    As a guy that completed basic education in the rural areas, I'm learning how much of a disadvantage it was to be educated there. Almost all the guys that make it in a big way have a good primary/high school as a foundation.

      Yup the “Harvard Graduate” archetype has a pipeline beginning from the earliest stages

      Sadly this is true....good education goes hand in hand with good bursaries, exposure good sports and coaches, exposure to people who could be good connections in the future.

      What do you mean? if you look at a lot successful black business owners at a JSE level come from rural and township schools. Sizwe Nxasana, Nolitha Fakude, Mteto Nyathi. The people i do business with now I mostly met in varsity, worked with, play soccer with etc. Network is everywhere brother, make the most with what you have, where you are. We always see someone else’s life as better than ours. Took me a while to realise that.

    This guy is very informative. He takes his hustle very serious and never gave mediocre content. He's always well prepared and well informed in any topic he tackles. I like his work ethic ways he use to inform and educate. A big S/O to Penuel for the platform 👌

    Now I know I'm lazy... Vabaza's work ethic, a never stopping to learn, the ability to see opportunities... I'm even inspired by him.
    Thank you Pen

    One of the best and most eye-opening episodes. Zimasa is a gem of knowledge and should really come back for the second time. The vast difference between well-off schools and the not-so-well-off schools is vast.

    Pen and your guys you keep bringing….they are a cream of the crop in many different ways. If only this country operated on meritocracy we would be far or better than where we are. Just my thought. Thank you for bringing these guests to our attention. Those that have ears will hear.

    Another solid day one. This gent is a technical ops guy that looks into the mechanics of any operation for deeper understanding so he know where, how & why to place himself. I like his system ops & efficient mindset. Solid G.
    Pen uk’gwema the constant/periodic interruptions, please carry a pad & pen so you can note down questions that come up while your guests are speaking. There are some thought pattern interruptions that takes place here & there due to you being conversational/engaging. Yes keep the nature of the exchange on that conversational plain without ukuba ngena em’lonyeni. Your subsequent questions tend to throw them off ngas’kathi & they don’t remember to finish their thoughts off.
    Keep the great work up ket! Massive big up to the crew behind the scenes.

    Mr Vabaza's curiosity and hunger to knowledge and information is on another level, it proves to us people who likes and enjoy to consume informative content that we are on the right path, i didn't know Mushtafa in person, but his name used to be thrown left and right at YFM back then, S/O to the black Pen for this mouthwatering episode🙌🏿

    As someone who's been watching American Shows like Impact Theory by Tom Bilyeu and How I Built This by Guy Raz aspiring to sit in on those shows one day, I think with no doubt The Penuel Show is the 1st South African show I aspire to be on one day. To Zim my brother we've had a lot of interesting conversations together you're just so brilliant my brother, this country needs visionaries like you to take us forward. Keep up the good work! Penuel THANK YOU FOR THIS PLATFORM! It's bigger than you...
