Guys good morrow to you all.

So it's going to be my 39th birthday next year and I still don't have one Kobo in my bank account. Still under my parents roof and no job. In a scale of 1 to 10, what are my chances of making it in life?

You are the one narrowing down your chances in life. For goodness sake, how can you be under your parent at that age and how are you coping with the happenings over there? Telling my parents to hold on to their money upon getting admission into university is one of the best decisions i have never regretted till date.

Even after graduation when all was lost after two years, I held on tenaciously to my decision and the rest is history today by God's grace.

Move bro.

If you don't have Abraham in this country what took others 5yrs to get will take you 25 years.
If at 39 you haven't achieved anything, you need to go back to the board and check what you're not doing rightly.
I was once in a similar condition until I retire from my comfort zone. I now reject the offers I desperately searched for when I graduated from school because my business pays me times four of what employers can afford to pay me.

So there's hope for you if you can leave your comfort zone.

All 35 year olds and up who have not made it have been on my mentions since because of my comment. Y'all are senseless why not accept the fact that your youth and now you will never make it. Well you might hit it but your chances have become slimmer. Don't quote me again.

“What is your plan” is the biggest question to your breakthrough as at this moment.

Please find a job or try start a business. Nothing anyone tells you here will make sense until you make effort.

You make me laugh because you lie to l
yourself, young man the road to sincere and upright success is very narrow.


When you depend you limit Your innate capabilities and potentials as a God on earth, the abundance of what you can have is in the whole wide world, whether it is a negative or positive dream, the way the world may see it, it can always be achieved with a price, now if you depend on your government who is confused, perplexed and under informed about why, how and when the world was formed you will be stuck in a box of time space.

Know this nobody can create your reality better than you because you are the only God on earth.
Read through all I said ... They are all facts but here u are fishing out unintelligent sermon like a motivational speaker that uses bycicle...
Let me give u the order.
...God
.... Government
..... Parents
......You.

In this order,u r the least...
God decide if u r born black or white and by whose parent.
Ur government decide and influence ur environment and growth.
Ur parents decide how they train u up...
At age 18 and above u start to thinker individually as adult...
If u like be speaking empty English

I got the contact of my secondary school friend in Lagos and I started riding Okada around Egbeda, EJigbo, Ikotun, etc. They were six in a room when I joined them.

So, before I wrote my last paper in any semester, I have already packed my belongings because that would be the day when I would get to Lagos. Besides, there would be no food to eat if I decide to stay longer.

Upon every resumption, I will work for additional one week before I would join my mates in school. I remember December 31st 2017-January 2nd 2018, I worked non-stop and I celebrated it while transporting passengers.

You see, moving away from you parent terrain will give you much sense of responsibility and you will be more inclined to break even.

What else is he supposed to measure it by?

Money is what you need to live life effectively.

If you disagree, pls educate me.. with all due respect.
It is part of what is needed to enjoy life, money is a means to an end. Having more of it or having less of it at a particular point in time doesn't make you more or less successful.

But that's what and how our society measures success.

Personally in terms of money, I look at it from being comfortable than having plenty money but comfort is relative for everyone

Success to me is the impact you make at every point in your life and where you end up at the end of it all as well as the impact you make at every point in other people's lives.

Basically, if we look at the milestones that we have reached in our lives, that to me is success.

A salary earner with zero balance in their account is not less successful. It is a case of non availability at that point in time.



Although, my religion has another definition for success.

I think it's societal conditioning.

According to the society we live in now, money is everything.

Nothing else matters.

Like that Ludacris' song: 'If you ain't got no money take ya broke a$$ home!'

It's well even in the well. Success is not determine by age. Learn a skill and sell your knowledge. I believe you use your own smartphone in writing this post. You can join Amazon KDP and make living from there without spending much. The only money you will spend on Amazon KDP is just money for internet data.

The only person that can help you is Jesus.
Confess your sins,accept him and .
Surrender all to him

To grow in faith,
Join a Christ believing church in your area and serve God in any capacity.
Live a life of holiness.
He owns no man.

Devout yourselves to praising him all the times.He would help you.
He is all sufficiency,rich in mercy.

I'm being frank with you,Jesus is the only one that can bring restoration.

Think of this,I was once like you.
Jesus saved me...
