11 Great Tips On How To Court Poverty

11 Great Rules That Will Help You Remain Poor All Your Life


- SOURCE UNKNOWN

1. Never wake up early: Keep stretching and turning in bed until you get too hungry to continue dozing. If there are no bedbugs, why hurry to get up?

2. Never plan how to spend your money: Whenever you get money, start spending it right away and when it is finished, try to count and recall how you spent it.

3. Don't think of saving until you have real big money: How can you save when you earn so little?

Those telling you to save are not sympathetic to your burning needs.

4. Don't engage in activities usually reserved for the 'uneducated': How can you, a graduate, engage in e-commerce, petty trading or home- based business?

That is for people who never went to school.

5. Don't think of starting a business until an angel comes from heaven and gives you capital:

How do they expect you to invest before you get millions of Naira?

Even though more than half the businesses in your town were started with a few hundred shillings, you as a smart person can only start with millions.

6. Complain about everything except your own attitude:
Blame the system, the government and the banks that refuse to lend you money.

They are all bad and do not want you to get rich.

7. Spend more than you earn: To achieve this, buy consumer products in credit and keep borrowing from friends and employer.

8. Compete in dressing: Make sure you wear the latest clothes among all the workers in your office. Whenever your neighbor buys a new phone, get one that is more expensive.

9. Get yourself a nice second- hand car that costs more than three times your gross monthly pay:

That will surely keep you in debt long enough to hinder the implementation of any bad plans that could make you accumulate capital.

10. Give your children everything they ask for since you are such a loving parent and they should not struggle for anything because you do not want them to suffer.

That way, they will grow up lazy and hence too poor to add value to the community just like you in your days!

11. Ignore God After all He's A Spirit and may be too irrelevant for today's challenges...

Abi? He would not understand.

...."BE WISE"...

though it is addressed to the lazy minded
but the alert person can gain an insight from it
