How Africans Stay Poor:
Religion
Africans are told to give 10% to the church because God will bless them. But they are told to pray for God to multiply their money. God only answer the prayer of the Pastor though, through the 10% he collects from thousands of people while the rest must keep praying.
I hope people are really not doing this. But if you do let me show you how much you are really losing:
If you earn N50,000 per month and gives 10% to the church consistency, that is N5,000. That money when invested and compounded over 16 years will yield N19.4 million with just 25% yearly returns. In Africa this is very possible.
If you earn N100,000 a month with N10,000 going to the church monthly then you are N38,000,000 poorer after 16 years. Yes, that is N38 million. Now when you have millions of people losing such money to religion in 16% years no wonder Africans remains poor. WAIT UP.

Exactly. That would be robbery.

Convincing people to pay you a percent of their salary every month, now thats a scam. I wonder who died and made these men God's accountants. Definitely not Jesus.
