Nigeria’s economy is so cooked that I used an appliance DAILY for 4 years, decided to sell and the declutter page told me to price it at 60% MORE than what I originally bought it for brand new 😭
That’s inflation and currency collapse fighting each other in broad daylight.
🗣️ Roberto Baggio on his knee surgery:
“When I woke up from the anesthesia, I was screaming in pain. I couldn’t take painkillers; I’ve always been allergic to them. I told my mother, ‘If you love me, kill me.’ I couldn’t run anymore, couldn’t train like before.”
“For months, I didn’t cash my salary cheques from Fiorentina.
Why?
Because I was ashamed. I couldn’t accept the idea of earning money without being able to work, without being able to give something in return. So I put the checks in a drawer. I’d think of my father, his face, his voice when he said that unearned money brings bad luck.
For me, work has always been tied to dignity. Even though I was injured, even though it wasn’t my fault, I still felt that weight.”
