I used to believe this was romance until I saw its futility. True love loves for the now. For the laughter, the intimacy: for what can be felt today, not for future returns. That's just investment. Calculation. Yet love is not a hedge fund. There will never be guaranteed returns.

One thing I’ve learnt is the culture around risk taking is a facade , when you run out of cash there’d be not much “risks” to take any longer & you’re forced to live w your poverty.

DID YOU KNOW??

​In Nigeria, the modern diet has shifted toward "heavy" processed carbohydrates and hidden sugars, leading to a massive spike in Type 2 diabetes and hypertension. Many staple food people consider "heavy" or "filling" are actually nutritionally empty, causing what nutritionists call "hidden hunger."

​1. The "White" Culprits (Bread & Pasta)
Most bread in Nigeria is "Agege" style or white loaves, which are packed with potassium bromate (though banned, it still lingers, we know the country we live in!) and massive amounts of sugar to keep them soft. Similarly, pasta is refined wheat that spikes blood sugar almost instantly. Avoid them!

​The Alternative? Boiled Unripe Plantain or Sweet Potatoes. Unripe plantain is a "resistant starch," meaning it digests slowly and won't give you that mid-day energy crash and potatoes are pretty healthy.

​2. The "Semo" Trap
​Semolina (Semo) is often marketed as a "light" alternative to Pounded Yam, but it is actually highly refined wheat flour. It has a high Glycemic Index (GI), meaning it turns into sugar in your bloodstream very quickly, diabetes is that you??

​The Alternative? Acha (Fonio) or Oat Swallow. Fonio is an ancient African supergrain that is gluten-free and packed with amino acids. Oat swallow provides the fiber necessary for heart health. At the very least consider yellow garri 😅.

​3. Alcohol & Soda (The Liquid Sugars)
​In the Nigerian heat, chilled sodas and beer are staples. A single bottle of soda can contain up to 12 cubes of sugar. Over time, this causes fatty liver disease, avoid them!

​The Alternative? Zobo (Hibiscus tea) or Kunu Aya (Tigernut milk). NOTE: Ensure the Zobo is made without added white sugar, use dates or pineapple skins for natural sweetness. Zobo is scientifically proven to help lower blood pressure, a very underrated drink or DRINK WATER! Nothing really beats water my people. 🤷🏾‍♂️😅

​4. Shawarma & Pizza (The Calorie Bombs)
​Nigerian-style Shawarma is often drenched in "creamy" mayo and sweetened ketchup, wrapped in refined flour. A single wrap can exceed 800 calories, nearly half your daily needs. It's killing you oooo!

​The alternative? Grilled Fish with Ugba or Garnished Beans. If you crave that "wrap" feeling, try a homemade wrap using lettuce leaves or local cabbage as the shell. At the very least make things like shawarma and pizza a very rare addition to your diet.

Finally, one of the most important facts for 2026 is the danger of REUSED VEGETABLE OIL. Many street food vendors in Nigeria reuse oil for days, which creates polar compounds that are highly inflammatory. When choosing alternatives like Suya or Grilled Fish, always ensure the accompanying sides aren't deep-fried in old oil.... This is mostly impossible, so what does that mean? Try to cook this stuff at home and eat them outside sparingly!

Those food look enticing, but they bring you closer to death far more than you can imagine. And also remember avoid PROCESSED FOOD! Sausages, bacon, minced meat, sausages burger meat, sausages..... These stuff have links to carcinogens. I've warned you sha.

Hopefully you've learnt something new today?

Daalu 👍🏾 🙂

One of my favourite short form stories is the one told by Leo Tostoy.

It's called "How much land does a man need."
It tells the story of a peasant named Pahom, who believes that if he only had enough land, he wouldn’t fear anything—not even the devil.

Here's how it goes:

Pahom lives a simple life but envies landowners. When he finally gets the chance to buy some land, he feels satisfied… briefly.

Soon, he wants more. And when he gets more, he still isn’t content. The more land he acquires, the more greedy and restless he becomes.

One day, he hears of a distant group of people- the Bashkirs— who are willing to sell land at a very cheap rate.

This is where it gets interesting:

Their deal is simple:
For a fixed price, you can have as much land as you can walk around in a single day.
But there’s a catch — you must return to your starting point before sunset, or you lose everything.

Excited, Pahom sets out early in the morning. As he walks, he keeps pushing further, thinking, “Just a little more land… just a bit more.”

He ignores the heat, exhaustion, and time.

By afternoon, he realizes he’s gone too far and must rush back before sunset. Panicked, he starts running. His body is failing, his breath is heavy, but greed drives him forward.
Just as the sun is setting, he reaches the starting point and collapses.

Dead.

In the end, his servant buries him in a grave.
Six feet long.

The lesson:
All the land he chased…
All he truly needed…
was enough to be buried in.

I hope that answers the question of how much money is really enough money
