@elonmusk@elonmusk, here’s a simple investment proposition:Invest $1M ≈ ₦1.351B in a Nigerian mutual fund targeting 15% annual return.₦1.351B × 15% = ₦202.59M/year (~$150K)Your 30%: ₦60.78M (~$45K)
My 70%: ₦141.81M (~$105K)The $1M principal remains invested. You earn. I build.
The Difference Between Dangote And Fada Oluoma.
I read that a new research has shown that the top wealthiest 25% of Americans aren't better off than the poorest citizens in Europe. In other words, Europe's poorest citizens live as long as America's richest citizens. The excess money America's richest have doesn't buy them extra years. I'm most definitely sure it doesn't buy them extra happiness, joy and fulfillment more than the poorest dudes in Europe. It does buy them extra pleasures and things to indulge in, but not extra LIFE.
How do we explain this? The research says Europe's public health schemes or systems and other structures of social services are responsible. America's Healthcare system is broken and health care is expensive there.
Still, going by the logic of wealth, this broken Healthcare and other public systems should affect only the poor, it shouldn't be a problem to the wealthy who can afford any health care. In America, reality cancels that logic. It does affect them.
There is also a phenomenon called the "inverted U Curve" described in Malcolm Gladwell's David and Goliath book that we can probably use to explain this. Lack of money or shortage of it has negative effect on your health or happiness. A certain amount will give you the maximum results of good health. Beyond that level, more money leads to depreciation or what you call diminishing return.
As e be now, e fit be say Dangote is not happier than me, according to this theory. If he is, it is not because of his excess wealth. This statement is even making me feel like .
Guys, but that is the truth. It is proven. What needs to be solved is why a Fada Oluoma would still prefer to have a Dangote's wealth despite the fact that not having it doesn't make him less happier. That question becomes existential and essential in places like Europe.
Worse still are those who are killing, robbing, duping and impoverishing millions of others just to have more than they need, more than is necessary. How do politicians and greedy religious leaders not get this? Wealth can actually become a burden or curse to an individual in this respect.
For decades, the Scandinavian countries have topped the chart as the happiest countries of the world. They don't boast of global billionaires as you would find in the USA and other first world countries. They are not among the superpowers militarily. They are just a bunch of comfortable and well run countries with strong social institutions of welfare for their citizens.
A country that makes it's citizens see the acquisition of stupendous wealth as the guarantee for good, long and healthy life is closer to the Hobbesian state of nature than it is to modern civilization.
When a country is well run, having wealth or excess money becomes an opportunity than a necessity. The difference between Dangote and Fada Oluoma in such a country will be just wealth and excess money, not health, not safety, not longevity, not shelter, not comfort.
This is why GOVERNMENT makes all the difference. Can't we just hire some Europeans to govern Nigeria for 10 years? We draw a contract and pay them same way we pay foreign coaches. We save ourselves the stress and cost of elections for 10 years. Wetin else I wan talk na, make we just reason am small.
Britain colonised us but we went and adopted American presidential system that is ANNOYINGLY expensive and wasteful without necessarily delivering productive governance. Have you ever heard of election rigging, violence or vote buying in the UK?
Government! Government !Government.
I learned that Nigerian leaders are criminals. What do criminals do? They hide when they pass around people.
Na why Tinubu go carry security as if anybody they come for his life.... These Nigerian leaders are lucky.
Where are the flaws in this challenge?

It's incompetence from top to bottom.
The nation is being driven by unfit drivers, starting with the government.
