The 80/20 rule: Apply it to your finances and change your life, by Olamide Oseni.

A couple of hundred years back, an Italian economist by the name of Vilfredo Pareto discovered something really really interesting that was going to change how we understand the world. He discovered that he could measure the relationship between cause and effect precisely in mathematical terms (80/20). I know that probably sounds a bit mystifying and confusing, it was for me too, so to break it down further what he discovered was that 80% of results come from 20% of efforts.

You see a well packaged,photographed product on the social media and love it, let the same product be sold by a guy down the street i...

Borrowing from Peter to pay Paul is literally one of the oldest fraud tricks in the book, and it’s alarming that people still fall prey to schemes such as this especially in the wake of one such dubious schemes that has invested participants looming on the precipice of disaster. These schemes are no new trend in the Nigerian environment but it’s still alarming how people fall for them, it would have been funny if it wasn’t a matter of such serious concern, space a couple of years between these things and the story remains the same, people rush, invest their money and inevitably a sizeable number of them got swindled. The term ‘ponzi’ can be traced back to US Italian immigrant, Carlo Charles Ponzi who pulled off one of the biggest investment scams in history that had people losing as much as millions of dollars, and this was as far back as the 1920’s.
