Often times when we assess our wealth, we typically focus on our financial capital i.e the assets we already own like houses, cars, investments, and bank balances wtc
However, for most people, especially those early in their careers, human capital is the dominant asset
Human Capital is the present value of your future earning capacity I.e discounted cash flow of expected lifetime wages, adjusted for growth and survival probabilities.
For the majority of early career professionals, human capital far exceeds financial capital (unless, of course, they began life with substantial inherited wealth as a Nepo baby ).
This reality makes comparing your current net worth to that of established HNW individuals misleading. Their balance sheets are heavy with financial capital; yours is rightly still heavy with human capital. That is entirely normal.
That human capital has immense real world value and in time, it will naturally transition into financial capital
Just incase you want to give yourself some boost you can estimate your HC and recognize the immense capital you are actively building. Your balance sheet may currently be light on financial assets, but your underlying fundamentals based on the investment you’ve made in your career remains strong.
So In this video, I tried to explain how to calculate the HC. Also I did a demo on excel and used shiny library on R studio to demonstrate it.

On this Tax Issue, Mr Taiwo, I don't know what the implementation framework is for sensitization, but I really hope that influencers and celebrities are in the framework. They have the channel to sensitize; use them. Use them, please. So all this misinformation would stop.

"I just bought a solar panel worth over ₦1 million. Assuming they have started collecting the 25% income tax, how will I be able to afford it again? Imagine collecting 25% from someone earning ₦3 million annually, how much will the person now be getting?"
– Speed Darlington takes to the streets as he continues to call out President Tinubu over the proposed income tax he plans to implement early next year
To embody the cold, calculating CEO in Margin Call (2011), Jeremy Irons studied interviews of top bankers from the 2008 crisis, aiming to capture their calm, almost inhuman composure. He said that “real power never yells.”
