April 2016, I rounded up my program from the Yaba College of Technology (Yabatech) in Lagos state 

Months later, I applied and got an admission for a DLI program in the university of Ibadan (UI) - BSC degree in Psychology

​

A year into the program, I dropped out and gave up my plans of furthering for a bigger certificate

​

A week before I dropped out. 

​

I made a list of what it would cost me to live a comfortable life in Lagos

​

I got this idea of breaking down your target income like this

So, I wrote down the following expenses based on a daily basis.

With that I would know how much I needed to make per month.

​

The list went like this:

- 1 bedroom flat in Lekki - (N600,000/year or N1,645 daily)
- Toyota Camry 2006 – N1.8million or N4,930 daily
- Food and Domestics – N3,000 daily
- Wardrobe – N45k/month or N1500 daily
- Internet connection – N15k/month or N500 daily
- Fuel (petrol and gas) – N2000 daily
- DSTV – N15k/month or N500 daily
- Savings - N4,000 daily
--------------------------------
TOTAL - N18,075 daily
---------------------------------

​

That meant I needed an income flow of approximately N500,000 a month

​

As at then, the highest paying job I knew was that of a friend who got a job through his dads connection to work with a government official with a pay of 150k a month in Abuja

​

The odds were so low for me

​

I have got no connection - the only thing I would have to rely to live a comfortable life was my BSC certificate if I had to continue with the program 

​

I wasn't asking for too much - I just wanted to live a comfortable life

​

Based on my list, I would need to earn around N500k a month to make that happen

​

I didn't see the possibilities of making this much from a monthly job

​

So, I dropped out from my BSC program and decided to learn about running a business

​

Wait!!! 

​

Now that you're reading this, I'm not asking you to also drop out of school

​

In Today's world, You need not to be an illiterate - school is very important

​

For me then, I already had my certificate from Yabatech

​

I only wanted to get a bigger one so as to earn a bigger income 

​

I grew up, thinking that higher certificate = higher income

​

Maybe I was right or wrong... who knows

​

Back to my story, I dropped out and started learning about different business models with high profits

At first, I did a lot of try and error

​

Eventually, I set up a new online business that gave me an income of N200,000 at the start.

Few months later, I put in more effort into it and moved my monthly income to N500,000 a month.

​

As at today, I have now successfully grown 3 online businesses that I operate remotely

​

Late 2019, I bought and invested 2 cars into the Uber business (I don't drive these cars myself)

I currently live alone in a spacious two bedroom apartment in the expensive part of Lekki, Lagos

And I try not to miss my once-a-year vacation outside the country

Last year, I spent my 14-days vacation in Dubai and I visited a lot of nice places

Below are some of the pictures I took during my vacation
