About Me

I grew up in a big family of 14 children. That was a humble background. But God enabled us to go to school. I currently doing my masters degree in Telecommunication engineering.
As a first born, my fees was not a challenge. However, our family money became scarce when my many siblings started going to secondary schools. I am grateful that they have since graduated and are now working. Education became the key to good life.

My Business

I presently do an online research work with writerbay.com. I have been doing the business since 2008. I also manage a school in Oyugis Town called Bright Future academy. I use the profits to help support some of my siblings who are still in school. I am also still doing my masters degree and use the money in such avenues. I also have a wife and two children.
I started a business while still in the university. I did an agricultural investment and got 70% profit while in second year at the university. I have also done sales of agricultural products.
I look forward to grow as a businessman to ultimately own real estate and run a school as a director.

Loan Proposal

I request for another loan to help me buy a computer for my freelance business.

The business is expanding and I desire to create a work station for one employee to help me with the freelance research writing.

a second hand laptop (core 2 duo), will cost $ 210.

The computer will help increase the work load that I deliver as the season picks.

With another worker, I will be able to increase my profits by $ 100 in a month.

Kindly help me achieve the expansion.

Thanks a lot

    Wao, thanks a lot for giving me money again. I am truly humbled.

    I will buy a lap top for my business. The new machine will help me create a work station for another employee to work with me in freelance research. My profits will increase as a result of the new hire because of the computer.

    Thanks a lot. Blessings!

    Thanks a lot for the money. It helped me buy gadgets for solar cell which I intend to buy in future. I used the 9500 kenya shillings to buy wires and installation gear for solar cell.

    I am happy that the solar cell has potential of eliminating black out hence providing reliable power through out.

    Hello, Thanks a lot for the money. I received 9665.

    The money was helpful in purchasing a solar panel.

    The objective is to help me stay with power for longer hours when electricity is off.

    I am so very grateful.

    I will be posting the pictures in a moment.

    Thanks a lot for your help. I am grateful.

      Great to see that you received your loan! I hope that the solar cells work well. If this proves to be a positive experience for you then hopefully you will be able to give advice to family,friends, and neighbours who are interested in the same technology.

      I wish you all the best,

      Chris

    Hello friends, I must say a big thank you again for your help so far. I have taken two loans to date. I first bought a laptop battery, then used the second loan to buy a rechargeable battery and an inverter.
    These items have improved my production as a freelancer. I can work for longer hours even if mainstream electricity goes off.
    I have more profits because of the power stability.
    Thanks a lot friends. My next plan is to buy and install a solar panel. I am looking to a time of stable green energy. I desire to work without any slight interruption.

    Thanks a lot for your help.
    Grateful.
