I got married when I would have used the little money I had then to develop myself and invest in business.The worst of it all was using my subsequent income to sponsor the mad woman to school,I regret till now.
Looks like it didn’t workout? You mind sharing your mistakes in choosing a wife so that younger ones can learn.

I’m not 30 yet , but my regrets are
1. Using my first millions to build house
2. Not investing in crypto early
3. Not going into this my business early
I will always defend this.

Building house when you are young and not unbelievably liquid is a waste.

Is house no longer an asset? It’s the basic thing of life. He can never be homeless in life no matter what happens.

Find someone you love while you're young and build with her,it's very difficult to love someone after building alone for a long time.The scars and lessons you got on your way up will make you very weary of your feelings ,too mechanical.

When you start changing status,pull your woman up with you.You don't wanna be up there and she's still almost where you met her,all attraction you had for her will fade.

You don't need friends,you need brothers.That loyal motherfucker that'd fight first and ask questions later.Even if it's just one person.

Avoid showoff or largesse of any kind cos the people untop will get scared you're growing to fast and will wanna stiffle this growth if they can.
Be modest and calculative.

Trust no one with your innate issues or successes,this is meant for your partner alone.
That so called mentor might be jealous of you so shut it and tell this to either parents or wife cos they've got a lot to lose if they Bleep up with information that'd get you down or killed.

Support your family if you've got bank,especially your aging parents.
It's a great feeling to see the day you give back to the people who sacrificed a lot to form you into a refined human,
Definitely better than giving those who don't rate you cos you're trying yo impress.

Take good care of yourself and always look good and clean,it helps your confidence.

Avoid loud and gutter women,especially if you've built something too good to lose!!!
It's usually better to mingle with your social class at all times,so y'all can always meet halfway.
All that "person na person" talk na pure cap.

Is house the only asset one can get?

I am not against getting a house but don't get it with all your savings while you are still young.

If after buying a house you won't have at least half of the house worth in savings, don't touch it.

Leave that to old people.

You can do what works for you sha. It's a free world.

Only regret spent my entire youthful energetic years in an unrewarding company with nothing to show for. Other regret didn't get the girl of my dreams still pains me today for listening to stupid friends who said I should stay clear.
Never stay too long in any unrewarding organization.

Yeah, it’s a free world. But I’ll never see a house as a bad investment, regardless the age it was built. It’s not the only investment one can make, but it’s still a good investment. We’ve seen people invest in other things that go south, but you can hardly say that whem it comes to building.

What is the essence of living?

Creating Meaning: Finding or creating purpose through work, family, faith, or passions.

Connection: Building meaningful relationships and contributing to the lives of others.

Growth: Continuously learning, evolving, and striving to become better.

Gratitude: Appreciating the simple moments and the gift of existence.


Ultimately, the essence lies in how you choose, focus, resist major destructions to navigate and shape your journey. What gives your life essence?

This is sheer brilliance! This is the real Nigeria dream.
mcdokwe:
With one million, you could be running one bigger than most you know.

I started mine with less than 50k of my own, although I already had a coloured printer, deposited my degree cert and nysc discharge cert +20k for a photocopying machine that was sold for 45k at that point.

Bought a used gen of 27k, 200k can't buy it now sha.

If space is guaranteed, 400k can buy a DI machine which most people don't have, a black and white printer of 90k and other etc and you're good to start, but not in the level the oga is operating

Even in my next world I will never forgive her

Marrying just for love alone is not sustainable. I should have married a lady that can take up at least 30% of our bills. Now I bare about 98% of our bills.
Unfortunately, those wives that can take up a good percentage of the bills are seldom willing to do so. Just know that you don't have any regrets marrying an unproductive woman as long as she gives you peace.

What makes it easier do run a business in Nigeria?
Just the leverage of having dual nationality and also currency advantage. Also most clients are foreign based and the tax I pay here is not as crazy as that as of the uk.

I know lot of retires from UK collecting their pension but based here. It's different when you prepared for what Nigeria brings such as solar power to supply your electricity and living in a conducive environment where everyone minds their business.

Fueling of car isn't an issue to an extent since it's mostly used for work and going shopping for groceries. All those lekki palms, Vgc and all those quiet estate on Lagos Island there are lots of Nigerians with British passport.

Well, to every action there is a reaction.

Not everyone will be millionaires at 20 or at 30 nor 40.

Same as not everyone will live to 50.

Their is no manual for life, so focus on fulfilling you and forget about conforming to societal standards, pressure or view of a fulfilled life.


No one else will live a fulfilled life for you, it is yours to live, enjoy, build and experience.

Don't be a slave to people's opinion, yes!!

Don't regret anything, appreciate that you still have breadth in your nostrils and focus on the opportunities ahead of you.



Good morning
Two bottles of udeme for this man...
