Exactly what this guy said. Obrigado. It's over-simplified and obviously not that straight forward but yeah, same principle.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mRbDEtDoyA

I like when others validate my stance with external sources. I just watched the video, and yes, the guy just extended what I am saying. Being wealthy has its rules, and if you play to it, you will end up there.

It's basically a thing of ¨cause and effect¨. If I have hot water and garri, then it is not magic that I will get eba. If you have a product or services the world needs, if you can meet the increasing demands of such services, it's not magic, you will be forking wealthy.

Just as MC Oluomo keeps supplying agberos to all his junctions to collect money daily from commercial drivers, his wealth will keep going up. He is always meeting the demands of the market. There is no morality here. It's pure input and output.

A simple assignment anyone can do right now is to think of all the wealthy people you know and try to determine if they are wealthy because they have few customers. You will see that they have a huge customer base.

Like musicians, the richest are those with more views on youtube, more album sales, and more global tours, while the poorest musician are the local ones that have only their girlfriends as their followers on Instagram.

So to make money, pursue the crowd. Cover more people and give your service to them. I when dominos first came to Nigeria, now they have closer to two hundred branches. So yea.

Life is so spiritual and until you sort out the spiritual part, you can hardly make it in life

That's misinformation.
Spirituality has no business with wealth

I am a barber and a talented musician

Now, lets tell ourselves the truth, how do you wish to become wealthy as a barber??

How many barbers are rich in your vicinity/locality?

I have a young cousin who moulds blocks for people(not running a block industry), works hard but still struggles to feed his family.

Most times, our choices make or mar us.

Working hard on the wrong stuff or in the wrong direction is equivalent to not working at all.

Self-consolation.

I know few honest, naira billionaires in Nigeria, and they are they most hard working, honest men you'll ever know.

They are so lowkey, dressed in rags (I know them at Ladipo market), but bro, it is when you enter their house you'll marvel.

There are lots of honest business people, and their wealth last long since it's legal. If you went to be a billionaire in ten years time, I can tell you what to do. The question is, will you do it?
there is absolutely nothing more dangerous than the will of a desperate man.the things his willing to do in the name of God will provide.

At this point of my life I'm willing to execute high risk high reward strategies so far it's in the confines of what I can do.

At over 40yrs on earth already shocked

Brainwashed people like you usually spend their entire lives on earth chasing rubbish spiritual wealths and blessings until they eventully die poor.

The principles of wealth creation has nothing to do with God or spirituality.

The earlier you realise it, the better for you.

You may be over 40 but I put it to you that you think like a baby. Lest I forget, I don't know you in person but through your words, am pretty convinced you're still a struggling guy on the street telling someone who has invested over 13m naira in the last few years that he will die poor. My knowledge about life in general supercedes that of yours by miles.

If only you know what I have done in my life, you would retrieve those stupid words of your and tender apology. Stop displaying stupid online because you know nothing about spirituality

All these are just Stories without substance. More like you are just scratching the surface lol. Any average intelligent person knows all these things you outlined. But the REALITY on the FIELD is always different.

Only if you knew the amount of humans lives MC and his dad balablu have wasted and rendered unfortunate in life to get to where they are today. And yet they are still engaging in this brutal and merciless acts till tomorrow. I don't even want to talk of how heavily they are Spiritually Inclined. That's a rabbit hole to dive In. Tell me how many people that has the mind to go such route. Even some people have the Mind but they don't have the Connections, s, etc.

Wealth can never be created in Nigeria by just being "Prudent, smart, consistent, and hardworking alone." You must have this brutality and cunning ways of life which you would mask. Don't let anyone deceive you.

Aren't you aware the Inventors of Viruses are also the people who Sells the Cure for the Viruses. I know sure Hundreds of Ways to get wealthy, But putting them to work in Reality is where the challenges lies.

I once discovered something shocking in this our world which made me Cringed.

The thing is "Our world is a means of "Good & Evil" Nature doesn't know what good or evil is. We Humans are the ones interpreting it that way due to the way we were programmed.

But mind you karma is real, Whatever energy you send out will surely comes back to you. So everything is up to you.

And If you notice, You will realize most of the wealthy/rich people in the world are Brave and Fearless people. They like to take Huge and High risks with very high Rewards. They don't usually care about Repercussion or Whatsoever because they know better.

So tell me, How many Poor people have you seen taking Huge and High Risks??

Guy, I suppose that you should know that MC Oluomo was just a satirical example. Of course, agberoism is not a business, or to be applauded, I am just using the most basic, layman, localized example to drive a point home.

Also, the formula for wealth I described is a general one and must be tweaked to fit your geographical realities. For example, businesses in the US have a huge influence on the government and even sponsor politicians, but the same business with branches in China won't try it.

Furthermore, a true businessman transcends doubts or finds reasons why things will not work. You can be wealthy without being known, lots of software designers, forex traders, sellers on jumia amazon etc are wealthy.

wealth is like maths. It has its own formula. Apply it to anything you do, be patient and consistent, and you'll be very okay.

In any business you do, make sure it's scalable, and not tied to your time. So don't be a barber, or a Uber driver. It's a dead end JoJob that can't scale.

Look at all the wealthy people, they are wealthy because they cover a huge population area. It's why Uber as a company is rich, but not a bus driver even if they are both transport companies. Uber is global, a bus driver is not.

So don't be a salary earner, And no dead end job/handwork (eg barber, painter etc).

Have a service or product that can scale. Then see how to sell it to more and more crowd. Doesn't matter what you sell. Cigar companies sell poison but are billion dollar companies.

So if you sell groundnut, or a software developer that can generate millions of s, then you'll be forking wealthy.

Where the work is, is in your consistency, managerial skill, and applying principles of business such as economy of scale, increasing your market share, strengthening your dominance, etc.

Of course this is an oversimplification of an extremely intense and complex business process and wealth creation. Hence few people are entrepreneurs. But it's rewarding, and if you want to lift all your families from poverty, it's the way to go.

It's a principle of "cause and effect". A tout chief that collects money from all commercial drivers in Lagos will be a billionaire in a month, compare to a pastor that has a small church where the combined are not up to 2k usd in combined capita.

So if you can for example open a restaurant, then start having a new branch every three months for ten years straight, you'll be freaking wealthy. Chicken republic, dominos, kfc are all under this principles.

I repeat, being wealthy is not hard, it's if you understand the rules, and play to it. Dangote is a billionaire with this principles. He started small, now has lots of products from cement, to flour and sugar and all of Africa.

So much sense in this
