Smart People Spend Wisely.

My take on the AMVCA dress Invoice. Outside the Nigerian setting, you won't see wives of Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett or Tim Cook's wife owner of iPhone company  pay millions of dollars on a dress for an occasion.  Even in Nigeria, you won't see Tony Elumelu's wife, Otedola's wife or Influential people in the business cycle wearing a dress worth millions just to attend an occasion. Not because they can't afford it but because they are business minded people and they know when money is being wasted on things that don't have Value or things that won't generate more money. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad to look good on expensive dresses, and I also know that some people derive joy in looking good or maybe trying to Impress or intimidate others with their outfits.  The bottom line is, you need to know when something is 'Important' but not necessary or when you 'Want' som...

When I raised the topic, my mum objected that she doesn't want me to be too far from her.

We got talking about a lot of things and finally landed on how she lost her husband during a business trip he went for in one of the Cities. When I a...

5 different plates of OKRA soup with different taste. 1st plate was prepared with melon. 2nd plate was cooked with curry leaves 3rd plate was prepared with hot leaves 4th plate was cooked with bitter leaves 5th plate was cooked with vegetable leaves.
