Hello babe. I've been mostly absent from Hive these last few weeks (struggling with so much screen time). But I'm (over)due for a marathon update post and on here thinking about who I miss. I miss you. So I'm here, reading your awesome, heart breaking post. Far out that sounds tough.
Thank you for sharing with us about what's happening with money in Nigeria. It keeps things in perspective for me in this rich first-world country. Yes, everywhere we have problems but some problems are truly far bigger and far more challenging than than elsewhere.
I want you to know that it's totally normal when we are really stressed to oscillate between ignoring (nervous system "freeze") and rapidly taking action to try and fix the problem. I'm glad you're deliberately learning about money and aiming to become financially literate. You're a clever woman. I have no doubt that you'll know more about how to build wealth (in an ethical way) better than most people, even if you have to get creative with the totally messed up system your nation is currently working with.
You can do this. You'll learn. You'll take advantage of ethical opportunities. And you'll probably be teaching others what you've learned soon enough, Miss!
Sending you !LUV love love and a !HUG hug hug. xxx
