Some Risks People Take To Make Money In Tough Times by guobe(op):
When times are tough and there is no money, people tend to become desperate and take some risks to make money for themselves.
From students in secondary school to university students and even to workers are all risk takers.
These risks have landed alot of people in trouble while some were lucky enough to escape it.
One risk university students do take is impersonating during exams.
After a fee is agreed between both parties with the student that is not too sound academically or is not in the right frame of mind to write that paper or the course have been giving him or her tough time .
A decision is taken by the student to use an impersonator either external or internal as all die na die .
There was even a white film I watched of a guy impersonating for another person and something happened and he had to quickly submit his answer papers and ran away.
He was pursued and never caught.
For the workers one risk people do take is using money that was given to them to undergo a project is diverted to an interest yielding scheme .
If care is not taken,the money may fly into thin air and when the real owner comes knocking you will hear them telling stories which may result in police cases and lawsuits.
All in all one has to be careful in taking risks and also ensure these risks are calculated so that you don't get your fingers burnt.

Some risks can be rewarding, get to Chicago and become a dealer, forfeit money to the government when caught, then return to Nigeria and become the head of the country.

I didn't mention names o. After all Chicago no bi person name.

Honestly, it's wild how far some people will go when they're struggling. It's like, sometimes survival mode kicks in, and we make these choices that could really backfire. The whole exam impersonation thing is crazy, but I get why some students feel like it’s their only option. It’s that pressure to pass at all costs, even if it means bending the rules. But like you said, luck plays a huge part, and not everyone gets away with it.

As for the workers diverting money into shady schemes—man, that’s a risky game. It’s easy to get caught up in the temptation, but one wrong move, and everything crashes down. It’s all about weighing the consequences. At the end of the day, some risks are just not worth taking, and yeah, it’s all about being careful with what you put on the line.

Many got to do what they got to do without weighing the consequences.
It's a survival instinct hoping it does not backfire but 80 percent of the time it backfires.
