I passed my driving test in January 2019. I had failed twice late 2018 and that meant I had very good relationship with my Pakistani UK born driving instructor.
I bought the white Audi cabriolet cash and was living in a house share and paid only £460 per month as rent.
I was saving a lot of money and felt I was very smart.
One day, a psychopath packed into our house and started giving everyone grief. I even was worried about my food in the communal fridge that I bought a small fridge and put in my own room but that wouldn’t accommodate all my food as I cooked en bulk and used all through the week.
Also, my car dazzled me so bad in winter that I ended up on the walkway one night after a long shift just leaving the hospital as the wintry ice and the street lights combined to whine me. Thank God no one was walking then n no one hurt.
I got home that night and had a very long thought about my life.
The psychopath at home could kpai me or my car could, but I had very decent amount in savings, if I died, would I have lived a smart life? My answer was no.
Next day (this was in 2020) I went house hunting and bought a house immediately. I also bought the Benz in the 2nd and 3rd frames. My driving instructor friend saw me driving a Benz and was very upset with him.
He said it was a waste of money and that I would regret that decision. This caused friction in our relationship and we became more distant. 6 years down the line, I’ve not regretted that decision, infact, I’ve had two more expensive cars since then and very happy.
If I had died managing the Audi or if the psychopath poisoned my food, I would have died with over £100k sitting in my account while I was trying to save more money. Nah, I won’t be a slave to money ever again!!
@sholex4u11@Joe_brendan_ When you are 80 years please revisit this statement that your child owes you nothing, not even a card at Christmas or a visit.
@chukwura_a@MaryanneMoghalu@ChidiOdinkalu They keep them impoverished and blind to the light a good education gives! Talk about the selfishness of humans especially from “that region”
@Rich_Mind1@MaryanneMoghalu Why should the government propose cattle colonies? Is cattle rearing not a private business? Why should government even think of the idea of imposing cattle colonies on other states?! Are cattle breeders more special than other farmers?
@renoomokri smh you said nothing about the numerous NYSC members that lost their lives while serving. What exactly is your point? trying to curry favour from government? while we are on the issue of comparism those nations will move heaven and earth just to rescue one of their citizens!
@renoomokri This tax my brother is not up to what I pay in a month here in Nigeria! Yet I don’t get to drive on good roads and I don’t get all the social amenities you mentioned. Quit showing off already!
@renoomokri How can you draw such conclusions by this singular video? That the musician is justified in his actions or what?What a sorry comparison! I least expect this from you. How are Nigerians lucky? That the Nigerian police have been so denigrated? Does that make you happy?
