Re: My Experience After Working For About Five Years. by Elyn22: 8:24pm On Dec 30, 2020 |
With the 3 byke, I was still looking for other sources of income, my 3 kids in School then at pre nursery were always coming up with so many home work at age 2+, they were not picking at all, the way I expected them to pick, I found out I was the one doing most of the teachers work, funny enough the school fee increased, I pleaded with Oga to withdraw them from School, since am not doing anything, I'll be taking them at home, it was another serious battle, neighbors were coming to pokenose why I had to drop my own kids because of little increase in school fee. I no kuku send them, I pleaded with Oga since the school fee was 20k each making it 60k termly, to be paying 5k each for the 3 of them to enable me buy textbooks and other materials the kids will need, he refused. I started taking them at home, after a week, 3 family joined in, Oga warned me seriously never to use his room for any form of lesson, he never knew he was helping me climbed, so the lesson was outside the house. Before the end if that term I was already counting 15 pupils. I taught of upgrading myself since am into teaching, I had to enroll in Nigeria teachers institution (NTI). It's a four years weekend program, I paid myschool fee from the money parents were paying as lesson fee. I was in this lesson for like 3years, my population did not exceed more than 25 foe this four years, I had to roof a space around my place to avoid rain and sun beating my pupils. I had to vacate my area because of low patronage, before vacating my area I don't have a dime on me when this idea came up, I had to sell to of my new bike at the rate of 80k each, went to rent 3 rooms in a place very far from mine, my people, it wasn't easy at all but God saw me through, whenever I remember what I pass through that year, I always shed uncontrollably tears even as am typing. To God be all Glory, that term of relocating I was counting 60 pupils, the 3 rooms was too small for us, after one session I add to relocate. My husband has a land a stone throw from the school, so I pleaded with him that I want to start developing his land instead of paying rent, he accepted, my people Oga is into sales of building materials, but refused to assist me, I never mind because I know the taught of all his act will pull me down. I was able to build 5 class room the next year and was counting 100 pupils, the next year, I added 3 more classes making 8, now my population is over 150. Oga started threatening me last year to leave his land, the threat was so much that I had to pack out of the house and rented an apartment somewhere, I stayed there for like 6months, he started coming for apologies, in the cause of my six months outside my family, he had serious accident like 3 times, people were coming to plead on his behalf, I had to accept because of my kids, it was really telling on them. We are settled now by the Grace Of God. Last year November I bought a land close to the School which is bigger than where I'm using presently, and just last week Thursday God blessed me with a School bus of my own. I can't thank God enough, he has done so much for me. The story is more tougher than this but for the sake of writing, I have to shorten it. Nothing good comes easy, we'll have to strive until something happens. 38 Likes 4 Shares |

This is a wonderful piece, and I can relate with it, especially with the country's rising debts and how fast it's slipping into recession, savings should be a top financial priority. Just like the saving platform on my signature that gives 10% interest monthly. |

You make some sense, but you should know not everyone has the ability to raise startup capital. Now, I always advise every young man, learn a trade, do stuffs with your hand, try many things and know what you are good at, not everyone can do business, some have really sad story. 1 Like |

[color=#006600][/color] PitexyBaba: It took me more than a year and around 200k to learn Forex on a one on one bases and another 4 months before I started making small small profits like 10-20$ a week gradually I grew. Forex requires self discipline and consistency. You must be mentally and emotionally strong to withstand Forex and it's unpredictable nature. People mostly fail in Forex because they lack patience to learn and also think it's one of those get rich quick platforms. It takes time. 4 Likes |

AltarBoy1: You have spoken well brother. Although business is not for everyone and some cannot deal with the ups and downs. But I tell people that in Nigeria every youth should strive to be a businessman or woman because most Nigerian employers are Terrible. The banking sector has been handed over to selfish hawks who have buried professionalism and careers for profits. In an environment like ours being a business person should be a must for most employees 4 Likes |
