WHY NIGERIANS ALWAYS FALL FOR SCAM INVESTMENTS

 


It seems that when it comes to scam investments, Nigerians, regardless of how much they have lost in the past, never learn their lessons.


The situation in Nigeria has turned several people into criminals, and sometimes we know it. We are just hoping to benefit from the loot and in the end, many of us become the loots.

From MMM to several Ponzi schemes, to Chinmark, and most recently Ovaioza, Nigeria has always had scams or bad investments through which people lose their monies year in, year out. There are people who lost their monies to those three mentioned above. It seems to me that they do not learn their lessons.

 

Someone I know recently invested up to 15 million, 13 million of which is not his money, in a scam investment. In fact, the money included the ones he has been saving to get married. He had to abandon his house and run out of Lagos, people whose money he collected to invest are now on the lookout for him.

 

The marriage has also been canceled – there is no doubt that his life is shattered. He is still hiding away from people, whose monies he invested as I speak.

A lot of folks have been killed; some are in prison while a lot of others committed suicide for losing their monies to scam investments but it seems we never really learn our lessons.

 

Nearly all Nigerians have lost money to scam investments at one time or another, except the elites that make up only 5% of the entire population, and who control the economy. However, when you ask if people have lost money to scam investments, they can’t admit it.

 

Losing money to scam investments is like claiming to know God and getting scammed by your religion leader. You will not be able to expose the religion leader because doing so exposes your ignorance of God.

 

When people lose money to scam investments, they keep quiet about it because they are afraid of being tagged greedy. However, losing money to scam investments has very little to do with being greedy and more to do with other things that most people do not know.

 

The reasons why people lose their monies are divided into three categories, namely.

1. The Internal Triggers

2. The Business Strategies

3. Ignorance of the Safety Signs

 

Greed is one of the internal triggers but there are more. Even if there are no internal triggers, the business strategies of the scammers can induce you to fall victim. This is why you need to learn about safety signs.

All of these are written in my yet-to-be-released book titled “STOP THROWING MONEY AWAY”. If you do not wish to lose your money to scam investments anymore, then you need to read this book.

 

The book will be released next month, but you can learn more about it and get information on how you can get to read it by clicking on the WhatsApp group link below.

THE RUDIMENTS OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION

Image
Let ’ s start by knowing what we call Communication. COMMUNICATION As food and water is crucial to human survival, so does Communication. Communication pervades every human activity, man cannot do without it. We are engrossed in it from the time we wake up in the morning until we go back to bed in the night; from birth to death we are in perpetual state of communication. It is a phenomenon that cuts across the daily activities of human beings. In fact, the pervasive nature of communication makes it impossible for us to ever refuse to communicate as long as we are living. Hence, the axiom; “ we cannot not communicate ” comes into place. In view of the above, one will see that communication is very important to man. It is a cord that binds every part of the society together. Human activities and achievements have relationship with communication whether one expresses himself verbally or through non-verbal means, even when a man is presumed silent, he is in a way

SOUL'E RHYMEZ POETRY COMPETITION SEASON1

POEM 1 And Divinity Wept Love I marvel how Divinity could ever demonstrate love A love for humanity so pure as pure as a dove: In his love was love and a love void of lust, For on the cross he bled and suffered to save the lost. He considered not the affliction and pain For with his suffering comes great gain; With his blood the sin of mankind was cleansed As perfect redemption was made that heavens may be appeased. He was the precious lamb sent to save the world, And redeem man from a life of mod; His love was divine and so he died for man to find peace; That by his death man's suffering may cease. His death brought freedom and gave man hope Of eternity and a hope for a heavenly robe, Though his suffering and agony was grave Yet he loved man so much that his life he gave. His heart of love made him endure the cross, For he died that he may redeem man from loss; Being divine his blood made man as pure as a dove Even in death, still in his heart was love.

HOLINESS AND VIRGINITY

Image
Talking about virginity to some people, you are indirectly talking about holiness, but have we ever tried to ask what the differences are? Does virginity have anything to do with holiness? Maybe we just don’t define them rightly. Now let’s define them. According to Oxford Dictionary, holy from which holiness is derived are defined as follows: 1. Morally and spiritually excellent or perfect, and to be revered. 2. Belonging to or devoted to God. 3. consecrated, sacred. [Old English: related to *whole] Let’s talk the meaning of virginity just as well. Virginity means remaining a virgin and according to Oxford Dictionary virgin is defined as follows: 1. Person who has never had sexual intercourse. 2. (The Virgin) Christ's mother Mary. 3. (The Virgin) sign or constellation Virgo. —adj. 1 not yet used etc. 2. Virginal. [Latin virgo -gin-] All the above definitions of virgin points to one thing: natural state of something; a state of not being utilized.
