My uncle, my mother their last born, who resides in mushin is basically who I call king of small businesses. Earning from multiple small streams that basically became an ocean of millions per year.
He really mastered the art of making money from small businesses that built his wealth from the ground up and has been a man I truly admire in terms of personal discipline and hustling spirit.
His business sense was unparalleled.

He started as a small scale electronics dealer, then made it a bit "big" in Lagos dealing in electronics, radios, TV's, DVD's, fans etc.

Now this is where his foresight then paid of big, when building his first house (which he now rents out), he constructed 2 small shops in front of his house. One was used to for petty trading, normal satchet milk, detergent, mineral and the rest. The other was used for charging phones and batteries.

He was also using his borehole for selling and supplying water to the neighbours and these "meiruwas" that push jerrycans of water in trucks and sell to people at their homes. So his generator at home was used to power the borehole, fridge in his house, another in his shop and then charge phones. His wife was handling these all these ones at home.

Few years later, lucky for him here, there was an undeveloped land close to him, underdeveloped as in; where the owner bought and abandoned. He negotiated a tiny rent amount with the owner and set up a small batcher and put football viewing centre there (later adding a bet shop) also selling cold drinks, beer buscuit etc and next to it, a big grinding mill machine for those who wanted to grind bags of corn, okpa (Bambara nut), beans and the rest. (This last one was basically his brightest idea that fetched him lots) because he was the only person in that vicinity with this big machine.

When my family visited him, we were awestruck with the range of his businesses around him.
All these became much bigger than what he was initially doing. He basically abandoned his electronics sales, leaving it in the hands of his boy. His businesses had all evolved bigly over the last 13 years. They basically own a small supermarket now. They have 3 large grinding machines.
He even grew bigger than the area he was in but he was very reluctant to leave that place because of all he had there. He married a Yoruba woman and trained their 5 children, all with these.

Seeing you guys ask what 20 million would do for someone sent my mind straight to him.

Every single small businesses he has was started with just a tiny fraction of that amount. Let me not even talk how he basically opened a palm oil processing mill for their siblings widow, my aunt in the village and solarized the borehole at our village house that is practically minting small cash for said widow.

Foresight, Discipline and patience are the key factors for wealth building.

We literally saw him go from nothing to MULTIPLE STREAMS of wealth.

Phone charging.
Water selling and distribution.
Grain grinding
Football viewing centre and bet centre.
Mini supermarket.
All small scale businesses in their own rights but which fed off each other and became very big sources of wealth for the owner.

[color=royalblue]There are tweets that you shouldn't be sharing, because it tells a lot on how you judge things

You supported Buhari. Then you come back and post a tweet that says Buhari was the problem, and not Tinubu

The same party, and the same people supporting themselves.

When Tinubu fails, you'll move on to the next wrong choice, and tell us Tinubu was the problem.

How do you do this with a straight face?[/color]
