Compound interest is like a miracle or magic, it has enormous power. When you compound first fruits, second fruits, third fruits so that you get to a point where you will have more money than you can spend. Even civil servants can be surreptitiously rich in 18 years, if they just have the discipline to spend just a fraction of their income on compounded investments. emmanuelewumi: |

There is someone here that always reminds us that except you are paying school fees with forex or doing business that involves repatriation of funds back into forex, then devaluation should not be your worse headache, instead worrymore about inflation. I think he is right NL1960: 7 Likes |

The man had money but didn't plan well, asking a woman living in a developed country to follow you back to Nigeria with your children is like running faster than Usain bolt. His priority could"ve been to build life for his kids in Naija, as soon as they turn 18 years he take them to naija on holiday and get them to start family life there, the wife will just be in complete loss of control. ahiboilandgas: 1 Like |

This is easier said than done. Many parents in diaspora get to realize in old age. It is difficult enough to get your kids born in Lagos to know their home town not to talk of those who grew up in such development, it is really hard for many of them to see Nigeria as home, so when the old man decides to return, he finds that he returns alone. It is a big challenge. TotoNaRubber: 1 Like |

Before Ema comes with his expert opinion, I will share my own thoughts. Inflation does not compound as the investment would, so at the beginning, inflation may be drowning your investments but after a while, that investment will have acquired its escape velocity and rise above the inflation rate, as long as we do not head in the same direction Zimbabwe and Venezuela got to. mindtricks: 1 Like |

megamart247: What you should know is that you don't invest in NSE and go to sleep. There are quarterly results the various companies release If you see dangers in them, you sell your stocks and look for a profit companies to invest your cash. I invested in FBNH, NB, Guinness, UACN and Wapco. When their quarterly financial reports were showing poor performance, I sold them before the great crash in their current prices. I have invested back in Wapco recently, because their financials have improved from my own analysis. FBNH financials seem to be improving, but I will not buy it again until I see serious improvement in their books Nobody holds you not to sell poor performing equities, especially now the power to buy and sell is in your hands. Investors will pay school fees severely if they refuse to study the quarterly financial books of their portfolios or become too attached to a particular company. I am calmly waiting to see okomoil plc at bargain prices to enter....still regretting not buying it at N15-N20 7years ago....was busy with other equities which am happy to have invested heavily in them. Please let's be guided always. 8 Likes |

megamart247: That is one of the problems of investing in the real sector and importance of diversifying your investments, you don't invest and sleep, you monitor your Investments every quarter. Looking at the dividends , bonuses, capital appreciation earned over the years the following business have beaten inflation and currency devaluation in the last 17 years, Nestle, First bank, Access Bank, Nigeria brewery, Flour Mills, GSK, Zenith bank, GTB, Okomu Oil, Presco, UBA, Custodian and Allied,Vita foam, and many more. An investor should be able to identify a bubble, we have them in real estate, stock market and in business. A stock of N30 that earned less than N1 is a bubble, 2006 and 2007 was a year of bubbles when people threw cautions to the wind . Intelligent Investors switched to fixed income Investments during this period and switched back to equities to cherry pick when normalcy returned. Few days ago, I talked about the bubble that is building up in Tesla 6 Likes 1 Share |

The panacea for this problem, is any one staying abroad is whilst ur kids are growing up once in a while have them come see Nigeria. Let them enjoy when they come back to Nigeria. Do not start telling them Nigeria is a shit hole else them no go wan enter. To me it's an investment. ojesymsym: 6 Likes |

Exactly, they get to realize at old age, that is why the age of 18 is the point of no return, any individual of color will always feel at home in Nigeria with the basic resources in place. The Indians do these things all time on the basis of "arranged marriage" for their children when the children are ripe and it works 8 out 10. The problem in diaspora is the woman takes advantage of the man at the last minute and claims all he has ever worked for, that is why we advise our brothers living with their wives in diaspora not to own any house overthere rather to build houses in choice locations in naija and rent it out. The whole feminist thing is a thing of pride in diaspora, so men are advised to build a life for their kids outside that environment as a safe haven. The kids born in Lagos are already home, Lagos is a centre for excellence with money, in diaspora a woman can ask you to leave the house at the age of 70, in the city of NewYork so many Africans are sleeping in the streets due to these, when they tell you the good life they had prior you will be amazed, you can't really blame some of those ones cos some don't have direct Ancestrtal parents and then the loop goes on and on. Time to start preaching these things. ojesymsym: 6 Likes |

42 apartments is more than enough, obviously he let the woman take advantage of him over his children. We can't tell where he lost total control but engaging the children in what you do before they start settling is the last chance to get things right. Now he will start looking for a new wife at 60 years and changing baby diapers at 61. ahiboilandgas: |
