Lol...he never had any cause to mix garri & palm oil with little salt.

Your head dey there

Very impossible....even Dangote, Otedola etc.....Rotimi Amaechi even said sometime ago that he's hungry. Hungry not for food but for that deep thing you need so badly and couldn't get immediately .....A billionaire could be hungry for a particular car he just bought in the US and awaiting shipping to Lagos and he's so hungry and yearning to have that car immediately for a function tomorrow. He's hungry and eager......so, everybody gets hungry in life....right now, I am hungry to go watch the first match in the coming world cup in few days time.....hungry because I couldn't get a ticket to buy ......

You envy such people from afar...


But many of them are depressed and unfulfilled with life.


A man has to have that hunger and thirst to live that makes life- life.

Many of them turn to drugs in the quest to create that hunger and thirst artificially.


You think its easy just waking up in life and having everything you want at your beck and call without hustling for it... just wake up and everything is set on the table perfectly the way you want them- they have their own struggles... rich people problems!

Which struggle is worse than hunger

zed7:
How do we tell people without money that money isn't everything? They'll never understand until they have money.

Health, peace and having people who genuinely love you is far more than money.

You don't necessarily need riches, just have enough for your needs and a little extra for some wants.

Until you have money

Money remains everything until I have money


In this life nothing beats having money

The options it gives you

Rich people do what they like
Poor people do what they don't like cus them no get choice

They know.

I once had a friend who asked me on how does it feel like when someone is hungry? . Meaning since the dude was born,he has never been hungry . Omoh,I just weak when I heard him. Cuz people like us who were born and bred on the ghetto street certainly understands how and what hunger feels and looks like.

Dude was pulling your leg sha. You must feel hunger to know when to eat next, same with thirst.

I will not allow my son to stay with me until he's 18 years. I will give him out to some one to train him the hard way. Because if he notice that I'm a millionaire he will spoil quick quick. My street in Canada is full of impunity

Are you a millionaire in Naira of a millionaire in US dollars, let's start from there?

Different people, different worries

You don’t need to lie if you want to create an example.

Even in the ghetto, there are levels to poverty. Some are worse than others. Life is not the same for everyone. People will be quick to say “variety is the spice of life,” yet hate to acknowledge that not everyone will receive the long end of the stick.

Face your life, better your situation and try everything to make sure your children end up better than you. Comparison will always be a thief of joy.

I am from a privileged home. I do not feel lucky. My life is normal. I’ve never known what it is like to suffer. My mother tried simulating the condition when we were kids. She gave up when she realized the effort was pointlessly futile. My father rose from poverty. Me and my siblings are the first set of old money (dad’s money). His fear of poverty is what motivates him to stay rich. As for us, we built from there.

No wonder!

So that 's the reason why you were pretending to be a female when you registered your Nairaland account newly

I can't help but to think do rich kids born with silver spoons in their hands, knows how lucky they are? That if not luck they could have been one of us bred in the ghetto, staying face me I slap you.. attending public schools and it's almost certain they wouldn't make out of the ghetto

Now this is not a hate topic, I'm just in cloud 9 right now and the thought just hit me. Do otedola kids, adenuga sons..Adelekes.. even our very own seun kids knows how lucky they are.. because I know someone who is 45, never worked in is entire life but since he was a boy he receives salary from 3 of is father companies before month end without sweating. You might see him this afternoon, and the next day he might be out of the country to go see is friend and be back the following day.

My question still remains are this set of people SELF AWARE how lucky they are or they just see it as a normal thing?

Please remove Kiddwaya from that list. Kidd is a poser. Shishi he no get

Rich kids have the highest probablity of turning bad and bring their family name into disrepute.

Coming from a rich background could be a curse rather than a blessing

If una lik mk una no go hustle fr una kids make una dey talk of unfulfilled life nd the rich cry...2027 na dey poor go cry pass cos this rich kids got fly out nd chilling in polanco, y politicians go finish una life, don't hustle now to soft ur kids life now

hmm,me am not lucky enough here,when my father was about to pick that was when death struck him and mum,since that age fourteen that I became orphan,I know what life is about now 38years,the death of them derail me big time,now thank God for life shall not begging but not fully established.

Keme4Real:
I have always known how lucky I am

Though I've never been hungry cuz my parents couldn't provide or something but go go still realise say there are levels to these things.
Those rich kids mostly don't reason about people like that, that's why we think they are spoilt brats cuz they didn't grow up in the same environments and under the same conditions as others.
Person wey never enter public transport in Nigerian, even abroad sef na executive chauffeur dem dey use, how you wan make that person reason with person wey gats waka like 2 kilometres with short cuts just so tfare go reach .
When I was in predegree in 2004, there was this girl and her cousin wey be say na bowls of most popular kinds of soup and and stew her parents or driver dey come drop every 2 weeks ; while there those of us wey dey even feed a few friends that really do not have anything to eat out of our sardin fish stew .
Make we just hustle and pray and teach our children the best way we can

It varies a lot.
Some children of wealthy families are very aware of their,advantages Others may not fully appreciate. People tend to treat their own upbringing as "normal." it's often a result of limited comparison.
Research in psychology suggests that people generally underestimate how much their circumstances have contributed to their success and opportunities.
It's also worth noting that being financially privileged and feeling "lucky" are not exactly the same thing. Some wealthy children recognize their material advantages but may still struggle with family pressure, expectations, loneliness, or other personal challenges.

You're sending allawee home while they are receiving allawee from home... Life no balance

Omo if they come born you first again or you're one of the oldest you go suffer, you never chop but they expect you to shoulder responsibility, to whom much is given much is expected but in the case where you singlehandedly raised yourself nko? Life no just balance.

IT'S THOUGHTS LIKE THESE THAT WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD YOU INTO KIDNAPPING AND ARMED ROBBERY

You are very wrong,
Statistics has shown that poor are more susceptible to drugs
Rich people can take on to hubbies if they feel bored
Hunger poverty has no justification it is absolute damnation

trust me they don't know.i have lived for a while with such family and they will think you are mad if you tell them many people go to bed hungry.why will they not when one room in the mansion is a packing store for milk.tea.chocolate.sugar.butter.jam.infact everything for breakfast in cartons.while another room is for tinned foods.wine.yogurt.juice.another room has 5 deep frezzers.one for more than 15 types of soup.one for different types of stew.one for meat.one for fish.infact you might eat egusi soup and next time you will eat egusi again will be next week but you will eating soup everyday.they have rooms for shoes.rooms for suits.rooms for perfume and cosmetics. If the chairman is around and nepa takes light.if security start the sound proof it will not be off till the chairman leaves that house even if nepa brings light in the next hour or the chairman stays 3 days it will be on.nonstop until he leaves the house.what I witnessed was eye opening that I strongly believe some people are already in paradise on earth. Imagine my age mate that time had his own detached mansion in the compound with 3 servants and private beach overlooking the atalantic ocean.every child has his own mansion inside the compound. My God.amechi nwa ohafia your papa get money I beg.

I hope you realize I wasn't talking about physical hunger and thirst...?




Hobbies don't quench such hunger and thirst. How many poverty striken people who haven't had a meal can actually afford to buy drugs?

And I never justified hunger or poverty!

Samantha125:
Sometimes you can have all the money in the world and still be depressed, just look at Elon Musk's transgender daughter, she chose to disown her own father rather than live by his rules.

King Edward abdicated the throne to marry a twice divorced commoner.

Princess Mako also gave up her royal status and title to be with her commoner husband and she's now living an independent life in the USA as an art historian.

Many of these rich children didn't even have the luxury of being raised by their own parents and were subjected to strict upbringings.

Please stop referring to that boy as a "she"

Poverty na total curse make I tell you
No one wants to taste poverty, you won't trade a life of prosperity for a life of damnation except you are curious and you know what curiousity does? It can kill the cat.

of course we do?but most don't. I didn't till I was like 25 yrs old and I was boasting to my cousin about my intelligence and potentials, he looked at me, laughing and asked if I was born in a village with a farmer as a father and my mum selling vegetables i will still talk like that.since that day i kneel or lie down in church during worship because God has been Good to me,my life has been easy since birth and am 50 years old. Which of God's favour can I deny, LORD AM GRATEFUL 🙏

And you think, working smart is an antidote to getting rich?

Well, I don't know if you just start ur life afresh, or you opportune to have gotten rich early, if it's later, you are one of examples, Op is asking of. ...........if they know how luck they are.


Meanwhile, if you not yet rich,.... You will soon realize, working smart not always guarantee riches.

Engineers, medical doctors, professors, business minded person, entrepreneurs....... people are into above professions and still struggling financially and some are into them making waves.

They are working not working smart, working smart is having your product, being the product, not a mere tool to get to the product...most want instant gratification, not ready to put in the work required, not ready to be disciplined...your everyday life habits, behavioural patterns, what you proffess and people you listen to matters.

I didn't mention rich, I used the word wealth, riches come and go, wealth lasts.

I have mobilised billions in the course of my business interactions, sometimes it's good to listen, read comments and move on, if you don't understand ask for clarification, no be to do oversabi, it will expose your cluelessness...you can be working but not working smart, there are a lot of smart people not working smart....it's all about optimisation.

By your response I see your thinking still myopic, I hope my response helps the youths out there.

It’s funny how people think drug addiction is exclusive to the rich. It affects the poorest communities just as much.
