Stay away from broke women, you will achieve a lot in life.

Leaving banking job for academics.

Gambling
... don't even think about starting it

Cleanthes:
Going to university

Na you go study ye ye course nah

Hezzyluv:
Falling in love to the extent of buying fone for a girl. Easy buy for that matter ooo. And the broke girl dey expect me to always call her.

No matter what you do, never date a completely brokgirl. Especially, when entitlement mentality come join the tin.

You are very right

bigdawg7:
Never date a girl from a broke family they are always in a relationship for survival not genuine love

Very true... Eyes don see shege

I don’t know know what I could call regret, I regret nothing cos I’ve always tried my hardest doing things right

What could I possibly regret??

Oh I remember

I regret being born in Nigeria

Getting married to a parasitic spouse... would have been in my right sense or a level playing ground.... SMH

NEVER EVER EVER FORGIVE A CHEATING GF OR WIFE.....The cheating behaviour can never stop

I voted for Buhari!

Telling people your destiny and future plans....like Joseph did to his brothers.

Sirchiboy:
Name one mistake you have made in life so someone else doesn’t do it.

Where do I start from, it's plenty!!!

Opportunity to join the police force then.

Trust no one, always verify especially when your money is involved

Prioritizing affection for a woman above work. Horrible, dastardly error. Men, never do that.

Aborting the children I should have had today when I was in the university with my girlfriend then in school, about six abortion... Today I'm close to 50yrs, no wife no kids... My greatest regret😭

Sirchiboy:
Name one mistake you have made in life so someone else doesn’t do it.

when you blow, never settle for a girl you dated when you were nobody.

Unless you are absolutely sure. E get why

1. Nigerians: Allowing APC deceive them with Buhari twice and now Tinubu.

2. Me: Going for HND instead of an outright B.Sc, you will suffer tire, can't advice anyone for that. Thank God I corrected mine by going for a B.Sc despite my age then.

koladata:
I don't even have any regret

Baba no regret, dey there dey deceive yourself!!!

If you start to dey hear "so if I don't call you, you won't call me" for your relationship. Just end am, no need to push am

Your slippers don cut already

Marrying out of pity and also marrying a man older than me with ten years

Double post.

You are good mennnnn, though I didn't vote them, but I can relate 😅😅😅

One? How about I give you seven?

1. I regret not being consistent.

2. Not facing my discomfort avoidance early. That thief has robbed me blind—time, growth, grit, relationships.

3. Not mastering software engineering in my early twenties. I like to bite more than I can chew. Too many interests, Jack of all fvckin trades... Shoudav picked one skill, mastered it like a god, then move the next one.

4. Not paying attention in school. It was a village school, my teachers were awful, and it was easy. But village school or not, I had textbooks. I just didn’t put in my best.

5. Not being ambitious enough. Not building a business after school and the first two jobs. I would have failed, almost certainly but I also would have since learned what I'm learning now. My money game weak when I should’ve been moving mad.

6. Not buying Bitcoin when it was the price of suya.

7. And oh—I missed my japa window. When it was cheap and easy.

Peakdesign23:
1. Most opportunities won't come twice.
2. Nobody really cares about you.
3. Don't try to please anyone but God.
4. As a lady, if your blood group is anything O, like O+, O- do not hesitate to get married early because child bearing might be difficult in your late 20's and thirties. unless you don't really care about kids. Avoid abortion at all cost while you're young!
5. Avoid anything friends!
6. Just because someone is smiling with you doesn't mean that they love you, perhaps if you see what's in their heart, you'll forever avoid them.
7. Don't just assume that connection will come to you. Go out! Meet new people, anything good can come out of it.
8. Don't ever take your security for granted, wherever you live, make sure it's well secured, don't keep your pots of cooked rice or whatever close to your kitchen windows. Even the neighbours aren't to be trusted sometimes.
9. Whenever you call any electrician or anyone to come and fix something in your house, do not be so quick to leave, stay there with them and monitor every thing. Don't give them food, let them work and leave.
10. Never tell people your sources of income or what you earn, not even family members.


Let me stop here for now.

The part in your point 9 "Don't give them food, let them work and leave. Please can you explain more on that, because I'm one that always make sure I give food if the work involved long hours.

franchasng:
Not leaving Nigeria very early in life. I should have been talking about retiring from anything work or business if I had left Nigeria at say 23 years of age.


Not digging gold when I got married. If I had married the politician daughter they recommended and linked me to, I would have been at least a House of Reps member today. But I felt I didn't want to marry someone whose father would be influencing my marriage, that was a huge mistake. If you see such opportunity as a single young man reading this, please grab it fast, all those rubbish mentality I had then was a huge mistake jareh, their influence will not last forever, at most 10 years.


To all single guys reading, whenever you want to marry, please if you see gold dig it very well. Love is a fallacy, don't marry just because of love or physical beauty or any other nonsense reason like big nyash, sex, etc. The girl's parents and family status matters a lot, if you think you dont need it now, you will need it tomorrow. Look at Ebuka Obi, he dug his gold perfectly by going for Young Shall Grow Motor's owner daughter. Even if Ebuka likes today he can squander all his wealth, his father-in-law's wealth will still keep his children wealthy for life because Young Shall Grow will definitely will a lot of assets to his daughter, Ebuka's wife and even her kids, I will do same for my daughter and her kids.



And to the young graduates still claiming Nigeria will favor me, continue deceiving yourself, your parents said the same thing, all the wealthiest Nigerians you see today once migrated abroad or lived abroad, majority of them, so if you see any opportunity to leave Nigeria, do so fast, the earlier the better for you. Leave fast, work, save, invest back in Nigeria via real estate, hotels, nightclubs, lounges, gym centers, avoid rentage building investment.


Also look for a trusted relative or friend, there is always one or two trusted relative or friend that wont rip you off, work with him or her, leverage on the two locations you know; the developed country you live and Nigeria by buying used things there, load in a container, add some tokunbo cars and send to Nigeria to resell....over time hire or rent or build a warehouse in a good city location, so you will be known for that and you will be sending these used items with container on regular basis and you have carved out a business niche for yourself to keep you busy when you decide to retire back in Nigeria.

Good,
I can be a business partner in Nigeria Incase you know anyone that want to go into sending used materials to Nigeria

Axis313:
Na trust.
Some people I took as good friends and confidants really do me strong thing.
Omo,I no fit trust anybody in this life again,no matter who you are.

We are on the same boat

Procrastination ran we street so badly....still reeling from the effects.

Sportybet and Ponzi scheme

Not getting married in my 20's

BeardedMeat:
Op didn't say you should give advice Juliet, he said tell us your experiences that others may learn.

Now, can you tell us your experiences or you want to send it tmy DM?

What do you call this please? An advice borne out her mistake and experience.Is it everything that one would be interpreting one for word? When some of you would be running away from attending English classes in your younger days!
