This is the individual who inspired MMM and other Ponzi scheme creators. Although he caused a lot of suffering to those driven by greed, one thing is certain: he made history as the first person to create a Ponzi scheme, and he will always be remembered. Good or bad history an hostory

Nigeria is one type of country that countless times, those who sacrificed and toiled do not receive any reward. When they report issue to police or court case, justice is denied them.
Everyone has heard this news and as such people have lost faith in hard work.
They will just think, "After all, you that worked hard, what did you gain?"

This is the reason why people just prefer scams instead.
Don't forget that Nigeria used hIs hand to build this National theatre as a symbol of unity.
The building went to waste shortly after. Symbolising disunity.
Now it has be repaired but still not up to its former capacity, neither is it being used. - Symbolising confusion in the nation.

Ponzi might be international.

But in Nigeria, we had 'Umana Umana' The scheme is still called Umana Umana in SE and SS of Nigeria.


Mr. Umana was our own Ponzi.

Are banks not legalized ponzi schemes? Can banks pay back their depositors at a stretch without going bankrupt?

Even the first Ponzi scheme was proven to be a scam and yet, 100 years later, people still fall for it.
