Let me enlighten you...first and foremost It was around 1995 and then N10 has N500 value today meaning an aboki will probably collect far less but even at that the money was not available.

Back in school I had to fend for myself. I will go to alaba international to sell Ice blocks, look for accomodation for other students and get a cut from the agency fees and I also manage an old pool board that I set up every evening around 5p.m and I had to leave school to set it up everyday.

Yet with all these I had to manage to pay for my off campus room,feed, buy hand outs and many more.

Some people are fortunate to have rich parents whilst some went through hell but contrary to your conclusion...my experience has made me a better person filled with empathy for humans.

Poverty my master my teacher.

When my sanders would break like this I will fix it, my tv, my basins, clothes.

Expand this to a wider understanding and you may see why we fail in many things. We no longer know how to fix things. Hence we no longer inventive and we no longer have connection with things. Our old tv Served us so long, when we gave it out eventually we all felt like crying. That was for an inanimate object. It was a member of the family and we knew it.

Enter wealth and his endless power of choice. If the phone breaks, trow it away and get a new one, ...if the TV blew up, trow it away and get a new one, if the shirt needs patch, trow it away. People will laugh.

Human relationships are worst in this order. If the girl or guy is bad. Trow her away and get a new one. "I can't take this from any man or woman". There are many fishes in the sea.

We need to go back to the days when we fix things.

Wealth and too much choice is killing love and connection as should be.

Babe? Which babe for do that for man

MaziOmenuko:
Boarding school, early-mid nineties. I had this panchant of not being able to play football barefooted so I always wear them slippers. As a boarder, all scrap change must be conserved for other important expense so spending it on a cobbler was a no-no.

Funny enough, I carried same attitude to high institution. Can't forget my first semester when my course mate (a babe) happened to see my slippers with safety pin underneath. She laughed at me so hard and I became a topic and illustration of poverty to her. I just avoided the bi'tch like a plague. It was just a matter of time b4 she realized her folly.

You took a very big risk by doing that. Just thank goodness that you can walk with your two legs today.

If otherwise had happened and your legs got ravished by tetanus infection, what would you have done?

Thank goodness for your life today sha.
