My plan is to acquire a slightly used Toyota Hiace that has a capacity of 16 passengers on cash terms.
Since my work is part-time, I would like to be the one to run the vehicle as the driver
My name is Peter. I have two digital jobs from which I earn a combined net pay of between Sh90,000 and Sh100,000. I save a minimum of Sh50,000 every month while the rest of the money goes to my monthly expenses. I am considering getting into the long-distance matatu business as my third hustle. My plan is to acquire a slightly used Toyota Hiace that has a capacity of 16 passengers on cash terms. Since my work is part-time, I would like to be the one to run the vehicle as the driver to eliminate unnecessary expenditures as well as have a better grasp on maintenance. I assume that even by working half the month in one of the busy long-distance routes (Starting from Nairobi to Lower Eastern, Mount Kenya or Central Rift), I will have added quite a substantial amount to my monthly income. Is this a viable option or am I throwing my money down the drain? Please help.
