HOW TO CONCENTRATE ON VALUE OUTSIDE OF CASH- MY LIFE EXPERIMENT SINCE 2017

 

For the past 7 years, since August 2017, I completely changed my mindset to (having) cash. I have sought to live cashless in an urban area. I must confess that this was as a direct result of Rev 13 and my Endtime prophetic calling. 

My personal finance blogging and my intention to build a Fintech company/be financially successful in the eyes of the world went in the opposite direction. 

While I have not fully gotten a grasp on the methods in which I have employed to achieve this mental paradigm change, I am slowly getting there. Of course, almost everyone in my life thinks that I am crazy and it has not been easy on my mental health, necessitating the writing of my upcoming book* on helping people with depression, anxiety and loneliness. We must continue to help people, no matter what!
[Note: All my entrepreneurial endeavors always stem from personal problems or pain points or passion, that I hope can be of help to one other person who might just have the same problem as me.]

PRACTICAL MEASURES TO LIVE SIMPLE AND SURVIVE THE GREAT TRIBULATION AHEAD

Using the same strategy I have used since I was born in Lagos more than 30 years ago, God has directed me to tell you to cut your living expenses down to the barest minimum, so that you may have excess, and hopefully, you will be willing to share some of that excess with those in poverty as we enter the Great Tribulation.

I will be using my life example, living in Nigeria and overseas. 

The underlying theme is this- LIVE SIMPLE, CUT DOWN ON COMFORT TOTALLY!!! I cannot stress that enough. The Great Tribulation is not like any period this earth has ever witnessed. Brace up. It begins now!

1. HOUSING: Your rent should not be more than 1 month's salary/income, if in Nigeria. In places like the UK, your rent or mortgage should not be more than your weekly salary. If you have to start living with people in a shared apartment arrangement, pls do so. If you do not have a job, you must not be paying rent at all. If the city is too expensive, go back to your village. If you pay the mortgage, get a tenant, including any of your biological children staying with you, and use the rent to offset your monthly bill.

I AM BACK TO BLOGGING FULL TIME...BUT WITH A NEW VISION!

I am back full-time!

I am sure some will wonder where I went to in the first place (to be back). I quit active blogging exactly two years ago.

It has also been two (2) years now since the folding up of Credicoins Ltd- the FINTECH start-up I co-founded. I talked about how suicidal I felt at failing back then. And I practically gave up blogging personal finance or pursuing entrepreneurship- even when some family, friends and former shareholders tried to encourage us to restart.

WHAT I HAVE BEEN UP TO
Since that time, a lot has happened...(and I will be making posts on all these over the next few weeks).

HASHGRAPH, NOT BLOCKCHAIN, DETERMINES THE FUTURE OF MONEY

Pretty excited about what I just discovered about the Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)- the technology underlying cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, etc.

I got this from Mike Maloney's Hidden Secrets of Money episode 8 (I have mentioned this series before)- a documentary about his journey understanding (and investing) in the Cryptocurrency Revolution.

I have also talked about Blockchain technology and -the commonest application built upon the open source code- Cryptocurrencies, of which we have over 100 now.

However, I was disillusioned by the fact that instead of Bitcoin replacing Fiat currencies, it only became a speculative tool, spurning lots of ''altcoins'' such as Ethereum, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Earthcoin, Fastcoin, etc. This is mostly because of the limitations and weakness of its Proof-of-Work consensus model, chief of which is difficulty in scaling it. We now have direct (hard fork) splits such as Bitcoin cash and Bitcoin gold, in a bid to make up for the slowness of transactions.
