Amount of work you do is not a measure of how rich you will be....

A rich man's joke is understood differently from that of a poor man

Make poor man no follow this advice oooo, if not he will be poor forever

Of course he is right........ he sleeps while the money flows in.

Anything wey big man talk must make sense and people must laff...

Me dey roll for ground now...wow Mr. OTE$, you are too funny 😁 😂 😀 🤣

if you dont know the background story, you wont understand the joke

when Otedola was a young man he was already succesful and felt he was very comfortable just living off the bank interest of his deposits in the bank which at the time was 35% pa. Then one day his daughter's school teachers asked the pupils in the class what their parents did and his daughter said "my dad sleeps".....obviously when she goes to school every morning her father is still sleeping. When he heard this it caused him to rethink his life and that is what spurred him to become what he has become today.

I can hear mr eazi voice in tbe background hhmmmmm

What is left to do again as work than to be sleeping

Are you saying that Nigerians are generally noisy

He makes money even from his sleep. He's worked so hard, had sleepless night and is at that level right now. Pls if you are poor and still struggling get on your feet, don't go about sleeping ooo, if you do, the kind hunger wey go deal with you no go funny o

Why wouldn't he be sleeping. For someone who's worth 1.5 billion dollars. just give me 2 billion I'm rich forever. Na greed dey make person pack wealth wey your next of kin go finish in one week

YES nah. After inflating fuel subsidy for decades, and that is after inheriting the money his father stole as Lagos governor

You enjoy people’s wealth for a living but that is not for any body to be bitter about cost of us will be worst with opportunity

A rich man can sleep comfortably because his money is working 24/7 for him.

Riches come by with hard work and high favour....

But often the pathway to riches is paved with failure, disgrace, mockery, envy, trial, betrayal, etc.

REGINALD001:

Exactly. When one has the right investments you basically just do nothing but sleep while the money keeps pouring in

Nwaokunkpara:

Yes. His is the life of an investor and business man. The business dey run so na sleep naim he need now.

Den dey whine broke man...sleep for a living indeed 😹

Poor man don drop quote.... If u like no go work.... Life go hard u

He is definitely highlighting a part of his book, when his daughter was asked what his Dad does she replied " He sleeps all day". A turning point in the life of Fote.

Reality as we see it is somebody's vision as seen in a dream, so sleep well, dream well probably we'll get to live in your dreams.

He is indirectly mocking his paddy dangote saying sebi we warned you not to invest big time in that country to save yourself from sleeplessness, say see me now chilling in Monaco and all I do is sleep with peace of mind, no pengassan this, nnpc that etc.

Do you know that you can be prosecuted for adding sentence into a billionaire mouth. He said "I sleep." Not 'I sleep for a living'
Be guided! 😊

Excuse me sir
