Am in my early 20s and am the bread winner of my family at the moment.I send myself to school, I sponsor my younger brother in secondary school,I send money to my mom monthly,I bought a land already.Am schooling and working presently
Determination and discipline is the key.
I know one day, I will get the be life I have always dreamed about.So help me God

That's mind blowing, what part time work are you into that helps you make provision of all these?

Someone once said, "Don't take life too serious, because you will never get out of it alive!" In fact nobody will.

qtguru:
In my twenties I was mostly working and building life experiences, I did my hand into different things, and that they shaped the future for me, the only biggest worry to be concerned about, is work and dealing with emotional issues, the problems as you age gets bigger and devastating.

At what age did you start your coding career?

Vicas2000:
My advice for anyone (particularly male) who is in their early twenties is this:

You may not be reckoned with now (especially with females) but keep pushing..keep learning skills....gain experience in your chosen endeavour.

You will start reaping the benefit in your mid thirties and that is when you as a man fully reach your prime.

Don't feel bad that females who are your age mates are moving on....or getting things you can only imagine. Their prime is between 17 - 40. Whilst your prime as a man is between 32 - 55.

Keep building on your skills and become the best at what you do. Alongside....make sure you:

Read self improvement books

Join self improvement and build networks with societies that are forward thinking.

And take care of yourself with your meagre resources. Not spending on women.

Spend money to care for your dressing....hair....skin...eat healthy and take your grooming very serious.

Blessings!

17-35.. You dey tok 40...

At what age did you start your coding career?

secondary school, around age 16, My PS1 got stolen and I was informed that PS1 games could be played on a computer, at that time, I couldn't fanthom how that was even possible, and from there I got into emulators and eventually started researching on how emulators are made, that is how i stumbled into programming. I got into programming because of gaming initially.

Many people here are talking as if they are the custodians of knowledge. Most of you are privileged with the right parents or relatives to give you a good start.
Some of us never knew our parents, nobody to comfortably go to for material or even intellectual help.

You go to sleep each day of your life afraid that the person you're staying with can just decide to kick you out the next day. Especially if you're ambitious and intelligent but completely disadvantaged. You should be quiet let those of us in that situation talk. Thank you.

Truly, adulthood is very tough. The worries start in your 20's and graduate till you die. In your 20's you worry about getting a career. In 30's you worry about a career and starting a family. In your 40's you worry about growing the family, growing in your career and start building a legacy. In your 50's you worry about the future of your kids, life after a career, worrying if you've invested right etc. In your 60's you worry if your kids will be ok, you worry about your health etc. In essence you worry till you die.

Bottom line, you will be fine, do you best and God will take care of the future.

Quit worrying as it does not change anything
One thing that helped me early was deciding which path to take whether academia or career wise. Academia but I had no funding so decided to go for career to save up to pursue it.
Whilst doing that I am still trying to acquire relevant skill that will boast my chances of success
Additionally, if u have the desire for academic pls focus on scholarship abroad e get why

twosquare:
- Get wisdom and be intentional about getting it.

- Master the Book of Proverbs.

- Learn a high-income and scalable skill. Be patient. Don't be distracted by your mates illegally balling now.

- Avoid anything relationships with women. You won't be able to gather. Now, your focus is self development. Girls will come later. You will even see better ones than those you think are the best thing after Bournvita.

- Have a 5 - 10 years savings plan in foreign currencies which you can use in your 30s.

- Again, avoid relationships. E get why.

- Take opportunities and don't be religiously dumb. Rather be spiritual.

- Pray and pray ahead of time. Always. You will soon reap it.

- If you intend to travel out in your early 30s, start planning now.

- Have a 5 - 10 years savings plan in foreign currencies which you can use in your 30s.

Can please explain more on how to save in foreign currencies.

I’m in my mid twenties, no Dad, Sponsored myself all through my university days, currently sponsoring my 2 younger ones to Uni and Poly, you can say I’m the bread winner, provide for the family… infact I became the father of the house at 19yrs….. my mates are buying cars and traveling places, but I just want to take good care of my family first… I pray by this time next year I’m able to build house for my mum and get the fvck out of this country.

As for what I do: I’m a digital marketer

Nice step.....but the Problem here is that some of us weren't opportune to get this skills at the beginning part of our careers pursuit at the University......now I'm a fresh graduate running from pillar to post looking for what gonna earn me some money before NYSC.
I'm considering taking a Teaching job to enhance my teaching skill and I have interview on Friday (this week) because I have discovered my weak point which is lacking the ability, confidence, the zeal to stand in front of Large number of people, and which is not good for my ambition and I'm determined to turn a new leaf......so I'm trying to face my challenges step by step.
Head up.



But honestly I'm interested in learning more about this Skills of E-commerce.
How do I go about it......??
Please I need more enlightenment.

What are you learning

I'm a Data analyst/science tutor at Strictly4Data.ml
Being a tutor, you never stop learning.

afonjabreed:
I’m in my early twenties and it turns out I’ll be a year older very soon, I’ve barely had my sanity in one piece. I’m always thinking, worrying.
I know the twenties is an important, even the most vital stage in the formation of the type of shape a human future will take.
The thought of the future alone makes me keep to myself sometimes, because I’m always thinking, planning, re-strategising, simulating the future in my head every minute.

To be very honest, Adulthood is not easy.

Question to folks in their thirties and beyond...
How did you get past the worries of your twenties?
Or does the worries keep getting bigger ?

Read!!! And not just read bt "Read the Right books/Materials". Get the right knowledge and information timely or ahead of time.

You have three options:


- Open a domiciliary account (USD, GBP, EUR) with a reputable bank in Nigeria that stood the test of time. (reliable)

- If you have the means, open a foreign account with one of the foreign neobanks.

- Save your foreign currencies with a fintech that gives a good savings rate (e.g., Piggyvest) (Depends if it can start the test of time, ensure the fintech insures customer's deposits).

Lol

That doesn't mean others can't air their views.

Everyone has story to tell, even your story sef if I somebody drop em own now, you will understand that you were also favoured in a little way.

You just have to be prepared mentally, life is tough and adulthood keeps unearthing new problems. There would be problems in your 20s, 30s and 40s

That's not a financial advise please, it's very risky, it's a high loss high gain savings scheme.

If the Naira falls to 1000/$ then you are sure of making #10,000,000 from the $10,000 which you saved with #4,130,000 and then you have a lot of profits.

But....

If the economy gets free of inflation and Naira rises to 100/$, your $10,000 which you saved with #4,130,000 would be as small as #1,000,000, that's a big loss too.

Well what do I know, some persons don't even want the economy to get better.

I'm in my early 20s hustling crazily and gaining experience from different jobs so that I'd live a comfortable life and retire early in my 40s.

You need to take it easy. Don’t go and grow old overnight. Easy on yourself

Coming from a poor home, your worries starts from age 12 and not 20's.

I have had my life planned out although some plans fail but I make sure I don't lose relevance in whatever I do.

20's is the time for mistakes, they are inevitable even if you live with the wisest man on earth, just make sure the damages of the outcome doesn't affect your mental health so that you can pick up again and drive to your goals.

Try not to talk about your achievements, it breeds unnecessary foes, spend your money on your health, outlook and always make sure you are happy saving funds because might save up and end up not using the funds, we aren't praying for death though.

Try not to impress a woman, they can't be satisfied you will only end up losing your relevance.

Laslas Life no get Manual, because some persons don't even have meaningful worries of life, they were birthed into solid foundations while others wished they someone could take their lives as they didn't want to kill themselves.

All is well.

This is how women get deceived and remain in a perpetual state of dependence on men leading to high/low end P work later on in life. I was fed similar BS. Females should hustle as much as men. They even need this thread more. Break that cycle of poverty and beggie beggie mentality.

If na worry, it is normal..It makes you a human.

But, 20 is fun..And stress...

You hustle to read, acquired knowledge and skills, hustle to love up and have fun..Hustle to spend as well..

The truth is If you find way to have self control around women, your twenties will be a solid foundation..As you get to 30s where life starts.

The solid foundation and little things you have achieved in 20s will determine your 30s..When you achieve success, women, The best of them will be there for you.

The average life will be there.

Plus other investments..30s is where you start investments proper and by 40s, you are planning retirements..To explore life with your partner and children at 50....

If you fail to plan, you are indirectly planning to fail.

you're absolutely right . But then in life every investment comes with risk .. but one needs to take calculated risk though
