Can A 18 Year Old Really Achieve This? by Emmadoc: 7:14pm On Aug 04, 2021
Now, I have come across some articles especially some of our celebrities, saying they bought their first car at 18.

While some claimed they earned their first million at 18.

My question is, is it really possible for an average Nigerian to achieve this at the age of 18 or 20? Someone starting from scratch.

I need honest replies.

The guy probably inherited a building from his parents or other relatives and was collecting annual rent from tenants.

It's very very rare to make a million from scratch as an 18yr old even when the economy was booming. It's not impossible though.

I once saved N150k within a year even when I was bellow 18.

Also so many people lie about it.

Yes. I had jumped into so mukti millions by 24. Between 19 and 23 is where every man should hit. But then 97% of us would lose it and then go through a recovery process
the fact that you made it at a very tender age doesn't mean it's a standard for everyone to succeed that early. 19-23 like you said is not when to make it, but obviously when to be on track towards a career. Be it academics, business, handwork, etc.
A 19 year old on average obviously just finished secondary School about a year or two before. Some will still be writing their first or second jamb, while those who were lucky enough would be in their first or second year in the uni.
An average 23 year old on the other hand is probably in his 3rd or final year in the uni, a few others might have graduated at that point, waiting for service while others out of school might still be under apprenticeship, or just gained Independence.
So my bro, I do not know where you got your generalizations from.
Congrats for making it early enough, but only a few are lucky enough to make it that early... LEGITIMATELY.

You are right bro. I'm one of those 97%. I've lost more than 4m this year and I'm just 20. Trying to make it back isn't as easy as my first breakthrough.

I got 1700% roi on dodge coin. Around feb, I invested 1k on dodge coin to test the waters of crypto. The next day I heard fg banned crypto transactions making things difficult. Spoiling my plans to invest more.

2 months later April, To my surprise the 1k ruse to 17k due to Elon musk's hype. If I had speculated more and invested about 100k it would have been 1.7 million naira. My biggest miss of the year. Sad and funny. I am 18...


Now am speculating a on diabetes company $sens waiting for fda approval.

To your question yes an 18 year old Nigerian can legitimately. If his/she is wise, smart, learned and maybe lucky...


The major difference between me and the guy below is that he invested much more and in dollars.

Averagely and legitimately is possible but it depends on your environment , peers and what your parent knows or how expose are your relatives.
Have seen families where from day one you are been taught to be independent and be a goal getter. My niece was 17 in SS 3 when she made a deals of 2.7m with cowbell because her neigbours own a big supermarket where cowbell supplies twice weekly and her dad was a major distributor with golden penny products so she just connect the dots and hit the jar running.

Cryptocurrency & Fraud Aside, with an average job and investment, 18 years old can’t make even a million unless sponsored by parents or a social media influencer.
Don’t get deceived by those liars up there, Abdulsamad Rabiu started out at 27 years despite having a rich dad, he just recently became a billionaire few years back that’s 20-30 years later with consistent work and investment, that’s true wealth. But fraud and cryptocurrency has come to make even a 10 years old with $300 dollars to millionaires.

He specified! Not having rich parents and struggling from scratch, a distributor is a successful business man from my perspective.
