Enjoy your youth, avoid getting random girls pregnant unless you're totally sure she is commitment - worthy AND you're having some reasonably steady income. Learn as much skills as you can, always be willing to get your hands dirty. |

Start investing early. Do not follow the norms. Dont use your first big hit to go build a house at your age, you burying money. Every drop counts! Nothing is too small. Fear women! |

MONEY247:All I can advise is, do not rely solely on your university certificate. Get your hands on something practical, hands-on experience. Employment today depends on what you know and the problems you can solve, not just your degree or its class. A first-class degree without any skills will be overlooked, while a third-class or HND holder with practical experience will get the job. Do not be ashamed to learn a trade after university, even if it’s painting, shoemaking, or anything else, because being your own boss is far better than working under someone. Stay away from betting no matter how sure the prediction is. Stay away from drugs, it will start to tell from 35 and above and saying Hello at a hospital will cost you nothing less than 5k. Stay away from crime! Remember that better in grave to Nigeria Prison. Believe in what you can achieve by your hands no by prayer! Remember orun ran eni ti oran arare lowo. Ire Ooo! |

CoronaVirusPro:I object to that. If the hit is big enough, they should build house and rent it out. It's a life time investment whatever things happen to the economy, he will continue get money. Many businesses as dying! |

Try to learn work, like house electrician, plumbing, phone or computer repairs, mechanic. Because E get why. Then try to safe enough, even if it will take you up to 3 years to save enough Japa to Europe or America for good future. Don't rush to do things or else you will end up in jail and spend so many years with nothing only regret will be your food when you're finally out. No knowledge is a waste, learn something today for future purposes. Avoid anything gambling it will ruin you totally, avoid friends who engage in it because with time they will ruin you with it. Never allow any woman to tie you down with love at this stage, it happened to some of the old men you no today that's why they end up poor. |

Be intentional about finding a woman that loves you...and you'd know when she's ready to spend on you unconditionally! ![]() |

otizs:How many years will they use to recoup investment if they build a house. A house is a long term investment and liability. You won’t recoup your investment in a minimum of 20 years before you even get to profit Do you know what you can do with money within that space of 20 years as a young lad? That’s the mistake many have made. Burying 50 million into the ground and waiting for 30 years to recoup their initial investments. |

Go School because School no be scam. ![]() Learn, learn, learn. If you can, start saving money. Be doing Ajo, even if it is 200 Naira Per day. As far as you're still twenty something. Don't invest emotionally in relationships except you're really sure about what you doing. Any Bleep up can set you back mentally. |

annayawchee:1) focus on your goals and your success 2) money isnt everything but is essential. 3) dont chase money, dont put any girl on a pedestal dont lose your focus because of a woman, understand them for what they are. both will find you if you focus on yourself. 4) Nobody truly cares about you. so make your self happy and do what is best for you. 5) be kind but dont be too nice. 6) listen to your dad, he is the only man that wants you to be better than him. 7) always have options have something to offer, nobody loves a man, you are "loved" for what value you add 9) marry a woman with your head not your heart 10) never marry a single mother or a daughter of a single mother. NEVER! 11) loyalty, trust honesty and integrity are very important. guard them religiously. 12) be wary of the company you keep. they go a long way to determine what you become in life. |

1. Never marry a lazy woman; if you see a lazy lady, please don't overlook her laziness and wife her. You will regret it. 2. Never depend on anyone 3. In whatever you do, always have a backup plan. 4. Lastly, if you aren't a thrifty person; make sure you join a register and well organised cooperative society. Irene oooo |

casualobserver:People assume a lot of things which are not necessarily true 1. Not every father is wise or a good father r wants gis son to be better 2. Anything you will eventually need like women and money, bro, you better chase it. Nothing you want will come to you, you will need to search and look for it and chase it Even the good book says he who finds a good wife, it doesnt drop in your laps, you search and find it Except you want to be more specific and say avoid overspending on women or carrying OS Waiting for something or someone to find you is passive and is the feminine role not for Men !!! |
