Mine was personal share of 40million naira approximately when I shared a business idea with a good friend but failed in putting everything down into a signed agreement because I trusted him and our friendship.

He made the money as projected but never gave me a penny.

Lesson learned: Trust absolutely nobody

Not saying you shouldn't document your transactions but I assure you, even with documentation, your "friend" would still have shafted you.

Good friends pay regardless of documents.

Shame no gree me confess the amount..but just know I messed up gan! Putting my young family in an economic disadvantaged position but our faithful and loving God came through for me and I was able to recover fully in the space of one year.

No more quick dealings to get fast returns for me. I learnt the hard way.

They are so numerous to mention. is it the 70k i invested in MMM or my 55k I lost trying to play one sure 3 odds, abi the money I take buy some gadgets when I no Dy even too use like smart watch and headpiece. Las Las nobody is perfect. you must at one time in your life spend or loose money on frivolities. but the one I'm always careful is spending money on a gal not related to me. my conscience Dy beat me for that one, because anytime I wan mumu, my mind will call me to order. I remembered when I wanted to give a gal 5k for hair after winning 24k for bet, my mind now told me to call my mom and I did and I asked if she needed anything and she said no and I just asked her to send her account number for me to check something and I transferred 7k to her. I'm not wicked or stingy, just that some heartbreaking stories I read everyday online Dy vex me.
Broda years back I deliberately owe one of my female friend #10 naira from what I bought from her mum shop. This babe collected the money from my mum the third day and I shock!
When I chop ticket my normal character would have given her money but no, I shared money for my friends excluding her in her front. Nonsense ladies always feeling entitled.
Today I could say those my niggas has gave me money different times worth over 50k and that my female fwend is still doing runs
