A guide to building a system for Financial Independence as a Revolutionary Cadre.
How does a Revolutionary Cadre create a self-sustaining financially independent system? When we got to Uncle Sekuru's farm the first thing that caught me by surprise was the absence of any foul smell at the farm. Comrade Sekuru rears pigs and i am accustomed to stench being associated with anything to do with piggery. That being said my surprise only grew as i was given a tour of Uncle Sekuru's Research and Development area, taking up less than half a hectare of his farm. MaComrade the new frontier for Zimbabwe's emancipation involves financial independence and i was in one of the boiler rooms where this idea is being hammered into practical use by everyday Zimbabweans. Our podcast today wont dwell on the various environment-friendly projects we at the Revolutionary Star saw at the farm. We wont even go into the scalability of the homegrown capital-margin growing initiatives we discussed. Today we talk about us,......isusu as Revolutionary Cadres "nemafungiro edu"are we Short-termists? Do we understand how to turn ideas into practical systems? Do we need to change how we think? What needs to be altered in order to create self-sustaining systems that will provide financial Independence? Comrades........Poverty is a form of slavery and as Revolutionaries economic emancipation is the next battlefront were wars will be waged. Join us today as we discuss with Uncle Sekuru on what a system is,........ as well as how to create a system and what fundamentals YOU need in order to be goal oriented.
