7 THINGS THAT CAN MAKE YOU BROKE FASTER THAN VILLAGE PEOPLE
Forget jazz, forget enemies from the village—some of you are going broke at lightning speed, and it’s not because of witchcraft. Your own lifestyle is the real problem!
If you're always wondering "Who is eating my money?"—relax, Oga. The answer is you.
BRUTAL THREAD:
1. CHASING EVERY WOMAN YOU SEE
You think you're James Bond, moving from one fine girl to another, sponsoring their hair, nails, and data? Brother, you are your own Yahoo boy.
One babe says “I need urgent 2K”—you send.
Another one says “My rent is due”—you pay.
Next thing, your account balance is calling for GoFundMe.
Meanwhile, the same girls are in group chats laughing at you: “This guy dey try sha.”
Solution: Stop being an ATM with no PIN code. Focus on one woman or yourself first.
2. LIVING LIKE A BIG BOY WHEN YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE IS SHOUTING HELP
Your salary is 50K, but you're in clubs ordering Hennessy like Davido. You don’t even have a car, but you're buying drinks for strangers—WHO SENT YOU?
Rich men are saving, you are spraying money.
Dangote is investing, you are doing “Odogwu” at the bar.
Elon Musk is buying companies, you are buying bottles for slay queens who don’t know your surname.
When the landlord comes for rent, you’ll start saying “Boss, abeg, things hard.”
Solution: Cut down on fake luxury. Even Jeff Bezos wears simple T-shirts. Be wise.
3. SENDING MONEY TO FAMILY LIKE CBN
Your uncle calls: “We need money for burial.”
Your aunt calls: “No food in the house.”
Your younger brother: “School fees.”
Now your account is empty, but when you need help? Nobody picks your call.
Oga, you are not the Minister of Finance. Even government doesn’t share free money like you do!
Solution: Learn to say NO sometimes! Help when you can, but don’t let family turn you into their personal budget.
4. ALWAYS BUYING THE LATEST PHONE TO IMPRESS WHO?
Last month, you were using iPhone 12.
This month, you saw iPhone 15 Pro Max and sold your kidney to buy it.
Next month, iPhone 16 Ultra Mega Max will drop—what will you sell next? Your destiny?
Meanwhile, the person you’re trying to impress is using Tecno Pop 5 and doesn’t care.
Solution: If your current phone is working, rest. Your future is more important than “Dynamic Island.”
5. FALLING FOR EVERY FAKE INVESTMENT SCHEME
They told you "Invest 50K, get 500K in 2 days."
You ran like Bolt, deposited your money.
Now, they’ve blocked you, and you’re writing epistles on Facebook: “Dear Nigerians, beware of fraudsters!”
Oga, they didn’t scam you, you scammed yourself!
Any investment that sounds like magic money is a Ponzi scheme in disguise.
Solution: If you don’t understand the business, don’t put your money there. Learn to invest wisely!
6. GOING BROKE JUST TO IMPRESS SOCIAL MEDIA
Your house rent is due, but you're buying designer shoes to take pictures for Instagram. Who told you “likes and comments” can pay rent?
You posted “Soft life only.”
But in real life, you’re trekking and borrowing money for food.
If your phone falls, you’ll cry because you can’t afford to fix it.
Solution: Stop forming fake rich life. Invest first, flex later.
7. BEING TOO LAZY TO MAKE MORE MONEY
You sit at home, scrolling Facebook from morning till night, complaining: “No job, Nigeria is hard.”
Meanwhile, opportunities are passing you by! Are you expecting an angel to drop money from the sky?
People are making money online—you are watching TikTok videos all day.
People are learning skills—you are arguing about football.
People are opening businesses—you are waiting for your rich uncle to die so you can inherit land.
Solution: Get up and hustle! Even the Bible says “A lazy man shall not eat.”
BOTTOM LINE:
If you're always broke, stop blaming village people. Your habits are the real witchcraft!
Live within your means.
Invest before you flex.
Stop impressing people who don’t care.
Make smart financial decisions.
If this post hit you hard, don’t cry. Just change your ways!

"In 2001, I had to stop acting because I was going through a lot. I got an opportunity to travel to London, and I took it. I needed to clear my head after losing my mom because I was the one taking care of them.
While abroad, I worked as a caregiver, taking care of both the old and young. My parents were waiting for me to return, but sadly, my mom passed away before she could fully enjoy the fruits of my hard work. I miss her dearly.
When I finally returned home, I had saved enough money to start a business before going back into acting. I have been through a lot in this life. Unless I tell you, you would never know.
I didn’t succeed in a day, and that’s why I love helping others."— Rita Dominic
May our parents be alive to reap the fruit of their labour

“What Have You Ever Done for Me?” — The Final Slap Every Simp Receives
This is the bitter reality simps refuse to accept until it’s too late. You break your back, you sacrifice, you play sponsor, you pay her fees, you fund her dreams, and the moment she levels up, the words that pierce your soul are:
“What have you ever done for me?”
Or worse…
“Did I ask you to do it?”
This is the currency of an ungrateful woman. And it is the death sentence every simp receives after investing in a woman who never respected him in the first place. You see, you thought by giving, funding, and sacrificing, you were securing love. Wrong. You were only paying for temporary company.
She’ll smile while she’s broke. She’ll act submissive when she needs help. But the second that degree is in her hand, and she steps into a new circle, you instantly become “too local,” “too small,” “too average.” Now, you’re just the illiterate mechanic, the village boy, the one who was “just helping,” not the man she wants to build with.
Make no mistake—women don’t stay with men out of pity. They stay with men they admire. When you sponsor her without demanding accountability, without vetting her character, you are setting yourself up for humiliation.
The Code Is Simple:
Stop playing philanthropist to ungrateful women. Invest in yourself first. Build your empire before you attempt to build anyone else’s. If you’re not a king, don’t be surprised when she jumps ship for one.
Simping is not love—it’s self-inflicted slavery. Be wise. Be ruthless. Be Alpha.“What Have You Ever Done for Me?” — The Final Slap Every Simp Receives This is the bitter reality simps refuse to accept until it’s too late.

Yassine Cheuko (Messi's bodyguard): "I'm no longer allowed on the pitch. I worked in Europe for seven years in the French league and the Champions League. During that time, only six people invaded the pitch.
I arrived in the United States. In 20 months here, 16 people invaded the pitch. There's a big problem here. I'm not the problem. Let me help Leo!"
I love MLS and CONCACAF, but we have to work together. I love helping. I'm not better than anyone, but I have my experience from Europe. It's okay. I understand the decision, but I think we can do better."

WHETHER YOU ARE MARRIED OR NOT,
READ THIS AND LEARN.
"Dad, can you loan me Five Hundred Thousand Naira?" Kola asked his father.
"What for son?", his father asked.
"For my wedding. By our calculations, we're falling short meeting the cost".
Kola had come to meet his parents with his fiancé.
"Your wedding? How much is the total cost of the wedding?", his father asked.
"N3.6 million. We're thinking of starting the committee next week. We can together give about eight hundred thousand and expect our friends to help us raise about two million. I remember you told me if ever I need help I can come to you" Kola answered.
His father held him by the shoulder and said
"Go get your wife and come meet me at my study room".
"Yes dad", Kola obliged.
Minutes later, Kola and his fiancé,Tomilayo walked into his father's study room.
"Having a good time my daughter?" Kola's
father asked.
"Yes I am. You and your wife are so hospitable. I pray that Kola and I can emulate your marriage. You are an admirable couple" answered Kola's fiance.
"Thank you. I am delighted to have you as my daughter. This is your home, you're welcome anytime", said father.
They sat down.
"Thank you dad"
"So, I hear you want to spend N3.6 million for your wedding and you need me to help with five hundred thousand?", asked father.
"Yes, we will greatly appreciate" said the fiancé.
"The wedding will be at the Total Garden Ibadan in about six months time", said Kola.
"Why do you want to have a big wedding?",
father asked.
"Well, it's our big day. She's always dreamt of a big wedding", Kola replied.
"Have you dreamt of a big wedding or a strong marriage?", The father asked the fiancé.
"When you put it that way, it's more of a strong marriage" said the fiancé.
"Good. You've answered wisely. So who do you expect to come for your wedding?", asked the father.
"Friends and relatives. About seven hundred people", answered Kola.
"How many true friends do you really have?",
I mean friends who have been tried and tested to be there for you through thick and thin?, asked the father.
Kola and Tomilayo looked at each other.
"Countable", the fiancé answered.
"So who are these other people who will come to your wedding?", asked the father.
Silence.
"OK. Let's go to the relatives. I know you love your relatives, but how many are really close to you? You barely talk with the many relatives you have", said the father.
"What are you trying to say dad?" asked Kola.
"My son, my daughter; why do you want to spend N3.6 million on a wedding, a one day event yet you need the money in your marriage? Look, you are actually coming to ask me for money, you will form a
committee to ask people for money; all to show off and please people who will not even matter in your marriage"
Silence.
The father continued, "Let me share with you my experience. When I married your mother, we spent about a million for the wedding. That was a lot of money then. We fed people, got stressed by service providers, just so that we put up a wedding that will win the applause of a crowd. But as soon as we got married, the crowd disappeared. All the issues that your mother and I went through, no one cared, even family couldn't do much. Every one is busy living their life. When things got tough, the crowd gossiped about us, some even seemed happy that our marriage was in trouble" Silence.
"I have seen this script repeated over and over. Brides get stressed on their wedding day, they can't even enjoy, couples being angry at friends who don't support them financially, the worst part is starting marriage in debt or struggling financially. Do you know a wedding doesn't have to cost so much, it doesn't have to be stressful, it doesn't have to be full of people who perhaps will never talk to you again?" added the father.
"But dad, what will people think if we do a small wedding or we don't invite them?"asked the fiancé.
"Are you getting married for people? If you have a small wedding with only the witnesses who matter, will you two not be married? What is all this competition of who has a grand wedding for?
People are competing on Facebook, in weddings; why this need to show off? You know that money you are about to blow in one day, you can use it to invest in your marriage, you can start the process of buying or building a home, you can save up for the needs of the children you will have because you need money to raise a family. Why not start your marriage financially healthy and not in debt?
Marriage is what is more important than a
wedding", continued the father.
"Dad, if you don't want to support us it's
okay", said Kola. The fiancé stopped him saying, "No my love, dad has a point. I actually find the idea of a small wedding not just wise and economical, but also intimate. Marriage is
just you and me, not people".
The father spoke, "My son, in all the years
you have been a man, you have never come
to me asking for money, but now you are
asking for money to put up a show? I look
further, I look at your marriage. I admire
how people come together in a wedding
committee to raise money and I wonder,
what if couples and people use that same
energy to put up a business that will uplift
families. Those members who will be part of
your wedding committee, imagine if they
become your investors, imagine if you build
a company where you can make profit and
feed your homes. Something sustainable."
Kola and his fiancé nodded.
"My son, I have longed for the day you
would come and ask me to invest in your
business idea. But today I will make the first
move", the father said taking his cheque
book from his drawer. He wrote on the cheque then gave it to the fiancé.
"Here my son, this is a cheque of five million
naira, not for your wedding but as start up
capital for a business of your choice. I am
giving the cheque to your wife because as
the Proverbs 31 woman said, she is to walk
with you in building an empire for your
family. Focus on your family, give your family
the best; forget about the public and
opinions of people who don't matter. Build
a future for your family. Build your family on
a foundation of surplus not debt".
"Thank you so much" said the fiancé.
Kola stood up with tears in his eyes. His
father stood up too. The father and son hugged.
"Thank you dad for being a great figure and
your counsel. I don't know what to say. You
have challenged me not to merely get
married but to have a vision, a vision for my
family. I don't know what to say" he spoke.
The father held his shoulder, "You will make
a great husband and father. I wish I had the
same counsel when I was getting married,
all those people I fed on my wedding day
didn't add value to my marriage. In fact, if I
was to organize an event and feed
multitudes, I would do so for the less
fortunate and those in need.
Marriage is not for show.

“N*ggä Raw brought Phyno to come and meet us at Ajao Estate in Lagos. Me being the lead artiste in my label, I was like Phyno, what do you do? He said he was a rapper. I said ok, rap for me. And man started rapping with American accent, & only added a little Igbo.
“I now told him: bro, you’re good. But this American rap thing won’t help you. Don’t you know my songs? Don’t you see how I sing in Yoruba? Or don’t you see how N*ggæ Raw is k*lling it in Igbo? Look, there’s a huge community of Igbos in the world, if you channel this your skill to rapping in Igbo, you’ll do so well.
“Phyno was a very cool headed guy who didn’t like to talk too much. He just said, thank you baba. I appreciate your advice.
“After some months, I heard him spitting hard in Igbo on his song “Ghost Mode” with Olamide. And the rest is history.” — Nigerian OG artiste, Konga“N*ggä Raw brought Phyno to come and meet us at Ajao Estate in Lagos. Me being the lead artiste in my label, I was like Phyno, what do you do? He said he was a rapper. I said ok, rap for me. And man started rapping with American accent, & only added a little Igbo. “I now told him: bro, you’re good. But this American rap thing won’t help you. Don’t you know my songs? Don’t you see how I sing in Yoruba? Or don’t you see how N*ggæ Raw is k*lling it in Igbo? Look, there’s a huge community of Igbos in the world, if you channel this your skill to rapping in Igbo, you’ll do so well. “Phyno was a very cool headed guy who didn’t like to talk too much. He just said, thank you baba. I appreciate your advice. “After some months, I heard him spitting hard in Igbo on his song “Ghost Mode” with Olamide. And the rest is history.” — Nigerian OG artiste, Konga0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 34 Visualizações 0 Anterior -
An eagle was flying high—confident, self-assured, and in control. But out of nowhere, an arrow struck him in the chest and brought him down.
As he fell, he looked at the shaft of the arrow and noticed something unsettling—it was feathered with his own plumes. The hunter had used feathers from an eagle to kill an eagle.
And just before he hit the ground, the eagle said, “It is not the arrow that pains me, but the fact that it was winged with my own feathers.”
This simple fable carries a powerful truth: we are often hurt most deeply by the things or people closest to us—by those we trust, support, or invest in. Being attacked by a stranger can sting, but betrayal from someone you once believed in cuts differently.
The real pain isn’t just the wound—it’s knowing that your own contribution, time, or loyalty made that wound possible. You handed over the feathers.
This shows up all the time in real life. Steve Jobs was forced out of Apple—the very company he helped build. The same systems and people he developed eventually turned against him.
Julius Caesar was assassinated by men he considered allies—people he had elevated and trusted, including Brutus. His final words, “Et tu, Brute?” captured the devastation of betrayal by someone within his inner circle.
And in our own lives, we may not face political assassinations or corporate oustings, but the pattern is familiar: a friend you helped grow suddenly competes with you; a person you mentored turns on you; someone you protected uses your openness against you.
The message here is not to stop trusting, giving, or supporting others—but to become more discerning. Not everyone who praises you has your best interests at heart. Not every connection deserves deep access.
We often confuse loyalty with access and admiration with trust. But as Tupac once said, “Sometimes the person you’d take a bullet for is the one behind the gun.” And as the saying goes, “Be careful who you trust. Salt and sugar look the same.”
This fable is a quiet reminder that while generosity is noble, it must be paired with wisdom. Pay attention to the patterns, the energy, and the consistency of people. Be mindful of what you give and to whom.
Because sometimes, the most painful arrows are the ones feathered with your own wings.
