He is lucky

I hope more people will see the wisdom in your words.

Stories like this perpetrate the MYTH that people need to wait for all the stars to line up before their dreams can come true.

And so people keep procrastinating, waiting for that "perfect" time when they'll meet the right "investors"...

..and while waiting, they'll wake up one day too old to do anything useful.

For every wunderkind who gets a "commitment" of millions, there are THOUSANDS of people who are quietly working at their dreams in less conspicuous ways.

Of course they don't get much press. Their ideas usually aren't the "Next Big Thing".

But not everyone wants to be famous.

Good luck to the kid

That guy is spewing rubbish. And he is just learning attention seeking.
Linda Ikeji is affable and and a media personality hence could be seen by everybody.

So he needed 20 mill and got 200 mil. Who would give him that kind of money at 18 when he probably had not managed even a 100k biz. What experience doea he have to manage 200 mil. And the person won't take interests abi?

And he is still looking for more investors after getting ×10 of what he wanted.

Ge will return 10bn in 2yrs with 20mil indeed in nigeria with cost of running biz and vagaries associated with bizness in a capricious country.

We can just believe anything in naija. That's the same way they said one moribund resort in Bauchi had 3m pee night rooms.

Did anyone ask for your opinion? Mumu keyboard warrior. I'm sure it's from your face me I face you toilet that you posted this. If you can't do anything with your life, that doesn't mean that others too can't. Go and get a life and stop criticising those who have one. Loser

i guess it is blinding u o. There is forking money lying around in Nigeria doing NOTHING. Just come up with something that you can offer them and you will see them chasing you.

Someone once said, people don't lack money. Just come up with something very very very appetising and watch them borrow money because they are salivating and can't resist the savoury of your offer.


Trust me, there is money out there. Tomorrow will make it week 2 that we have been trying to negotiate and strike a deal with some guys. The money is very much available to execute the deal... profit would be good too.

Even after losing millions to MMM, crazy cash is lying fallow in banks across the country.

It's true and we all shouldn't forget to patent/copyright and protect our ideas in the Capital/Fund Seeking process.

There're also idea-stealing crocodiles out there posing as Venture Capitalists.

I don't confer with dolts and wouldn't deign to do it now. You posted that tosh above and expected discerning minds to believe you. I know only few nairalanders are smart as has been noted elsewhere, hence the majority will believe you.

Again, why are you creating so many accounts and talking about this same guy if there isn't more than meets the eye.

Hi Robotix.

I have a viable importation business that needs some more funds to increase profitability.

Please, do you mind linking me up to some of your connects or giving me direction to strike up a business deal?

Yes bro!

He was older than me with good 4years! But the age was no barrier at all. Our interests of being financial free was what brought us together.

Meanwhile, bro, do u mind linking me up to someone who would be interested in investing in an importation business?

Spot a grammatical clanger and I would retract my statements. I am an English language pundit and not apologetic about that.

congrats

to him but you see why 18year old need sense/an adult around



its really not every detail you post o social media



if the "billionaires" dont come through or if someone kills/kidnaps him out of the mumuness of thinking he has the money already who do we blame



keep details private.....
I've been there done that. I proposed beautiful ideas to a rich man,thinking it would make me become a multi millionaire,the ideas were way better than this guys,the man only promised me but I thought it was too sure for me that nothing can stop him from financing until he came up with excuses. only God doesn't promise and fail. how are we sure the billionaires have given him the money? and how are we sure the ideas wouldn't turn into mere child's play by the time they get home and rethink . is 200million that easy to fork out to a young individual? let's wait and see though

Luck is the word of a loser.
More than working, you need ideas. Look for ways to implement your ideas and you'll achieve a feat so great that an 'ordinary' will call it LUCK.
God bless you guy. You spoke my mind. His comment is just a funny one.

you're in point bro. Nigerians are very gullible and believe anything. who would give 200m to someone that has never handled a common 50k naira biz. no matter how brilliant the idea seems to be,it would look like some virtual kiddy game to those so called investors by the time they rethink it. raw cash is not that easy to fork out even to organized companies not to talk of an 18 year old boy

There may be truth somewhere. It is easy for Linda Ikeji to deny him, isn't it? More so, for 18 years to have the time to apply for verification of his account speaks a lot about his mentality. Are you verified on twitter?
