Mine is when I finished 300k I had without any investment. That money could have done a lot for me but I finished it on consumables and today broke again. I could have invested that money on mini importation, learning digital skills and so on. When I look back today, I can only imagine how stupid I was. I know this has happened to so many people.

It was in high school when I manage save like 5k then. I went to Oshodi to buy a phone, and one of those boys standing on the street advertised his phone to me for even 3x cheaper than the price. I was like mehn, this is scam. Na me you wan sell fufu for, you are mad. grin I knew this type of scam so I ignored.

But again, he persisted and I decided to just check it out and said to myself, how can he scam me when I'm not even ignorant of the trick? So I followed him to an open secure place and he gave me the phone to operate. I opened it to be sure it has not been overworked inside, checked the screws and battery and it seems good and genuine. He said its 5k (a 15k phone minimum), I believed he stoled it and even if I was hiding my excitement to get such a big phone for such a cheap price, I still priced it to 3500 naira, and he grudgingly agreed, telling me its because its the first time and he wanted to make me a customer. I was soooo happy.

He remove his sim, switched off and packaged the phone, gave it to me but I refused, I said he should turn it on, let me be sure he gave me the right phone. He did and right in front of my eyes, gave me the phone and he told me to leave quickly that agberos would want to collect money if they saw we are doing business, so as a sharp guy that just secured a cheap ass price of a big phone, I bounced off happily.

I was on my way home when I slipped my hands into my pocket to feel my new phone and alas, it was sticky and gummy, it was like a bomb exploded in my chest, i took my hand without the phone and it was smelling fufu fufu, alas, I took the phone out and as suspected, it was stuffed with fufu in it. Heaven and hell could not contain my anger that day. I was so angry and felt soo stupid that I went back to search for the guy with a friend to beat him public style, but he is no where to be found. Even the shop we did business at denied knowing him. Up till this day, I can't tell if it was juju or I'm just being stupid, non-attentive or all of the above.

I'm not even angry about the scam, the pain is that I was scam with my eyes fully open and being prepared not to get scammed. All my defenses was nothing in the hands of this scam artist. Since that day, I realise there are areas that where my sense end, others own just begin from there. A whole lagos breed nigga like me got scammed. So damn painful. So yea, when I think of that event I feel really stupid.

One day buda discovered buda could whistle, and not only whistle, but make mouth anyhow buda liked and whistle.

buda was very popular without this new found skill, being one of only two black kids in buda's school, but buda's fame went megasuperhyper in the playground when everyone heard buda whistle.

After play and back in class, buda's classmates told teacher about buda's new found whistling skill, which she asked buda to come display in front of class.

So there's buda, very proud of buda's self making mouth this way and making mouth that way and almost standing buda on buda's head as buda whistled in front of the class for like five minutes till buda's mouth began to hurt.

When buda finally tired and stopped, teacher said, "That's not whistling! That's screaming!" And that was how buda's fifteen minutes of fame in Carleton Nursery London N7 turned to buda's shame.

buda was 4 years old and was taught the lesson of hubris. But I bet you wouldn't notice considering buda is still such an arrogant fuq. But what buda learnt was to ask and knock and seek to know with all buda's heart and soul and mind and being and still give space that buda might not really know, which is why buda could be a seeking atheist who finally did find God. Or more accurately, an understanding of that which is called God, since it's a work in progress.
