I doubted Npower program the first time it was announced for graduates. I was doing NYSC in Enugu that year 2015/2016. I never believed it was real and didnt apply. Surprisingly, it was real and some of my friends that applied were part of the first set. I lost the opportunity. It was after 2 years that the next set were invited to apply. You'll imagine how fast I applied and fortunately, I got shortlisted.
I learn to always have an open mind to all opportunities and give them a try. Who knows the one that would be real.
Yeah, that Npower program. I heard about it, tried applying but couldn't get through because of age. I was even advised to go get affidavit but no I can't do such.
It's good to always have open mind and take advantage of every opportunity that comes our way, although it's not always easy.

Money I was saving for my rent. It was on a Friday and he promised to refund it by Monday after business over the weekend which he didn't till date.
The painful part was that his closest pals refused to help out and I did out of trust cos he was a colleague's friend.

That time if I ask him for it, his reply was always I will pay when I have the money
I've realized that he has made up his mind not to refund the money because of his actions and replies. I have left him to fate but this taught me not to trust blindly again and if I have to lend money to someone, it has to be the amount I can easily let go incase they decide not to pay back again.
@fashtioluwa @caleb-marvel come and share yours.

I no go gree o if na me. Ehnn for where. You will pay that money unless we would enter one trouser
He will pay in one way or the other. Nemesis will catch up with him
Omo, I’m the nemesis here o. And I’ll catch up with him really good and fast 😎
Lol, leave nemesis to do it's work abeg oo 🤣
My dear, that's human for you. Such happened to me to the extent that the guy started hiding when he sees me. But I just gat to let go because I was feed up of please I will pay you 😭😭.
So I have discided that if any person ask me to lend him or her money, I will check me self very well, then tell the person that I will be helping him with any amount of my choice, not to pay back, but just helping. Because I can't start calling you for what I know that you are supposed to be the person calling me.
I don't borrow, if I have I give, if I don't have, I don't give. And not every body I give.
Thanks for your invitation @luchyl
It's really bad how people behave like that because of money.
Exactly what I do. I always try to manage the much I have so I won't be tempted to go borrowing.
I appreciate your reply.
