Hello Nairalanders, we all have that special person who has played a vital role in your life and is deemed very important. So tell us who that important person is.

right now my hubby.

My mama! She has really suffered for and she's still suffering for me.

Some will come and say God, as if God is not number 1 in everybody's life

my mum and she wil always be forever until baba god do the do

My father

My Lovely Father

My Family

My family

My daddy! That man has tried for me!
He sacrificed so many things to give me world class education. (I did my undergrad in one of the top 100 schools in the world).
Note that I am the only girl. Many of his friends and colleagues questioned why he would invest so much in his girl child, but he did not answer them.
He is a financial investment wiz and I learnt so much about saving and the art of letting my money work for me.
If there is anyone that has my interest at heart 100%, it is my father. My mama too dey worry about what other people will say.

It's nothing new, it's the same thing almost every financial book will tell.
- Save first, spend second. I use the 50:25:25 rule, use 50% for needs, 25% for saving, the other 25% for wants.
My dad had set it up so the bank take out the saved 25% and puts it in a fixed deposit account. The secret is holding the deposits for a long time, so your compound interest continues to grow. You can read about stuff like this on countless books and website. My dad also buys and holds stock for a long period.

My family,both extended,and nuclear.

Sincerely i dunno
but collectively, my family

My uncle...I call him my VIP!

Everly, my Mum. I have never see a woman like her. She is a reed that refuses to bend in any wind of adversity. She taught me to be strong and pave my way in life.

I think this will work if you have enough money already

The average person never has enough money

Top 100, wow one of my dreams. Don't you need like superhuman abilities to attend one of them?.

hope you're trying to ease her of the suffering?

My mum and dad!!! They r wonderful people... Dad can't do much now, cos he's down with cancer, but his love and concern even when he can't do much is topnotch!! My mum Chai! I can't even have words to decribe her.... I pray for them everyday of my life.

We do have enough money, we just don't know how to save and spend. That is a challenge to most people

PresVA:

Getting a job(either good or anyhow) would ease her of the suffering! It's really hard to get........so tough!

Thanks

Sadly, None for now.

Lol, you do not need superhuman abilities.
It is easier for a black female to get into a top school than it is for a white male with the same qualifications. Especially if the said female grew up in Africa and would have a different perspective on a lot of things. Many organization are interested in diversification so don't think you cannot get it. You would be surprised.

kingcomet:

You are right.
What I was trying to say is the average person always has needs and wants that surpass their income and so if you want to save something has got to give.

So what of all those minimum GPA stuff, leadership qualities and winning an olympiad? How did you get around them?
