We caught up with him in Europe and he walked us through his inspirational journey on how he moved to Europe, started from scratch, learnt multiple languages, did odd jobs to becoming a multimillionaire in a strange land

Dutch is a language spoken in Netherlands and Belgium 'but Netherlands is a country not a Language' 😂😂. Also France is a country and French is a language.
Consistence
The language spoken in Belgium is French.
@@njeshkim5468the language spoken in Belgium is French not Dutch..Dutch is spoken in Netherlands which is also called Holland..there's no language called. France .France is a country and French is the language spoken there .
“Successful men and women keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.”
Its beautiful to be in a country where system works. We don't mind paying taxes. I wish someone in Rutos government is watching this.
Exactly am currently in Europe and the more I travel I realize geography is EVERYTHING And there systems are working such that basics are not a struggle. If we saw where taxes are going on kenya we would take a chill pill
This is our biggest problem in Africa, I hope all our governments hear this
@@kojokwame5201 it creates social peace as well imagine if things work and you make 900 euros you wount be jealous of the person driving an expensive audi or range rover because everyone gets to eat regularly. this selfishness is affliction in africa,
Waaah you have argued like 10 women in Bunge
What a decent man! His story is truly inspirational. Its so hard to find a honest Kenyan with integrity. Kenyans we are so corrupt, and we want to get rich quick. Kudos to Sharif for going the hardwork way..
The inspirational stories you're airing out Lynn is mostly teaching us never to give up and that starting from scratch isn't a shame but a motivation.
Absolutely!
@@LynnNgugiI had to share the story of Hellen and Daniel with my friend 🎉am still praying God to open door for me to build a house for my single Mum 🙏
@@LynnNgugiHow Can i get Shariif Contact please?
Iam convinced that as a Kenyan if you get a chance to go to Europe and be determined you can make it 💪💪💪
Sure if u know why you are there. Not Alcohol, not Enjoyment only, etc
I can confirm that, ukiwa FOCUSED na ufuate sheria, utaomoka rahisi san 3-5years
You succeed anywhere if God is on your side
This is truly inspiring. I truly believe in humble beginnings. I started small in America, I've worked in nursing homes, as a housekeeper, at a fast food restaurants. All this while getting my masters degree and now I have a great job in my field and investing in various things. I always had the end goal in mind and I did every job as if my life depended on it. My siblings too had humble beginnings but are very successful in their fields

@@patrickmuzi3715 when I got my first job, i started investing in stocks through mutual funds and IRA's. I also spent only half of my income and saved and invested the rest. Within 10 years, I bought a house which I sold for a nice profit. I took that money and built apartments back in Kenya without taking a loan. Now I'm collecting rent monthly. I also have a 403B plan with my employer that I put money in every two weeks. Its not a lot of money, but it earns me about 8% annually. Also, since I work for the government, I'm guaranteed a pension. So the longer I work there, the higher the pension. Its not easy to work at the same job for more than 15 years in America, but I'm always looking at the bigger picture. Please, let's live frugally so we don't have to suffer in old age

Your inspire global series @Lyn pushed me to start what I had been procastinating. I had registered a company abroad but the fear if starting had me dragging my feet. One day, I read your post that said that you can start where you are.
It has been one month of activity and I have employed 5 professionals. The return is really good!
One day you will visit our country and I will have grown even more. Will be happy to share my story of starting over and over again and never giving up.

Rejoicing with you. Congratulations!!!
Thanks Sharif, i would like to urge people correcting him about Dutch or Netherlands, don't you think that he has stayed there long enough to get the difference? He knows better, just learn from his story and move on.. Don't focus on sideshows and miss the point, thanks, one love❤
Well said dear
Germany Netherlands and Belgium talk Dutch
That's their uniting factor
@@jeffwakamu175 Germans talk Deutsch not Dutch
Honesty is a virtue, see how Sharif's landlord understand him coz his honesty obviously. It's good to live with people well .
I wish all Mombasa youths to watch this inspiring story....kwanza wale wa 'mombasa tumetengwa'..
Nani amewatenga
mumetengwa kivipi, kuwa serious if people dont want to work utalaumu nani?
Ni kufungwa akili si kutengwa.
In Switzerland, we pay $350 per month for health insurance, but we manage to do it.I think the system works in Europe because people respect the law and if you break the law, the fine is so heavy you will not repeat it.
Depression in Europe...........i think it happens mostly when you are idle.But after 12 hours of work, you come home,you are too tired to think of being depressed, you think of falling in bed
Congratulations 🎊. I am also a CEO with 7 companies 2 in UK 🇬🇧 and 5 in Kenya. I live in London UK 🇬🇧. I will look for you someday

Turns out, the secret to becoming a multimillionaire is a one-way ticket out of Africa😁Old friend of mine went from driving a budget-friendly Toyota Vitz in Uganda, Now drifting a Lamborghini SVJ in Los Angeles 🫡
This one story hit me well. I love humility in this man. Very polite and respectful. Thank you Lynn.
A man with a golden heart, thanks Lynn for everything ❤
Shariff Badi, God bless you, and your family. I always admire this type of man, with a strong, determined and relentless mindset. I have a note-book, I am taking notes.
What a master piece, as a business owner, i need to be more hardworking than my employees, may God bless you richly for your kindness, this is my inspirational moment
I have learned something,Always take risks,2,never judge any job ,do any job you find ,mob love Lyn❤
Thank you Lynn for your inspiring stories from Kenyans far and across , you are a treasure to our great Country ! Congraculations our brother Shariff, your resilience , determination and hard work have resulted in fruits you are so more than worth of.
I live in Norway and do pay a lot of Tax as well. I do not know how the system is in Belgium , in my case , I see the benefits of the tax i pay . Free health care , free Education, a guaranteed food and ceiling over my head and safe roads and a functional public transportation. And above all Safety all around the 24 hours. I think the most would agree that , it is worth paying such high Taxes in order to be guaranteed the above i did mention .All in all , thank you Lynn and your team .
Mindset of a successful person 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏...Thanks for this Lyn
Big Up Shariff...,this guy is going far. Look how humble he is. God bless maan
What an inspiring interview! May Allah continue to bless Shariff always. I am very happy for him. His words are very correct and he deserves only the best in this life.
I salute this great man.Very humble, very wise.This guy will Excell more and more.l have forwarded to my brothers and cousins and friends to watch coz this is very inspiring. Hard work pays.
Well done for your accomplishments, Shariff. I'm glad to hear that justice was done on the corrupt mutumba man and see what God has done in your life. Surely, God is not done with your dream yet. God's plan is the best. "We can plan everything, but God is The one who approves." I'm inspired by this story a lot Lynn. I also have an inspiring story..been in Europe for 20 years now... scratched, cleaned, etc, but now I'm working with the county gvt in London UK 🇬🇧. Surely our God is a good God. Not where I want to be but trusting God's plans 100%.

Amazing story. He has explained the EU system of running the business here. Abroad is not all what people think. Its sacrifice and hardwork and respect for each other, appreciation. What i like is that they have not allowed the business to ruin there friendship and understood that friendship and business is separate entities.
Your interview with sheriff really inspired me alot, I am 27yrs from gambia living in italy for 5yrs and I have a 2yrs experience in car hawling truck driving within Europe. The interview really inspired me to extend of thinking of opening my own company in the future. Thank you so much for the video.
Winners Never Quit. He Is Too Much Into Believing That God Approves Your Blessing. Salute You Guy. Hardwork Pays. Challenges Make People Stronger. RESPECT Is The Key. Wonderful Lyn❤❤❤. I Like That When He Says,, ‘The Boss Should Get To Work Before The Employee n Not Vice-versa.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
We plan, but God approves...well said! His story is more of a testimony that God honours effort!!!
Kenya is good for rejuvenating that’s why we love vacations there but for progress, we’re better off out here because our systems work.
Help me come there please, I'm in Kenya struggling with poverty.
From Nigeria, I love this video, it has a lot of inspiration for the young Africans. The gentleman has shared an honest experience, so valuable that you can not get in school.
I like this guy, He speaks positivey all the way.. l'm also A Truck driver 18 wheeler in States.. it's need a lot of sacrifice... kudos my brother.. kudos Lynn...Vokeh.

Some time i feel like giving up in life, but lny you are the reason i wake up every day knowing that one day things will work for me,,, thank you for the best stories they do inspire me
Dutch is spoken in the Netherlands, Belgium (Flanders) and Suriname. Dutch is also an official language of Aruba, Curaçao and St Maarten. While the Netherlands' official language is Dutch, the country sits at a unique crossroads of Europe, such that French, English, and German are all also fairly common to hear. On top of that, there are dozens of dialects you may notice.
It sounds dialect in South Africa. Dutch people can follow a conversation.
True true
@@sarahmaina6410yes. The Boers who went to south Africa were from those countries
I know i myself live in the Netherlands
Kenyans we are naturally very hardworking people, we have the potential and seeing makes us realise our dreams.

I'm greatly inspired by your story Mr Sharif,Im starting from where I'm, my dream has always been to be a trucker but fear as a woman wouldn't allow me do what I desire, I'm going for it 😊,giving up is not my portion
I'm highly inspired.. Very humble and down to earth hardworking gentle man.. Keep up the good work!!
Very inspiring story, the guy is definitely going places. Best of luck to him.
Hi, this story is so inspiring.. sacrifices are rewarding.. I have memorable memories of Mombasa. Was there in 1992, when I served on a mission ship called the MV Doulos.. I am from Papua New Guinea
Wow! I was on MV Doulos in 2005. God bless you for your service 🙏🏿
@@bellaasiri4742 WOW, how cool is that. Did you meet any Papua New Guineans on the ship.. do you remember any of them.. Coz if you do, then I would know as we have prayed for them and also I sometimes am ask to help with trainings for the new recruits..
He has a heart like my dad always pushing nomate what goes wrong and now i am proud to see someone else who is determined 🙏
Good morning team LNN, personally am blessed by ur ministry of encouragement and the fact that u inspire hope and faith that dreams and ambitions are valid no matter our current situation in life be blessed
Hi Lynn. I have watched this interview of this truck driver guy and I really felt impressed by the way he climbed up the ladder. The story about the tax money impressed me. When you see your tax shilling at work, you feel proud. God bless you all.
Mr Badi has taught me one lesson today, that success is "within" oneself, we only have to take that one step, because God has already given all of us a gift, we just have to "make" the move.
The journey of course is never easy but we must keep fighting... very inspirational talk there.🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
💯. The bigger picture comes to view as you make your steps until you finally reach the destination.
Very inspiring❤❤.....
I believe one day one time my son will be like him....
Lynn Ngugi.... Been watching your programs from Ghana. Today, I'm subscribing to your channel because of this man, his soothing tone and representation spews truth and honesty.
Quite inspiring. Lynn's stories always touch, and inspire hope.. A man with a golden heart, thanks Lynn for everything .

Thank you Lynn and Sha for the advice and amazing story😊
Thats why I say we should not hate or underestimate jobs..while doing some of these jobs, God opens other doors

Lyne I live in Europe(Belgium) being in Europe is crazy with taxes, the more you have the more you pay. But when you are jobless the goverment takes care of you until you get a job. So when you are working you pay for those who are not working..
Oh my LNN, I always consider watching your show as my moments with Big Siz. Amazing work and truly always a blessing.
How many people have he helped to manuevour in life
SO inspiring, ifikie kila mtu kabisa. very eloquent very wise man
Inspiration story !!bring that job home to employ young generation
