SALARY IS A BRIBE TO FORGET ONE'S AMBITION

Research has it that the poorest groups of people in the world are salary earners, right next to beggars. They live in a vicious cycle of poverty, managed in 30 days. Salary is continuously being awaited every month and any slight delay brings about heartbreaking anxiety, pressure and disappointment.

Salary is a short term solution to a life time problem. Salary alone cannot solve your money problems. You need multiple sources of income to balance your books. The tax return form contains about 11 income streams, of which salary is just one.
Don't live life fishing with just one hook, there are many fishes in the ocean.

Salary is the MEDICINE for managing POVERTY, not to CURE it. Only your BUSINESS or INVESTMENT Cures Poverty. Most investors are not salary earners. The difference between those beggars on the street and salary earners is one month salary. Truncate the flow of their salary for one month and you would realize that majority belong to the lower class.

If you divide your salary by the rate of exchange, you will discover that you are poorer, relative to when you started work.
Alternatively, divide your salary per annum by 2,000 hours to know what your one hour is worth. If you do not have 3 months salary in savings, you are already poor. Being a salary earner is a mentality, break It!

Your worth is far more than your salary.
Salary is the value someone has put on your effort. How much do you value yourself? You can't increase in value, unless you value yourself differently. Life is a trade off between time, effort and reward. To be rewarded more, you have to become more valuable.

Most salary earners end up poor in the long and short term. I therefore urge every one of us to be FINANCIALLY INTELLIGENT, FINANCIALLY LITERATE and OPEN OUR EYES TO SEE OPPORTUNITIES IN PROBLEMS. Delve into entrepreneurship because salary is a lifetime of disappointment.

Being a salary earner or investor is a decision. Life will not change until you decide. Make the move! Someone said "Salary is a bribe to forget one's ambition".
Good day my beloved and do have a prolific new week.

The world is waiting for you to display your talent and show off your genius.

Nigeria is one of the best places on the world to make money because there are problems with solutions. Be a person with solutions.

The young people of Nigeria are like orphans - the government which should provide security, education and jobs is irresponsible and non performing. But guess what ? Historically in all parts of the world, orphans have risen to outperform their more fortunate peers. Don't wait for a job if you don't have one - this is not that kind of society. If you have a job, don't depend on it; user it as a ladder.
Money has no favorites. Wealth is blind. Fortune knocks on every door. Be bold and success will embrace you.

Happy weekend.

abi o! I doubt if he understands what ambition means sef

It is relative you're not meant to generalize

You cannot base your life plan on Neymars' arrangement, he is a statistical anomaly. An outlier. Besides, he has a contract with his club not an employment letter, endorsement deals, and most likely, investments as well.
Neymar is a business with investors, managers, lawyers, accountants etc. So you have chosen a wrong example. If however you feel you can reproduce Neymars' success with your 9 to 5 job or negotiate an arrangement like his, please don't let me stop you.

Like someone said salary is relative so I will advice you don't generalise next time cause the Neyma in question works for a club and in turn he's paid for his services which is playing football for the club.

You have read but not understood the article nor my explanation. A gateman and a director both 'work' for a bank but the nature of their relationship with the organisation is different. Open your eyes to financial realities and stop arguing.

Don't derail this thread.
