"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."

You want people to start stealing cars?😑😑😑

Lol. This made me laugh.

In this present Nigeria, where yahoo and stealing is the order of the day, and people who are working legitimately can't have control of what they are earning...

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

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

I agree about owing a piece of Land but a car?

Chaiiii.. Sam baby, I'm serious! Will you be my girl?😉🥰

Thanks AI. We don hear 😁

Nice 👍 one

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.

I will gladly steal your car if I know where you park.

I tire for the guy, small money and he is busy opening threads about what people should or should not have by 35.

Thanks for your knowledgeable comment.

You are welcome, don't let anyone pressure you because of the small change they have, our people are like that. Here, I have Onyibos who live in a one room at 50 and are very happy. Live your life and create your own happiness.

Werey you still found a way to insert braggadocio. What a wànker.

I'm a lady and you know we ladies have a tendency of driving cars that are not ed in our names, you'll think you're stealing from me, only to find out that you stole from a full bearded man with a hairy chest like you...

Car is not even a good asset, it loses value over time. I once sold a car that was purchased for over 3 million naira for 1.3 million naira.

Car is advisable for married couples with children but not essential for single people. In times like these, car provides liability, I spend a lot on fuel and maintenance.

Good advice, except for the part about requiring assets. Not everyone can afford or maintain luxury assets, fingers are not equal.

I am a Nigerian, bragging is in our DNA

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..

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.

Eni kure

Instead of looking for how to push the government to fix the country

We should do everything we can?

You're one of the reasons young guys indulge in ritualisms and other criminal acts to make quick money. Must everyone own a car at that age?. I never fit chop, na car I wan buy?
Guys, someone should kindly assist me with 5k pls. I no fit shout. Very hungry.

Okay.

I own a dog...

Fabu, life is not a cookie cutter. Some may be lucky to have, while many are not that lucky. And that doesn't mean they are not going to have. This your mindset is what is leading many people into crime.

Trash with poverty mentality
