latsy:Just ask your father first. He has a passion for failure but probably won't admit it to you. |

Xzbit91:You don't know who I am, do you? FYI I am an auto technician (for modern cars) and an aspiring web and graphics designer, backend and front end developer. I was even invited to Europe by my uncle, but I told him no, I will go to Europe on my own terms. I even discussed about it on this very forum, where I asked people wheather it will be wise to go to Europe blindly. Yes That is me. I am trying to set up a firm of my own. |

GrandGarcon:You should have said so. Your claim of pushing Barrow rather than work for someone is false! |

OmniSparrow:I am not your father so don't pour your anger on me for failing to give you a good life. |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by OmniSparrow: 10:59am On Jun 04, 2017 |
latsy:So your father gave you a hood life? Wow. Explains a lot. |

OmniSparrow:You may end up a failure if you think anyone owes you anything in life. |

Gentle2015:I think you are not informed on that point. |

latsy:I'm already a success. It's yours that we are trying to salvage. Too late for your father though. |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by OmniSparrow: 12:30pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
latsy:I know these are the only options for your generation. Illiterate pig. Jobless son of a piece of shit father. Next time, learn to respond. |

Xzbit91:Look, my friend there is dignity in labor, I sold pure water in 2010, later I sold Okrika (used clothing), while selling Okirika, I learned to repair cars, by affilliating with a work shop and watching YouTube videos, I started from somewhere. I am not ashamed to say it. Mind you, I did not attend any university, not that I don't have the brain, it just wasn't my thing. |

OmniSparrow:You are not a success, if you were you won't be lamenting on how your life is so bleeped up on every thread. I noticed you are harping about father, did he abandoned you ? At your age someone is still forcing you to do what you don't have passion for, I learnt it can be frustrating to not be in charge of your own life. I wish you real freedom. |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by Haddock(m): 4:17pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
OmniSparrow:So what do YOU even have a passion for? On issues like this, speak for yourself alone! |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by Xzbit91: 4:33pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
GrandGarcon:So at the workshop you were your own oga |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by GrandGarcon: 4:51pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
Xzbit91:I wasn't WORKING FOR THEM, I Was an APPRENTICE, and came when I could. They did NOT pay me a dime. I was there because I needed to touch and feel the cars and their parts just as I saw on YouTube. |

GrandGarcon:It is not news that Nigerian apprentices are not paid. |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by GrandGarcon: 6:30pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
Xzbit91:but they cannot go to the shop when they wanted. I went when I had the time. BTW this is the last time I will give you any reply. Thanks. |

latsy:I have passion for what I do. I'm a data analyst in the power sector. But a country that makes other people go into entrepreneurship because of frustration and not passion is failed. And for the first thing to come out of your brain to be yahoo or laborer shows how you think. I'm harping on your father because I think he's an id1ot to bring another id1ot into this world. Should have aborted you. |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by OmniSparrow: 6:42pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
Haddock:I have passion for data analytics, numerical analyst, project management, renewable energy, poetry, prose, music, and electricity distribution logistics. But that wasn't what the post is about. It's about misconceptions people have going into entrepreneurship which I happen to agree due to experiences with some acquaintances. And I stated that a lot of people especially in Nigeria presently go into it not out of passion but belief of lack of choice. So I'm yet to understand what concerns this with my own passion. Please enlighten me on how it affects the opening post. Fyi, in this context it is 'passion' not 'a passion'. |

latsy:Abandon not abandoned. Standard of education has really gone to the dogs in this country. This one now will say he is a graduate. |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by latsy: 8:32pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
OmniSparrow:Only an unfortunate company will employ uncouth and visionless people as employees because they will destroy everything with their negativity. |

OmniSparrow:You'd rather say "So what do YOU even have PASSION for?" instead of "So what do YOU even have A PASSION for?"? Really? Clearly, you're wrong but because you believe you're right, I'll leave you be. |
| Re: 5 Lies You Have Been Told About Entrepreneurship by OmniSparrow: 9:01pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
Haddock:That's why I said in the context you used. You're wrong. Learn. You're welcome. |
