He slept hungry and missed school, now he makes millions from molding luxurious mansions | LNN
When they said don't judge a book by its cover, they simply meant don't judge Alex by his accent, shoes, or clothes because this humble millionaire has his name written all over hundreds of mansions in Kenya.
But despite the profits, milestones, and bragging rights, Alex also knows how it feels to sleep hungry and lose hope along the way.
On this episode of Inspire Global, he opens up to Lynn Ngugi on his past struggles, the breakthroughs, lifting the lives of more than 48 workers at his construction firm to working for the who is who in the country

I have a lot of respect for people and especially young people who recognize the power of humility and never look down on others unless they are lifting them up. I have learned many lessons through this episode. Thank you Alex for sharing your journey with us and for remaining humble. And massive gratitude for the many lives you have touched. @Lynn you are as amazing as always!
His humbleness, resilience and knidness is wanting. May God continue blessing the work of your hands..
For a long time I have never commented on videos, but going by the conversations the guy giving a real story of what it takes to rise ranks. Many of stories are often unrealistic. Lessons learnt: 1. Pay tithes as required by God. 2. Stay humble as you rise on higher levels. 3. Be consistent and persistent. 4. Marry the right person. Blessings Lyn.
