Only 250,000 Ugandans Are Investing... And That's Why We're BROKE

Описание: Kenneth Legesi says we're sitting on oil we discovered in 1920. We have 70% arable land. A young, educated population. Natural resources everywhere. But our budget is SHRINKING, donor support is drying up, and government is borrowing at 17%.
Why?
He breaks down the uncomfortable truth that The capital is within. We're just too afraid to use it.
If you've ever felt like you're working hard but getting nowhere... if you've compared your 1M salary to someone else's 8M and felt sick... if you're tired of hearing about Uganda's "potential" without seeing real change... this conversation is for you.

💰 What we unpack
→ Why only 30% of Uganda's budget comes from taxes (and what that means for YOU) → The ATMS strategy to hit $550 billion by 2040
→ How AI is about to disrupt EVERYTHING (are you ready?)
→ Why investing 20% of your income is non-negotiable
→ The mindset shift that separates middle-class from broke
Kenneth doesn't sugarcoat it. He calls out government, businesses, AND us as individuals. But he also shows the path forward—and it's simpler than you think.
⚠️ WARNING: This will make you uncomfortable. But discomfort is where growth lives.
