One truth about your Degree

Universities/Polytechnics degrees were not created to guarantee you a job.Having a degree never has, and never will, guarantee you a job.
Do you have a degree? More importantly, did you learn anything while pursuing the degree?
Then use it to solve the problems around you and you automatically have a job.
That sure didn't sound like rocket science, or did it?

Financial Tip from the Bus stop - 1

Image
I am privileged to serve with an organization that provides free transportation for its staff to and from their office locations. The staff bus that is attached to my own location goes past my own bus stop by 6:00 am every working day (Monday - Saturday) to pick a colleague living some kilometers away from me after which it follows the same route back to pick me and others ( whose bus stop is few poles away from mine) at 6:20 am. On 16th December 2016, something happened.I got to my bus stop 6:11 am and started waiting for the bus to arrive.

After that small incident, I relaxed and continu...

I also want to be clear on it that some life events could be so hard that it could wipe off all we have ever tried to gather. But my point is this, it is better to have an initial financial backup to confront the attack first. If there comes any reason why further financial resources that are above your capacity will be required, you can then source for help from other sources like friends and family, associations, etc (But by then, it would have been clear to all that you didn’t go down without a fight).  And there are proven principles that are guaranteed to guide just anyone who cares to build a financial backup.

DEALING WITH DEBT - 3 (REASONS WHY PEOPLE GET INTO DEBT).

Image
Many people think that once you are in debt, you are a bad manager of financial resources, but I beg to differ, because that is not true and will never be true. We need to understand this fact when dealing with debt as an issue. Research has shown that there are reasons why people find themselves in debt for no fault of theirs, and I will be dealing with one of them, which will be my second category of the reasons why people get into debt(you can get the previous ' dealing with debt' articles here ). So here it is:  2.)  NATURAL REASONS : They can also be termed to be legitimate reasons. In life, there are situations everyone prays never to encounter, they come like tsunamis or earthquakes and ruthlessly deal with us and our finances without looking back. Take for example; a.) Health challenges: By this, I do not mean slight headaches, stomach upsets, malaria and typhoid fever that everyone in my country knows how to treat without even visiting a specialist (which is ...
