In Kenya, the prospect of purchasing property has become precarious, plagued by issues like land grabbing, forgery and corruption. It is a discouraging scenario where one could acquire a piece of property only to find an eviction notice tomorrow. Even if you have diligently conducted your research, there remains a lingering doubt that someone, somewhere, may have dreadful intentions.

So where do you safeguard your capital in such times of uncertainty? For decades, real estate has been considered safe but as times change and forgery proliferates, where does one invest? Property, but of a different kind — intellectual property.

Winds are changing.

Back in the day, personal wealth was measured by owing large acres of land; the more extensive, the wealthier the individual. However, in today’s digital age where people are spending more time online than ever before, it’s logical to store value where they invest their time. You might be wondering; how do I preserve value through IP?

Either build your own brand, or invest in established ones. Instead of investing in a property that may come with uncertainty — heck invest in yourself and your own brand. Store your hard -earned work in something you can carry with you anywhere and liquidate anytime. This isn’t to discourage real estate investments but rather to suggest a shift in perspective towards what truly matters in this digital era: online.
