MUST? Says who?

Is this supposed to be the benchmark for success?

If I may ask, OP how many do you have by the way?

Your No. 3 is quite amusing, so I should start “famzing” now because of this your list?

I don’t need to be a prophet to know that there is a 40-something-old man / men are looking at this thread, drinking their sugarless “soak and travel” garri cussing you under there breath grin

I just called Emeka my 42-yr old neighbor to come and see your list and he immediately threw “waka” at my PC screen before I reminded him say no be my lappy write am.

Here’s why - Emeka no make O’ level for school – had to sit for WAEC several other times before being eligible to sit for JAMB. Even as at that na combined result im dey use. Emeka writa jamb 6 times before them give admission for one state university. Emeka spent another 6 years in school, no thanks to “ASUU strike”. He graduates and seeks employment for two years before eventually securing one in a “one-man business” where he is paid peanut. So tell me how feasible this list is to him
1. Drivers License –For what now? For where danfo buses yampia?
2. Personal Cheque Book – Cheque book lowun lowun? But e get ATM and savings withdrawal slip sha
3. A Billionaire Friend – Physical or facebook friend?
4. Personal Savings – Yes but na only 2k dey there
5. Wife – Dat one no hard now, Emeka don marry since 28 sef but when woman meet hunger in person for Emeka house before she run comot
6. International Passport – Emeka? Internatinal Passport? 2 parallel lines!
7. Car – For what now? E be like Emeka follow Isrealites waka for wilderness that time. The guy dey trek anything
8. Land – Land? Person wey still dey owe 7 months rent?
9. HNI Club Membership – Kilonjebe?
10. Registered Company – Person never chop belleful, you say make im go create company.

Limitations and expectations placed by Babylon system and another man on another man. Lest you forget this popular quote, ' the downfall of a man is not the end of his life'. A man can still dust of the dust, pick himself up and with the help of God's wisdom, understanding and knowledge can achieve all that you listed up there within a year at even 70years old or above. Go ask KFC restaurant franchise....

The expectations of the upright shall be gladness, even at 100. Shalom cool

No. Not necessarily mean a suicide. It is just a wake up call for any responsible man that thinks about the future. Though, there could be some challenges, but let the man remain focus, and with God's help, he can even achieve more than 50 list.

Shalom!
