Go to ajegunle or any rugged ghetto and start a ganja café.

Lit it like mosquito coil and charge people token to inhale and exhale. Lol.

That kind of business is what Tinubuonomics has left as options for 500k for most.

Though there are good things to do with such amount.

Buhari once boasted about lifting 90million nigerians out of poverty with N5,000 each.
Is it legal here in Nigeria or one must run it on a low-key?

Gladyou find it interesting.

Sit down and personally do the calculations. Money kept is dead money. Always keep your money working.
It’s always good to have cash in the bank bro, regardless..

MemoriesAndMe:
I have done it for several men in the past and even start businesses for men whenever im in Nigeria. Im actually helping one of my high school friends with a bus he needs for his transportation business right now. I onlt have to make one last payment next month and the bus is for him and his family. So, its not because shes a lady.

What made me help her is because shes a single mom, I knew her and her hobby from over 25 years ago in Nigeria, but her hobby died and she has a son to raise. I dont have anything with her.

I just dont like it when it becomes constant demands for money with nothing to show for it.
If you have known her and her hubby for over 25 years, the child must be in his 20s. Make he go hustle na. How old were Rema and Wizkid when they started providing for their families? They were teenagers undecided

As for me, I nor dey help anybody again. Make all man fend for himself. A friend asked me to lend him a huge sum of money that he desperately needed and promised to pay back in a month. Three months passed and he lock up like say nothing happened. I then started reminding him say how far na. Do you know the guy said I was disturbing him and then blocked me. It’s been over a year now and he still hasn’t unblocked me and I still never see my money cry

After that experience, I say I will never help anybody again. Even if their pikin dey die. Na dem sabi angry

During covid period I borrowed money to pay my rent because salary isn't forthcoming, since then I have been recycling the debt.

If I have 500k I will clear the debt, save for my rent and also buy a small computer for work

I will add to my savings or capital and quit being a salary earner to invest and stay focus on my own business.

I believe in less down 8 months I'll show appreciation to the giver or perhaps do the same favor for someone else too.

We rise by lifting others.

I need that 500,000 Naira🌱🌱. I will invest it by buying an acre of land in a remote area of Ogun or Oyo State. Then will be planting budded Oranges, Mango, Grape Citrus and Soursop gradually for the next one year on the land. Fruits are going to continue getting more expensive in Nigeria as the years roll by. The 500k is just to buy the land and a few seedlings. I will take part of my salary to keep buying seedlings every month to take to the land and plant 🙏. Na my plan be that 🙂.
You mean to buy or to lease

which business is that?
a lot sir/ma.
I just went to a place to attend to NYSC guys in camp, close to the camp, people were gisting how they got a spoilt bicycle and just made some repairs(including fixing tyres and few other parts totalling 25k(the cost of purchase and repair).I already know the value of the bicycle when it enters the state capital.that was when I knew there is a hidden business there which I must unravel.fast forward to the next one, I went my self and got a lot of things including bicycles that wouldn't need any repair.i took them down to state capital I made a gain of 5-15k per one.even fans I got for 8k I sold it comfortably for 12k.baba there is business everywhere.look well well sir, u go see am.
I don tell the guy we dey run am together (because me I have a stable govt job )make we rent shop specifically for it because the place I currently put them I no wan issues with the owner of the shop.100k shop meaning I will be paying say 8k per month as rent with rest of mind.Even if na 50/100k per month be my gain .that's extra stream of income for me and also I don help person wey no get stable job too.its a win win for us both.
I even noticed there what some dudes that came there to get condemn rechargeable fans before u know it they combine different parts and it start working well with even solar smiley and will be like touris new .something that should ordinarily be 150/180k will now be sold for 30/35k .if that kind one enter where people that know the value sees it, one can make 15/20k gain from it.
I also was able to understand okrika clothing business in another market, men will get this things say 1500/2k per one, like new clothes(some of them hv never been use at all) ooo from okrika bale, them go enter state capital and be selling it sweet 5k per one .they beg and negotiate with the owner of the bale to allow them only select first as he/she is opening the bail. So they will pick those new ones before others will be allowed to select too.
People like packages like this because majority of Nigerians can't afford brand new tear leather things because of the economic realities.
