everyone's story is different. Can't generalise. There r people with one 9-5 job or 1 shift and r living comfortably. Social life ndiyo iko chini compared to +254
Jeff, its your generation that hustled like that in America. Today Kenyans are nurses, doctors, professors, IT consultants and many are self employed making money we could have never dreamt of back home. Not everyone can make it so easily in kenya unless one has tall relatives like you
@@florencekimondo1681 Say No More ! You're 100% on point.! Jeff is salty bcoz he was fired from CNN coz alinyandua some white chic or something of the sort (according to reports) . So asiletee watu wenye wanahussle majuu. !
I cannot agree more Jeff& Jalas..Am in Europe and this is my anthem when i have my girls over for a drink..there's nothing like home guys all that glitters is not gold😍😍😍big fan in Reykjavik
If you stay at home, you will not automatically succeed or fail, likewise if you go to America, depending on your education and skills you bring on the job, you do not have to live on minimum wage. What you make comes down to your education or training, specific skills you bring to the job and their worth in the market, wit and a bit of luck. Learn a trade and learn it well, or get a degree in something you are passionate about and the rest will be history. Do not underestimate the role of the long, hard path: education. It has led me to earn more than most of the working population here (Switzerland) as a data scientist.
I have been away from home for one and a quarter year but I feel it's been forever I am planning to come home towards the end of this year...may God keep us in diaspora safe
There thousands of Kenyan professionals doing excellent in the States. You need to socialize in the right places and with the right people. Just like in Any society there are those who struggle and those who are having it easy.
I'm a Kenyan living outside Africa. I love home but struggle to see how it survive there because I have lived in a totally different system . Perhaps if I lived at home on my formative years ...
BS. You are worried about people who have jobs and supporting their corrupt relatives back in Kenya. Of course Jeff Koinange is done with USA after he did what Kenyans do better - paying for that story he presented for CNN that he was the only one to have access to those Nigerian Cartels selling oil at Delta state in Nigeria . You are talking about people who work very hard to support themselves and their relatives back home who con them. There are millions of Kenyan youth loitering in towns with no jobs.if they got a chance to come to USA to do those manual jobs, they will do so in a heartbeat . Not very Kenyan in Kenya works in TV or radio station and we all know why.
Car Chonjo Wondering the same.They should be worried about the needy jobless youths in Kenya.Why care about whatever jobs people are doing in diaspora as long as they are not working at gunpoint
Gosh, everything you guys said is so true. I live in south Carolina. East west Home is best. Jalas, you are too funny but so true to the point. I love home.
Men Jeff that's true no place like home..i have been in US for 19 years work so many jobs not easy at all end up a Truck driver been on US roadway cost to cost. Story to tell everywher. Dec 2019 I will came to Nairobi..let me be a guest on STORY A DAY..big Hi Jalango wenyewe very funny guy.cant wait to this man..
So because someone has decided to hustle in America their success is less valid when compared to yours..yes I get it sometimes people visiting from the states can get prideful over nothing and that is wrong but the hustle people put in is real and it is distasteful to talk hate over it.Also let’s not forget that some of us move to America,go to school and work towards establishing careers.
Insecurity is my major problem hier in Germany i can wake up in the middle of night and take a walk without any fear.. JEFF JALANGo hebu uliza why we are forced to come back home just to be issued with the new passports why cannt the embassy issue them
No person want to leave their family and go work oversees. Whether unaosha wazee ama we ni doctor, people do it for lack of employment which at the moment stands at almost 50% in Kenya. Do you guys know the remittances Kenyans sent last year was higher than that of tourism. So in a way Jeff and jalas benefits from these menial jobs indirectly.
I would rather invest outside Kenya ie New Zealand than I invest in Kenya to me it's a hell NO I'm extremely sorry 😐😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔 that's the bitter truth by Steve Irungu Jermaine
steeve maina it's not everyone in diaspora who needs to do 3 shifts, there are so many who in well paying professions. we should respect those who work instead of waiting for handouts. Its their life after all,who are we to judge them?
But again....Jeff we have sucess stories in America...But wait a minute..Listen to Jeff's reason why he cant live Abroad...."i can wake up and say hi to people..."....He has a point...but surely Jeff..we have sucess stories
@Khalayi...same to me..i have awonderful neighborhood...but silaumu Jeff....born in a rich family he had options...some of us have no option thats why we have to network.....

I can relate..I tried to build my relatives a home in the rural area,after thousands of dollars sent there the project never took off come to find out they squandered the fucking money I was furious and that was a couple of years ago..I love home, but am done with trying to help out ungrateful relatives..I told them unless it's a matter of life and death,Kila mtu ajitete na ajisaidie.
You guys been here... there is no place like kenya... but I'm not afraid of coming home no matter how far you are in maendeleo.. cause even back here in diaspora there are those who have made it better than you lakini twarudi nyumbani with or without.
Why are Kenyans in Diaspora so bitter with Jalas?? There's so much truth in what they are saying. Most Kenyans in Diaspora all they do when they come back here is talk of how great things are in countries they live in with some annoying forced American accents while some live in Asia or Europe! We have problems back home but please, let's not try to run away from some truths here - najua Wengine mtanikujia na hivo vingereva vyenu va kutisha 😂😂😂🤣
I would rather disappear for good than I return to Kenya to me it's a hell NO I'm extremely sorry 😐😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔 that's the bitter truth by Steve Irungu Jermaine
Hey! Not everyone goes through what you are describing or imagining. Some of us have very professional jobs that are well paying. We are doctors, nurses, managers etc. As long as you have good health and focused, you'll do very well here and don't forget that we help uplift other people's lives there. Wacha generalization!
4yrs later we still here replaying this stuff. Mhesh and Jeff were just amazing

Home is sweet when comfortable but if you are struggling ,kenya without money is hell.
Ati si kanjo walibomoa..... ati tulikupigia hukushika😂😂😂😂😂...... amazing stuff jalas
Live where your heart finds peace or likes it. For some its Africa, some diaspora.
There are success stories abroad and everyone's story is different. Can't generalise. There r people with one 9-5 job or 1 shift and r living comfortably.
Social life ndiyo iko chini compared to +254

American dream its a facade
