From Makanga to Working In Insurance | Eliud Matheri

Eliud's money story didn't follow the usual script. Before insurance offices, boardrooms, and BIMA TV, there were matatus, fruit crates, daily cash, and survival decisions. In this episode, Eliud opens up about the uncomfortable middle. The phase where income grows but discipline slips. Where loans feel like progress until they don’t. Where mistakes teach harder lessons than success ever could. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Access all our links in one place: https://lnk.bio/Financially_Inc 💹 Ready to start trading? 🔍 Who is FXPesa: https://shorturl.at/rWFqC 🎓 Learn how to trade: https://shorturl.at/xR2Ye 📊 Try a demo account: https://shorturl.at/izDMc 💸 Open a live account: https://shorturl.at/Od2ux ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 02:40 – 2025 Wins & Financially Incorrect Decisions 04:35 – Early Money Lessons & Childhood Hustles 06:20 – Entering the Insurance Industry 08:30 – Hawking, Makanga Life & Surviving Nairobi 12:40 – Choosing Stability Over Fast Cash 14:30 – Makanga Side Hustle & Early Investments 19:10 – Career Growth: From Filing Clerk to Insurance Professional 26:30 – How Insurance Really Works (Claims & Mistakes) 34:30 – Career Acceleration: Underwriting, Jubilee & Big Business 38:15 – Costly Financial Mistakes & Loan Lessons 41:30 – Money Mindset Shift & The Birth of BMA TV 44:50 – Marriage, Family & Financial Responsibility 47:25 – Happiest vs Saddest Money Moments 49:15 – Advice to His Younger Self 51:15 – Final Reflections & Outro
