I know a thousand naira aint worth much to you right know, but a quick stroll down memory lane will get you really excited about how you felt the first time you held the sweet reward for your labour. The joy, the pain, euphoria, the feeling of adulthood. To say the least its must have been great for you back then.
.
Which begs the question,
How did you earn your first one thousand 1k ?
And how did you spend it?

I no mean money wey person dash you o,

Working at a paint factory back in primary 5 - JSS2. I spent it all on sprint chewing gum, Goody Goody and those small satchet of very sweet condensed peak milk. I spent the rest buying knockout during Christmas period and dashing village people money.

Me, i earned my first 1k by serving as labour (ogba'aka) for borehole drillers, lol,
My main work was to move sand from the water channels, I didnt know what pushed me, naso i carry go jack "winch" only me. The next day i was promoted to a full "clamper" lol.
Borehole drillers can relate.

Its rear thing for a man not to remember the first time he was paid for a service he rendered.
Just like a woman saying she forgot her first kiss.
Its impossible.

I really don't know how old you are but I am old enough not to remember the first time I made 1k.

Maybe the first time I made such amount, I picked it on the road sef or maybe I stole it from my mom's pause.

this got me thinking about the first thousand naira I made,it was in 1990 so a thousand naira was a big deal back then,I was doing general house cleanup and taking out papers and trash to burn when I saw share certificates of Guinness and Nigerian tobbaco company bought in my name by my father,so after putting two and two together I went to Union securities in enugu and demanded to get all bonus shares from those companies,,I got them after some while and later sold it to general securities for #58,500 naira cheque which in 1990 is a problem I am still in js3 no bank account,so I just paid the cheque into my mother's salary account in cooperative and commerce bank and after the clearing period just took a blank cheque and signed her signature and collected my money,it was huge the biggest denomination was #20 naira back then,one plate of food with meat is #5 naira then and it took me almost a year to fully squander the loot,042 flexings

that was my js3, i work in a furniture factory were i supplied goods to customer, when i dey find money to start my ss1, i make money pass 1k sha com usd am buy books that term use the remaining flex break time!!..
