You need to read this financial masterpiece (By Oyedamola Taiwo) For F&K Savings


In this masterpiece, Oyedamola Taiwo emphasizes the importance of investment.
Save but take it a step further.
The traditional believe about thrift spending involves continuous separation of a specified amount of money to a “no spending zone”. This is backed up with the assurance of a wealthy-happy ending. But the question I ask is, “why do we have to wait till the end to be wealthy, why can’t I have money today and also in the future has it tends towards the end”.  I have watched people linger in the cycle of self denial to gather funds to spend on something big and to resume self denial for the next big achievement. For how long in a life time will the time lag of waiting earn you a place among the wealthy? A young person starting out to take responsibilities adhering strictly to the saving culture will have to indeed wait for the wealthy happy ending. I am not in any way discrediting saving, I just wish to introduce an uncommon twist to discourse.
In the array of paths to wealth, being abstemious in spending is a crucial process for its accomplishment. However, it is a necessary but not sufficient condition. The crux lies in the usage of the gathered funds. If you belong to the league of persons that exhaust their saving on purchase of items that will depreciate to zero economic value in no-time, then, you are bound for the self denial cycle. Casting all your lots into purchasing the latest mobile technology brand for aesthetic purpose, fashion apparel, cars even house rent cannot make you wealthy any time soon; except those items, in a way, contribute to your income.  Spending your savings solely on items that depreciated or require maintenance without any form of addition to your income status will only take you to a steady exponential growth in self denial. You will have to give up more and more to maintain a specific standard of living instead of growing wealth. 
The way out of this heinous cycle that leads nowhere good? Well, I recommend investment. Why? The right investment guarantees you a continuous flow of income higher than your initial capital. Your initial capital is the money you give to initiate the investment deal. When you save, all you get back is your money. Instead of leaving your money redundant to spend later, putting it in an investment will get you more money while your initial input remains intact. Then, you can afford all the luxury you desire without the fear of the loop of self denial. Risks are attached to investments but engaging the appropriate professionals will save you a lot of stress( Visit fandksavings.com.ng) to Know More). Check the profile of the wealthy people around you, they didn’t arrive here by saving religiously, rather, they put their money into ventures that will grow and make them more money. Saving is not enough!

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 are probably as shocked about this and if you are honest a bit doubting too. What this means for you is that: - 80% of the money you make comes from 20% of the time and effort you put in. - 80% of your products are the ones bringing in 20% of the money you make. - 80% of your customers bring in 20% of your income. And it also applies to everyday life too: - 80% of the world's wealth is in the hands of around 20% of the world's population. You probably wear 20% of your clothes 80% of the ...

How to detect ponzi schemes, a piece by Olamide Oseni

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. Following the pattern laid back by the progenitor of such scams, Ponzi/pyramid schemes promise an unusually high returns...
