Aestheticsdude:

Is it lucrative? I was thinking of going into the biz too
It is, if you go into wholesales and you did u take time to survey ur business location.

My business location also gave me a lot of headache; I forgot to include that in my initial response.

Purchasing a laptop in order to get myself trained for Programming and graphics design buh along the line the laptop got faulty and there isn't money to repair it again.

I was so desperate to have some cash in my purse due to the state I was then, had to sell the laptop in order to get means end. Till now, I haven't even reached 20% of acquiring the knowledge.

So painful!

Hummm..I'm into Prov nd food stuffs nd I sell in student area I was doing fine before the lockdown, lockdown came all the student traveled, it Was just the villagers so I stopped the provision I focused on the food stuffs part


I start buying bag of garri den it was 27,000,bag of rice semo and the likes..On this faithful day Ibought two bags of rice not knowing one was good the other one is full of sand it was when I got to shop I noticed I loosed 22k,

During the lock down I manage to open, from where I am to the market is 250naira but because of the lock down I take bike which will cost me 1k to meet up because of the curfew,initially when I'm going back I spend 1200 on tfare but due to the lockdown I spend 3k 4k,there was a time I got stranded.it continues nd everything started going down, I still have to pay for my shop rent embarassed hummm
I started doing peanut using my hand cos I can't afford the machine but groundnut and floor went up even nylon is very expensive I had to stop.
This year I'm trying to pash it up..started doing little contribution I was able to stand little by little,now food stuffs is extremely expensive we buy vegetable oil 10,500 its not 26000, semo 10kg is now double compared to the amount we used to buy,everything is now too expensive,before if with 30k I will buy enof but now with 60k I won't be able to buy anything because I'll want to cover everything..plus sales is down dull lately..

hum mm going business its not easy at all,,there's limit to what I eat..I can't make my hair frequently to cut expenses down,,once I go broke no body will even borrow me money ,I'm broke now sef even the ones that want to borrow will want to get down with me..hmmmm

Bought a Nigerian used Honda baby boy some years ago for cab business but it nearly took my life, no day I take it out that I don't get to spend at least 4k on it. Sold it half the amount I bought it at last when it appears it was either going to be my life or the car's, well I chose my life.

The Inflation levels in nigeria is out of this world. Can you imagine a Country with double digits inflation/devaluation rate for almost over a Decade. Whereas in Germany, the coupon and yield of a 10 year Bond is negative.

When the mechanic knows you are a new car owner, that's how it ends with an old car.

My first Honda did the same even after changing engine. I sold it to my mechanic yet he drove it for many years and resold it.

Are you surprised ??
