It's not easy but not taking a risk is a risk itself .
Hopefully one day I will have time to tell it all here

Those are the people who understood the future of crypto back then. As at that 2015 or so, Bitcoin was not up to $10k cos I could remember that a friend really pestered me to buy but my naivety wouldn't just allow me.
We all know the values of that same Bitcoin, dogecoin, ethereum etc today.

I congratulate him all the same. Information is power.

When I was still in Nigeria 2023, I resigned from my job of 400k monthly to pick up another multinational job of 250k. People talked me down and I was also scared too. My decision is because the new job offers sponsorship abroad to their staff at interval and I had the plan of travelling but I don't have the finance. So I see the company as sure bet for me to use achieve my travelling plans.

Sorry short, I travelled as planned and I have been in the UK since 2023 till now.

Lesson: if I had consider the salary of 400k compared to that of 250k, probably I would have been facing Tinubulation now.
You dodged a bullet...oh I mean you dodged a bomb. No matter how people explain Tinubulation to you, it cannot be as close to how it really is. Within 2 days, 390k of my income disappeared on nothing really to show for it. No bulky foodstuff, just paying bills, bills, debts up and down. Fear Nigerian politicians and the ever-supportive citizens.

Pls use the money to japa and never play bet again ever after abeg.

I have won big money with bettings on like 2 to 3 occasions, but sporty used it to collect times 20 from me. It looks like juju. Omorr, run and never return to betting.

Left a toxic relationship with my son. Relocated from the north back to S/W my base. Face the society's shame on single mother. Suffered for 1 years working for unfortunate bosses in Ibadan. Relocate again back to Lagos. Started life afresh doing my online vendor business. Trusting God, blocked every form of relationship. Now I'm living the kind of life I've prayed for. I can afford every damn thing I want. Being a single mother is never the end of the world. Be yourself and NEVER EVER LIKE NEVER IN YOUR WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE DEPEND on men for survival! You can be whatever you want to be.
Nevertheless, Respect any man that respects you 👌

Please, I need a guild lines in crypto trading. Can you guide me pls?

Pierocash:
lol. Do they really make good money in Yahoo? No! and it won't be that fast like mine even if they finally make something substantial.

Just the right knowledge is what you need. Celestial church is good in hospitality when it comes to that. I worshiped with a different church, but they couldn't shelter me, but celestial church did and where still feeding us even without been their member. I was in their shelter still going to my own church and they never complained. It was members that started complaining that we weren't worshipping with them even while staying in their accommodation, that was when the shepherd told us to always join them after we return from our own church. Gave us white garments. That was how we do joined them after 1st service in my own Church

Funny enough but that's just the truth
Reverseng:
Slowly Letting go of my pride.

It only prevented me from getting loved because I was scared that if people knew me, they might hurt me and or they might find out that I'm not that interesting after all and finally leave grin
This led to series of games of Manipulation that made me appear to be what I wasn't. I ruined a lot of relationshipssssss this way

Pride prevent people from loving me because it built a wall around me that prevented people from knowing me.
One Love what or whom they know. Predictability/being predictable to a degree is a form of showing love.

If people don't know you because you make it hard for them to, they get uninterested and leave.

If people know you but they find out you're not as interesting as they thought you'd be, they'll still leave

If you do, you die. If you don't do, you'll still die. Isn't it better to do and die grin

Hehe... Take this with due diligence.

Left a "guaranteed" job with low pay and pursued personal development with skills in programming and brand management.

Suffered for two years on savings alone 🤧🤧.... Had my first big break which profit paid more than I could have gotten from the previous job.

Today, I have a full-time gig that pays almost x4 of the job I left, and I have the skill and value to pursue freelance side hustle and will one day launch my own agency.

If you take steps like this, mid way as that thing goes... "Yakubu manage. You will feel it like you want to dhie, but you will not dhie " and it will definitely pay off

You ma sef. You didn't show respect or gratitude for the help the Cele church rendered you.

Did they have to tell you to worship with them before you'd know to? The so called church you kept attending couldn't raise a finger to help accommodate you o.. smh
My thoughts exactly. And mind you I don't believe him. How can you stay in their accomodation for free and you waited to be told to join them in service. He's only trying to dissociate himself from celestial church for fear of backlash from people here who were already beginning to raise eyebrows and for what exactly? Is celestial church worse than the others? Mtcheeew for him.

For you to save 1.2m in one year meant you were saving 100k per month. What kind of barbing job will give you enough to save 100k monthly because you have to be earning like 400k to successfully save 100k monthly. Anyway, it might be possible since you were not paying rent thanks to the Cele Church, you were not paying bills either thanks to the same church. And you didn't have a family to take care of or send money back home. It was just you without rent, girlfriend and bills. Because that's the only way this your story adds up to make a meaning.
lol! A lot of folks often think barbers don't make money. But that is not correct, saving 5k everyday as a barber then was far far possible. Today, barbers can save 10k+ daily without stress.

I was saving over 3500 - 4000 daily. I was paying bills, I left the cele church after one month, I was sleeping inside the shop for the first 3 months. I rented my first self-contain at Alakahia close to upth at the fourth month for 120k , my girlfriend was pregnant then and gave birth shortly after.

So you see, i was paying bills and was saving.

Barbers make money more than some bankers , but the problem with most of them is womanising, they lavish money on women a lot , reason you see them looking broke , reason they have poor saving culture. I would have been like them, but because I already had a pregnant girlfriend and baby to carter for, sense enter me by force

Leaving my town and travel to Akure to learn computer engineering. It's not easy at first. Sometimes I go 24hrs without food. I sleep in a friend house. But I'm happy for the skill of the computer engineering and looking forward to learn a digital skill now and took another risk to Abuja, Lagos or PH. I will forever be a risk taker till I made it.

You distrust Cele but you can enjoy their kindness. The so called Churches you trust can't help your predicament. See the stupidity.

Which one is the future now?
Hmmm, my brother, I don't know o. If I know, I will also key into it.

Also remember that there were some crypto coins that also came out that have also gone down and all the investments in such cryptos wasted. An example is The Billion Coin (TBC). Even the recent Pi Network, I know some people that bought at the rate of #3,000 when it was launched and today the value is less than #200.

However, to be safe, you see all these ones that have such value of $0.0000005 or so, if you see the one you like, you can just buy like 10 different ones. That's a 100k. I am sure, at least, one of them will get close to $0.1 in less than 5 years and that makes you a multimillionaire.

This is not an advice or suggestion. It is strictly my personal opinion and I can be wrong! Therefore , it should not form the basis of investment for anybody. Let's be well guided pls.
