It's actually funny how all this money you saved for 365 days will be given to a landlord in one day.

Hmmmm this one hard small. One thing with gambling is that it deals with hope while savings deals deals with reality. Let's try this experiment:
Get a saving box. If you have N1,000 put in 500 inside the box and use 500 to play your betting. Keep doing this for 1 or 2 months afterwhich you'll open the box and see how much you have. Check your bet9ja slips and see how much you spent and how much you gained. (Remember that if you invested 30k in bet9ja for two months and later won 20 or 25 or 30k you didn't make any profit rather you're the one that lost money and time.) We want to find out which of these options is capable of making you keep money and become rich.

So like I said let's try the experiment and see. You'll be the one to choose if you're to continue betting or not after this experiment.
thanks alot bro....the thing is I have more than 100 reasons to stop, but I just can't stop it on my own


tomorrow alert go enter account and betting will take over 75% of my income.

that has been the norm for over 2 years now and sadly I don't know what to do.

my case is too complicated sir and I need all the help I can get.

You must have a very strong and sacred reason to stop gambling. If not, no amount of prayer or charms can make you stop. I can counsel you cos I’ve been through that road also

I will be most greatful.....
i'm very much aware that gambler can never make it in life yet I still indulged in it.

Am beginning to think perhaps that is my destiny.

Na only advise dem sabi give. Maybe I go dey sleep inside bush dey save the rent to build house. The fact that I'm paying rent doesn't mean I'm not planning on building my house. Do I seem like someone that's dumb? I don tire for that their advise. It's just like seeing a child crawl and you become upset asking her why she's not driving a car instead because crawling wastes time.


I tire pass you. I’m quite shocked at some of the takes on Nairaland and Twitter. Don’t people pay rent? Why are they trying to make someone look stupid for getting a very affordable place? 300k is cheap anywhere and for Abj, I believe it’s a steal.

Una way wan dy pay 20k/yr rent, not everyone likes suffer like you people. Enjoy your face me I slap you apartment.

Hello guys so I moved into a new apartment late last year which cost 300k - a mini one bedroom flat in Abuja. I knew I had to become more serious about saving or else me and landlord go get problem at the end of the year grin grin....

Just like always, I do my calculations before taking any step and then I start saving. My former place cost 140k (a self contain) I needed more space so I had to move into my current place. Although it's not too big but since na only me, e dey ok.

However before moving in I calculated how much I'd have to save to meet up because I don't like the idea of having to run around like a headless chicken when my rent is due so I always start saving the very day I renew my rent anywhere. It has really helped me.

My calculation was that if I could save 1k per day I'll definitely meet up by God's grace before the year runs out. Some days I put in 10k or 5k or even 1k depending on how much cash I have at hand while the money transferred to my bank account remains untouched except for important spendings. I still have a month plus before my rent expires but I just started having this strong feeling to break the box open and I did tonight. What I got when I counted...... N343,500 grin grin grin

I spread the money for people wey wan count. Although there was no space enough to properly spread so some are ontop others in twos and threes. I couldn't capture the whole money well because space no too dey and I'm not a professional photographer grin grin

I'll be sealing the box to begin saving from today again if I get cash. It's fun but very stressful and draining. Not for people without self control. Lol

Lots of people don't know the power of consistently saving in bits for a long period of time. If you're in that category, I hope this helps.

So motivating

I can't wait to break mine by March 2nd next year , I'm on a 365 days saving goals , what am I saving for ? I know but I also don't know , might be for a skill? Might be for emergencies ? I just feel safer knowing I have some money somewhere and it's not been easy keeping my hands off it , I stay off the internet so I don't buy data and when I have airtime I sub at night to download movies so i don't get bored from not chatting or not scrolling through tiktok all-day

I have to manage how often I eat and I had to let go of my addiction for junk food ( especially chocolate and shawarma etc cry ) , I had to cut out soft drinks too , which was very hard and i just eat real food and support it with cereals and provision

I rewrite my goals so that I'm motivated to save towards them , and I keep one copy of my goals inside the box so when I open it I'll see it , it's like a promise to myself that I'll get there , it's easy to fight the urge to break it because it's so adorable, it's like an art decor , I should've gotten it in pink to really get that look , I guard it with my life but it's really scary coz some people know I have it and that there's money inside

Lemme give you a little wisdom.

Investment is better than saving.

Try and find a very good investment to put your money into because that is what smart people do rather than hoarding Naira Notes and be thinking you are doing something wise in the process.

Imagine if an Armed Robber walks into your house and carts away your saving box with all that Naira Notes inside it.

That is when you realize how much you have worked for nothing.
