Having distinction in music and failing every other subjects shows that he's more interested in music than the usual Engineering or finance courses. The poor boy should be allowed to chose his career and the father would be proud of him later on.
Davido is a clear example of such musical talent whose talents could have been wasted by banking and finance or law.
[quote author=Ningen post=88466091]No, it doesn't end there. You keep trying again and again until you are crippled by the effects of kneeling down. Then you start prostrating.
its a good development and the project is a masterpiece, i must say. But the question is; is it the right thing for us to do now? Why investing this much in structures when our economy is dying and the educational system keeps falling on daily basis. m sure that 99% of the brain work (the architectural and structural designs) of this project are never gonna be handled by Nigerians because our training and education has not gotten to that level. Rather than building capacities for sustainable economic and technological development, we keep forcing it. we'll always have issues when trying to force development, so lets try to stabilize our economy and improve the educational system, invest more in training the young ones to become the brain boxes behind our development. We need to aim at the point where we can boldly handle our infrastructural development and industrialization.
JARUSHUB: Even with the nature of our society, retiring early is possible and achievable (especially if this has always been your lifelong goal), you only need to be willing to make some sacrifices. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 4 things to do if you want early retirement.
Avoid Spending Mindlessly
The most important step in controlling your finances enough to make early retirement possible, is to track your spending. You have to know what you’re spending on and if it’s necessary for you to spend that much on it, or even spend on it at all. Know how you spend, determine necessary expenses and focus your efforts on reducing or eliminating negligible or unnecessary expenses. Stop Lifestyle Inflation
Try to avoid living at the maximum standard your income allows. Find a middle point and contently build your life around that, while you save and wisely invest the rest to further increase your earnings. If your income increases, try not to over boost your spending and put a reasonable portion of the extra money into savings. You can also apply this strategy to other surplus money like bonuses, and other small windfalls. This will benefit you far more than buying the latest gadgets and travelling to the most exotic locations all the time.
Go Home-Made
Opt for home-made food, as opposed to eating out all the time. If you’re skeptical about just how financially beneficial this strategy is, give it a shot for a month and see the results. You can even save some more money if you know how to negotiate well for groceries and food stuffs at the market. In addition to the financial benefits of going home-made, there’s also the health benefit of eating fresher and healthier meals.
Stop Trying to Please or One-Up Your Friends
This is one of the biggest money wasters and the greatest enemy to early financial independence. Keeping up with the Joneses and trying to live up to your friend’s standard can end up not only robbing you of a chance at early financial independence, but it can also mess you up financially. Avoid going out all the time, spending in places you never intended to spend in, and spending lavishly on things that you could care less about because of so-called friends. Stick with friends with the same financial mindset as yours, who will contribute positively to your goal of achieving early financial freedom. You’ll be better off for it.
Hmmm!!! RIP to the dead... but lets just learn to be more careful and do things in the right and proper way. Who knows whether the driver made the necessary checks before hitting the road.
