Today I turn 43.
My first salary was ₦60,000 a month. I lived on half and invested for my future.
Over 20 years later, my portfolio can fund my family’s lifestyle if needed.
To the young person making financial projections and wondering, “Can this really happen?”
Let me share my journey. A thread…
The thing I like about professional exams is that whether you pass it all at once or you spend 10 years writing it, no one cares and no one knows.
This should motivate you to do it.
Don’t feel too bad if you haven’t passed, one day, it will be your turn.
You're supposed to use every unfair advantage you have. Looks, genetics, connections, dad's money, whatever.
There's nothing noble about choosing the hardest path just to feel like an underdog.
Ɗalibi: Ko da yaushe cikin aikata zunubi nake Malam!
Malami: Duk lokacin ka da aikata toh ka tuba.
Ɗalibi: Ko na tuba sai na sake!
Malam: Sai ka sake wani tuban!
Ɗalibi: Malam har yaushe zan ta aikata zunubi kuma ina tuba?
Malam: Har sai ka fusata Sheɗan ya rabu da kai.
- Sukairaj Hafiz Imam
As a man, make sure you do these three things:
1. Marry a loving, supportive, and caring wife. Someone who stands by you, encourages you, and shares in your journey.
2. Marry from a responsible family. Choose a family where your in-laws treat you like one of their own, where respect and values are clear.
3. Marry a woman who sees you as a blessing. She should recognize God’s work in you and value your presence in her life.
Above all, never settle for less. Your peace, growth, and happiness matter choose wisely.
I’m in love with this quote
“Do not carry the worries of this life because this is for Allah. And do not carry the worries of sustenance because it is from Allah. And do not carry the anxiety for the future because it is in the Hands of Allah”
-Ibn al-Qayyīm رحمه الله
