Squeeze of Life
It was supposed to be a peaceful ride to Oshodi. But for Chike, today was judgment day.
He entered the bus and saw only one empty spot sandwiched between Mama Titi and Aunty Bola, two market women known in Lagos for selling tomatoes and taking up extra spiritual space.
As soon as he sat, it felt like the universe closed in on him. His ribs were playing musical chairs, and his lungs submitted their resignation letter.
Mama Titi on the left kept adjusting, pushing him deeper into Aunty Bola’s mountain of flesh.
Walahi driver, I won’t pay you oh.. Chike suddenly shouted, his voice cracking like chin-chin under pressure. See what is happening to me
The whole bus turned to look. The driver nearly swerved.
Mama Titi replied, You dey cry? You never jam Mama Nnukwu. She go use one hip dislocate your destiny
Aunty Bola added, Oya shift small na, or you want to disappear into my armpit
Chike looked at the driver with teary eyes. Oga please stop. I want to come down and be going to heaven directly
Never underestimate small seats and big blessings.

MATURITY IS A MINDSET, NOT AGE. HERE ARE 14 SIGNS YOU ARE MATURE :
You are not scared to be alone.
You realize money is not evil. Lack of money is.
You know that you are your worst enemy and you are your best supporter too.
You realize that life's much better when no one knows anything about you.
You don't care what other people think about you anymore.
You stop chasing meaningless relationships and focus on improving yourself.
You focus more on the opportunity of learning than the risk of failure.
You don't stress about things that are out of your control.
You understand that 9-5 won't help you achieve financial freedom.
You understand that you get paid based on the value you are providing.
In the real world, grades aren't the only measure of value. Connections, background, and practical skills often surpass academic performance. While grades may open doors.
You understand that life's much better when you focus on improving yourself rather than partying every weekend.
You realize that in the end only your family and a few true friends will be there for you.
You also realize that in the end, even your family and friends will leave you, only the God remains with you. #moneyupacademy #MoneyUpAcademyMATURITY IS A MINDSET, NOT AGE.

IT’S NEVER TOO LATE TO START
At 65, most people slow down and settle into retirement. But for Colonel Harland Sanders, he was just getting started.
After a lifetime of failures—fired from jobs, his restaurant shut down, and surviving on a tiny Social Security check—he found himself at rock bottom. But instead of giving up, he did something crazy.
With nothing but a chicken recipe and a beat-up car, he hit the road, knocking on doors, sleeping in his car, and facing 1,009 rejections. Restaurant owners laughed at him. Told him no. Again and again.
But then, on the 1,010th try, someone finally said yes.
That one yes became Kentucky Fried Chicken—a global empire built by a man who refused to quit.
---
So what’s stopping you?
Too old? Sanders started at 65.
No money? He was broke.
Scared of failure? He failed more times than most people even try.
The difference? He never stopped.
It’s not too late to start that idea, that business, that dream. Take the first step.

Kojo and Goat Business
One hot afternoon in the village, Papa Kwame was sitting peacefully on his bench, enjoying his pipe and daydreaming about his young days as a wrestler. Suddenly, his son, Kojo, burst into the compound like a 3understorm.
Papa he shouted, eyes wide with excitement. Please give me an advance on my inheritance. When you dye, I’ll collect the rest
Papa nearly swallowed his pipe. He froze, then slowly turned his head like a confused tortoise. Ehn? You mean I should dye in parts
Kojo, with hands flying like a market woman, continued, Just small now, papa. I want to invest in goat business
Papa stood up, grabbed his cane and shouted, Your inheritance is my cane today, and the rest will come with my ghost
Kojo ran faster than Usain Bolt, shouting, Papa no ooo. I was only joking
That day, Kojo learned not to rush a living lion for his bones.Kojo and Goat Business 🤣🤣🤣🤣 One hot afternoon in the village, Papa Kwame was sitting peacefully on his bench, enjoying his pipe and daydreaming about his young days as a wrestler.
