Op you are a real niigga, damn real niigga
My motto in this life is "as long as I can not afford it, I don't need it, and if I can't afford it twice, I can't afford it"
Before I go fit buy phone of 200k, I go make sure say I get over 500k in my account, as a guy man like this, I get sure plugs for yaba where I dey buy okrika wears from him hand, when I wash and tidy am well with nice perf, u no fit know say na okrika, same as shoes, I no fit buy shoes above 8k presently, not that i don't have such money in my account, but I feel it's worthless to buy shoes of 8k when I have 50k in my account, I still have house rent to pay, NEPA bills to sort, gas to fill, fridge to fill, food to buy etc so why waste hard resources on things that doesn't really matter in the scheme of things
The basic goal is to cover unclothedness, if your Prada na 30k, he get shoes of 7k wey I go buy, our two go measure up squarely.
In this life, contentment in every stage of your life is bliss, there was a time I couldn't even afford a pair of jeans, now if I want to buy 5 once I will, na matter of time, no rush
I know of people who rush go buy iphone 11 some months ago, he's looking for who to buy it cheaper now, cos owu don blow him Papa
When I been wan rent house, I drew a budget, I wanted a self con, cos I cherish my privacy, it was the agent that I contacted that gave me scope, he asked if I have plans to get married soon, I Said no, he said why don't you just get a single room and just save money, since you go out every day to work and come back in the evening to sleep, why waste money on house when you won't be at home for a very long, I took the advice, if not I for borrow money join my saving to rent a self con, when it's time to pay next year I will be running around lmao.
At the same I have age mates living in duplex in lekki, serviced apartments in ikorodu etc, but na their time, I don't need to worry my self much, cos there are people who would give everything to have my place too, abi no be people dey sleep under bridge and inside shops for markets  1 Like |

As a guy work hard and live a nice life. Stop eyeing people's money. Stop bothering about people using iPhones and travelling to fucking Dubai. I'm not saying iPhones are bad, I personally love iPhones, but just fvvcking worry about some things until you can afford it. As long as you're broke iPhones are overrated. Learn how to despise things you can't afford. Worshiping money is not gonna make you rich bro, it's only gonna cause depression.
Try balance your life small. You need a little bit of everything. No be say you get only 500k for your hand you wan buy iPhone 12. You dey try to compete with Davido way don already balance im life. That's why you fucking unhappy. I feel balance is key to happiness you need a little bit of everything.
This life eh, you gats dey sure of basic needs as a human being that's food, shelter and clothing before you add up extra things. Try dey live your life to scale.
No ever dey try compete for this money spending thing because you no go ever win I promise you.
Boys go always get money pass you. You
Me way dey talk this things no be say I perfect sha. But as I dey advice others, I dey take style they advice myself by extension.
And abeg try dey enjoy by budget, you no fit afford Dubai yet no mean say you no fit go vacation. Go to Ghana, go to Kenya, if that wan too much, go to another state in Nigeria. Last last na still vacation. There are still beautiful places in Nigeria you haven't seen yet. Don't deprive yourself of vacation because e no fit afford the expensive ones, the Instagram friendly ones.
Even the Nigeria way no dey like America sef, you never still enjoy am finish.

True I have had millions in my bank account for years but I no use iPhone 12 Pro Max until the time in my life when my 1 week pay could buy it.
It’s foolish saving for a whole year of your life only to use it to buy a phone, what if it gets stolen? Can you mentor me please? Not because of iPhone but I want to be comfortable as a student with no support. I promise to be loyal too. |
