anonimi:brother, don't give me another career talk, being an entrepreneur myself, I know what it takes to start or co-own a business. There is always someone who can do it better than you. there is always a field of specialisation, different people will do different things. At the moment, both Facebook and Google can do it better than the whole of Africa.. |

GossipHeart:The truth is people do hit jackpot once in a while but the model won't work for a majority of others. Even at that I haven't heard of anyone who did nothing and money fell on their lap(aside inheritance, which someone else already worked for). At the bold, "hard work" doesn't always mean "muscle work". I don't think we can meaningfully compare the efforts of an olympic weightlifter with that of a sit at home coder. |

anonimi:If you live in America, i would have shown you the secret. You only need a laptop If you know Walmart, for example, Walmart sells a brand new laptop for $120 but on eBay and Amazon, people sell it for $350, that's pure $230 profit What you will do is go to Walmart website, download the picture of the laptop or any product and put it for sale on eBay, it will sell before 2 days, the buyer pays you $350, you go to Walmart website and order it for $120 and ship it to the buyer. This is called drop shipping I swear, last year December i made $10,000 in just a single day just sitting in my room |

yemmit90:Since he said he is "the laziest person on earth", one can assume that he is not hard working in the classical, general kind of way. He may be hardworking in a special way such as being a gigolo to sugar mummies old enough to be his grandma ![]() GossipHeart: shadrach77: |

Saintdix:Thanks , I hope you understand , until we fixed our access to affordable power or electricity infrastructure problem , it will be virtually impossible for Nigeria to produce people like Zuckerberg , can you imagine America had no electricity infrastructure or access to electricity power, there will be no facebook and other tech companies , Nigerians and her government have failed ( and still failing ) to realize this problem ..and that's why new promising start up companies fail (except you are mega rich to fund or generate power supply which will cost about 50 percent of your cost )...until you fix your electricity problem your dream is pipe in Nigeria |

GossipHeart:I thought you said you were "the laziest person in the world" and working hard does not make anyone a millionaire, right? Were you being lazy by doing the necessary RESEARCH on this drop shipping business and knowing what products fit into such scheme? Were you being lazy when you go online to Walmart website etc? You obviously do not know the difference between working hard AND smart with opportunities compared to simply working hard like a labourer without hope of any opportunity. To those who may have been MISLED by your first post on this thread, I say- www.nairaland.com/attachments/2855735_twooptionswallpaper10579600_jpeg618d634ba6258d93161d282181afdc68 |

Op thanks. Very nicely written article. The facts are also succinctly put. Good to know there are folks who still think and are truly exposed on nairaland. I like the ideology of a Global Citizen thinking global and acting local as well. Take Out: Recession or Boom, it doesn't last forever, entrepreneurs must keep thinking and innovating while keeping their people in mind. Cheers |

ooshinibos:Has America and western Europe ALWAYS had "electricity infrastructure or access to electricity power," ![]() Did they never use OIL lamps and charcoal/firewood to light and warm their houses? Did Facebook just appear out of the blues or it was built on existing, CONTINUOUSLY evolving technology starting (probably) with the telegraph then the telephone?

GossipHeart:Divine grace,knowledge and research, hardwork,focus, opportunity, courage to get things done by all means, are all essential, and it has made me the owner of a multimillionaira business empire at the age 19. Nigeria as a whole is a goldmine of business and investment opportunities, they are lots of critical sectors you can invest in as an entrepreneur, ICT, CONSUMER FOOD PRODUCTION, TRANSPORTATION, ADVERTISING, SALES, AGRICULTURE(the most diverse of all, they are thousands of business opportunities in Agriculture) and so many others. it depends on hw you look at things a glass might be half full and also half empty, it depends on your orientation, but you might v made it by not really working hard, but msure what you lacked in hardwork, was replicated in thinking, which is also essential. But all in all hardwork with good reasoning, planning and doggedness always pays. Talks of destiny (also connected to religion) is all bullshit, gnorant and lazy people say to justify their foolishness, stupidity and lack of resourcefulness. Thats why our productivity is very low as a country |

StephanieLuv:There is something called "enabling." That is when a third-party aids in the perpetuation/justification of someone's vices or shortcomings. In this case, he has provided himself as an enabler to the LAZY people who need reassurance that there is nothing wrong in their ways. Work hard lady, or forever be a slave. Sitting and hoping a knight in shining armor who drives a bullion van would scoop you up from rags to riches is insanity in itself. |

Saintdix:America is a aggresive settler-state with a birth defect that still haunts them today. The Black and Asian Native Americans were killed off to take away their land and resources and slaves & indentured workers were brought to build up the industrial base. These Black people were later economically excluded/expropriated for several generations. There used to be a Black Walk Street which was destroyed by the Whites. Apple Computer does not manufacture anything in the US. The prosperity you see in USA is welded to your poverty here. Why were they opposed to Ajaokuta Steel? I am not saying people there are not working hard. They do not play with work. |

StephanieLuv:Which statement of his in partcular? The one about being a millionaire without lifting a finger or without using his brains? I hope you are not thinking of using the natural boutique between your legs to make your own millions going by what you have as your dp and the link to your non-existent fake website ![]() [img]https://www.nairaland.com/avatars/h2jkhvqd63lgo1mkhe6z8dadq4d9nru01692130[/img] |

GossipHeart:lol if you read the article above, the writer did not say anyone should follow Mark's foot step, he only portrays Mark and other successful individuals in the write-up as an entrepreneur spirit driving people which means it only serves as an inspiration(so I was wondering what the -----What works for him will not work for you.----- stands for. And there's no how anyone will become a millionaire on earth without work hard And the definition of working hard for entrepreneurs is not wheel barrow pushing or driving... it means smart innovation and thinking |

ramalot:He is probably young, inexperienced, may be a bluff even. Now, I could excuse him for all that, but I can't excuse him for failing to read and grasp the true content and intent of the article -- especially the part that emphasizes 'evolve/adapt or die'. I learnt from experience; making millions at a young age is actually the 101 (anyone can get lucky . . . I got lucky back then, and got complacent and vain), sustaining it and growing it takes sheer hardwork, diligence, intelligence, perseverance, honesty, and a lot more, after which you just 'hope' for the best. |

anonimi:I hate to reply fools but i had to, if you think every thing is based on hard work why for more than hundred years now nobody could reproduce the wealth of ROCKEFELLAR. A big fool like you suppose to google the famous Rockefellar quote, because i know you are stupid let me quote it, he said "God gave me my Money" even the Bill Gates and Ortega are no match to his wealth. Thirdly fool am in Seattle Washington and the name of the website is in the picture you uploaded since you don't read at all.

GossipHeart:sometimes it's better to just pass a message without making too much emphases or on yourself. TBH you are not the first person to get your first million at 22, some got it earlier without working for anyone too, but trust me there's nothing like earning without working for anyone unless you are a thief or scammer. BTW: There's nothing like Destiny without hardwork. Stop misleading people like clerics |

GossipHeart:if anybody believe that this dude made Millions at 22 without doing any thing,you must be the most foolish person in this world. The advantage that mark zuckerberg leverage on is technology, which the country US that he came from favored.Owner of wordpress,twitter owners,whatapps old owners,our seun nairaland and many online platform key into internet success which make the world to patronise you. key into online business or what your country favoured, Nigeria favoured Agrobusiness,and be a success in your onn scale.You dont need to be a mack zuckberg |
