You see all the adjustments you made after you realised Elon’s pay won’t be coming in massive anymore?
Thats the real secret to success, if only you do it before ur source of income stops.
Before I bought my personal first car, I already had Diana and another car doing public transport for me.
I go get 10m, I go Dey do like say na 1m I get…my dad thought me, if I can’t buy it twice, then I can’t afford it, me took it personally, if I no fit buy am 3 to times, I dey comot body.
Before I eventually started living comfortably ehn…my account don over swell.
One of My friend came to sleep in my house, there was no Ac, fan dey blow but heat still dey, baba come dey laugh me, day break I went to buy AC, and big gen to carry the AC, I kept my previous gen.
Them mock my Camry 2.4 tire till I changed it to Voltron…my guys will rather come and pick me if we get location, than to allow me drive my 2.4.
By the time I bought Venza I don already complete my hostels, I don get houses, and lands, I don already get businesses.
Almost all my guys wey get GLA, Lexus, back then don sell their cars…today money wey I save up during those times still Dey fetch me millions annually, aside the businesses o meanwhile na now them dey scramble to put some business together.
Make hay while the sun shines, no be when rain don begin fall u go Dey make adjustments. It’ll give u an edge in life.
The day I bought this my bike worth N1.5M, I had just N1.6M in my account and I still went ahead to buy it.
For me, my hope was to continue being paid by landlord. I felt like as long as the money kept coming, I’d be fine.
Unfortunately for me, the pay stopped coming. I had already spent almost everything on the bike, so I had to start cutting my expenses. Started making my own food at home, stopped unnecessary outings and all.
But looking back, I’m very sure that if I didn’t buy the bike that time and this same thing happened, I would still get broke even with the fact that I didn’t buy the bike.
As long as your source of income stops, you’ll likely spend finish and get broke.
That’s when I realized you shouldn’t always overthink buying something you genuinely want when you finally have the money for it.
You should buy what you want as soon as you have the money. If you even use N12M to buy a car out of N15M, walai nothing will happen to you. Na wetin settings boys dey package.
Once you have the car, your guys that’ll always want to enjoy the comfort of having a car will fuel it.
The regret of not buying an asset when you had the money will always be more than buying it and getting broke.
