"A man without assets is a man without leverage.

Before 35, you need to stop living like time is on your side. It isn’t. Every year wasted is a year you don’t get back. Owning a car and land isn’t about luxury....it’s about control. Control over your mobility, your options, and your future.

Here’s the game plan:

1. Master a High-Income Skill – Forget chasing quick cash. Learn a skill that will pay you consistently, whether it’s sales, coding, trading, or business. Money follows skill.

2. Control Your Expenses – Stop flexing for people who don’t care. Cut out useless spending, overpriced trends, and social validation that does nothing for your future. Every unnecessary dollar spent is a dollar stolen from your dreams.

3. Build Credit & Save Ruthlessly – Use credit wisely, not recklessly. Stack your savings like your life depends on it, because it does. A land deposit today is wealth tomorrow.

4. Make Money Work for You – Invest. Whether it’s real estate, stocks, crypto, or a side hustle, put your money in places where it grows while you sleep.

5. Move in Silence, Win in Private – Announce nothing, just execute. Let them see your success, not your struggle.

Why? Because past 35, life doesn’t get easier....it gets realer. Your value as a man is tied to what you build, not what you fantasize about. A man with assets moves differently. He doesn’t beg, he negotiates. He doesn’t wait for opportunities, he creates them.

Start now. The future is coming whether you're ready or not."

Rubbish...you can own them today n lose everything tomorrow

Thanks AI. We don hear 😁

Don't mind that one

Nnamdipapa:
Do not listen to op, live your life at your own pace and never compare yourself to others. Rather you should compare your present self to your past to ensure you are making consistent progress. I bought my first car at 22 and also bought for my dad the same day. I bought a 33,000ltr petroleum tanker for Ago business before 30 but still I do not diminish or look down on the struggles of individuals who do not have same opportunities I had in Nigeria. I was merely lucky to work good multinationals from my early 20ies.

Live your life at your own pace, try to be better every day in some form and take care of your health. Do not feel bad if you do not have a car or house at 35, you understand your own struggles the best. Life is a rat race and none of us is coming out of this race alive.

Us wey don 35 nko?

Our parents bought land at 1500, 2500, 10,000 naira etc..


Our own time land for good place na like 25M least price...

How much work we dey do?

Dzzzz:
You took your time to write the most dumbest thing the Internet has ever seen…For your mind you get sense but deep down you’re a compound fool.I had 4cars and I sold 2 cause they all liability..

Sorry, it is wrong to say "Most dumbest"

Oh now it’s 35?!

You are ridiculous people with low quality thinking.

Abee79:

So terrible, see contractions every where. Humans don't write that way

Owning a car will not make you buy cement let alone build a house

Na car oo. Its a necessity but a liability . Except na taxi or uber (and it becomes both and asset inclusive)

Nice points though

A good advice

You guys should create your own time table and allow others to create theirs.

U have earned my respect today
I tire ooo
How can this be the agenda of everyone clocking 35?
Isn't this a Malady?
My DaD never had car until we all almost graduated from the University but he's made today in his personal wealth and not to talk of that of his kids.
Guys have gone mad ooo
This is how they push Youths into marriage

Gbadugbakun:
For this Tinubu regime?

Oridinary corolla those days people used to call poor man car has now become luxury under Tinubu.

See guy, no Nigerian youth doing a 9-5 job without any extra business can afford to buy and maintain a car in this Tinubu's economy. It's almost impossible. Because even if you're earning 1m per month, you would pay house rent, feeding, other expenses, if you manage and buy can you might not be able to maintain it. That's the reality.

Are cars really that expensive in Nigeria these days? If inflation and custom charges contributed to their increment, what about people charging higher for their services and increased salaries/wages?

Including drugs and fraud and rituals?

Stop putting useless pressure on people
Its useless talks like this that make crime rates so high.

Built my first house at age 30, Car at 31, second house at 32.

Find peace, dont overdo anything, in all u do, find peace, dont be desperate for anything, you will still leave them behind

......... Including stealing abi

Unfortunately salaries and wages remain the same. Customs duty is over 70% of the cost of the car. Then the dealer would add his own commission making out of reach for the common man.

Its no longer 40? Ok

So you are now God that gives timeline and age to when someone should or can achieve something in life.
God's time is the best for each person.

good message but hammering on 35 is somehow. People get their breakthrough at 21, 18, 35, 30, 50, 40, 26, 60, 70. The most important thing is for people to stay consistent building their competence in whatever it is they are doing. Most time it will pay off, and it may not be before 35

Are we in the same country with the OP?

By God grace, I'll be owning an acre of land soon after I finish payment and I'm exactly 35yrs

Once I achieve this, I'll need to get a car for logistics or transport purposes only. I can't have a car and not be making money from it

Samantha125:
He might as well start giving us carjacking lessons if he wants us all to be owning cars by 35...😑😑😑
