Yeah, bought cheap whiskey and sold it to my pals who owned clubs. Made some cold hard cash from my efforts. Stopped when my dad found out, he was very livid. Had to go legit, got a 9-5 as an accountant immediately in an NGO.

And since savings is a function of income, I save from what i earn.

These days I feel a tinge of shame when i remember my claim to easy money.

I'm a 22year old lady and I made my first million July 14th last year from mini importation and my local food restaurant. It was the happiest day of my life coming from a below average background.

I have been growing it steady away from distractions and next year I plan to establish my courier service company.

The sky is the beginning for ANYBODY. My story will melt a heart of stone but that's for another day.
am in Abuja pls can I partner with you on your line most particularly the logistics

November last year, I quoted awelekiti & the10thman that I was willing to work for them..even if it would be free, maybe during the process I might make my first million..no response from any.

It wasn't painful that they ignored, it motivated me to be bigger and better.

This is October 2019 and I can't claim to be a millionaire now but I worth way way more than a million and the story is not what it used to be.

By next year December..I will update this thread with "I am now a millionaire".

Good day, starting and owning an online shop is great...as a side hustle way better!!!
I can teach you how to design and host an online store with ease using opencart **yes i mentioned it, nothing to hide** with online chat. The basic knowledge you need is understanding how to use a computer and ability to persevere.
Why pay someone to design one for you, when you can setup as many as you like.
Imagine this picture** you meet Emeka who is selling clothes and ask him to allow you snap some of the items, you could also meet Bola selling wigs and weave ons, build your shop and put up the pictures. you go into agreement with a delivery company and just sit at your day job, receive orders, chat with your clients on your mobile device and pick items from Emeka and co to deliver.
You can have as many shops as you can design, just find a niche you want to sell.
I would prefer training as a group, i have a location in surulere we can use for training.
PM for more details

I will like to join your training sir
U can send ur WhatsApp No to -08060944346

23.

Basically made it from saving my whole salary for few months. But that was possible because I made enough money from freelancing to cater for my living expenses.

I am a UX/UI designer.

19 although am broke asf right now, am 23.

mine was multiple millions I made it from bitcoin, software and domain names.

one guy from nairaland here introduced me to bitcoin back then (for free ) he was giving one eBook like that.

I learned a few thing from his book,but being the mad man that I was, I discovered a way to tipple my result and boom I was raking in bitcoin like craze.

then I hooked up with this Chinese girl on Facebook we started swaping ideas before you know it I had about 20 bitcoin. at then one bitcoin was about 200$ then some crazy sh** happend bitcoin went from 200$ to about 1000$.

I cashed out. dude, I was fucking rich. but as you already know 19years and millions are not a healthy combination.

I basically thought I was the next bill gate. it funny how success leads to success then to more success, then to a huge failure. me and my best friends, we were living lavish.

again some one from this same nairaland sold an eBook about domain name buying and selling to me.

I started trying to buy domain name, but wasn't making much (like 500$ per month) 500$ didn't mean much to me back then.

then I stumbled upon this white guy, he was also a domain name trader, he was teaching people how to buy and sell domain and software on flippa. although his course was expensive about 800$ I bought it, then I also bought a 1000$ course on digital marketing. after the taking those courses I lunched out on my own, I bought a bunch of domain names and about 4 softwares.

most of the domain name didn't sell well some didn't sell atall but 3 sold for a wopping some of 15000$ combined.

it is funny how lots of people say money can't change them I was one of those guys. but trust me after this second win, I was sure I was going to be up there with mark zuckarburg some day.

then something crazy happened, one of my 4 software gained like 3million active users. turned out the original owner of the software was from isereal, and his research was on point, isreali market really needed the software, but the guy was marketing and trying to monitize it the wrong way.

by accident I got it just right the software began marketing it self and before you know it a giant iseareli company asked me to sell it to them.

being young and dumb I didn't know how to monitize it so when I saw who was willing to pay, bam I sold it. I made a mistake though, I should have let them name a price or at least named an unrealistic price but silly me I asked for what I thought was a fair price 100000$.

they did what every good business men would do they bargained for a lower price 70k$.

I agreed bam this time even GOD couldn't stop me I was mega rich.

but like what my mentors always say when there is to much supply of money, it begins to flow to unnecessary places. I blew all the money, although most were on other ventures that later failed.

yea I spent good money on lavish lifestyle , but I wasn't that stupid, most of my money actually went into other businesses and investment but I was young and stupid so I paid for it .

I walked away with lot of experiential knowledge. at this point in my life I am trying to gain momentum again and GOD know that when I do, I'm never stopping, I'm not saying I have learned everything there is to learn, I'm saying that i have learned to do less stupid things than most people and I still think am going to be up there with the big boys although I don't want to be famous like them I don't want to be on any list.


Brother, help a brother, yours is knowledge which can not be taken. I need help

Trading Cryptos by yourself is the safest way to be sure that you are in charge of your funds but the big problem now is to know when to buy at low price and sell at highs, what to buy or what to HODL.
Am willing to share my tips with anyone who is willing to learn. The Technical and fundamentals of crypto trades.

26.

I got a job. I still struggle to save cash in my account unless there's a pressing need for that. All I do is to keep buying lands in my state capital. Each time I try to build up savings, my sister would call me that some plots of land are available for sale. Resisting this has been my greatest struggle. I have to learn how to balance my financial life. That is making investments as well as keeping savings.

bros you've done well
just be sure the lands are legit

Interesting. Made my first million by selling a property for someone. 10% of 35million was something extraordinary.
I remember expecting the transfer to my account and when I got to the bank, the Lady checked and told me my balance was N2,000. I sat down at the bank waiting and when I met her to help me check again she almost insulted me. I believe in her mind she was like why are you disturbing me for maybe one chicken change you are expecting.
I just kept my cool and sat there for almost an hour. Then I just looked at her and I guess she just decided to help me check again and the next thing I knew, she walked up to me and said sir its like your account has been credited.
From that moment she was just calling me sir and she offered that I upgrade my account from a savings to a current account and also open a business account.
My shakara that day was the bomb.

Last year by doing what I love the most, programming. Fun fact I didn't even realise I made up to that until I stopped to review how people around me think of me. A lot changed.

Hard work still pays.

23 years old.


started freelancing few years ago and I made my first 1.2 million from a single client who asked me to build him a casino website.

I also have about 3 different photo studios in 3 popular Universities in Nigeria. you all know how ladies love taking pictures just one of my studio at ekpoma edo state it earned me 800k in the first year of launching it.

I am 25 now and I've learnt a lot about making money online and offline and both have different approach in managing them but one similar thing that makes both grow is "consistency"
