Don’t Miss This!


“Question 2 for winning a Samsung GT-S3100 – How much MB allowance is required to access my account on gmail (i.e log in, read, compose and send a mail)” Please do not send the answers until you see question 3. Answers to be sent to seun.adelana at gmail.com”

I thought long and hard about the topic of this post. What can I title it that will make it capture the urgency of the now, and at the same time retain the timeless signature I want every article I write to bear? It suddenly struck me, that the best way to put it, is as I have, “Don’t miss this!”

What is this that you shouldn’t miss? Two things, one, don’t miss an awesome event taking place this weekend – The Avenues to Wealth Award Ceremony and family night of fun and excitement. This event is marking the second year anniversary of an exciting company called Holidays and Cash, now rebranding as Avenues to Wealth. In this event, we’ll be entertained and informed, it’s infotainment at it’s peak. There will be music, comedy, dance and enlightenment. The event is featuring one of the foremost icons and entrepreneurial brands in Nigeria – Prof Pat Utomi, Global wealth creation expert, Prof Dolf De Roos, Africa’s Ace comedian – Basket Mouth, many musical acts, dance competitions, raffle draws and so much fun. Interestingly I’m the host of this auspicious event. In order to ensure you don’t miss it, I’m willing to offer complimentary tickets to any 20 people who help me answer this short survey.

Freedom!!!


I want so say a big thank you for bearing with me in the last few days for my consistent inconsistency in updating this blog.  Travelling, being busy, or being out of internet coverage areas must never ever be good enough excuses anymore for me.  I will strive to ensure that I do not allow any of those to deter me any longer from ensuring that there are new things to read.

There have been a lot of new things, and the longer it takes to write them the more I fear that they moved down on the priority scale of what to write. I am yet to give a clear perspective and opinion about Mauritius and what I learnt on the trip. I haven’t also shared my perspective and timeless education available on the current saga of rusticated bank MDs. I haven’t commented on many things, maybe I should simply go to other forums where they have been talked about and back track here. Today however I want to answer a question someone asked me, “What does Adeolu Akinyemi want to achieve with the so many things he seems to be doing at the same time?” “Where is the convergence between, New Nigeria Club, Holidays and Cash Ltd, The Future Movement and so many other things that seem to be going on?” In this article I will share what I shared with him, and hope that some other people’s sincere questions will be answered.

Is Your Future Bright?


Once upon a time a team of young people came together to have a discussion about their future. They were in their early teens, and they seemed in a hurry to know what their future held for them. The imagined and postulated on what was possible and what was not, who will likely become what and all what not. While they rambled and rumbled, an elderly woman passed by and overheard their discussions and arguments about the future.

The old woman slowed down until they noticed her and kept quiet. With a shrill voice slightly more than a wisper, she looked one of them in the eye, and asked them a question that got them all puzzled, “Is your future bright?” Not knowing whether to answer for himself, answer for everybody or not answer at all, the silence gradually grew to wispers and and sign language. Haven gotten them where she wanted them to be, she went ahead to ask them which of them was willing to look into her crystal ball to see his/her future. The reaction that ensued reminds me of about four years ago, when I was presented with a similar opportunity in Poland, questions within a wide range fly around in your head, let’s not go there. After a while, they joked and heckled and they brazed up and decided to take a peek into their futures. 

The Old woman brought out a crystal ball, but first asked them a few questions. “What do you want to become?”, “What is your dream?”, “What have you done about your dream?”, “What do you plan to do?” After they answered the questions, he showed them the crystal ball, and explained to them what she could see.

Making Money in 2009


The wake of 2009 leaves the avid investor with some not so shocking realities. Not so shocking because the highs of shocks of 2008 have left some dead, and the ones that are alive have either given up or are still looking for what to do. Some Nigerian investors have committed suicide while some oil barons are currently in mental hospital. In case you are however new to all these and why, then let me do a little education for you.

I know some people that as at this time last year, could value their portfolio in the NSE for example at N200 million. The same stocks valued now are averagely at N50 million. Technically, peoples money currently occupy about 25% of their initial investments. I have also heard of veteran oil magnates and also novices, who the downtrend in the stock market led into oil and gas sales. Due to the sudden bottoming out of oil prices, I have heard of people with debts they may not be able to pay. I gathered as well that the exposure of the banking sector in all these is approaching digits that 10yr olds might call uncountable.

The Stock market has left people with the aftertaste of the proverbial issue that farts in one’s mouth and puts salt in it. You can’t lick the fart and you can spit out the salt. {Oro naa so si ni lenu, o tun buyo si, iso niyi, ko se pon la, iyo niyi ko se tu danu}. Or how do you explain the fact that you put 1 million somewhere and now you have N250,000 there? You’ll be reluctant to sell, hoping it will go up, at the same time you’ll see many opportunities you should use money for, it’s a really confusing state for many. The oil market experienced the bull for a while, then began to bottom out as well. With the headlines making the dailies about real estate, it seems that the crash of that sector from a mortgage point of view is threatened. The exchange rate between the Naira and the dollar is also currently hinging on market forces, electronics and imported product stores have started pricing up, accomodation costs are on the increase. In this midst of this yam pepper scatter scatter {isu ata yana yana}, how can people make money in 2009? If you want to know, then you might be interested. Continue reading
