Ok
FaAbData:
He was never poor, he doesn't understand what it means to lack money, his advice can't be balanced.
Let's hear from a poor man who later became rich or a rich man who became say this
He is saying happiness is free and up to you to decide not to put your fate in money. Even the poor man can be happy outside of money. You are the problem in a sense because to you one has to have money to be happy.

Get me clearly Bro
You must not have money to be happy, happiness can come from many things which money is one of such things. Money beings happiness.

You don't think a man who has all the money in the world is in a better position to tell you this.



A man who has experience knows A man without experience thinks he knows.
This is not an argument bro.
Money make available things that make you happy- just think about it..

He's not the only one in a position, I'm also in the position to refute him. Both the rich and the poor has their opinion about money

He doesn't have to taste poverty at some point in his life before qualifying to give this kind of advice because you don't even know if he's using himself as an example. What do you know about his life, his happy moments and sad moments to think that he's not qualify to advise in that regard?
Money makes available something that make one happy- this shouldn't be an argument. This shouldn't be an argument nau

The rich and the poor has. But. Sure the rich has a better opinion haven been there and done that. Even the wises man Solomon attest to it. if it so many rich people won't divorce. There is more to it than money I think that what.is being aimed at.

Very true and very much on point! The organic truth is if money brings happiness in marriage we wouldn't see what Ned and Regina are passing through today what about Bill Gate, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos etc who's today are all divorcee! As a partner marry someone who you are a friend to so as their could be compatibility through companionship and intimacy!
Money brings happiness, my friend please don't let anybody deceive you, just sit down quietly and reflect on this. Even the rich man in the bible, Jesus asked him to give out his money and wealth, and follow him, but he left unhappily.

I don't deal with analogy without empirical fact. Firstly, that parable is to tell us how men are materialistic and can submit to the love of the flesh than the spirit or you didn't compartmentalize it to know why it is call a parable? In addition, it is not coincidence that the foremost rich people as well the afformentioned wealthy men in the society are divorcee we all know that money does not bring happiness to us if not these men are what you can't define money without but still they are divorcee. And see many more who are rich but give testimony of how they have fallen into chronic depression! This is a strong practical reason I believe and any sane person should also that money is not the source of happiness but contentment, complacency and above all peace. Equally, you can't know the ecstasy, beauty and value of money more than Davido's father who has tested money and is even tired of it so you can't or not in position to tell us what money can do or not more than him. Finally, bro did the Bible said that Jesus asked the man to give up his money and he argued that if he does that his marriage will crash? Contextually what David's father is saying here is about marriage so quote me where the Bible said the man contest to give his money because it will bring friction with his wife! However, nobody is saying you shouldn't work and pray to have money. Conclusively, you have nothing to say if you can't backup your points with viable, physical and empirical facts full of premise and propositions to be logical. Thanks and peace!

Just give us money first and see how happiness will locate us. Even it will be following us like MTN everywhere we go.

Before you make that stupid quote, make sure you have money first.

Big men with their advice sometime cha grin.

If to say na one poor man wey no get idea of where him next meal go come from Yan this kind talk now, everywhere for don scatter..


But then again,what he said is nothing but the truth.... Happiness comes from within and from being contented with the little you have...And it doesn't mean you must be a billionaire first angry
You don't even have 10m in your account, what the man said up there is a fact.

Since they both have, we'll only get a balanced opinion for a man who was once rich but now poor or verse vasal.

Even the good book says, money answereth all things. How do you feel when all you needs and wants are answered, always, you'll feel happy nau, abi?

Ofcause there's more to happiness than money- nobody is arguing that. But money it self brings a whole lots of happiness

But it brings comfort, why are men still getting married for heaven sake? This bannies don't want you, they are only using you. I have a podcast where I explain why? Google my moniker.......
No if you marry from your class, you will enjoy it. Before I got married I had some things on ground, when I got married my wife also had her own things on ground, we both worked in the same sector back then. Before marriage I had a car and built a flat, after marriage, we had four cars, and two houses. wifey had one car and we got two as gifts. My networth increased astronomically. I just kept investing my salary and wifey has never asked for money till date. We only buy each other gifts. I will say marriage has been more than a blessing, and the kids make it trouble and fun

You don't think a grown man knows the usefulness of money in this world. Why are you trying to lecture a billionaire grown man about this. Who does not know the relevance of money. I think he is saying don't ultimately faith in it. Many go I to things believing once I get married to a rich man or make more my happiness is guaranteed. It can bring happiness to a degree yes but ultimate guarantee is not assured. Problem no de finish to start with. You may not have food or rent kind of problem but you will certainly have a new kind of problem.
