A family I know has a thriving corn farm. There are unemployed females and males in the house. I also noticed that there is a huge market for pap, a byproduct of corn around the neighborhood.

The issue here is that the man of the house has refused to invest in pap business or encourage any of the other house member to delve into pap business. They sell their huge corn reserve like that often and spend the proceed, but lately they have been struggling financially, yet the man of the house refuses to create the pap business seeing that he has corn.
I reasoned within myself that if the man should sell/pass the corn to his household for onward processing into pap, there will be profit from the pap business to support them financially.

Please house(Nairalanders) what do you think of this man or rather what should I tell him to make him wake up and do the needful? Advise me.

I hereby invite all my followers to help share this post. Pls help the thread hit front page without me mentioning Lalasticlala or Seun or Mynd44.

Let the man share the maize into 2 places. One to be sold, the other for pap. At the end of the day, let stock be taken and let him see the one which is more profitable.

If he refuses, leave him alone. Some people have an unbreakable pact with stupidity and poverty.

The children should talk to any of their father's friends/relatives which he respects so much and explain the profit part of the pap to him..

Perhaps, the maize farm may not be on a large scale.........Whole maize is profitable. If it is a sustainable business as claimed by Op, no point been financially down

discuss with the man and know his reasons

Let the unemployed females and males in the house team up and buy off a bag from the man and process it themselves.

They don't have the money to do that, only the housemaster has the power to do that and delay payment in exchange for more funds into his household.

I think you should take the lead and so they can see how lucrative it is. Then they'll follow suit. You know some people only wake up to a biz idea after someone else starts doing it.
