AM REALLY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW MOST PEOPLE SPEND THEIR VERY FIRST EARNED MONEY,
ITS ALWAYS SAID THAT "A CHILD USES ITS FIRST MONEY TO BUY AKARA"
DON'T REALLY KNOW IF ITS TRUE OR FALSE,
BUT I'LL REALLY LOVE TO KNOW HOW YOU SPENT YOUR FIRST EVER EARNED MONEY?[b][/b][color=#006600][/color]

PLS REPLY

I give kudos to the old men, they are known for their wisdom,
that small adage is a time tested and proven one.
I spent my first income on expensive phone which got stolen
after few weeks of purchase.
But up till now i've used my last kobo on equity investment.
Now think i'm wiser

I bought beer plenty for my men. Went partying through the weekend. Gave about half to my mum. Now I am wiser as the guy said, not that I regret the life anyways!
But will those days of youth come again, I wish

i bought myself a nintendo game (i was 12)

i went to a game center and spent practical half on paying for the games i played.(9yrs)

I was about 5years old when I started receiving income. My two uncles who lives with us pay me to pick balls for them whenever they are playing lawn tennis and also pay me when I help them wash their cars. I made money and fell in love with my job so much that I started charging my father for services. I had a small saving box where I drop the earning.

I think my first accumulated income was robbed off me by a Lebanese jackpot owner. I sneaked out from church with my friends and went there with all my savings and this old man kept encouraging me to play and play in order to win big until I lost all my money. I became heart broken, started crying and went into depression after that[na N5 we de talk about here]. It pained me so much b/c I worked hard for that money. When my dad heard that I went and gambled, he whipped me like a dog but later paid me back my lost savings.

i will pay my tight and spend the having fun

What ur busy wiv that?

I spent mine buying cloths and and drinks
It's very interesting spending ur first salary roughly

I don't think there are up to 5% who spend their first
salary wisely.

i dont earn minimum wage just one trotro job and the wage was so small its easy to waste so my mum bought me colo and asked me to drop half in it and spend the rest after seven months i broke colo and found about £800 newaiz i spend my first on buying doner mixed kebab and 1 litre coke

i was sixteen and was working with a Travel Agency (2001) and my salary was 1,500naira, i gave it to my mum and she bought me a Phillips Iron (funny enough,I'm still using it till date) , the rest was shared amongst my siblings, i don't remember buying any akara sha o,

Am getting mine in a couple of days, lets wait n see what i'll do with it. But one thing is certain am paying 10% to God first.

back in 9ja
i bought a pair of baggy jeans and a fitted big collar shirt.
i still buy em till 2day

I haven't earned my first income.

suits, shirts and shoes, thought of it as an investment to aid earning more dough!

O boy! Its been quite long i earned my first income. Actually, when i was in ss2 at MSG makurdi, i got a contract as a private teacher 2 teach two pips(ss1 & a GCE candidate) for the sum of N**** per month, When i got my 1st CHEES!! I got a sonyericsson phone, some jeans and bam-bam tops, sent some credict 2 my jigga-man and guez wat else, A good ofatry the following sunday.

The first income i earned was as a model. That was years ago as a teenager.
I was more excited about it than the money i received for doing it, so I gave it all to my mum.

bought mum and dad nice gold watches. Bought me a N93 phone.

My first income was my IT allowance from ITF. I bought francine River's "An Echo in the Darkness" with part of the money and spent the rest on clothes

bought a glass skull

I got me a really nice PDA.

gave 20% to God and gave my grandmum some.i have forgotten what i did with the rest.

i did 3 commercials when i was 11yrs old and and through that i got a top part in a movie, all before i turned 13yrs old.
i was too young to spend any of the loot and only got 20% while the rest was put in a saving account till i was 21(thats the law). the first thing i did when i got the money at 21 was to get a FAT ride which i totalled within 2yrs!!!!!

ahh I missed my french class

'was in in year 2 at the polytechnic then. My holiday job paid off quite well so I bought a tokunbo fridge and tokunbo okada. Used the remaining pay to booze with friends and when I ran out of cash, I started doing okada runs after lectures till graduation.

I followed the tradition of my family gave it to my Dad and he shared it gave me the larger share and gave every1 in the family smtn.
This is done to stress the fact that all we have, we share
