10. Advise section
- [ ] It takes approximately three years for an average person to move from Apprentice stage to Subcontractor stage. In your fourth year, you will start working on your business idea (after three years in the industry. You should have discovered a low competition business opportunity in the industry. There's enough for everybody) provided you have done due diligence to your hustle.
- [ ] At this stage you start looking for Capital/finance to push your idea(or opportunity you have discovered)
- [ ] Think of it as after doing your bsc in the school of formal education, you will then do another bsc in the school of informal education (aka school of the streets, school of life, school of hustle, school of smartness, choose your poison)
- [ ] If you have proper connections, this four years can be reduced to one year, 6 months or even one month. Money is everything bro. Should Anybody tell you different, smack him.
- [ ] If you want accelerated learning, you don't want to spend four years. You are looking for a sharp sharp kind of learning. How does one week sound to you? I can teach you the actual secrets in one week and even be your lifelong consultant if you are smart enough.

11. Who am I?
- [ ] Michael ugboko
- [ ] Studied architecture, finished school, cleared my papers, abandoned my degree and my nysc, why? I was looking for a way to drop out safely. All my role models are drop outs. I didn't want a plan b or a job to fall back to. I wanted the hustle to be do or die. Thank God I did. There were times things got really rough, if I had my degree I would have jumped straight into employment. And my startup, luxartisan would have become one of the numerous stories of failed startups. Lol.
- [ ] Anyway I finished from the school of the streets. Went back to get my degree, did my nysc, masters, and we're still writing the story. I'm way ahead of my classmates in uni days(unn). No offense. I only use them as a yard stick to measure my success.
- [ ] I have cracked the code to successful online business, trained 10 young men to become subcontractors. Some where my classmates in uni. They are all super grateful. I started from zero literally(my first online ad, I posted with a friend's phone), I'm not 100 yet but I'm definitely way ahead of my peers.
- [ ] Life is a game I know, but I only play games with foes. If you want to be my business partner, you have to be rational and straight to the point. No time.
- [ ] Thank you and God bless your hustle.
