Worst Decision You Made That Affected Your Life This Year by Sirchiboy(op): 10:57am On Dec 03, 2025
Earlier this year , I vow to start up a small business.
I set up a charging and pos business together .
I spent close to 1m plus to start the business.
I put the business in the hand of my female Friend to manage and balance me every week..
It was complain upon complain I got from her.
Every month month charger got burnt , this and that.
After 6 months I decided to close down the shop.
And the only thing I could sell was just charging socket and gen to recover.
Guess what I sold them for only 250k.
Omo I wan run mad.
1m plus for put for treasury bills or stocks .
Or carry am go parther with loan company ..

Life no easy

Bro,your worst mistake wasn't putting the business in the hands of your woman,but the fault was your werey woman who misappropriated your business money...

Since I set up my own,I placed it completely in the hands of my banny ,cuz personally I wouldn't have done it on my own......But guess what? It's been about 4 months and the savings she has made so far is mouthwatering....

My banny made me to realize that not every woman out there is a werey,even tho the wereys among them are the majority.....Na why I no dey joke with her..

Dem plenty ooooooo but two of dem stand out.
1. Continue playing sport betting: you see sport betting, E fit make Dangote or Elon Musk ask for urgent 2K if care is not taken.
2. At a point, I relented on my DNA test campaign and most men wey marry non-virgins go have to pay for my mistakes.

What do I even know sef aside enlightening my fellow men nationwide with the good news of DNA test

Embarking on a project bigger than my business cheesy, I saw shege—business almost crashed; to chop come be wahala.

But thank God I am through with the project, and business is slowly recovering.

May God help me.

My children or siblings will not make such a mistake again.

No regrets! Every decision makes you wiser
Re: Worst Decision You Made That Affected Your Life This Year by SixSeven: 2:59pm On Dec 03, 2025
Listening to negative voices. It will keep you down. I realized it was all in my head. We suffer more in imaginación. So if you ever have doubtful thoughts or fear that something will happen in future, erase that thought and combat the fear. Don't die in the hunger games of fear, you won't make any progress. I got my head out of this worrying thought after 2 weeks and I was so sad that I looked down on all I had accomplished and let fear sip in 🤔

It made me learn Murphy's Law.

All my mistakes are lessons, however, the most profound lesson I learnt was "your health is your biggest asset".

Many illness will be prevented if you eat enough fruits daily and get good rest.

In all you do, take care of your health!


Meanwhile......

Investing in lands instead of cars.


If I had known that cars will become diamond in Nigeria, I wouldn't have invested in purchase of lands in some state city outskirts, I would have just bought plenty Toyota Corolla 2003 to 2006 model and some Lexus, by now I for de compete with Aliko shocked cheesy



Lands no longer appreciate in Nigeria, except lands in already highbrow city areas, but right now, buying lands outside main city areas in Nigeria is a waste of investment because they now take forever to appreciate!!
