My father has money but he is not supportive of my dreams.
He wants me to go into law like him but i'm more of the tech person.
This has always created rift between us.

I hustled to get my first laptop by myself. Spent numerous amounts of data watching youtube tutorials about Adobe After effects Premire pro Blender
My dad sees this things as a waste of time. No matter how much i explain to him he just dont see it as serious work.

When i realized tech is expensive especially for a newbie i self taught myself on 3d animation and motion graphics.

I had to buy some softwares worth over 200 dollars yet my popsi no wan support my tech journey.

After struggling with Nepa inconsistency plus excessive data spending i reach out to my dad he said what have i achieved all these while i have been doing tech.
I try explain that if i had gotten the financial support from him i would have gone far by now.
He said he has little money
To my astonishment that same day he gave a donation to church..

Let me give you a counsel. You can still study law and pursue your Tech dreams. I am not sure how old you are, but you might still be in your early 20’s.

Guy, most people in tech share their success stories, but they don’t share the privileges and undue advantages (like connections) they’ve enjoyed.

Don’t grandstand and don’t fall out with your pops because of what he wants you to study.

TLDR: Go study Law, then follow your Tech dreams.

Welcome to the club. Our club of children who fight through difficult parentage. It's one of the reasons why some marry early and think others are not serious about marriage or about their career. Tech is a very lucrative career but your dad is ignorant of it.

My own parents were not even together since my birth. I lived with my domineering mom without a father figure. She's financially buoyant but decided not to braise me up cuz I established relationship with my dad's family which she's been bitter about. Her thought as a woman is that all her effort raising me alone will still be submitted to my dad's people. And I've been thinking how a full grown young man like me won't have to know my paternity lineage. I struggled through a lot of financially demanding situations myself from schooling to marriage. Ensuring that I don't transfer the hardship pain to my wife n children is another challenge on its own.

You can reach out to family members or friends with good will who are tech-inclined to support your dreams. Don't give up.

Do tech as a side hustle. I live with people who studied engineering as undergrad majors to satisfy their parents. They later earned technology certificates which they used to get employment.

the cost of doing tech all by myself has been choking me.
I have a dad who can support
But to him he thinks its wasre of money.
I can't just go back and start studying law. My heart body and soul is in tech.
All i need is for him to support my decision instead of neglecting it and forcing law on me.

Be smart.
Study law. While in school do what you like.

Many lawyers are comedians, entertainers, tech.

So why deprive yourself and dad peace.

Do what he wants and while doing that do what you want.

In the UNI will see that many law students have same views as you and you can partner. You have time to yourself.

You graduate then decide if your passion is worth leaving law. By then you dad don happy and you are happy.

Calm down.
No let motivational speakers lead you astray.

Follow the advice of all those who advised you to study law and also follow your dream in tech. If you need money for tech use law to obtain the money. My cousin is currently studying medicine and also learning programming at the same time. So use your head, you can actually kill 2 birds with one stone.

First off i hate law with passion.
You can't force someone to study a course that dosen't resonate with you.
If Messi father forced messi to be a doctor instead of football.

The money he will spend in school fees, accomodation for law in 5 years.
If he gives me that money for law to invest in my tech. I will be the best in tech and earn millions.

If i waste 4 years studying what i hate then later drop it for tech that will bec rrslly dumb move.

Why waste 4 years doing simething you will dump and continue your passion.
Why not invest that 4 years law money into my tech dream.

You see where im coming from
Is not that he dosent have money
He is ready to spend 2 million for me to go study law.
But can't spare 100k to assist my tech dreams.

How will law give me money for tech?? Where will i earn money as a law student to fund my tech?

I have learnt the skill
All i need is support and tools to create my own company in tech.

so he should waste money on tution fee for 4 years just for me to go there and do whatever i like.

Like i said i hate law, you cant force messi to be a doctor.
If messi spend 7 yrs in medicine
Then drop it for football.
That is 7 years wasted.

Why spend all that money in law sch for 4 years just for me to dump it.
If he use that 4 yrs law money and invest in my tech dream. I will be a made man with stable income rolling in.

i am 28 and i have no single interest in law. Talkless of studying it.

Study what i dont like and fail woefully while he keep spending money on tution fee for 4 yrs??

You hate law or you hate the fact that it is coming from your dad.

When time comes you will understand that passion does not feed you.

Law is a profession and it is earned.

You need to enter university to see what people are capable of doing.

It is all dreams bro.

If you can not sponsor yourself then why complain.

You better start liking law.

Like i said this is not US.

I met people who were law students and better actors
Mc lively from OaU

Asake met yhemolee

U need to even connect with people

lets assume asake father refuse to sponsor his music talent. Now asake don blow his father come out and beg.

Let us assume messi father force messi to be a doctor.
Where will messi be today.
Messi father supported his son football dream since messi was a kid. Now imagine if he didnt support messi.

The point of having parents is to support their child dream not to force them to do their bidding.

Who had no more to go fro trial

The path he is already following is not a broke path. Op i will advise you run the both since you have a sponsor.

This tech boy na wa for you ooo !!
If I have the privilege to go back to school I will study law, you think law is a one sided carrier ?
If I may ask how old are you?
If tech is your calling, I don't see why you can't marry the two profession together.
If at a long run you are well established in tech, Las Las you go still need a service of a lawyer to draft your terms & conditions for you when you wan establish your company.
Since you don't want law, apart from tech which other options can you go for ?

This is where you are getting it wrong, that's why I said Law is not one sided, they are many aspects of Law you can major in.

The Asaka & Messi you talked about in your previous post have some legal backings in their contact with their club or lebel company.
Did you not hear how Messi was sue for tax invasion.
Did you not read how some superstar players and musicians went bankrupt after divorcing their wife.
Bros be calming down.

If you're a struggling tech guy nor be your papa fault, if you were smart and logical you'd know you can study law and continue learning tech on the side, if you had agreed to study law your father for fit still dey reason you small money for your tech stuff, but since you want to chase dreams don't complain, you don ever sit down ask your papa why he say make you study law, once i hear a person who put the words "dreams" and "assistance" in the same sentence i know the person is not serious, na your dream nor be your papa own.
