I try not to borrow, first you borrow then you beg (Ernest Hemingway)

The goal of retirement is to live off your assets-not on them (Frank Eberhart)

The virtues of free enterprise can become distorted by greed and delusion (Allan Lokos)

If money management isn't something you enjoy, consider my perspective. I look at managing my money as if it were a part-time job. The time you spend monitoring your finances will pay off.

I'd challenge you to find a part-time job where you could potentially earn as much money for just an hour or two of your time (Laura D. Adams)

The first rule in making money is not to lose it (Steven J. Lee)

Raising interest rates is voo-doo. You can't deal with a global system problem by trying to solve it with this (Stafford Beer)

You attract poverty when you lack value for time (Sunday Adelaja)

Nothing Good Comes Easy (Dr. Nosa's Success Story)

This is an inspiring Success Story by Dr. Ewere Thompson Nosa, a Medical Doctor and graduate of the University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT) Dr. Ewere Thompson Nosa ----- After rounding up my Secondary School education, and losing my Dad to the cold hands of death in 2009; I decided to fend for myself, and complement the support I was getting from my wonderful siblings. I had to do this because I don't like depending on anyone wholly, plus the fact that finance was limited and things were not all rossy. So I started off as a phone technician at Third junction in Benin. It wasn't easy for me as I was a bit too young and innocent to hussle in such kind of environment. I faced a lot of reproach, rejections and oppressions. I can remember a day I was beaten up at my work place, by some cultists for not fixing their phones to their specification. I also faced a lot of disappointments even among my loved ones. Well, that's all history. I endured all and passed

You do not need to invite the Holy Spirit

By -

I and a friend discussed about this today, and he disagreed wholly, until I showed him the Word. I once used to pray like this whenever we were to go into an 'anointing service.' “We invite the Holy Spirit into this place.” “The Holy Spirit really showed up this morning!” If you have been a Christian for any amount of time, you have no doubt heard these expressions. In fact, you have probably said at least one of them yourself. I know I have! Many believers today often open up church services or worship meetings with prayers like “come, Holy Spirit!” Yet I suspect these prayers may not need to be prayed. Indeed, they may actually cause more harm than good. Allow me to explain. As a Christian, I believe that any person who puts their faith (active trust) in Jesus is given the Holy Spirit. He is described in the Bible as a “seal” we have been given (2 Corinthians 1:22), and as a promised gift from God (Acts 2:38, Acts 10:45). Throughout the New Testament, ever after God

Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -

This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i

(Part 1) "I think my husband is cheating on me" Eukera informs her baby Sister. "How do you know, or did he confess this himself?" Esther asks as she returns to the sitting room with a tray containing fruits.. She always entertains her Sister this way. "I know it, I'm not a baby you know. I will find that lady who has the guts to go out with my husband, and when I do.. Oh Lord, Oh Jehovah, She will regret ever being born", Eukera answers as she bites into an apple she had just taken off the tray her sister had brought. "I will recommend you do not conclude based on just a hunch. If he is really cheating on you, we will find out one day. I personally will get him arrested and dealt with. As for the lady, let me not even say anything". "Hahahaha, I trust you, but that won't be necessary. I can handle this. Thanks Sis". Just then, Eukera's phone rings. It's a call from her office. She grabs another apple, hurriedly g

Geek Charming (2011)

Another cool movie to talk about. It's based on the novel by Robin Palmer. Geek Charming stars Sarah Hyland (Dylan Schoenfield), Matt Prokop (Josh Rosen), Sasha Pieterse (Amy Loubalu), among others. Photo Credit: Wikipedia Some things I learnt from the movie: • Challenging Yourself to something different and new, can teach you more and help bring out some uniqueness in You. Josh's movie on a human subject (Dylan) was a big challenge to execute. Most of the other persons involved in the Puget sound film festival, picked a non human subject. As an aspiring film maker, one of a very young age, a documentary on a human subject was something so big and rare, and very challenging. Josh picked up the challenge, one which didn't just help him win the festival, but also helped him discover the real personality of Dylan; how her mum meant so much to her and how the loss of her mum when she was eight years old had affected her and shaped her social life. Josh wasn

The Weekly WhatsApp Status-Quotes Challenge – The LPI

By -

Hello Friends, The Love and Positivity Initiative (LPI) has been Great! Some days ago (Tuesday, the 16th of January, to be precise), I got an idea which I shared with the members of the LPI WhatsApp Group. I was inspired to write four Positivity Quotes which I'll share here. The idea is about uploading Five Positivity Quotes as part of one's WhatsApp status, one each on each of the five working days of the week. This will be repeated every week, probably for a couple of months. The Personal benefit of this, is that one's subconcious mind will take in those positive words every morning, and those words will have positive control over one's mindset, then words, actions, character and attitude. At the same time, one is inspiring his/her friends who read the statuses, and with time, a positive impact is made on the mindset of the readers, which would manifest on their attitude. It's all about creating a ripple effect of Positivity, and it can only start with us an

Understanding the Factors that make Children Brilliant

I am sharing this article I came across on Facebook. The Credit goes to The Raise Genius Children Group, a group on Facebook. Here goes the article: This is a long article but you can't raise smart kids if you won't read so lets go lovely parents. Every parent I have met wants a brilliant child and I have also met some that would get enraged if a child comes back with a subpar report card and even go as far as beating a child that isn’t doing fantastic in class. I always wonder why they do that because the truth is there are a lot of factors that make a child brilliant and very few of them depends on the child. In fact I can say the only factor that depends on the child is concentration and seriousness. Every other thing including the ability to think, assimilate, read, memorize, prepare and a host of others fall under the purview of the parents whether consciously or unconsciously. WITH THAT SAID WE WILL LOOK AT THE LONG HELD NATURE VERSUS NURTURE DEBATE: The "Nat
