A story is told of a motivational speaker who was invited to speak at a social gathering on the understanding that he would be paid Sh30,000. He was paid the initial deposit of Sh5,000.

When days later he went to collect his balance, he got a rude shock when the host told him she saw no need of paying him as did nothing but talk, “After all, we gave you food and drink,” she added dismissively.
