How I Made My First Million by Hideki(m): 3:48pm On Oct 17, 2023
The truth is I didn't prepare for it. grin... neither did I stress much. When I got a job in corporate finance, few months after NYSC, I was redeployed from Lagos to PH after about a week or so, I had not even finished training. The redeployment letter had inconvenience allowance plus tfare and housing, infact before I could finish reading the letter the second time, alert done enter, that moment I ran to the toilet to look at the figures closely. When I came out from the toilet I had the millionaire smile written all over my face.
When I got to PH, I didn't rent a house cos one of my senior colleague who was recently redeployed to PH had rented a suite in a hotel and the suite had an extra room, the guy just gave it to me at no cost, infact he said I should eat whatever I want and it should be added to his bill ( as a senior i am not privy to his own redeployment allowance).
A little over two months in PH, I was redeployed back to Lagos cos two analyst had left and they quickly needed someone with a basic knowledge of creating insights and dashboards, I had a fair knowledge of Power BI hence I applied and was redeployed back to Lagos (another set of allowances).
I had made about 3.85million excluding salaries, in just over 3 months of work for traveling to PH and back to Lagos ...I really enjoyed those early days of working, I long for those days...don't let anyone tell you school is scam, don't joke with your academics.

What I meant is that the idea of getting millions is always satisfying but after getting it, it becomes normal and you might even go broke even after getting the millions.

Instead of giving me 20m at a go, I would prefer 1m every month

I agree with you that the more you earn at a point the huge increment in earnings would only give a marginal increase in fulfillment. However it is not wise to reject a lump sum for a regular payment totalling same amount because of the time value of money

I have never in my life seen 1million in my akant. Even 50,000 has never entered my acct. I know I won't be able to sleep that night if I ever see a million. I tap from your testimony sir hideki. More money for you. Currently my acct is superb red. Nothing. I won't despise the millionaires because I know one day I will be one even if I don't anything now. How I wish I could even see 10k now. 😢😢😢

Hi, if you are young and focused, just be good with people and be learn to be good with numbers, that has been my recipe for success. Spend time on Udemy and Coursera, search for where you can learn free online courses, carve a niche, master it, and build your CV. If you learn some data skills, I could let you use my company for reference and referral purposes, this could help you earn experience hire positions.

Okay, nice summation.
Why I don't like large sums, it comes with too many expectations and if not managed properly might go faster. I prefer little regular sums even if I'm investing especially starting a new business.

When you have a large sum, you can call any of the financial houses like the IBTC Mutual funds, they have higher rates than bank deposits, you can also invest in Secondary market treasury bills or let your bank bid for you in the primary market....there are lots of legitimate fixed income products that many financial houses can sell to you, where you can get better rates. Some of them even pay you interest upfront...that can be reinvested hence compounding your income
Re: How I Made My First Million by Hidewell(m): 5:19pm On Oct 17, 2023
Thank you for your assertion. I will put it into goof use. I am currently learning data analytics on Alisson. I topped it with YouTube videos. You look like a good mentor. How I wish you could be mine.

I am not a good mentor, but it is good that you are doing something productive, don't forget to attend boot camps where you can meet others and develop further

Ok, I have been getting messages, see my company is quite small grin, what we do is Advisory, Business intelligence and analysis. In a nut shell we sell analysis of almost every business sector to clients who want to expand into these sectors. We compete with people like Mordor intelligence, reportlinker etc but we are still quite small cos we do not have a large client base and subscriptions so we cannot take in a lot of people for internship. I do not run it physically cos I am still in paid employment.
