"A man without assets is a man without leverage.

Before 35, you need to stop living like time is on your side. It isn’t. Every year wasted is a year you don’t get back. Owning a car and land isn’t about luxury....it’s about control. Control over your mobility, your options, and your future.

Here’s the game plan:

1. Master a High-Income Skill – Forget chasing quick cash. Learn a skill that will pay you consistently, whether it’s sales, coding, trading, or business. Money follows skill.

2. Control Your Expenses – Stop flexing for people who don’t care. Cut out useless spending, overpriced trends, and social validation that does nothing for your future. Every unnecessary dollar spent is a dollar stolen from your dreams.

3. Build Credit & Save Ruthlessly – Use credit wisely, not recklessly. Stack your savings like your life depends on it, because it does. A land deposit today is wealth tomorrow.

4. Make Money Work for You – Invest. Whether it’s real estate, stocks, crypto, or a side hustle, put your money in places where it grows while you sleep.

5. Move in Silence, Win in Private – Announce nothing, just execute. Let them see your success, not your struggle.

Why? Because past 35, life doesn’t get easier....it gets realer. Your value as a man is tied to what you build, not what you fantasize about. A man with assets moves differently. He doesn’t beg, he negotiates. He doesn’t wait for opportunities, he creates them.

Start now. The future is coming whether you're ready or not."

Most of these works either in Europe or Asia, not really Africa

Hmmmmmm

Even killing? You must be high on meth[sub][/sub]

And I'm 37 without a car and a house.
Useless post making fp
Fvck all moderators

Even abroad with stable economy, most people who own houses and cars at that age are owing huge sums in car loans and mortgages.

Nigerians encourage crimes and push young people into desperation for wealth.

People setting useless timelines

This is a useless advice.

Criminal potential advice.

In New York, many parts of NYC, you depend on a functional metro rail system. Car is good for convenience, but in NYC, most parts at least, you really don't need a car.

This is very wrong advisory that will promote illegal means to acquire wealth
Work hard and work honestly while you’re young and save alot while taking care of yourself and your family

You Are Advising & Encouraging Steal Of Cars

Do not listen to op, live your life at your own pace and never compare yourself to others. Rather you should compare your present self to your past to ensure you are making consistent progress. I bought my first car at 22 and also bought for my dad the same day. I bought a 33,000ltr petroleum tanker for Ago business before 30 but still I do not diminish or look down on the struggles of individuals who do not have same opportunities I had in Nigeria. I was merely lucky to work good multinationals from my early 20ies.

Live your life at your own pace, try to be better every day in some form and take care of your health. Do not feel bad if you do not have a car or house at 35, you understand your own struggles the best. Life is a rat race and none of us is coming out of this race alive.

boss can I link up with you via email? How can I work with these multinational firms? My area of specialty is technical job.

Nnamdipapa:
I tire for the guy, small money and he is busy opening threads about what people should or should not have by 35.

lol indirectly us to steal #20 million naira before age 35 am a missed call already unless somebori dash me money soon

Dzzzz:
You took your time to write the most dumbest thing the Internet has ever seen…For your mind you get sense but deep down you’re a compound fool.I had 4cars and I sold 2 cause they all liability..

do you watch movies, there are some movies right now without recognition explaining the shiit we live in. Western civilization is crap anything wealth you acquire is for the system. We are not winning this game. We have to realize we are in matrix. The coporate world is not for the weak. I will share a true life story of man who worked his socked off on retiring e built a house to spend his rest of his remaining old years but he didn't set foot in the house before he kpai. You have said it all. I have tried so much to try what this OP said, the kind suffer wey I suffer I no wish am for my enemy. Now am still optimistic that one day I will achieve my dreams. But never will I rush my timeline

What is the meaning of "do everything possible" that's how hediots with low self esteem will go and be removing people's head just to live up to this kind of rubbish opinions. Everybody has his or her own time.

Oga I don try all these nonsense I still never build house so relax. Save useless naira. I laughter way exchange rate fit skyrocket to #2k5... Money making no deal with age. What if I told you I have investment that is going to yield when am about 45 years. Mind yourself OP. Making money past 35 yo is not easy just dey yarn dust. Oga thank God for your life challenges didn't remember you. You were able to buy car and build house b4 35. Congrats. Leave us in peace. Acquiring food for termites and rust or better something your progeny won't think twice b4 selling for cheap. Life is so beautiful cap. Build a better mindset than this rubbish you posted.

Bad advice.

Can the present economic situation make a legitimate business owner to acquire such properties?

If I don't own a car before 30, I would consider myself a failure

How many cars do you have now?

Op, where'd you copy that stuff from?

haabidah666:

30, 40 or 50 as long as you draw breadth, there is no valid reason to see yourself a failure.

A person who sets a deadline for determining failure is already a failure.

Looks like you're talking to yourself.

You think coming online to put the same pressure you and your people put on you will work for all.

Sorry sir.

Anyway I hope you're relieved now that you pour everything out.

Good advice anyway

See pressure!
I will be 35 in April 29
See pressure
