If u reason properly you will know u re talking like foolish teenager

where did he get power as opposition leader? Is it not because of enomours money in his disposal? You guys just too myopic in reasoning, when u focus in one way, it takes grace for u to think in other perspective.



Did u think Tinubu started fighting people in power from 1999 (democracy)?

Where did Tinubu got power to fight Abacha? Had he become governor then?

Perhaps ur age doesn't make you aware that Tinubu fought Abacha and almost brought him to his knee.
You need power to make money

I will choose power because eventually a man with power will control money

Your question should be what's the difference between money and power

Let's give example of it's influence
Your pastor lords over you because he has control over you mind, the lastma man dragging you irrespective of your money has power over you cause he's been backed by a powerful constitution.
But that doesn't mean money can't over take power or the constitution.

For example you can payoff your pastor to influence his followers in a certain way, and the lastma dude even at some point your vehicle can be released after paying some hiked fee
A rich man can buy a country PR by investing some substantial amount.
And never to forget how Mansa Musa used his wealth to destabilize Egypt then.
So it's reasonable to choose money, you can always learn power

Power comes money and money atimes buy you power.

You can never be poor if you have power, once you like Money and material things.

You can have money without ever going close to power and money can buy you power atimes but not always.

Finally, Power is greater than money in the Same level.

You can have money and still not have power..... The present Abachas

You can have power but yet, no money..... The present Awolowos

When you have money and power, you are the real GOAT... The present Tinubus


If you don't understand the illustration up there, you are a kid....
You fucking nailed it !!!

You are the GOAT

Anybody that didn't get it is Kid Indeed

Are you sure? Do you know what the power in the west or even China has done? Power is power...
Do you know even with money, you can't make things go away if the power that be are determined to humble you.
Ask Jack Mi, Bill Gates and Pablo Escobar
true that's why I said it depends on the settings, in most cases even you can't get power without money, there is a reason MKO, Pablo made a move for political power it was due to the money they have, even tinubu was able to influence his victory especially at the primaries through money, if jack ma should step out of china he would still be powerful with his wealth.

Do you know what is most powerful on earth? “ The Word and The Will Of Man”

A man with a good use of word can sway people and make them do his will. The ability to make others do your will is the highest level of power.

Now, tell me if you need money for that.

With Words, backed with action - you can make people trust and look up to you. When people look up to you and trust you, they will willingly put you in a position of power.

With a good use of words and marketing gimmicks, you can sell any product - which equals money.


Power gotten through the will of the people is real power, and it will be very hard to lose it. Likewise money gotten legitimately.

If you buy power, you will lose it fast because money has limit. If you make money illegally also, you will lose it fast cause people can’t be fooled forever.

He has power to amass that wealth ... What business was he doing to have that wealth... He was a ruler to have such wealth... Same with Solomon ... It was power

When you have money, you have power.
Nigeria corrupt system don't twist your brain. The power in the hands of judges can't be obtained with money in civilized countries. Even if a judge is earning 100k monthly, he will still have the power to decide the fate of a billionaire.

Power of course.

However, one while one can have money and not have power, one cannot have power without money.

I don't need power, every one is built differently. I can use money to get power but I won't because of who I am. I repeat power is not in my dictionary, I need money plenty of it to make the world around me better

If you think you are so powerful because you are a billionaire, go and murder someone, it's a judge that has less than 500k in his bank account that will send you to lifetime imprisonment.

The judge with 500k can be sentenced to death if he commits the same crime. Only God is all powerful.

You can’t have power without money

First you make the money
Then you get the power
Then respect follows
That why some people have to do drugs to make money for themselves before going into politics.
Re: Power And Money. Which One Is Greater? by Seunomobo: 12:01pm On Sep 08, 2023
There's no power without money, for you to have power, you must have spent some money before hand.
Re: Power And Money. Which One Is Greater? by Musisco01(m): 12:01pm On Sep 08, 2023

With money you can buy power


Yet with power you can acquire money

[quote author=Abaman001 post=125659878][/quote]How old are you? Can you relate this topic with Dangote and BUA? If you can give me the difference between this two correctly, then I might believe you to be an adult... Lol

Remember, both have money, both only one has power... There's no need for you to mention me anymore, I already told you the difference
