feelamong: Hello brother, I really appreciate you a lot. I did not know anything about NTB until I found this sub. Before then, I was just doing fixed deposit. Like I said earlier no need to reveal anything here but I want you to know that financially you have liberated so many folks with this sub myself included. That’s why I want us to keep your spirit alive here for our younger generation. Again few years ago you mentioned crypto currency on this sub some of us dismissed you and called crypto a scam. You were not going to give up because you actually started a thread on Bitcoin. I followed you and started buying BTC, ETH and few other alts. I use Binance and Coinbase but I store them in hard wallets. I have seen the lows and the highs of crypto. I am a hodlor but when BTC or ETH pamps, I sell and put the gain into NTB. Thank you again for spreading your knowledge and for empowering so many of us. In 2012 you had a vision to financially empower young Nigerians and I can say you have succeeded. English philosopher Francis Bacon said ‘Knowledge is power’. In appreciation and in your honor , I would like to make a small donation in ETH to a charity that you support. I would appreciate if send me your ETH addresss. God bless. 18 Likes |

deepwater: Thanks for bringing up my previous posts. I am glad you saved me the time of having to respond to a friend who earlier today said that I have not been part of the discussion on this sub. I ignored him but I am glad you responded on my behalf. I appreciate it. I do not see any contradiction(s) in my previous posts and today's. I acknowledged today that I have been one of those telling noobs to read previous pages when they ask questions. My reasoning today is, why do we tell noobs to read previous pages when they ask questions yet we waste time talking about our net worth. When I used the plural pronoun 'we', it meant myself included. I post sparingly on social media and some of them I am proud of and some I am not. For your information, I save all my social media posts. So spare yourself the headache of bringing them up for me. “Guy no allow me reason you mata o, cus I go enter you prapra!” - I could not respond to this because I do not know what you are talking about but I hope you have a beautiful night. God bless 1 Like |

I have been thinking of the shortest way possible to say this so let me try. To those saying we are digressing here and people are showing off their net worth, please you are wrong. As someone who came on board when this page was still at 300 and read pretty much 100 pages, and never missed a page from 300 till the current page, I can confidently say that I haven't noticed anyone mention figures here when it wasn't absolutely necessary and related to the topic. Sometimes it is good to mention figures in order to get people motivated (I would give examples but I want to keep this short). Edit: on second thoughts, for example when I said my father with over 4 billion Naira still works, it wasn't to brag on a faceless forum. Rather it was to motivate that young man that 1.7m is not enough reason to get unmotivated to work I think the people who get mad here are people who feel they cannot comment the same thing and mean it. For example, when Ahiboilandgas comments about his trucks, I wanna say "abeg go sit down everytime truck truck". But instead, I get motivated and tell myself that someday I might be able to brag like him (note that I am not saying he brags. Please read this with a mature mind). Anyways my point is, rather than hate on people here for commenting and trying to inspire you, let their successes inspire and motivate you to get up at 4am like I did this morning. 12 Likes |

Time to react: this forum is faceless. I change my username because it won't let me inspire others with facts about my life. With my new username, I come here to share my stories to motivate not only you guys but my humble self. I strive to be like God, when I speak I definitely try within my reach to make it come to pass. You definitely don't know me so why would one think am bragging. I personally don't know and don't want to know anyone here, reason I don't respond to mails from this forum. I also get inspired when I hear success stories, so kindly don't stop the "brag" even if it isn't truth. Am still that billionaire aspirant. 4 Likes |

Viqtour:Thank you my brother. Many big guys here have really inspired us - the newbies. I see no reason why this act of giving back to Nairaland so that others can benefit is seeing as bragging in some quarters. I have never heard of treasure bills in my life not until I entered this thread. I read a few pages and I picked some names and I read most of their comments to learn more and I am happy I did that. Unfortunately, one or two persons that I attacked on this thread based on political differences have made a lot of positive contributions here; I hope these people will still do something here that will stimulate me to commend them and also apologize. From this same thread, I learnt about having dollar account which I also opened a domiciliary account and I saved my first upfront interest after converting to dollar. Now I am researching on bitcoin and when I am ready i will also have some holdings in bitcoins. Let them call it bragging, some of us are learning and saving money from the bragging. Call them kids, na you sabi! The age of Metuselah can never be equalled to the wisdom of Solomon. This same thread, I read about bureau de change, I am discussing with some of my rich friends to try it since they have money. Trucking/Haulage business nko; na on this thread and I am also telling my friends to study the business to see if we can venture into it. Barrytone:Thank you very much sir for encouraging us to learn how to save money and also make interest. This is a faceless group and I don't see how anybody should be scared to share some money making ventures with us. Only a poor person sees this as bragging. Please our treasury bills mentors, don't be discouraged, continue your good work. I want to be hearing good news and not these Nay Sayers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on Commercial Papers What are Commercial Papers? Commercial Papers (“CPs”) are unsecured short-term debt instruments issued by corporates to get funds from the public (private individuals, institutional investors, non-governmental organisations, religious bodies etc.) to meet short-term debt obligations such as working capital needs. How do Commercial Papers work? CPs are similar to Treasury bills (“T-Bills”) because they are issued at discount rates, which may be paid upfront or capitalized. For instance, an investor could choose to receive N1m in the future (maturity amount/face value), which would require an ‘upfront’ investment below that face value (for instance N980,000 for a 90-day instrument at 8.0%), or could choose to invest N1m today to receive a ‘capitalized’ return above the investment amount (for instance N1.02m for a 90-day instrument at 8.0%). What is a True Yield? The ‘true yield’ is the effective return on investment (ROI). Using a simplified example, if an investor wants to receive N100,000 after a one-year period (365-days) and chooses to invest in a discounted instrument which is offered at a rate of 10%, the investor will pay a discounted value of N90,000 to receive N100,000 at maturity. The true yield on that investment is not 10.0%. It is in fact 11.1%, calculated as return received as against the initial investment (N10,000/N90,000). This represents the return to the investor if the instrument is held to maturity. The discount rate is used to calculate the present value of an investment, which differs from the yield on an investment. Primary and Secondary Market for Commercial Papers A CP can be purchased either in a primary or secondary market. The primary market is where investors buy financial instruments at issuance, while in the secondary market, investors trade (i.e. buy and sell) instruments purchased at primary market issuances. The minimum purchase amount in the primary market may vary depending on the issue size. However, the minimum limit is typically set at N5m, while in the secondary market there are no standard lot sizes, but a minimum of N100m should be prepared for any purchase. The major limitation for the secondary market trading of commercial papers is the illiquidity within the market, given that purchasers of these instruments typically only sell instruments in large volume sizes. Consequently, purchasing CPs is easier in the primary market. What is the Tenor? CPs are issued for time periods which match the issuer’s needs, with minimum and maximum tenors of 15 days and 270 days respectively. What is a Commercial Paper Auction? In the primary market, the issuer through an Issuing House sells to the market, through a fixed price subscription. Here, market participants signal interest in the issue and commit to purchasing volume sizes over an ‘offer period’ – which typically lasts only a few days. This process is so because the rate on the issuance is fixed prior to offer to the market. This is unlike the T-Bills primary market issuances which are held in an auction format and investors are allowed to state the yields at which they would be willing to invest. What do I Benefit from Investing in Commercial Papers? While CPs in Nigeria are typically issued by blue-chip corporates with impressive track records of financial performance, this does not eliminate credit risk. The discount rate on the CP is usually reflective of the credit rating of the issuer, which may be gleaned from the magnitude of the difference between the discount rate on a T-Bill with similar maturity and the CP being issued. Consequently, CPs offer investors the opportunity to purchase better yielding instruments than available on risk-free instruments, if they are willing to take the calculated risk. How are Commercial Papers different from Treasury Bills? CPs have similar characteristics to T-Bills, relating to the mode of pricing. However, that is where the similarities end. T-Bills are usually issued by the government through the CBN at auctions which are typically held fortnightly, for fixed tenors of 91-days, 182-days, and 364-days. Also, the minimum volume to participate in the T-Bills primary market auctions is N50,001,000.0, while secondary markets are very active and flexible relative to lot sizes. Can I sell before Maturity? Yes, you can sell CPs before maturity. A major constraint of selling CPs, however, is illiquidity and size of the minimum tradeable volume. Also, the price at which you sell depends on the prevailing interest rate at the time. Can I rollover my CP Investment? Usually, the answer is no. This is because a CP issuance is not a periodic auction which provides certainty of another CP investment opportunity. This, however, does not rule out the possibility of a CP investment opportunity at maturity. Nevertheless, when a CP investment matures, it can be rolled over into another money market or fixed income investment such as T-Bills and Bonds. What are the Other Benefits of Commercial Paper? Interest earned is tax-exempt Since certificates are issued for CP investments, they can be used as collateral or as evidence of investment for visa application. How Can I Buy Commercial Papers?

I wanted to reply him writing an epistle on self motivation and setting financial goals in life until I saw your perfect answer to him. I think there is a need for us in this forum to use our discretion to differentiate an honest opinion from an otherwise one. I am sure the corper you were addressing got the message.
