Noted.

While it's good to work hard and work smart, if you don't have connections (in Nigeria), you'll need God's special grace to accomplish your dreams.
Without God's special grace which connections will you have? God's favour determines everything.

Believe this man at your own peril. There is a crime somewhere before he got to this level. Check mafia movies and you will know. Behind every successful man there is a big crime. Lessons learnt from reading books by great writers like Mario Puzo, Jeffrey Archer and Harley Chase.

Na so dangote talk say he started business with 500k...back in 1977


https://www.nairaland.com/4797286/1977-41-years-ago-dangote


You know how much 500k be back then?

Do you know how much 500k then was?

I remember in 1981 buying Mars chocolate for 50k. A Mars bar today should be around N400. So, 1981 500k could buy 1m Mars bar.

1m Mars bars today would cost 400m.

We are talking of 500k in 1977 if I'm correct. Don't be too quick to judge.

EDIT:

You were right. I just read the link.

We are actually saying the same thing!

What do you know? I lived at a time when 4 Naira drop could take you from Ikeja to Race Course, Onipan.

I probably knew the price of indomie noodles when you born.

What of 419, round tripping and cheating your old employer you worked with as a banker? There’s a reason you’re called cowboy banker.

Any thief with opportunity can accomplish what you did. Not everyone has the soul or strength to be a thIef and hardened at the same time

For Otedola to come out and say you basically cheated him out of transcorp, what of the many many you did it to that don’t have a platform? We’ll be calling out Nigerian elites, no more sweeping under the carpet. You and Dangote should be in jail

Even Otedola’s father cheated people as a Governor.
Femi used his father’s wealth and connections to build on whatever he has now.
There’s no clean billionaire anywhere in the world! . So?

Look at this guy trying to insult Otedola, just keep sending indirect insult to him, We know your type very well

Those things are not the only things that gave you success, your secret have been reveal long ago

1. Smartness
2. Cunning doings
3. Dead to conscience

This three are your major route to your self acclaimed success



Real Business Mafia within Nigeria are fully aware, so they know how to deal with you

If you want to find rich people or be connected to them, why not enquire through Google? You'll be shocked at what you learn.

One of the ways to find connections is to join a social club like Ikoyi or Island clubs.

The best way in my opinion for someone from a poor background to make connections is to deliver extraordinary good service in everything you do. A good name opens door.

My dad waa a chartered surveyor from a poor background. Yet, one of his clients was FFK's father and many influential people. They'd be recommending you to their buddies.

These guys eat up our subsidy,get tax waivers, forex discount from CBN , borrow billions of loans and cohorts write it off as bad debts. They will sell out unrealistic shares of their liquidated companies and cash out .

UBA will just enter your account and start debiting you unnecessary charges. They have arrogant staffs. Their ATM once eat my money after rolling and saying collect your money. It open and no cash come out.


These people are d enemies of Nigeria.

Then Nigeria still had direction. However, hard work and dedication pays. Even if you don't become a billionaire you won't rely on 30k propaganda allowance which can't allow you think properly.

Work smart!!


Dat's the point some are Missing here.😕

He didn't say Hardwork and Discipline MUST make you a billionaire.😒

@least, it is sure to make you live a Comfortable life. smiley
