Club Cubana is the answer. I worked there. If you have ever been there or clubbed there, then you'd understand how making thousands could be easy peasy in one night. I could make as much as 500k on a weekend. Then, I was like LAPO to family and friends. If you met me then to borrow you 1M, it would be readily available.

I was a teenage girl, naive and impressionable. I felt everyone had a good heart — like me. I would always help anyone who came to me having money problems. Anyone. I'd make sure you live la Vida loca as far as you came to me for help and I know you.

I had an admission to study in Finland, and then I got duped of over 5Ms by an agent. Sadly, this person was introduced to me by family. Till now, I don't know her whereabouts. I doled out uncountable monies doing giveaways without plans because I felt it would always be there. Even my parents were no good.

Do you know what it feels like to have over 9M in one minute and be stark broke in another? Sometimes, I sit and stare forlornly and just think I have nothing else to live for. When I tell people I'm depressed, they laugh at me and call me bipolar or make jest of me about being depressed. You don't understand it, mate. Like another Nairalander said, maybe I'm just still very weak and playing cowardice to snuff life out of me. Or maybe, I'm still very undecided. Time will tell.

Mind you, I have things going on for me but I can't forking move on. I hate everyone who I ever was there for. I hate them. I regret every forking thing I ever did for them. 😭. Maybe, I just had too many expectations. Just maybe. But, why should I not? I forking cared for them. Why shouldn't I?

I'm sorry about the epistle.


I think money came to you but you had no clue on how to channel it right and multiply it

Honestly cash is King

But most times it's not even about making money but about retaining it and multiplying it


You should not feel sad
Rather you should learn from your experience

I was like you about a decade ago

I lost millions
Ended up in depression for like 3 years

But even in the midst of depression I never gave up

Later Picked myself up
Began to study on investments, money/financial management

It's taken me years
But I have started rising again
Bit by bit

Now I am highly detailed and organized
The rich are extremely detailed and organized (Dangote, Otedola, most rich guys are like that)

They don't do things anyhow

My dressing, house everything kept neat and well
Everything about me well organized

I excercise and work out weekly

I also do a lot of meditation
Mostly between 1am to 4am
Although not all nights
Sleep the nights I feel tired

I read helpful books in my area of interest

Example I am management inclined so I read up on the works of top management guru like Jack Welch former CEO of General Electric one of the best management guru of 21st century

Many other authors
Also other trainings, especially online

Also mixing with successful people is important

I already set out my plan even before money started coming again

Channeling my resources to these my plans
Started yielding results bit by bit

I know with time
Billionaireship will come


So don't give up

Just pick yourself up
Life ain't easy

Although my sadness is my marriage
Think I married wrongly

Still working on it to know whether it will later work out fine

But if I don't see a headway

I am quiting
Hoping it works out fine

Same things happened wit Sandra but we finally broke up after my fone was stolen wit my two MTN sim cards in Dem. I've searched for her on Facebook several times but couldn't reach her, so I lock up.

My regret: being too anxious and not assertive enough, I regret not coming out sooner. Wasted years worrying about it, worrying about pretty much everything. All the time,being too afraid to live.

I used to think my family can't survive without me, so I wasted enough time trying to be almost everything possible for them, but I was totally wrong.

What's yours

Nothing

Leave am. Make e dey ask me questions like lawyer. grin. Maybe he doesn't know who Cubana or what Cubana club looks like.

I don't blame him, people will always doubt what they haven't experienced. For example, Hennessy VS in wholesale shops could cost 70-100k but clubs go sell for over 300-400k, and with other special features, could cost more. Me wey dey sell fit add 50k or 100k. No time for questions. They WILL pay! 🤣

Gotta ask, why did you quit the gig though? If it was such easy money, why not keep at it for like 4 years and get enough money to buy your own private island where I go be your personal masseur? grin

Dedicating my time to assist family members who later turned to mock me when things went wrong for me. Some even called me ritualist who was using their stars. Can you imagine?

Wasting my resources to treat a stubborn wife who was bedridden for six months. That was the "finishing" for my business funds. She left after her recovery. But not without sending me to the police cell and courts on trumped-up charges of threat to her life.

The list goes on and on.

But I am very sure there's light at the end of the tunnel despite all these. I have forgiven all but will henceforth keep to myself after this experience. They really mocked the hell out of my life.

Hmmm

My biggest regret in life so far is not giving the Yoruba traditional religion a chance in my life on time.

If I had, things wouldn't have gotten this bad. But as bad as things are, I'm doing fine as an average Lagosian with prospects to improve my lot in life within a short time.

The priests opened my eyes spiritually.

Lots of these top guns and board members of organisations are spiritually enlightend, but they won't reveal their source of protection and guidance to you. Nobody will, unless they're very drunk or they care about you.

Many pastors & alfas visit these guys at night for spiritual assistance, but condemn them during the day. Funny how the priests even advise one to do the same so people won't know your source of guidance and protection.

I feel sorry for the spiritually blind ones living in Sub-Saharan Africa.


However, if my life has been as smooth as it was and I NEVER encountered the problems I had, I'd have continued be a very arrogant and spoilt brat. I probably would be in prison by now from living brazen, yet naïve.

I'm grateful for how things turned out still


Whatever isn't purely of God is darkness.

And darkness carries with it hidden tragedies waiting to overtake you.

You didn't find enlightenment. You're courting destruction.

Jesus is the ONLY true way.

Age has gone but don't let it bother you. Why? If it bothers you, you will unconsciously be chasing potential ladies away. In essence, smile and be genuinely happy. Also, be deliberate about your strategies, make efforts (but don't be desperate).

I will advise to never get emotionally attached to anything you have in life so that you won't get hurt too much when you have it no more. It also works for having bad experiences or situation as life goes on and you have to move with it or you will be left in the past. If you don't forget the past, it will prevent you from enjoying the present and embracing the future with hope that things will be good again.

You are right.What hurts me the most though is the time wasted.Whenever I think about the decisions and indecisions I made in my twenties and the fact that I can NEVER be a twenty something ever again,it hurts like hell and makes me want to go crazy.

But I tell myself there's nothing I can do about it,so I move on!

Spending my life savings of almost 35million to build 10self contain apartment for rent, now my money has finished and I haven't completed the house. Am even struggling to eat now meanwhile I have 35million worth of uncompleted building , not rentable.
You should have approached your bank for counterpart funding, that way, you provide land + 25m and they arrange the remaining balance for your endeavour and in 10years+, you're set for life.

U didn't finish narrating your story.
How did u later pay up d loan u collected from loan sharks?
How did u later build your house you are living now and how did u make over 10m?

Well I was able to pay using my salary.
Only that it was stiffening. I had no breathing space for any enjoyment at all.

While this was happening, I got a particular payment 250k from an unexpected source.
It was a life saver.

I had an option of using it to offset part of my debt, but I decided not to.
This same period an opportunity came for another ponzi . Lol.
It was fresh and hot.
I decided to go for broke. Do or die. I was desperate.
So I went all in.
Perhaps God saw my heart, I was making 500k profit in a day. As a cycle was complete in less than 3 hours, I would go in again.
So I was making good sum at the end of the day. That site crashed in 3 days.
From there I heard of another one, I did the same thing,went in with 500k, was making 1m in one cycle, I sha kept rinsing and washing.
Site lasted about 5 days. But that's was enough for me to make good money.
This same period,MBA forex by Maxwell Odum was popular. I contemplated it. Luckily a friend Was a manager in one of their many branches. So I decided to give it a shot.
From the money, I did MBA forex with 3m. I was collecting 450k monthly as ROI. I did it for a year.

Then I already had the land.
I just deployed the resources to start the building. I went so far in a very short period. In fact it was that corona period.

So after I finished paying for the loan. I now started using my salary to continue the building.

No more ponzi.

I knew the 2 ponzi and MBA forex that gave me that much was just a coincidence.
I could have lost like I used to. Note my 3m capital is still with MBA because they also crashed.

Since then till now, I stayed away from any online investment.

Life is a risk.
I took those risky giant steps and it paid off.
I could have gotten my fingers burnt again. But I believe God just decided to have mercy.

Everything I regret is for me to learn a lesson and become a better person.

The whole life itself is full of regrets but thank God for prayer to Almighty that is giving me a solace and comfort in times of trouble.
