              Most people have a job, and that means they have to show up to work every day. In exchange for doing this, they get paid, either by the hour or with a monthly salary. And while many people consider this a necessary part of life, I’m here to tell you it’s not.   Here’s why.   When you trade your time for money, you limit the amount of money you can earn. And that’s true no matter how much money you make. The key to earning passive income is to trade less of your time for more money. Let me give you a brief example. (We’ll talk more about this later on this blog post.)   Just imagine that you want to earn that $84,000 a year; you would have to work 3,640 hours a year. (People who work a 40-hour week “only” work 2,080 hours a year.)  And all those extra hours won’t contribute to a happier life, either. Sure, you would be able to pay the bills easier and maybe send your family off on a nice vacation (You won’t be able to go—remember you’re tied to a desk 70 hours a week.)   B

He took his Malaria Awareness campaign to South Pole, Antarctica. In a recent interview gra nted to BBC Pidgin journalist, he dropped a shocking revelation that his wife Regina Daniel knows that he could marry another wife.                                        Ned Nwoko & Regina "I married Regina Daniels within weeks" That's how I married other wives. "I don't believe in dating anybody to marry a lady when you marry them you can fall in love from within the marriage. Like my time in the 60's they were not dating, there were arranged marriage, most girls were expected to be virgins when getting married. Before I met Regina I don't know about her, I don't watch movies, I never watch movies. I met her the first time when

#Humanity Lee Redmond holds the Guinness World Record for the longest fingernails ever on a woman, but they were ripped from her hands in a horrific accident. Lee Redmond hasn't cut her fingernails since 1979. She dips them in warm olive oil every day and uses a bottle after bottle of strengthening and polish to keep them in top condition. At their longest, her nails on both hands measured a staggering 8.65m in total - earning her the Guinness World Record for the longest fingernails on a pair of hands (female). She said: "It was just a challenge to myself to see how far they would go before they started twisting out of shape. "I kept setting dates and dates that I was going to cut them and I just couldn't do it. "It's strange how they become part of you. "I think my fingernails defined me to a lot of people, I was known as the fingernail lady but to me, I would have to explain to them there really is more to me." She told a witness at the scenes th

                            # Humanity A story of a young boy who got married to a 22 years old girl has set the internet on fire. A teenage boy, Samuel Abraham Onuoha, a 15-year-old boy has married his lover, 22-year-old Anurika John in Abia state. It was a dramatic moment when the wedding ceremony was held on Sunday 26 April 2020 in Amaiyi Igbere in Bende L.G.A of Abia State. Samuel is the only son of his late father Mr Abraham Onuoha, who died in 2010. According to the mother, Mrs Peace Abraham, Samuel was born in 2005 after many years of marriage without a child.

Okoro Ogbu of the Assemblies of God Church, who officiated the wedding ceremony, advised the couple not to be amazed by the way of the marriage especially the age in which Samuel has decided to get married. My question is if age does no

#Humanity A bright doctor from the West African country of Nigeria Babafemi Taiwo is leading part of a major study on antiviral drug Remdesivir appearing to treat COVID-19, the potentially deadly respiratory disease caused by the coronavirus, which has killed more than 200,000 people around the world. CNN interviewed Dr Taiwo, whose name suggests he is a twin from the southwestern part of Nigeria, to discuss the promising results. Remdesivir, the antiviral drug made by Gilead Sciences, appears to help coronavirus patients recover more quickly than no treatment at all, but it does not significantly reduce death, according to preliminary data from the National “For the first time we have a large, well-conducted trial” showing a treatment helps, he said. “This is not a miracle drug … but it’s definitely better than anything we have.” Fauci said the partial results showed that the drug had “a clear-cut significant positive effect,” shortening the time to hospital disch

#Humanity Life in China is now returning to normalcy since the outbreak of Coronavirus.  With some schools slowly reopening after the long hiatus, one school in the city of Hangzhou have enforced social distancing by letting students wear DIY hats with 3-foot-long horizontal plumes. Duke University professor, Eileen Chengyin Chow shared photos showing first graders at the Yangzheng Elementary School sitting in a classroom with desks arranged in single rows.  In the pictures, the students were also pictured wearing face masks and colourful headgear with extended plumes made out of cardboard and, in one case, balloons. According to Chinese outlet, The Paper, students at the school are allowed to wear the headgear to remind them to keep their distance from each other.  This comes a day after the Hubei province health commission announced that Wuhan, the city at the centre of China’s coronavirus outbreak, has no more hospitalized patients after the l

#Business The recent outbreak of coronavirus has made a good number of people to start selling hand sanitizers and making cool money.

A mum has gone viral on social media after explaining why her teenage son was sent home from school rather early on Wednesday morning.

While others have taken more drastic measures and have been cautiously  bulk buying toilet roll,  soap, and food in case they have to self-isolate, causing shops to run out of stock. But one teenage boy decided to seize this as an opportunity to make a little extra money so he could buy some snacks. Yes, really.

#Lifestyle Jenny Saccoccia, from Ontario, Canada says her Great Dane Thunder towers over her so much he's often mistaken for a horse - but he's a gentle giant and even afraid of smaller dogs. According to her, this 7 feet tall is constantly mistaken for a horse by her pooch. This is what  Jenny Saccoccia says about her dog. "They think I'm walking a horse. "Even the vet is always talking about Thunder because they can’t believe how big he is." Despite his size, Jenny says he's a gentle giant who is adored by children and smaller dogs alike.

#Business Hey! Have you ever taken a great deal of time to carefully study the cash flow quadrant before? If you ever done that, you will discover that only 5 percent of people who comprises of business owners and entrepreneurs belong to the third and the fourth quadrant. Research has shown that 95 percent of the wealth is being controlled by 5 percent of these businessmen, who had worked so hard, took a calculated risk, and invested heavily in viable ventures or businesses. So, what is the implication of this assertion? It simply means that the people that enjoy the large chunk of 95 percent of wealth around the globe are the business owners and investors. Invariably, 95 percent of employees who work for the business owners only take 5 percent of the wealth. This is so ridiculous. Having said this, you need not a pundit to tell you that starting up your own business pays off. The business owners and entrepreneurs rake in tremendous passive income for the
