Business / Few Things You Need To Know If You Must Become And Stay Wealthy by SilverG33k(m): 12:06pm On Apr 03, 2018 |
Its everybody's prayer to be rich and comfortable, however, some people still find it difficult to make ends meet. There may be few things they are not doing right, or things they simple do not know. If we take a moment to observe some wealthy people around us, we'll see they always go after one particular thing, Assets. If you must be wealthy, here are few rules that must be known to you. 1. Your assets should always be greater than your liabilities. Its a simple rule, don't waste money on liabilities, gather assets. Assets is something that puts money in your pocket. A lot of people think their personal house is an asset but its not. Meanwhile, a house you rent out to tenants is an asset because it puts money in your pocket. Your iPhoneX is not an asset, that bentley is not an asset, that girl that has a lot of asset is not an asset. Your business is an asset, your investments is an asset, learn to differentiate between the two and you're good. Note: Your phone or PC is primarily a liability, it becomes an asset when you start making money through it. 2. There is power in your thinking The single most powerful asset we all have is our mind. If trained well, it can create enormous wealth. Thoughts bring ideas, it is your ideas that turn into reality, as long as hardwork is being invested. Mark Zuckerberg was an undergrad when he came up with the idea of a "hot or not" type of website called Facemash(The idea). When he learned how technology could be used to connect people, he launched a site called thefacebook..com (The hardwork). Today, the name has changed and everybody uses facebook. His idea changed everything, forget the fact that he is a programmer or comes from a rich family. You need to have the idea first. ”If you can't dream it, you can't achieve it - Balogun Silver“ 3. Always have a positive mindset Average people have one particular thing in common, its negative mindset. The rich people however possesses a positive mindset all the time. Here is an example: Lets say you have this amazing talent for cooking. People suggest that you start a business or at least write a cookbook. Instead of seeing an amazing opportunity, an average person will see only the obstacles. Like “There are already so many cooks in the world.... It’ll take forever to get a business license...... I know nothing about business.... The economy is too bad.... etc.” They then abandon the idea and go back to their dead-end job. Meanwhile, a positive person will factor in the competition, time and lack of business education, but they will not let that stop them. They will purchase books or use YouTube to educate themselves while they wait to get their business approved. No matter what, they will take the opportunities. Even if everyone around you is better than you, give yourself that positive mindset and a positive outcome will follow. 4. Don't listen to the majority “If you follow the crowd, you'll never get ahead of them. If you follow your path, you'll lead the way.” The safe path is going to school, getting a job and earning a salary every month, saving the money, avoiding big financial risks and taking loans. The risky path is going against the tide. The wealthy people’s behavior is commonly considered risky, impulsive, or even dangerous by the majority. Yet, they’re the ones with the fortune, think about it. 5. Patience is the key “The most important factor to getting rich is getting started”. A lot of people are still living from hand to mouth due to lack of patience. How? Let's say a man started a business today, after a month, he calculated his profits and they are still relatively low than he predicted. He can't wait any further so he switches to another business he thinks will bring wealth in just few months. After that few months, he is disappointed in the outcome of the business. The biggest forum in Nigeria (Nairaland) was created far back 2005, I can deductively say the owner wasn't earning a dime 12 months after its launch. But, what do we have today? Hundreds of new bloggers who wants to buy Bugatti in 6 months. Wealth is accumulated first in small sums, then in larger ones as a man learns and becomes more capable. 6. Invest in yourself “Your level of success will rarely exceed your level of personal development, because success is something you attract by the person you become. - Ryan Holiday ” You will only become rich as you know how to. Its simple, you can't be an entrepreneur if you don't have the knowledge or skills to solve human problems. Most people don’t have a clue about complicated issues like budgets, cashflow, or taxes. But if you want to build massive wealth, you need to invest in yourself through learning. If you don’t know how money works, you’ll never build wealth. Reason because money keeps flowing from one end point to another, its up to you to know where to intercept it. Without proper knowledge, self skills and financial literacy, you'll keep looking but you won't see the opportunities. 7. Diversification Little wonder Dangote is the richest man in Africa, diversification has really helped him a lot. Once his food industry gets a downtime, the building industry supports. What is even diversification? Its more like putting your eggs in different basket. This way, you spread your risks across different assets. In simple terms, Diversification is to spread out your money into different kinds of investment. Keep in mind that diversifying your investment is not a get-rich-quick approach for building wealth. Its goal is to soften the blow when the market drops. 8. Re-investing I'll define re-investing as the act of building wealth. As long as the returns are being re-invested, the investment gets bigger and bigger. For example, if I invest #20,000 into a business, with an annual interest rate of 5%, after 12 months I'd get #1000 as my interest. But instead of buying Gucci for bae, I'll reinvest it on that same business. Now,I'll earn 5% on #21,000 after another 12months, I'll receive #1,050 as my annual interest. If I decide to add the #1,050 to the #21,000 to become #22,050 I'll get another 5% annual return which again I'll re-invest.... Its an endless flow.

Business / Re: Meet John Collison, Harvard Dropout And World's Youngest Self-Made Billionaire by SilverG33k(m): 12:37pm On Jan 10, 2018 |
Before you dropout like this guy, let me analyze something 1. You're probably droping out of a college or polytechnic - no offense to college and polytechnic students, he dropped out of Harvard!! 2. He has a dream before droping out, he didn't just drop out because he is tired of school or because his cgpa got injured 3. Starting a business over there is easier than our country, except you want to turn to a regular boring blogger 4. He is creative, creative thinkers, big picture thinkers, possibility thinkers are what makes up a successful entrepreneur 5. Another vital thing that can make you drop out is your talent 6. Big businesses require big capital, although you can start small but money will give your business a boost, going to a school like harvard means his parents are averagely rich 9 Likes 1 Share |

Finstar: As much as we ain't helping ourselves, the government ain't helping us at all.... If you know how hard it is to start any meaningful business, any business at all, it takes a lot I tell you brother . . Maybe that's why I see people going the easy part which is going to school, getting a job and earning salaries.... On the other hand, the hard part, going to school and starting a business, the latter is so freaking hard for a low class citizen I tell you, it takes guts to start a business in Nigeria 1 Like |

Khallyella: I noticed you have not been active for like 3 weeks now until today I know the feeling, one time I had a girlfriend, she was pretty just like you so I had the fear shez gonna leave me because I loved her so much and feared heartbreaks like shii. Why I was depressed was because I had no money at that time, she asked for just a seasonal film and I could not even buy 1 for her, so freaking broke to the core She left my broke ass few months later and i got matured few years My sister, depression is something that doesn't stop easily, the only aid to depression is to talk to someone about it, maybe a stranger like me, it will help... Yours might not be relationship issue, it might be family issue, health issue, academic issue e.t.c let me know if you can share it with me by replying me |

TobiTobiTobiWhy:A big project can be anything, just think of something and start, my first android app was a game, not with too much graphics oh, just a small logical game, it took me 6months to get it 80% done, that was how I learn what java is all about, you too can just think of a game you can do with c++, on any platform and you'll see how fast you will learn |
Programming / Re: C++ Thread For Beginners by SilverG33k(m): 8:51pm On Oct 17, 2017 |
TobiTobiTobiWhy: I'm still at the beginners level in java, but I know what my codes can do.... . . At first, last year december to be precise, I saw one java syntax and it scared the shit outta me, I started android dev january this year, right now, you'd be amazed with what I have done, not bragging tho . . So don't be scared, java is fun especially if you have an awesome IDE . . Back to c++, what project do you think needs c++? Just pick up a big(not too big) c++ project and start executing, the more you get the work done, the more you learn c++, that was how I learn java |
Programming / Re: C++ Thread For Beginners by SilverG33k(m): 6:26pm On Oct 17, 2017 |
Gosh I love c++, I did it last year when I was in 200l, syntax so beautiful #include <iostream> Using namespace std; int main() { return 0; } Gosh, but no time to code c++ again, java already got my soul |
