If You Were Given A Billion Naira Today, Would You Stop Working? by Kzinne: 2:08pm On Nov 10, 2013
Just imagine you were given a billion naira as a gift, would you stop working and resign your present job? What would you do?

With N1Billion Naira, I'll burn my CV alongside the original and photo-copies of my certificates.


Its all about business... even your life is a 'business'. You can either gain or lose regardless of your beliefs.

btw, why would any Nigerian resident pick a job (oga, Sir, Chinese slaps, etc) against N1B?
Sorry, my kind of education is not tied with suit and british tie.

As regards what I'll do with N1Billion, thats another discussion for another thread.

I'll still retain my present job and with the money, open up some business ventures, employ good hands and supervise them remotely.

Sir, aside thieving politicians & other professional thieves, I do not think there is any JOB (not investment, contracts) in Nigeria that can give you N1Billion in 40years! So why do you want to slave under the auspices of another man's authority & possesions..

Pardon me, is there something you derive from the job bigger than what you could get from N1Billion?
Joy, fulfillment or something?


1,000,000,000 is not a small money.

Even if you earn N1,000,000 per month, it will take you 83 years to gather N1Billion, assuming you have no other source of income.

Maybe I'm not seeing what you're seeing, But Sir, do you want to settle with your salary (1million?) and then commit 1Billion in the hands of a stranger to do business for you?

I derive inner joy from what I currently do. That's why even with the N1 Billion, I will still retain my job, gain more experience and build my network while I invest the money in some other worthwhile ventures.
