Life is indeed not a bed of roses. We all had dreams and aspirations when we were younger, but not all of them were actualized. However, in this article, we will share with you the top 5 disappointments people often face in life.

Top 5 Disappointments People Often Face In Life

#1. Education

Education is one of the disappointments people often face in life. There are several people out there who had dreams of going to a first generation Federal University but end up going to a State Polytechnic.

Furthermore, I know of several who dreamt of becoming medical doctors but due to admission frustration and other factors beyond their control, they ended up studying animal science, zoology, biology education, Agricultural economic etc.

#2. Life After School

During our undergraduate days, we all had dreams on where we are going to work. As a matter of fact, some of us believed we were going to work in top-notch multinational corporations, oil and gas firms etc.

Unfortunately, life happens and here we are struggling for survival in a one-man business, working as contract staff in banks and some become entrepreneurs as last resort.

#3. Marriage

Marriage is one of the most common disappointments people often face in life. We all dreamt of marrying the best spouse who will give us a happy home. Sadly, 45 percent of this dream never came to past as some people ended up marrying the wrong person.

#4. Child Birth

After marriage couples sometimes look forward to having kids almost immediately. Sometimes, the kids don’t come as expected. Some may spend years waiting for God’s miracle to have children, while others get kids almost immediately. This is one of the disappointment couples often face after marriage.

#5. Retirement

Retirement is also among the disappointments people often face in life. Some people have dreams of building a beautiful house in the countryside and move there after retirement. As a matter of fact, they dream to have fun, spend time by the beach and many more.

Sadly, most people will end up being bored and lonely after retirement.

Another disappointment is after reading several motivational books for motivations and inspirations, you still couldn't get anything. The best motivator is not any bullshit book anywhere. If you can't motivate yourself no one and nothing can.

True bro though I'll just point out that Nairaland is not that bad coz like everything else in existence it does have its merits and demerits. Education is great though we've turned it to something else in this country. The way many Nigerians behave, especially the chest thumping and so-called educated ones always makes me wonder why they bother themselves getting educated in the first place. Here in this country, we only study to write on books and boast instead providing future and immediate solutions to our cultural, political and socioeconomic problems. And as for marriage and bearing of children, both are so highly overrated, especially the former. This is why more people keep falling out of marriage as much as they keep on marrying on Saturdays. People are pretending to be holy by forcing themselves into marital obligations coz of what ordinary people like them will say, forgetting in life that wether you follow the crowd or not you are still the one facing your music alone at the end. That's why we have secret cheaters all over the place coz we love pretending a lot at all levels of our lives as people of a nation.
BedLam:
Mediocre. Marriage, children and formal education doesn't make anyone anymore. People adopt kids and the love is there. People don't even marry anymore.

Education is way too overrated that companies are beginning to hire people without degrees. Go figure. Nairaland is a joke and will always be.

God bless the guy who posted this.

Education na scam.
Marriage na scam.
Life after school na scam.
Child birth na scam.
Retirement na the biggest scam.

Education is overrated in Nigeria because at the end of the day what you know is mostly self taught.
How you earn a living will be different from what you learnt in school.

Life after a school is depressing. Trust me you need to be ready mentally for the naija aspect of reality. Especially if you dey Lagos. Na die

Marriage at a early age without planning na scam.
You will enter a terrible state in your life if you are not really prepared for it. Responsibilities upon responsibilities await you.

Child birth na wahala. Most people give birth to kids they didn't plan for and can't take care of.
Meaning the pickin go enter suffering and hardship mode.

Retirement na him worst pass. When you don old finish way body no fit move. Na die. One head of retirement or pension go just chop your money. Or if you open business way you no fit supervise due to old age. Na die oo

Just plan for all this to avoid unnecessary sympathy and story that touch.
Cause people will use your story as an example if it turns out bad.

That your point one is thrash!! What is wrong with going to polytechnic and what is wrong with all those courses you listed? This is a country that lack technical manpower yet we look down on polytechnic education. A country where even somebody that studied Yoruba language and work in a bank. And what is even all the noise about education and certificate?

oh oh, I can't wear that, would have patronised u.

I doubt u are marketing it well cos it seems to be selling well among ladies.

If u have male stuff, share so I can patronize u and pls don't give up, business and entrepreneurship success comes with consistency and perseverance.

The success don't come quick like paid job, but never u give up OK.

God will bless your handwork, don't worry, just a matter of time.

Stay blessed

. Nairaland is a joke and will always be .

I don't think you have any idea of what you are saying, who told you that Nairaland is a joke? Or is it because you only visit the front page and other unproductive threads. Let me tell you Nairaland is the best online forum in Nigeria and believe it or not it is one of the greatest things to have ever happened to Nigeriansc and the youth in particular. There are so many educative, and product threads that you can visit where you can learn a lot of things ranging from skills to knowledge about business, health, technology and so on. So please before you make any unhealthy comments about something first of have a rational and detailed information about it

Entrepreneurship should be struck out of that list. It's in some people's genes. Give them the highest paying jobs, they'd always eventually find their way back 'home'. It's about passion, not frustration.

That education sector na real scam. I hoped I'd graduate with at least 2-1 but because of a silly and bias lecturer who I refused to bribe fvcked me up more than once in his course. I went to his office to ask him why I got such low score, his dumb reply was " what you know is different from our marking scheme". And I was like so if I don't write exactly what is in your hand out, it is void. I just smh.

Thanks to mtn night plan + youtube tutorials, I'm sharpening my web programming skills by the day.
