Wrong Job

I tell you. Being broke is a combination of so many factors, likewise being rich. God help us all.

Even after successfully avoiding the 3 listed there the chase for the next million makes one feel broke.

Money is like climbing a tower with no end in sight. The first day I made 10k many years ago thought i had arrived. Now i make much much more but still chase more like a dog after a b.itch on heat.

As long as you remain in Nigeria, in its current state of affairs, you are broke.

How many Nigerians multi-task? How many Nigerians have over N500k in a savings account? How many have investment accounts? How many bought real estate? How many have been scammed while trying to invest in real estate?

If I continue asking relevant questions you will realize that a Zoo is better than Nigeria.

The 3 reasons why YOU are always broke


1. You're saving money instead of investing.

Saving money doesn't make anyone rich, in short the only people who get rich from your savings are the banks.

This is why they charge you for pulling money out and also charge you for saving with them.

The right thing to do is invest. When you have little money, invest in yourself. Take courses and programs that will boost your skills, knowledge and mental prowess.

Education never stops.

When you have a lot of money invest in opportunities as well such as cryptocurrency, stocks and bonds.

Real estate is a surefire way to go. But always start with self investment.

2.You buy liabilities instead of assets.

In Ibadan where I stay a lot of people spend money partying. It's the culture.

People spend money on clothes, shoes and different stuff that they don't really need.

To achieve a life of financial freedom some part of your money should be spent on buying assets instead of liabilities.

Assets are what will fund your dreams. Liabilities make you feel good but they do not in any way contribute to your dreams.

Make it a habit to spend more on assets.


3. You have only one source of Income

This is the biggest reason why most people are broke.

They rely on only one source of money and when that source dries up they already in deep problem.

It is said that the average millionaire has about 7 streams of income. While this isn't true for everyone,

Most millionaires will have between 3 to 5.

If you want to have financial freedom, learn to develop other sources of income.
No job how can I save?

The hustle we do,we use it to feed

After so many years after graduating,so many interviews gone and nothing comes out

U want to learn a trade,or programing with wat Money?

Nice write up bro,but not for now till I get there
Re: Three Reasons Why You Are Always Broke by Diligent1(f): 12:18pm On Dec 04, 2021
It is not easy when I was earning N30,000 monthly as a graduate which could not sustain me and my children, I took a bold step I resigned. Hoping that I will have time to search for job and get a better offer. Since 2 months plus now I don't suffer, to find food to eat is very add.
I am still searching for the job but none is coming right now, I don't even know how we are going to do this Xmas. I hope everything is fine before the end of this month. I don't want to development hypertension because my nose they block sometimes.

You have valid points, but how would someone who earns 15k lipsrsealed monthly save not to talk of investing?
Sometimes you have to borrow to self invest.

It starts from self investing

No it's not.

It's for people who want to have money and retire Young and Rich

It's a process.

Most people think you blow. It's not by blowing.

It's by growing rich.. and it's a long and sometimes painful process of trying, failing and learning.

From all you have written so far,it's obvious ,you think stealing and getting rich over night without productivity of business is richness.Few Nigerian are rich and the country remains a country with potentials and not a rich country.

No production is taking place here ,there are few factories here.In a normal. country apart from inheritance,does are the people that get rich ,Not stealing and pretending to be rich with stolen money.Collecting rent from all the houses you have bought with proceeds make you rich ,but you are actually poor and can only get respect among poor people.
