Content Director Trevor has revealed that he and his ex-girlfriend, content creator Mungai Eve, endured significant financial hardship while building a house for her parents. According to Trevor, he believed the project would enhance Mungai’s public image.
However, their breakup, which saw Trevor taking control of their shared YouTube channel, occurred after the project drained their finances. He explained that any money they earned was immediately reinvested into construction materials, leaving them in a precarious financial situation.
At that time, we had no money because we had spent everything on the building. Any cash we got went straight into construction. If we had Sh300,000, it would buy mabati; if we had Sh200,000, it would buy cement. We were basically surviving on whatever we could get, but we had already used all our resources on the house, so we were left with nothing.”
