"I ran out of money; at this stage, my house was at roof level. I then had to pause the project until I could finish paying off the loan. God blessed me with a new job that really assisted me with accelerating my savings towards completing my project," he shared.

Kenny expressed that the challenge he faced while building his home was to "budget" as he spent more than expected.

In the video, he showcased his beautiful house, which had a huge front yard and more incredible things. @kenny_018295 said he was "financially broke" and faced many hardships but never gave up on his dreams. Although his divorce happened unexpectedly, he had to "re-adjust" his life.

"No one gets married to divorce, so it took a while for me to accept the new norm that I was a returned soldier from my ex-marriage, and I am grateful that there are principles I took with me and which I am applying in my life now."
