I work in one of the best restaurants in Lagos and it is located on the island. Day in day out I get to see a lot popular faces and the not so popular faces and also the unknown faces too.

Now, my cry is the money being spent. The celebrities are not the most spenders, the unknown faces are actually the most spenders. A table of 10 people can spend up to a million Naira in less than 4 hours, just on food and drinks and smokes sometimes.

I know this because am the cashier and at the end of day when I'm collating the total sales I can't help but marvel at the amount of money spent on lisure. And if you really think about it and are honest with yourself, you'd know that that's probably the only reason you also want to make money/more money - all for that luxurious lifestyle...

I only need 500k loan with an interest of 20% by the end of the year to provide a comfortable lifestyle for my mom and siblings and somebody spends times two of that money on food and drinks in one sitting, in less than half a day, with less than 20 people! Oh lord! The irony!

this the sad but true irony of life Tonia. it's a pity
