How M’mukiira exhibited extra-ordinary money discipline
A story is told of one Merian tycoon M’mukira. Despite being a millionaire, M’mukiira observed money discipline that has never found a match. When in a journey M’mukira would pay Ksh. 25 to hang on vehicles tailboard rather than getting into the vehicle and pay a full charge of Ksh. 50. In other occasions M’mukiira would never tea and mandazi in hotel. He would carry cooked yams or arrowroot so that he would only pay for tea.
According to Morris Muriira, this is the kind of discipline youths should adopt to attain financial freedom.
