Family planning
My Dad used to say this all time - A man whose wife is pregnant has good 9 months to prepare, so also is the pregnant woman in question. They should even plan for the worse and only seek help when they can’t meet up.
Some problems in our lives don’t just pop up, 12 months ago, we knew we would pay rents... So its not not an emergency...
Let’s plan our lives and live within our means. Save more and spend less, some women buy food for their children every morning before going to school, do you know it’s cheaper to cook at home? Some buy every aso ebi and also buy shoe and bag to match, Some people who don’t earn much, but have DSTV at home, go for GOTV and upgrade when your income upgrades. It’s still the same CNN.
Put your kids in schools you can afford (expensive schools doesn’t guarantee good results) Just ensure they attend a good affordable school. Rent apartments you can pay for conveniently, don’t live in a house you struggle to pay yearly.
Eat healthy meals and protect your family from mosquitoes to avoid going to the hospital always. Take advantage of food and fruits in season, its cheaper and you can be creative to create amazing meals. Don’t copy Mama Emeka’s style of cooking soup, she earns well and her husband is a ‘big man’
Don’t follow trends, wear clean well ironed clothes and keep your hair neat. You would still slay.
Keep your circle small, keep only friends that have sense!
Planning is key, if we plan properly we might not need to ask anyone for anything.
Above all things, have the fear of God, have integrity, don’t be lazy and be prayerful
God bless us all and provide all our needs
