Raise Business Owners Not Staff Members



A good man leaves an inheritance to his children not a job.

As a parent, the best legacy you can leave for your children is not a one room apartment, an okada ride to and from school, or a cheap ass Christmas vacation in the village.

The best legacy is a successful investment or business.

Having a job and encouraging your kids to go to school, come first in class and get admitted to the best federal school so they can work in a bank or an oil company, is just wrong!!!

The worst lesson you can teach your kids is teaching them to go to school and get a good job.

There are no jobs anymore!!!

Wake up!!!

You don't pass a job to someone.

You pass a business!

You can't pass a job so why pass the idea of it?

Salary is the bribe given to you to remain poor and broke.

The allure of earning 12 times only in a full year is an illusion of poverty masked as prosperity and luck.

No matter how big it is, if it comes only once a month and 12 times a year, it is bondage.

The bible said it, ''A good man leaves an inheritance for his children.'' Man here includes men and women.

Therefore...

If you don't have an inheritance for your kids you are a bad man. (parent)

Train your kids to solve problems not compound it.

Raise your kids not to come out from the classroom, straight to the boardroom.

Except you own the company!

Raise them to come out from school and create jobs not beg for it.

Don't sell yourself cheap to your children.

The only time you should raise them to work solely in an office, is if you own the company.

If you don't own the company don't encourage them to staff there for life.

Don't build your dreams on the backs of your children.

Let them continue from the dream you actualized.

Raise business owners not staff members.

I am not afraid of the storm Facing it alone isn't something I would lose sleep over But I want to conquer with you Set anarchy to never after Bring liberty to forever more Alone we are survivors, caging the fiercest waves Swimming the deepest seas But, hand in hand we would drown the ocean You and I, we would drink the rivers dry And spit out islands Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne Authorpreneur

Solomon's Lair!

Rated 18 Solomon's lair  I almost refused to go for the birthday party this year. Solomon always hosted a party every year, and as usual, I always gave the opening speech and acted as the MC too. I hated the drama and fake smiles all around. Each year, new faces present, old faces absent. New Friends present, Old friends lost, only me stagnant. I was always present as the best friend, the loyal soldier, meanwhile I was notoriously known for not celebrating my own birthday. It was so bad that most of my friends didn't even know my date of birth, just my age. Yes, it was that bad! It was an exhausting exercise for me. The cake and speeches, by God I hated the hypocrisy. So this year I swore to him by the old gods and new, that I wasn't gonna be in the spotlight of his special day. I just wanted to drink and chill quietly in solitude. Surprisingly, without any fuss, he obliged me. ''Obi is now a man o'' I smiled. ...

Riotous Love

I have always found Tony, my boyfriend, fascinating His write-ups and rants about bad governance and patriarchy got me wet and awestruck every single time I visited his timeline  Whenever he wrote a piece on Facebook and Twitter, he got thousands of likes and comments I always read every comment, especially from women who were mesmerized by his writing prowess I was once part of such women until I decided to shoot my shot, and, like cupid, I hit him straight in the heart A simple "Hello, I've read and enjoyed all your stories, maybe you could write ours someday, hope I'm not overreaching?" I had to drink almost a full bottle of bailey's to find courage for that stunt, and today, we are celebrating 8 months of the best love story ever. He was my Mr. Perfect, everything I could ever ask for and more It wasn't surprising when he asked me to join him and go for the peaceful protest here in Lagos, and like a love-struck puppy, quickly I jumped up and said yes That ...
