How Not to Lose Your Money


There are many ways to lose money, hence this list is not exhaustible. You can lose money by very simple and straight forward ways like by misplacing it, being careless with it, exposing it to theft, giving it to an ingrate e.t.c. There are also more complicated ways of loosing your money, like buying a product that won’t sell, a product that doesn’t work, being duped, investing in shares that is going down and selling before it goes up, gambling e.t.c. The list goes on and I’m sure you can remember many ways in which you have lost money. This is however not about all those ways, it is about a way that is common these days, and one that you might encounter if you get “gear” before you get “wit”.

Increasingly I see people developing a fundamental attitude about investing their money. People say that investments are all about putting your money somewhere where you don’t have to worry about what is being done with the money, so far you get your interests. This is wrong. Mark my words, any money you make without work, will not last! Even if what you are doing is investing, you still need to do the work of research, of fact finding, of monitoring the trends, of planning, of knowing when to go in, and when to go out. The richest investors in the world are working at it, anything that makes you believe otherwise will make you poor. The God ordained way of making money requires work. Continue reading

HYIPs – Beginning of the End?


While growing up, I watched a lot of comedy programs. I enjoyed them so much I can tell the stories of quite a number of them. My father had gone for his masters in the US in 1986, when he returned, he had recorded hours on end of films, comedies and musicals. I loved the comedies, I still do. I watched different strokes, gimme a break, the Jeffersons, three’s company, Sanford and Son, Bill Cosby Show, just to mention a few. I’m sure I’m bringing back some memories already
Last week, when this site was down, I gained inspiration from remembering a phrase from one of those comedies. I told a friend that this phrase was going to be the title of my next article. The site was down, I got so busy, I forgot, until yesterday when I got to hear rumours that a number of HYIPs accounts had been frozen. A friend sent me a letter with EFCC letterhead reportedly written by EFCC to Nigerian International Bank. The letter was a stop order notice for the accounts of Sefteg Investments, Nospetco, Treasureline, Wealth Solutions, Wealth Zone, Greenminds and Flagship pending investigations. Continue reading

GGR Summarized


Many people have requested to understand our two products, GGR – Generis Guaranteed Returns and FMC – Fully Managed Club. I wish to state clearly here that the first is in partnership with a fund manager, while the second is an investment club.

I have received calls and mails daily asking for better clarification about these products. This has propelled me to find a way to summarize both products, in such a way that one product does not exceed one page. It is my sincere desire that you find this punchy enough and yet detailed enough to answer all your questions. I also hope that after reading you see how big an opportunity this is, and go for it.

Congratulations to those who are in on this as already as well, don’t worry, you will be specially rewarded for starting earlier than others. There is a reward for taking the risk early. One thing I can confidently assure all our partners though, is that when others are reducing their returns, we will be reviewing ours upward. None of our packages are HYIPs, this is where you can put your life savings and sleep at night. Read on and kindly revert to me. Continue reading

Not Yet Uhuru


It has been dark on this site for almost 6 days now, and as you can see, we are not there yet. I decided to use this theme currently, so that at least we can get to read from one another and see one another. It’s a long story I will get to share soon enough. But believe me, I have been working frantically to ensure that this site comes back to live and serves it’s purpose in providing helpful information to people and organizations.I have received many calls, many emails and many text messages, from many avid readers, trying to find out exactly what went wrong, and how they could help. I’m using this medium say a big thank you to all of you. And welcome back too. Continue reading

An Indecent Proposal


Some days back a friend of mine called in from the UK and to inquire about some things. I’m no longer a stranger to these questions. Who is SEFTEG, What is Treasuline Interlink into? What do you think about Nospetco? What about Wealthsolutions or Wealthspinners, I hear you are doing something as well, what do you suggest? Talk to me my friend, not the online gist, personal advice for your friend that has a healthy risk appetite but doesn’t want to throw away his money.

What makes people think I’ll give a different advice to people online than I will to my friends? I actually won’t, I personally try to the best of my ability to be consistent with all around me, friend or acquaintance. I value a good name above riches…and you can be sure of where I learnt that from.
After I analyzed things for my friend, he decided to go with one of they HYIP’s, he wanted to earn big and quick, at the same time he wanted me to manage it for him. He proposed that I should invest the money in HYIPs on this behalf, tell him which I used and he’ll pay me a percentage of his returns for my help. That since my eyes are closer to the market, he’ll want me to help him time it. I was also very clear to him, that these schemes were time bound and that if any went burst with his money in it, he would not hold me responsible.  Continue reading

The 8th Day of the Week


Yes you read the title correctly, in some parts of the world there are 8 days in a week. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Public Holiday! In Nigeria here for example tomorrow is going to be the 5th public holiday in April alone. Isn’t that already doing more than being the 8th day of week?

I remember how excited I used to get as a regular employee about public holidays. It was another day to rest from work, it was the replacement of the midterm holidays and long holidays we used to enjoy back in school. For those of us that went to the great university, we had so many strikes and induced breaks that life right now doesn’t seem fair :) But seriously, where are we going with this current holiday? Continue reading

The Empty Tomb!


This is indeed a very long weekend, it’s easter weekend and that means we have Friday and Monday as holidays, or what my English friends will call bank holidays. It’s been impressive to see though, that many people across the world have been very active online even during this break. It’s been a good and necessary break for me, I’ve had a little time to rest, I’ve also had the opportunity of speaking at an event over this long weekend. The title of my presentation was Taking Charge in Interviews and it was very fulfilling.

Back to the season we are in – Easter! Thinking about easter brings back to my memory a lot of good things. I think about the fact that the tomb of Jesus is reputed to be one of the biggest tourist sites in Jerusalem. Thinking about that I ask the question, “What are they looking for?” Can you imagine thousands of people queuing up to see an empty grave? Someone said this is the only tourist site where people travel from far and wide and queue up from day till night to see nothing! Isn’t that profound? That’s the joy of the season, he that died did not stay dead, but rose. Continue reading
