Remember in USA the number of older people is higher compared to the youth. The aging population therefore need people to take care of them, hence securing the job of providing aid to this people is easy and somehow well paying.
The work is normally disgusting but has money. Kapela said that , he had a very difficult moment in taking care of the old. He had to wash them, clear their waste, and do everything for them.

Per hour, Steph Kapela used to earn, 12Dollars, that is about ksh.1800. which is a good amount of money , especially in Kenya. He did the work for sometime, and it was just hectic, but he had to do it because it was the only work he could have done with his work permit.
