A Kenyan man who has spent the past 13 years working in the United States has announced his decision to return home, noting he feels he has been wasting time.

Why is Benson tired of the US?

Benson Gitau began his video by reflecting on his extensive work history since arriving in the US in 2011.

He revealed that he had served four years in the military before transitioning to corporate employment, including a deployment to Afghanistan.

Despite earning a substantial salary of $12,000 per month in his last job, he came to the realization that he was squandering his most precious resource—time.

He admitted that sharing his thoughts on TikTok was unnecessary but felt compelled to express his sentiments.

Benson confessed that he had recently quit his job in December to pursue entrepreneurship.

He recognised that although self-employment might not yield the same financial rewards as being employed, it offered him the freedom to prioritize what truly matters to him.

Benson to spend quality time with family

Benson emphasised that life is not solely about chasing wealth but about enjoying the fruits of one's labour.

He spoke passionately about his desire to spend quality time with his family and fully appreciated the investments he made in real estate back in Kenya.

He expressed frustration at his limited time with his loved ones, particularly his young child, who spends most of the day in daycare under someone else's care.

With a clear vision for his future, Benson declared his intention to return home to Kenya and focus on property management.

He is leveraging his investments in real estate to create a lifestyle that prioritizes fulfilment over financial gain.

His candid and introspective video resonated with many viewers, sparking discussions about the importance of work-life balance.
