Even the mere act of becoming an embryo is luck. Out of millions of sperm, one fused with the ovum. So everyone here already won a lottery.

So true. You mean quadrillions of sperm. See below

Amazing!! This man is one great man.

Have you used this Oraimo brand before? You'll love it really

PoliteActivist:
@bolded, see convoluted logic.
If destined to be wealthy you'd be born with the right spirit to achieve it

you are very wrong. Your destiny lies in your hands.

Haven’t you heard of that saying before??

Please how old are you to start with?

Sometimes IT IS LUCK!!!!!
Call it whatever you want to.

Mad/foolish Christians will call it “grace”.

Tony is right on the “luck” aspect.


“The harder I work, the luckier I get”

Afamsi:
Oga Tony, there is nothing called luck, thank God for his grace

Dey deceive yourself, you way get grace , how much she put for your bank account? I think the point he is passing across is that there is an element of chance or luck which is critical in his story.

For example, most of us did not get the opportunity to start a bank in our 30s like Aig of Access or Tayo of GTb or Tony of Standard bank . Or apply for an OML like Mike Adenuga in his 30s. They were lucky to be ypung and close to their prime when Nigeria was evolving and making signifixant changes. Of course there were people who were more hardworking but their businesses failed while some were doing bare minimum and they succeeded.

The man say he get luck leave am you you get grace go collect your own too

Hard-work & passion with determination

When a man cannot explain his wealth, he calls it luck or God's magical doings .............

Is not luck but Grace

Afamsi:
Oga Tony, there is nothing called luck, thank God for his grace

Exactly, I prefer the term, BLESSED

The like of you,dangote,folarunshu,tinubu,atiku e.t.c na pack all the lucks wea dey naija,na him today youths no see any

Uchedizzy:

thank you English mistress

PoliteActivist:
Thanks. Nice chatting witcha.
If you really think about it, unless we somehow participated in creating ourselves and in determining where and to whom we were born, as far as we human beings can see, everything originates with luck - including God's favor/grace!

Does God only show his grace to sinners And not to believers, most rich people don't believe in God

richie240:
Brah, don't let them deceive u biko, hear it loud and clear: THERE'S NOTHING LIKE 'LUCK'
Whoever gets ahead in ds life does so as a result of his/her access to LIGHT. That light can be gotten either thru d divine or thru d kingdom of darkness.

Even Jesus Christ (d Messiah) was approached by d king of this world to bow down in worship to him so dt he can access d riches, fame and power of this world.

It would've bn better if Elumelu had told his audience dt he plucks dollars from d tree at back of his house than ds bull crap!



Pls, loudit biko!

those mindset people have about wealth was gotten from school and society...

I understand what you talking about perfectly.

Question is how old are YOU??
THINK!! Try thinking for a change.
Tell me one major thing in your life that was not determined by where you were born, who you were born to, your environment, and the type of person you are!

Afamsi:
Oga Tony, there is nothing called luck, thank God for his grace

Na the same na, the presence of Grace is luck.

Abi na everybody dey get grace?

headboyprince:

It seems so, doesn't it?
Then again you are equating being rich to being favored or blessed. Thousands of rich people have committed suicide

Revolution2022:
One way Or the other,you have an underhand dealings.

Sure, several under dealings sef.

Imagine say Standard Trust Bank or so bought over UBA during the banking consolidation...with which money?

Many of these guys are huge business fronts of terribly corrupt Nigerian politicians....

Scam man won't give you all the details

xeratek:
Look at this scammer with fake empowerment schemes

Haha

Any you say about how to be successful is definitely correct

Not my father who couldn't afford a plot of land telling me this and you expect me to listen

Baba Tony even if you are not correct to me you are 1001% correct

Average Nigerians will misinterprete his opinion about himself.

When you work hard with passion to put yourself in the position of opportunity, when the opportunities start coming it would be greatly beyond your expectations.

Heaven helps those who help themselves!

speak with common sense abeg, even if it's not common.

Brendaniel:
Someone said Luck is the currency of the weak.

I believe in grace

what is Grace?

harmargedon:
what is Grace?

Grace is unmerited Favour

Brendaniel:
Grace is unmerited Favour

then what is luck?

Brendaniel:
Grace is unmerited Favour

I had zero energy to argue so I saved this for you

harmargedon:
then what is luck?

Luck looks like grace but seeks to be deductive while grace seeks to be inclusive....

Luck tries to select fewest possible it can get while grace tries to select the maximum possible it can get...

harmargedon:

There is difference still though they seem alike, grace seeks many, luck seeks a few

I give it to Almighty Jehovah

Brendaniel:

the universe is bound on destiny. Each man is attached to his own. Luck or grace are strings of a man's Destiny. Whatever anyone is today, he's destined to be.

In the aspect of wealth, No man is too hard working, smart, great or lucky. A fool can be rich same way a lazy man. We can only strive for daily bread (for food and to solve our personal needs), but you see wealth, is destiny related.

buygala:
He had parents who laid a solid foundation for him..he won the birth lottery.. The 1st and most important lottery any human can win.

So yes... He is lucky.... And he built on that luck.. Even though there are snippets of some of his alleged shadowy dealings.. But as I wasn't there when he was doing it, I will count it all his "luck"


Go read A. A. Rano's story.. That right there is full blown hustle devoid of any birth lottery

Calm down, this guy as a kid wasn’t as privileged as you think. Raised by his mother selling fries in my hometown.
