Hey everyone,

check this guy out:

"I’m Emeka, and man, I thought I had it all figured out. Been working at that bank in Lagos for years, feeling like I was drowning in paperwork and stress. Then one day, I’m stuck in traffic, and I see these guys washing cars by the roadside, laughing and joking like they don't have a care in the world.

It hit me, you know? Maybe that’s what I need – a simpler life, away from the corporate rat race. So, I made the gutsy move to quit my job and start my own car wash business. I poured all my savings into it, thinking it would be my ticket to freedom and happiness.

But man, reality hit hard. Turns out, running a business isn’t as easy as it looks. I struggled to attract customers, and those that did come weren’t enough to keep the lights on. Bills started piling up, and I found myself in a deeper financial hole than when I started.

It was a tough pill to swallow, admitting that I’d failed. I had to swallow my pride and go back to the corporate world, tail between my legs. But hey, at least now I know that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. Sometimes, you gotta stick with what you know, even if it’s not perfect."

The title is wrong. It should be car wash owner not car washer. Dude should’ve paid for business school before attempting such. We were taught that many businesses break even after ten years. One with potential gives signs somewhere around the first year.

What is pain ??

Every body goes through pain too …

If a banker tells you his/her pains you will prefer to go do business…

Believe this fake story at your own peril
