Nobody teaches them to own assets.
Nobody teaches them to buy cash flow.
Nobody teaches them to make money work without their body being present.
So they spend their best years building companies, buildings, brands, and empires they do not own, only to retire with a handshake, high blood pressure, and memories.
The wealthy understand something the poor don't:
If you must show up every day before money enters your account, you are not wealthy. You are rented.
The poor stay poor because they are stuck in a loop of labour, consumption, and dependency.
They earn, they spend, they borrow, they repeat.
The rich break that loop.
They use labour to buy assets.
They use assets to produce cash flow.
They use cash flow to buy freedom.
The poor work for money. The rich build systems that work for them.
That is why one man grows older with his bills. And another grows older with his wealth.
12 things you need to remember when you're doing well:

8. God places people in your life for a reason.
9. The moment you start to taste success, every temptation will come knocking at your door.
10. You're always going to upset people when you do what is best for yourself, so let your first audience be God.

Nigerian police officers have been warned not to search any individual’s phone. Anybody can record any police officer at his duty post. As long as the officer is doing the right thing, there is nothing to fear about being recorded.
~ Lagos CP says
If one day you become rich, remember these ten things:
1. Don't tell anyone, including your parents.
2. Pay off all debts owed to friends, banks, and online lenders first.
3. Once the money reaches your account, don't rush to move it around. Let it sit for a while and think clearly.
4. Don't purchase a house immediately or rent in a higher neighborhood.
5. Don't rush to quit your job right away.
6. Don't acquire a car or luxury goods yet.
7. Don't go into business with friends, relatives, or classmates.
8. If you have children, do everything possible to prevent them from knowing you're rich.
9. Maintain the status quo. Act like nothing has changed.
10. Be cautious with your information and avoid sharing your situation with everyone.
Most people who come into money lose it all because they broke every one of these rules.
A 24-year-old collapsed mid-marathon last week.
A 22-year-old died at the gym the week before.

Cardiac arrests in youth aren't rare anymore. And most were 100% preventable.
Here's what nobody tells you before you "grind":🧵
