[b]Let me educate you. A created thing can't give himself purpose, by theory of being a creature. Success is not measured by achievement of dreams, it is measured by fulfillment of purpose. To be achiever and be successful are not the same thing. Bill gate, Mark, Dangote, Most of them on that list are achievers. Sucessful men on earth are those turning many to righteousness. Success is defined by two reasons 1. Man school of thought 2. God's school of thought Remember the rich man in Luke, the world called him a rich man, but God sees him as a fool.. What you can do is the ability given to you by God to be successful in your means for attaining to the end.
A man's end is simply what he was created to be. Man at its best equals to vanity. Philantropism does not lead to heaven, righteousness does. Are you living for yourself
like the rich fool did or God's purpose for you. With your wealth do you support the gospel to be preached, are you a soul winner, are you a light in the darkness. [/b]

angry Factors that make a business grow fast. 1, Location :One cannot be living in his village and tell us that his business will grow at same rate if he were operating from Apapa Lagos. 2 Strategy :Every business has a strategy. One can be in a business for 5yrs and still not understand the strategy peculiar to his line of business. 3, Mentorship :This is the major reason for Apprenticeship. This is the preparation ground for entrepreneurs. Here lies the answer to successfull business growth in Africa. We stop here but not exhausted

Dangote will still hold the position for many years to come as nobody is even close to him now, and Nigeria factors favor the rich to be getting richer. Well hopefully I'll be rated someday.

grin Nigeria is a poor country by comparison. Do you know that the four biggest African banks are in South Africa? The fifth and the ninth one are in Egypt. The sixth and the tenth one are in Morocco. The seventh is in Algeria. While the eight biggest African bank is still in South Africa. Let us stop making mouth and rather make money
