That is the dividend of patience and prolonged gratification.
Although I bought Ag Leventis of #500k in 2003.
Last year they got delisted and my 20 years of investment turned to zero.

Anyone with 1m in 1998 is currently a billionaire with or without coca cola. My fathers salary that year was 75k.

This is a very very long term investment. Life is too short.

Warren Buffett earns $2.23 million daily from his $25 billion Coca-Cola investment through Berkshire Hathaway's 400 million shares, generating $816 million annually from a $2.04 per-share dividend.
What a wise investment that has proven to be for this old wealthy man. A global brand of value like Coca-Cola that maintain same status over declares are so rare to come by.

This is wrong, 1800% return means your money multiples by x18, so the correct present worth is N18,000,000

What of AIT shares? Around the late 99s, AIT danced all over Nigeria selling shares. Till today, AIT has not paid me dividends for the shares I bought.

Stock trading (shares) and bitcoin trading (buying and holding or little sales) are two businesses that I tried, and deep down I lost lot....virtually everything I have saved
(despite the total money I lost...it is small savings of mine).

Since then, I promised myself not to try those two line of business. it is not for me. Another line of business I will try once more before conclusion is Forex trading.

The most important thing is for someone to find his line of business that his profit making is greater than his loss. There is a niche for everyone.

Gambling, it is not a line of business. It is madness to make money legitimately, and invest it in gambling (virtual and football predictions) all in the quest to get rich overnight. Many has lost it, and would turn around to blame village people.

Build your wealth gradually rather than gambling over 30 percent of your salary trying to get massive rich....My little advice to people in such line of ludo playing (gambling ) all in the name of investment.

NB: Tried learning programming, but got to realise that , that line of study/work is also not for me.
Don’t trade! Always hold. Invest and get out of it. Think where next to sink money.

Any investment you doing, use an average of 10 years.

Your biggest weapon is patience.

Please don't deceive people into this gamble of a stock, because I was deceived by buying intercontinental last public offer of one thousand shares in 2007, for my son but after seventeen years, one thousand naira was given as dividends.

Please is it that the Bank failed me or the money failed me.

Please be kind enough to tell people this is Coca-Cola United States and not NBC Plc Nigeria , both are coca cola stocks selling in different countries. If this is not done, another generation might waste God given opportunities in a fruitless gamble to get rich
Let them keep deceiving gullible people.

You want to go into Forex trading, if I read right. What is stock and Bitcoin trading? Is it not like Forex trading? Are they not all tradable? Guy, you will cry if you try Forex trading too, just as you have cried trying stock and Bitcoin.
The only way to succeed in Forex trading is through proper education and a proper mindset. Well, I wish you all the best.

I have zenith Bank shares since 2007 and it has been serving me well. Now imagine those who bought presco and seplat at below 50 naira then.

Presco is 1480,seplat is above 4000 per share.....

I just dive into forex market this year and I’ve been making research about it. I can say also that the forex market industry is also manipulated but there is a lot of money there. Before going into it make sure you study to its core if not what you faced in those previous investments will likely repeat its self

The public should beware of misinformation like the above. Do your research don't allow stupid fools to scam you of ur hard earn money.

NBC shares and Nigerian Stock Exchange have been a conduit for scamming the public since thieves such as Ndi Okereke-Onyiuke,Dangote took over since 2000-2010 upward. These two wrecked the lives of shareholders. My family was a big victim of their greed and kleptomaniac behaviors.


It shall never be well with them all.
I like how people come to counter what seems to glitter in the eyes of people because there is always an other side to all this things , which can end a persons life if proper information is not gotten

programming is becoming obsolete thanks to AI, the worst thing is I didn't earn a penny with that skill, and I feel I wasted years learning something that ai is now doing in few seconds just by receiving specific commands, I wouldn't feel the need to stress myself if I were you because it's not even worth it anymore, the reason you're not learning it is because instead of just trying to understand it you'd rather remember and cram codes, these days AI even debug wrong lines of code so why are you wasting your time cramming syntax and codes, understand what it's all about, know how to build things, know data structures and how things work in the backend, just understand it, you'll be fine, they're several tools you can use when coding, even newbies can code now.
My little advise to you —— 1. A person who uses AI for coding without coding skills
2. A person who uses Al for coding with Coding skills

Don’t give up

Get a mentor with good track record when delving into forex . A physical training is advised.
I just finished learning candle sticks and market structure in less than 2 months and I can identify support n resistance, dd&supply zones , major chart patterns and trendlines .
Still learning aggressively.
Get a mentor ! Forget all these online traders who always show cybertrucks and Lamborghini.
Keep using your live account to practicalise till you become good .
It will take you at least 6 months to become a good forex trader
Thats my take

Seek knowledge first before investing, some stocks are for price appreciation and others are for dividend, as a newbie you supposed go for blue chip stocks.

This bull run people made money trading Nigerian stocks on Ngx
