2017 was definitely a challenging year for many.

Firstly, the final battle of Ponzi schemes for the soul of Nigerians saw many loose their hard earned money and savings to these con men. Secondly, the harsh economic terrain left many with little or nothing. I for one switched between a whole three jobs the whole of last year, mostly bothering about pay cuts, hostile work environment and owing of salaries.

Surprisingly, at the end of 2017, I would definitely have saved up to 1m (600k in the banks, and 400k borrowed out), which is not perfect but at least quite commendable. This was done by being automatic with my saving, I save immediately I was payed and survived and helped others based on the remaining, and if I had no money left, whatever need had to wait till the next month. I intending dubbling that feat in 2018.

So, how much did u save in 2017?, what were ur strategies, and how much do you intend to save in 2018.

Ponzi Hater
