Bro...you asking this question shows you are currently facing a lot like 95% Nigerians. It has gotten to a point where living souls jealous the dead. People are not afraid to commit suicide, but the pressure afterlife that awaits anyone that kill himself is what makes it difficult. On grace to grass issue, life isn't like a bed of roses. What makes you fall to grass makes another one to fall into grace. Some people with good background started the life with an advantage due to them having someone that will guide,guard them, someone that always have their backs. This writer didn't know his mother , no siblings of maternal blood that I know of, which cost the writer so many things You cannot compare my achievement with someone that have a good mother at his back. There was a time I made some money, wanted to build a house, due to high rate of land grabbers in where I reside , I met my uncle, highly revered in my state, gave him money to get me a plot of land. I had it in mind that with him, everything will be smooth less I forget, he works in URP..urban and regional planning, this year make it 7th year I gave him 600k ..I no see land ooo.
Now tell me, would my mother have done such?
I can boldly that I'm one of the most current person in the Russian/Ukraine war...WHY?
I just want to hear that a nuke has been detonated and there is counter attack , with that, the end of the world will be near and faster than thought..

Chief show some love to a brother

whatever is not small

3 years ago I was basically a King from 2018 to 2019. I was doing my MBA in Zurich Switzerland, the most expensive city in the world. I was young at 24 to 25 years. Before that I was in Malaysia doing a levels and Bsc between 2010 and 2017 plus gap years I took.

Malaysia is less expensive than Switzerland but its not really that cheap because I lived in the capital (Kuala Lumpur). 2 of my sisters were also studying together with me. All financed by my father

All funded by my late father. My school fees in switzerland was 33,000 swiss francs and 25,000 swiss francs for living expenses for 1 year. Together everything then was about almost 40 million naira for a year.

While I was there I didn't try to find a job until it was too late (permit was expiring). Before that I'd never worked a day in my life before.

Basically I lived a life of luxury and everything came crashing down

I left switzerland in December 2019, didn't finish my MBA. No funds. Dad's burial took almost everything . family was in so much debt. Its crazy

Dad died few days I was supposed to leave for switzerland (he was old enough 95 years).

Anyway countdown three years later. I'm doing POS business in Lagos. I tried dispatch business but I stopped after 6 months unable to find quality riders and the Daily headaches.

Back to your question on grace to grass.

I used to travel a most every 2 weeks when I was in Switzerland. I've been to France, Germany, London, Dubai for holidays before and now I do a POS business. Its funny because i could be insulted by people wey never cross third mainland bridge before in tjis POS business but it makes me laugh though. I don't beat myself up

Tried to get a job but no positions.

I regret certain things I did. I was too comfortable that I didn't even try to get a job until it was too late.

I regret certain actions. I wished I could change things but I've moved on. Om working hard to see what I can do to rebuild. I believe if God gives me life I can go back to my former lifestyle with improvements

I'm trying to see if I can go back cheaper place like Canada or others, getting help from sister.

Picture attached was my swiss visa.

Only someone that made quick money, an employer that didn't use his or her Salary very well or A businessman with some business accident can go from Grace to grass..;

if you have a highly profitable or high income skill, I doubt if you will go from Grace to grass.

meanwhile

I have never play bet but I'm considering that recently. For the purpose of raising capital, I had several opportunity to make supply but no money to run the deal. Life is truly hard, not long ago I was considering ending it.

Yes,

We were living fine until scammers scammed me because of my greed. Til now, we have not recovered. I am just living waiting for the day everything will come to an end. Everything I put my hands on fails and I am already hopeless.

If I start to talk I won 40 million with 40,000 Naira on sportybet , I felt invincible . I started carrying all the prostitutes I could think of, send money to all those begging me , bought a car and living the lavish life put 20 million Naira back to betting and I can categorically tell you that I lost it all . Now all the friends I gathered in the win days has left me and my rickety camry alone..

Coolis:
If I am alive today, then it's because of the words of hope and encouragement l read on nairaland . 42 of age, no wife, no children, no good means of livelihood. From 2013 to 2019, used to have a car and can boast of couple of millions but eating decent meal today is a challenge. I lost my car to COVID 19, tried my hands on one online business or the other and ended up losing everything. Have been praying to God for a second chance.

trek from ikorodu to ojota..bros abeg easy with the lies

zrealjaheal:

Please come in and share your story for some of us to learn because it seems I am finding it hard to get back to my glory days.

Richesntteh:
I was not poor nor very rich but I was ok. In 2018 I made 8.6million after graduation in 2015. I bought my first car (toyota corolla 2005 model). Life happens positively to me. I became the first to own a car in my family. Before now I got married in 2014 n we are blessed with 3kids. Wahala started in 2020 during covid-19. I did a contract with a state government n the project was later abandoned. No payment till date. I made few financial mistakes through wrong investment and sourounding my self with fake and wrong people. In mid of 2021 my dad's health became a challenge. His condition finished the remaining money and in November that year he died. I started thinking of suicide. My wife withdraw her respect 80% from me. I began to struggle. Move from church to church.
In order to alleviate the situation, a friend of mind connected me to people that do sales contract jobs. There was no money so I had to buy black market money (250,000) at 30% interest rate. To return capital and interest once after 120days. By this time my late dad is in the monk. I stayed for more than 3month no job nor contract. My BP began to rise. Suicide thought increase but whenever I set my eyes on my beautiful children tears roll down and I change my thought. In summary I have to sale my car to pay part of the debt n some for my dad's funeral which held in the second quarter of this year. Am still indebted to where I bought money. Till now I don't have a job. Most times I stayed indoor for month. Am only surviving through my late dad's small pension. It last only two weeks.
I have waec, bsc incase anyone can help me with a job. I can work anywhere in nigeria including borno state. Life is very difficult without money as a family man.

Vadese1:
Am much confused. To think that at a younger age, I almost singlehandedly completed a church building for worshipping God. 80percent of the church project was finance by me. Today am living like nobody. This month make it Exactly 8 years that things went South.

zrealjaheal:
@bolded
that has always been my mindset
Kos of that I caved myself in. Pushed the world away making my condition worst all in the name of no one seems to care

now ask yourself
how many times have you asked those who you feel should care HOW THEY ARE FARING?

odebmart:
Aaaah... I know that level very well, I have been there several times, sometimes due to my wrong choices, other times due to human wickedness because I just wanted to help a brother, but you know like they say, it's not how many times you fall that matters but your ability to rise up again that counts, and in order to remain standing, you must first make sure you keep your power house (i.e your mind) healthy, by thinking the right thoughts and also you need spiritual backup and upliftment to keep the spirit alive and hopeful.
Most of all avoid privatisation ( success killer).
Learn from your mistakes
Be disciplined
Be focus minded.
Being down is painful and the desire to rush out of it immediately leads to more frustration and failure, take time analyse where you are at that moment and work out a plan to get out of it, taking one day at a time, in a short while, you will back on your feet.
I thank God that I learnt my lessons and am standing back on my feet, better, stronger and more experienced
