To promote long-term financial stability, men have been urged to prioritize investments for a secure future.
Rev. Maxwell Murithi alias Mombasa said with economic uncertainties and changing landscapes, financial planning has become a paramount concern.
“The current economic uncertainties call for proactive investment strategies to pave the way for a more robust and secure tomorrow. One needs to have several income streams to secure tomorrow,” he advised.
Murithi highlighted the need for men to take charge of their financial destinies by making informed investment decisions.
He noted that embarking on a journey toward monumental goals requires a strategic mindset combining an ambitious vision and a willingness to start small.
“Through incremental progress, significant achievements are realized over time. All that you need is to dream big while taking manageable steps towards your aspirations,” he advised.
The ACK priest stressed that relying solely on traditional savings may not be sufficient in the face of inflation and other economic challenges.
Speaking during the Gitare Elites Men group end-of-year party at the Tredds Garden located in Ndagani, Tharaka-Nithi County he said any project or work can be a stepping stone toward a secure future provided that one keeps focusing towards the dream.
The call for increased financial literacy and investment comes at a time when societal norms are evolving, and traditional gender roles are being redefined.
John Nyaga, the Gitare Elites Men chairman said men had pressing issues of stress and demanding responsibilities in modern society.
Nyaga noted that as societal expectations continue to evolve, an increasing number of men find themselves grappling with mounting debts while attempting to shoulder the weight of various responsibilities.
“The rising cost of living coupled with traditional expectations has placed a substantial burden on men. Many are resorting to loans and credit to meet these financial demands, leading to a cycle of debt that can adversely affect their mental and emotional well-being,” he said.
Men often feel compelled to meet societal expectations of being providers, sometimes at the cost of their financial health.
The duo noted that balancing responsibilities and financial stability is a genuine challenge that needs attention now and in the future.
Gitare Elites Men group was founded to address the unique challenges faced by men seeking to create a supportive community and drive positive change in various aspects of men’s lives.
