Financial Advice To My Younger Self.
Hello, everyone.
I welcome you to my blog. As grown-ups we have been exposed to a lot of things and wished we had had someone advise us or give us a hint about all of it when we were younger so that we could have prepared ourselves and braced for impact, but there was no forewarning, and life took us unawares, thereby sweeping us off our feet. We could barely stand what life threw at us; it took a lot of staggering and strength to be able to withstand it for some, while for some it pushed them down completely, and they are still struggling to get back to their feet.
Life would have been a lot easier if, as kids, we had people give us real advice on both how to act right and not go against any moral codes and also how to build finances at a younger age. The mistake those before us made was thinking one needed to come of age or get to a certain age before they attain financial stability or talk about finances, so all of their advice and strength was channelled towards making sure we don't go rogue or get involved in immoral things, but now wanting to attain financial stages has caused a lot of youths and young people my age to go rogue, which could have been avoided if financial advice had been offered to us when we were younger. If only the importance of finances had been emphasised to us when we were younger, maybe a lot of things happening today wouldn't be happening.
A lot of recent happenings and young people going rogue today could have been avoided if those older than us when we were younger did not only focus on building and working on our morals; if only some of the energy was channelled towards teaching us the importance of finances and why we should take them seriously. But instead, they only focused on morals, and now we are grown-ups, and we have no choice other than going against those morals to help build our financial life.
If I were to talk to my younger self or advise my younger self after everything I have seen, I would definitely make an emphasis on finances and how he should take his finances seriously. My country does not really value education; with all I have seen, I might even advise him to make his finances a priority instead of education because in the end there is no reward for making education a priority, but there is a huge reward for making your finances a priority.

Woah, this is another dive in this theme. Finance is the bedrock of success. I remember how I used to save every dime given to me by my uncles, cousins, and Aunts. I will save everything and sometimes, I will open up my piggy bank and ask my mum to use the money and buy me a dress. Voom, she will divert the money to another thing and will start cooking stories for me. Me too won't give her peace until she buys something for me and tells me, 'I have used your money to buy this shoe or cloth. ' I will happily be proud for that whole day. Singing it round the house and using it against my siblings. Haa, that time eheee.
Mothers and diverting the money given to them to keep 😂.
I tell you ,no be small thing 😒 🙄 🤣
