Lots of Nigerians presently live above their means, in terms of lifestyle, in terms of dressing, just to mention a few.
A typical Nigerian mostly believe that when he/she dies, that's the end. No legacy, nothing to be remembered for. This has made integrity eroding in the society which has made greed, corruption and lies to rule the country.
People tends to appreciate success even if they don't know the source of the said wealth. Success to a Nigerian is not how much you have invested but how much do you have at hand.
People wants to see how much your ride is worth? how beautiful is your wife? how much do you spend in the club. which has made people to start living fake and false lives in other to impress others, when all they should be worried about is how to impress themselves.
A graduate that doesn't have any means of income in Nigeria will be waiting for the government to start distributing monies or jobs when he/she can start up something little on her own. And when the job is finally gotten and the pay is 50,000 naira. the individual has prepared a personal budget of 75,000. which will make the person on worried on how to get the extra 25,000, which will either result in stealing of public funds and term it smartness. And anyone that wants to chart his/her own way in life is either called a fool, a dullard or not smart enough.

To this end, i implore all Nigerians to imbibe the culture of financial literacy or financial prudence in other to become better in life.

Thanks

I totally agree with you,like the scriptures say: My people perish for lack of knowledge!

Illiteracy is a big cankerworm that is eating deep into the lives of promising Nigerians and the society.

GOD deliver us!

in addition, Nigerians do not imbibe the culture of savings. as a result, we are unprepared for the rainy days.
