Volume 102
Brought to you by
Good morning ☀️
Let me start this newsletter with something you already know: every move and decision we make with money is geared toward understanding at least three goals: how to make money, how to spend money, and how to grow money.
To be honest, we’re all trying our best here. After all, financial skill is a muscle to build for your entire life. But sometimes, you meet someone, and you can’t help but think, “Yes, this person might be on to something.”
That’s what I thought while reading an early draft of this week’s Nairalife.
The subject had some teething challenges with making [decent] money early in her career. But once she settled into a routine of an income that worked, she focused on the next thing: growing her wealth. She’s learned one or two things while at it and was kind enough to share them.
In this letter:
- #NairaLife: The Investment Analyst on Track to Grow Her Liquid Assets to ₦100m in Three Years
- Love Currency:The Married Civil Servant Learning to Be Romantic on a ₦78k Salary in Lagos
- I Catfished My Dad and Made Him Send Me Money for Weeks
- QUIZ: Are You a Spender or a Saver?
- Where The Money At?!

This 30-year-old has found a steady career rhythm but feels like she lost precious years trying different paths, hoping one would stick.

The Married Civil Servant Learning to Be Romantic on a ₦78k Salary in Lagos
When Moses* met Happiness* in 2013, she didn’t mind that he was unemployed and homeless. She’s still understanding now that his ₦78k salary barely provides for their three children. But Moses feels he isn’t doing enough and plans to fix that by dialling up the romance.
He shares all the details on #LoveCurrency.

I Catfished My Dad and Made Him Send Me Money for Weeks
There are different ways to trick your parents into giving you money, and for Chidi*, it turns out catfishing is one of them.
The 23-year-old talks about discovering his dad’s womanising side and why pretending to be a woman was the perfect punishment for his dad’s actions.
QUIZ: Are You a Spender or a Saver?
We only want to know one thing: are you pretty good with money?
