Someone was having a will of $12,000 dollars to his name as at 70s, while he was already a millionaire through the said man that willed him $12k and they actually had Govt policies working for them

Even, if many innovative and business oriented guys of today have $2k to their names, watch them become millionaires in 5 years even with gvt bad policies.

They are rich based on their backgrounds. Their great grandfather, the Pathfinder really did a good work.

Roon9:
Inspiring! Moral of the story; They kept the wealth in the family

And those same people have made the thread about Dangote, when it's not really just about him.

supercase1:
Dangote is just been used as a frontman by corrupt politicians from the north!!!!!!! forget all these longbullshit talks

Vortex369:
Dangote is operating on the OPM principles.

Other People's Money (OPM) is Hedge Fund vehicle that pays RoI to stakeholders as a surrogate and running the enterprise under the brand.

Dangote does not dine with politicians for nothing.

Make una dey use una brain small.

Dogalmighty17:
The matriach of this family is Feeding 5000 people a day! Talk about impact and she isn't shouting it on social media. Our kurukere churches will do something small and wouldn't allow us to hear word.

naptu2:
Lessons from the Dantata/Dangote story:

1) Do not get involved in partisan politics, but make sure you are close to the authorities (Chief MKO Abiola would have benefited from this advice).


2) Do not be overly flamboyant or ostentatious (it breeds jealousy, envy and hatred). Again, Chief Abiola would have benefited from this advice.


3) As a family unit, you gain more from cooperation than from conflict (he advised them to continue to marry within the family and to take care of the poorer members of the family). Note that Aliko Dangote worked for Abdulkadir Sanusi Dantata and got a business loan from him. Sayyu Dantata worked for Aliko Dangote and got his business idea while serving as chief executive of Dangote Transport. Witness what is happening in the Abiola and Ibru families.


4) Education is important. Make sure you know about the business you are involved in and that you have broad knowledge that would assist you in future. Alhassan had an advantage over other Kano merchants because he understood basic english and basic accounting, enough to help him in his dealings with others.

5) Volume trading: As much as possible, make sure you are the dominant player in your area of business, such that you can control events and prices within that sector.

No scientific breakthrough.

No strong ideological movement.

Just buy, withold, and sell. Anybody can do this.

We need to start celebrating people whose knowledge of science and technology through thorough research and breakthrough will help shape the lifestyle of our unborn children positively not these lucky individuals who rode on the predatory Northern Nigeria hegemony to build wealth.

I'm out!

Powersurge:
1. Dangote is VERY prudent.
2. Consistent (unfortunately, there is get rich-quick- syndrome now. Nobody appreciates the process anymore.
3. Dangote was not from a poor family
4. DANGOTE had help
5. Despite been helped, he knows what it takes to have money.
6. I respect and love him.




In other news, I have decided to add value to some people this new year. Hence I have decided to teach Excel, Python, SPSS, Tableau, PowerBi, SQL etc this year. Follow my channel, click the bell icon to receive notification. By the way, we are going to start the python series this week on that channel. That's the only way to teach many people at once.

"Abdullahi already had a reputation of some wealth from his ventures with his father and therefore inherited his father’s position as a recognised and respected madugu. Like his father, he preferred the Nupe and Gonja routes. He specialised in the exchange of Kano dyed cloth, cattle, slaves and so on for the kola of the Akan forest."

I have always sensed one of Dangote forefathers was involved in some level of slave trade business. Though he built his fortune on his own, but this is a dent on his ancestral history.
