There are many ways to make money in Nairobi if you are jobless. Here are just but a few

1. Parking attendant. Parking attendants make money for telling guys “Park here”. If you want to make extra money, you could even become an extra parking instructor.
2. Tour guide - Pedestrian edition. Nairobi is a tourist hub. Tourists are everywhere. All you need to to is just learn how to be adventurous and then obtain some dreadlocks. Tourists like guys with dreadlocks. Whenever people visit new towns, they experience a sense of insecurity…. help them get rid of that fear and make money while you're at it.
3. Become a hawker in public transport. “Tatu tano... Tatu tano... Tano tena”. Buy tropical sweets from a supermarket and become that entrepreneur. Sell them again.
4. Become a street preacher. Telling people that you can save them from fire and brimstone while collecting sadaka thereafter has made many a man rich in Nairobi. Have a loud voice and be theatrical and see if you could get some baggy clothes. Just be careful not to blaspheme the Almighty Creator.
5. Sell powerbanks outside the club. This one is a guaranteed money maker and is yet to become popular. With our smartphones that are always on data, Kenyans will buy. Especially when drunk or to impress their girlfriends.
6. Sell mutura, mayai and smokie pasua ...need I say more?
7. Fall in love with a rich person. Getting a sponsor will open for you doors whether you are a guy or girl... just be prepared to do some disgusting stuff. Opportunity cost.
8. Become a politician. Rare route but kusema na kutender.
9. Become a beggar. I don't like it but people are doing it. If you're ugly, you can make money off your looks. There are hundreds of people willing to give money to you just because you are ugly. People will sympathise like “Aww… he is ugly. Shika pesa ununue chips”
