It's d story of my life...wouldn't take such pain to write it here if it wasn't real cuz I don't av such precious time to waste and secondly, am not good at writing stuff.
It happened to me.

Good of you to share

Worst broke moments... Some Nigerians have never not been broke in all their lives in this country!!! Sigh...

Hello fam,

At one point or the other, we have been broke. Do share what it was like and how you overcame it. Share the challenge too.


Mine: To cut it short, mine was a day I'll never forget. A bank rubbbished me by blocking my account and giving me procedures plus I was in a new location.


That very day made me realize that food is the only necessity in life. Hungered for three whole days! Was literally shaking like a drunken master. All my legs felt numb. I began remembering the good old days I ate good food.



I nearly licked toothpaste.


I broke a vow to never beg that day.


#Hungerbad.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I swear, if you had died a saint, you still would've gone straight to hell for being so foolish.

When will proud people ever learn that we're not here for ourselves but for one another?
People who hardly ask, hardly give.

Every man for himself Every man for another, God for us all!

Menh I can't forget that fateful day I had only 50 naira in my entire life and was going to Festac town from Ijesha for an appointment.
I used 30 naira for t/fare hoping I'll be back with good news but the result is a story for another day.
I trekked in the hot sun of Lagos from Festac town down to Ijesha with my mind already spending the last 20 naira on garri,groundnut and probably sugar when I get home after the long trekking but something strange happened.
When I got to Ijesha bus stop,getting ready for the final trekking to my street which is like five kilometers from the bus stop, I saw this blind man with his daughter begging, and when I looked at d man, he looked straight to my eye and was begging for something from me.
Initially when I saw that blind man, I felt very grateful that I was a lucky guy,I felt pity and decided to move on with my 20 naira, I would av given him something but it was the last one on me.
Do you know that I ve to trek back from my street after successfully getting to my house to the bus stop just to give that same 20 naira to that blind man? Because my conscience would not let me rest from that moment I set my eye on the blind man...it was telling me, "you can do better by giving that 20naira to the blind man", I thought it was a joke until I submitted.
After that I saw myself crying unconsciously, trekking back home weak,hungry and without hope, but that's not the end of my story.

The following, someone I d never believed will help me, came to my house and took me to his place of work.... Same day, I was interviewed, same day I got my appointment letter,next day...
I started working in that company and the rest is history.

Allah akbar.
God is Great

There are numerous people who need help. Those are the two who spoke up.

What I did was nothing. Yes, I may be in need but he was more needy. I had to. I could manage till Monday but maybe he couldnt.

Anybody with a good conscience will do the same.



You can help me too -- by offering me a freelance writing job. I like to work for money so I can value it.

If you have a writing job,
my WhatsApp details are below my signature.

Thanks sir.

Can you write non fiction ebooks??

You can never understand what it really means to be broke until you have seen millions before experiencing hardship.

From a millionaire at 26 to nothing after I had a terrible autocrash that left me incapacitated for months and It happened shortly after I had invested so much in getting a new office apartment and bought some computers for a cyber cafe business in those days when it was still the real deal.

I spent more than a year recuperating and I became so broke that I was drinking water from morning till night yet nobody knew cos I was always full of smiles. A case of seriously suffering and smiling and I became so lean. The worst part was that I'm the type who hardly disturbs anyone with my problems.

I sold all I had just to feed and the office I rented became a waste cos I was not in good shape to go anywhere.

It got to a point that I called a food hawker in my area and secretly begged her to start selling food for me just once a day that any day I have money...i was not even sure when I will have but surprisingly she said she will be giving me free... It was as if I won a jackpot.

GOD BLESS HER WHERE EVER SHE MAY BE and too Bad I can't even identify her anymore.

No matter what you are going through today please be positive cos weeping may last for a time but you will surely overcome.

Hmmmmm! What a nostalgic feeling.

CoderX:


You're just a stupid tribalist... Why don't u just say flatmate, instead of mentioning Yoruba all the time? Who asked you for someone's tribe? After saying trash, your people will complain of being marginalised, not knowing it's your tribalist orientation that's limiting you in life.

You're a disgusting human being...

The simpleton tainted his fine story with tribalism. It is the reason he got very few likes. I am sure most readers were turned off just like you. I stopped reading when he kept mentioning Yoruba up and down.

I've done similar things.
It was nice of you

how many can one remember.? there was this Xmas day nothing to eat, gbam my pastor's wife sent us delicious rice Infact it's like over 7years naw but we never forget.. anytime I remember or I see her in my heart I want to bless her big time.. God bless you mommy!

My fellow guys, my experience is not a past it is a present situation. Right now that I'm talking to you I don't have a penny to get food to eat.
You should know what it means to see yourself in that mess.
I would be glad if a friend could assist me with a token.
