What Kind of Online Businesses Can You Launch with your prospective ideas?


Starting an online business can be one of the most exciting experiences of your life. It can also be the most confusing if you’re not sure what kind of business you’d like to have. There’s a popular saying that says, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.”
That means you need to make sure that your online income doesn’t all come from just one source. A way that you can diversify that source is to start selling info products. You can create an information product in as little as a day, depending on what the product is.

One of the best info products to sell is to write and sell your own eBook. You need to write an eBook on a topic that people are searching for information about. The topic can be some

Why Being An Entrepreneur Is Much Better Than a J-O-B



There are several reasons why being an entrepreneur is much better than a J-O-B. With the responsibility of running your own business, you also have the freedom to pursue the most financially and personally rewarding avenues.

Instead of sitting behind a desk and being told what you have to achieve for the day or for the year, you’re free to set your own goals and objectives. No more time spent working on projects that don’t fulfill you.

When you’re an entrepreneur, you get to set the goals, you get to choose the direction your business takes and which projects will be the best fit for your endeavor. Because you will be the one to know your company best, achieving your goals will not only feel financially rewarding but will also be personally rewarding as well.

In addition to getting to decide the direction your business heads, you’ll also be cutting down on the time it takes to get back and forth to work. For many people, their daily commute represents time that could better be spent on other

How to Say Goodbye to your JOB and Be Your Own Boss From Now On

Leaving behind a job you’ve become accustomed to is never easy and there are many reasons that people say goodbye to a job. Some leave a job because they’ve outgrown the work and are no longer challenged mentally.

Others leave because of office politics or poor pay despite all their hard work. A few leave a job because they’ve decided that it’s time to be their own boss. Maybe that’s you and you’re planning a new and exciting future away from the same old grind but you’re not quite sure how to exit gracefully.

Never burn bridges. Though it’s tempting to finally get everything you’ve been holding in off your chest, you never know when you might need that former boss as a reference or as a networking opportunity, so make sure that you leave gracefully.

Give a two-week notice and clear everything out of your to-do box to make the transition easier for the next person who will fill your shoes. Gather all of the contact information

10 THINGS NO ONE WILL TELL YOU ABOUT BEING A SELF-EMPLOYED/AN ENTREPRENEUR.

  1. LESS RESPECT: - People often think you are not serious by leaving CERTAINTY for UNCERTAINTY whenever you leave your paid Job to start a small scale business. Some will even assume you are not really doing anything because you are not as busy or dedicated as people who work in a paid employment.
  2. FAILURE IS MOSTLY CONSTANT: - In every entrepreneurial journey, there is the failure fear factor inherent in being on your own. The decision to carry out certain task is solely on the entrepreneur therefore it sometimes does not work out as planned for some start-ups.
  3. VACATION IS NOT CERTAIN: - Until your business is fully stabilized, there might not be a single vacation throughout the year. Working round the clock is a common trait of all entrepreneurs.
  4. THE HIGHER YOU GO THE TOUGHER IT BECOMES: - The longer the period you stay in working for yourself the tougher it becomes to go back to paid employment. Since I left GtBank in 2009, I have found it harder

BANK CHARGES: A FRAUD OR A FEE?


I would like to crave the readers’ indulgence to permit me express my opinion in the simplest language as a layman who does not understand the workings, laws and rules of the financial institutions. Having had a brief stint as a marketer in one of the new generation bank I can confidently analyze the drama associated with customer’s complaints whenever issues of spurious charges and illegal deductions rears its ugly head while in the employment of the bank. As a staff of the bank in those ‘BANK TARGET’ era of banking operations, not many of us really understand the pain and emotional difficulties experienced by bank’s customers whenever they complain of deductions as miserly as N100, but five years down the lane I was out of that corridor of the financial institutions and I know where the shoe really pinches. I can tell the values of peanuts and crumbs as an entrepreneur, I know what it cost to gather resources, to build funds in your bank account and ultimately smile home at the end of every project.

Consequently, there are some bad times for entrepreneurs when N100 will make a difference and save an ugly situation such as dishonoring a cheque as a result of deductions never envisaged. I have witnessed many a times customers closure of their bank account because some charges the bank could not explain were carried out on the aggrieved customer’s account. Whether the bank apologizes or return the funds back to the account will still not hold back the ill feelings associated with these manipulations by the banks. My wife had an experience with her bank sometime on a Saturday in April 2014, she attempted to withdrew money from FCMB ATM Akute Ogun State,and

CAN-KERWORMS: ORITSEJAFOR CAN OF WORM


“Seven Deadly Sins
Wealth without work
Pleasure without conscience
Science without humanity
Knowledge without character
Politics without principle
Commerce without morality
Worship without sacrifice.”—Mahatma Ghandhi.
Much has been said about the CAN President in the person of Ayo Oritsejafor, he (Ayo) ought to know by now that the whole story about the botched arm deal is a bad omen to his priesthood. How else in this world would it have been imagined if the Pope of the Catholic Church is involved in illegal or black market purchase of Arms and Ammunitions for the Italian Government? It is unholy, ungodly and sacrilegious.
What I seems not to fathom of the whole saga is the fact that the Nigerian Government has evasively hidden the identities of the supposedly two officials alongside the Israeli ,Eyal Mesiaka caught with $9.3million on board the Private jet of the CAN President in South-Africa. Were the government officials involved in the failed illegal arms deal on government payroll or could it be they were only hired as consultants for the sting operation to procure arms for the Government or Christian Association of Nigeria?

When will the government asked the church to formally update and modify its memorandum and articles of association to a profit oriented entity since Oritsejafor has a corporate organization with which he leased the private jet in question?
