MONEY RITUAL HACK 101

-

I saw this picture and the first thing that came to mind was "really". Naturally, garri is referred to as a "poor" man food but can same be said of this commodity in this present day. Definitely no!

The reactions from people got me laughing. Eighty percent of the people who commented on the post did not say Amen to it. Some even went as far as saying "let me deal with my portion while you face yours". Quite funny, right?

The answer is not far fetched. Garri simply paired with an alternative that increased its value. Yeah, it took time but it eventually got there.

To me, I would say garri has increased in value and currently, its market value is far greater than what it used to be. Thus, a bowl of garri in the market today is #1,200 or thereabouts as opposed to the initial price of #400.  These days, garri can no longer be described as a poor man's food as even the poor can barely afford it.

One notable mistake we make in this generation is that we want to make fast money hence, we neglect value and go for the bag. Money is good, no doubt but what's the essence of a foundation built on money without value. It may look pleasing and yielding at first, however, it may not stand the test of time.

Choose VALUE over MONEY and subsequently watch money come in abundance afterwards.

N.B This kain garri combination go make sense for hot afternoon. Abeg, nobody should join me o. Lemme drink my thing in peace.

Have a wonderful weekend!

    swears Garri is no longer poor man food and we can as well say it is. It depend on what it is combined with.
    I actually noticed that the kind of people you move with also defines you. Since when garri stopped moving with groundnut all alone but with likes of chicken and all. It has gotten more recommendations.

    Garri served it's purpose to every belly just like every other food at first it was tagged a "staple" food but as time went value became the order of the day unapologetically it increased because people now saw the true value of the commodity.
    Some two years ago I stumbled on D'banj garri also reffered to as Koko garri a small packet then sold for 10k.
    What was he thinking to venture into garri business?
    In my mind I knew it was just going to be a matter of time before it radiates on the average man.
    Value over money people... because value brings money.
    "Word of the day"
    If money can buy everything you want then you are cheap!

DETERMINE YOUR CIRCLE

  I was going through my telephone address book dated 2008/2014 yesterday and discovered that I was no longer in contact with 90% of the people I had recorded therein. It is not like they became a bad person all of a sudden but there is every plausibility that we outgrew each other's relevancy. Now this is the real deal. Life is in stages and so is growth and development. Consciously or unconsciously, there are numbers of behaviour cum people you leave as you grow. You are not doing this because you feel you can just use and dump them but solely because you need people who shares the same ideology, dreams and visions with you. The people you surround yourself with goes a long way in determining the rate at which you achieve your purpose. However, I smile when I hear people say they keep small circle because they don't want drama. Of a truth, no one loves drama. Having a small or large circle is not the bone of contention but the value they add to your life.  This is th

FASHION GONE WRONG

Fashion rule says do not over dress or under dress; in all things keep it classy, simple and elegant with the right accessories that blend with the occasion. But we have, at some point, gone against this rule. Today I will be sharing my own fashion gone wrong series. Sit, relax and enjoy. My first fashion gone wrong experience could be traced back to when I was in SSS 3. We all could attest it to it that there is this aura affiliated to being in that class which ranges from being the senior of all classes to the independence that is soon to come. Being a boarder, we had little or no time to showcase our sweet body and fashion sense as we were clad in oversized check uniforms throughout the school term time. So our only escape route was during jamb. Oh yes! Everyone wanted to look peng to the exam hall. Prior to the exam day, we had selected our clothes and shoes, carefully pressed them and hanged them waiting for the D-day. On the eve of the exam day, everyone kept talking of
