Bro, you have to be strategic and intentional with taking care of yourself as a man.

I used to deny myself some luxury things because I wanted to have some money left to cater for families and extended families, including some projects I was handling. Despite the fact that I was trying to be economical, I saw myself, especially my wife, spending thousands of naira on my children to buy good clothes for them. I sent monies to extended family members, yet, kept on denying myself of some good things. I had to put a stop to it, starting with my resignation from my place of work in 2016 to go solo and set up my own independent consultancy as the 9-5 job was taking a great toll on my health and well being.

My wife objected because she was the number one beneficiary of the generous emolument I was receiving as staff but I had to explain myself that I needed to rediscover myself and focus on myself, seeing what many men that had worked hard for their families faced. In my house, i have a personal fridge in my room, where I stock it with all kinds of fruits and vegetables. I go out on my own to enjoy myself, buy the best clothes I could offer, wear the sneakers that I have always cherished and above all, have all the time myself doing what I like as I don't report to any boss.

I have said it before, even though my annual consultancy fee has not matched my last emolument as a salaried person, I am still far happier now than I was as staff. I have to manage my costs and live within the means of what my consultancy is bringing. Thank God, I was able to invest wisely while still a salaried worker, it helped to sustain my current status. My health and overall well-being are far better and I live a far better quality of life.
Thank you sir!

These info is either very criminal or naive, it all depends on where you’re from and your interests. There’s no such thing as being one tribe by tribe and being another tribe by culture. Yoruba are a tribe and that tribe gave birth to our culture. Bukola Saraki is 25% Yoruba at best and that’s a statement of fact.
Thanks for calling me criminal and naive


Can't you guys make your points without being abusive?

Am sure you will deny abusing me

Grow up, son

According to who? Define irresponsible and responsible in this context.
Those are the men that eat well outside and little give or nothing to his family to feed, school fee, books, uniform no but would rather buy beers at bar and lastly the wife would pay rent to landlord and bargain to pretend they have paid.when he eventually paid the money will be refunded to the wife

Which Bukola’s mom is from Oyo? His mother is a Jamaican.
Studying Arabic does not turn you to Fulani. Olusola Saraki said it with his mouth that they’re fulani and I will take his word over yours.
Where did I deny that OIusola Saraki isn't Fulani when his father is clearly from Mali? According to the records, Bukola's mother is from Oyo. Do you have any contrary evidence to that claim?

Again, Bukola’s mom is a Jamaican and his father said he’s fulani.
