I won't lie, I think about Herbert Wigwe almost every day.
For one, I followed his home building project, and was inspired by the meticulousness of the design as well as materials used -- a lot of which were imported.
I also followed his proposed University project. This man was a billionaire with taste. Every step, every project, every thing just felt intentional.
Literally anytime I read an update about him, I'll just be letting out, "omo...omooo."
I don't rate many people with money, but Wigwe understood how money moved and it showed in his whole branding and personality.
But see the way he died. I've still not let it go, almost like I'm a family member.
How can a man of that calibre die suddenly, without warning? Just like that. Permit me, but it would have been more bearable if his death came after a prolonged sickness. But just like that! And everyone just moved on.
I don't even consider myself too religious, but bro, remember God in your hustles. Follow the Pascal Wager, "if God isn't real, you have nothing to lose, if he is, you have everything to gain."
Happy Sunday.

Until Nigeria begins to have issue-based politics, we won’t make it out of the hood. Fact
Pick a random elected govt official and you cannot even tell what their ideology is. What do they believe in? what are they against? It is just vibes & you can’t run a country on vibes.
We are trained to go bigger, more money, more crypto, more AI agents, more friends, more projects, more plans, more everything, and less happy.
Happy people have a small circle of friends and simple routines.
