Before You Listen, Check Their Life First

Before taking advice from others, make sure it is actually working for them.

If the drug is working, won't the person be the first to take it?* *It is not every advice from elders you will take because even fools grow old.* *In 2021, a friend of my sister told me to come and invest in transport business, he said I should buy a big truck and he is sure I was going to make my money back because he will monitor the movement of the truck and the driver that drives it, I love the idea and told him I need to think about it before I make a decision.* *A week later, while discussing with my sister, she told me how the man bought two keke napep, and the people he gave it to stopped delivering money to him, and he could not do anything about it. I was like damn! The same person who fumbled that he would take good care of my truck can't even protect his own asset; how will he now protect mine? My decision was clear right at that moment, and my answer was a No to the business.*  [source](https://pixabay.com/illustrations/ai-generated-man-boy-communication-8775628/) *After telling him I am not interested, this man told me about his own business which involves buying spoilt big generator and repairing it to sell for a higher price, and he said I could make some money from it, the only thing required from me is the capital to buy the generator, he would repair it and resell it and I will get my capital and interest.* *The way he sounded and the profit got me interested, but then again, I think about it, why does he need me to invest if he is making such a huge profit? He should be fucking rich! and be able to fund his business alone without the need for capital from others, so I was skeptical about putting a large amount of money in that, too.* *Days later, he called me to say that he got an offer to come and buy some big generators, and 1 cost 220k. He said after buying, repairing, and reselling, I would make double the amount I invested, so I gave him the capital but guess what, weeks turned to months and this man keeps telling me no buyer for the Gen and that was how I lost my 220k, just imagine I put a huge amount of money on the two businesses he told me about, that is how I would have lost all.* *Before we take advice, either life or financial advice from others, we should make sure it is working for them!*  **Just call me Burl.** *I am a professional gamer, motivational speaker and a crypto enthusiast* *Discord: burlarj* *Twitter id: burlarj1* *Telegram: burlarj* **God exists, I am a living testimony** **Giving up is not an option, every hustler has a payday** **Don't wish for it, Make it happen** **Only Love can heal a broken Heart**
