They don’t want to “sow<br />
today” and “reap<br />
tomorrow”, instead they’re<br />
looking for the scheme that<br />
will make them an<br />
overnight so-called “big<br />
boy”, and such a mentality<br />
will not solve the<br />
unemployment/economic<br />
crisis hitting our nation.<br />
What Nigeria needs at this<br />
time is a generation of<br />
young people who are<br />
willing to put their hands to<br />
the plough and work,<br />
knowing full well that they<br />
may not be instantly<br />
gratified. Every business<br />
takes work and time in<br />
order to become successful<br />
and just like the examples I<br />
have stated above such as<br />
McDonalds, Facebook ,<br />
Virgin and Tesco, the youth<br />
of Nigeria can take solace in<br />
the knowledge that hard<br />
work definitely pays off in<br />
the end.<br />
The youth should<br />
stop following the<br />
Jones’s by living<br />
beyond their means<br />
in an attempt to<br />
keep up with their<br />
peers. They don’t<br />
have to buy the<br />
latest phone or<br />
drive the latest car,<br />
but rather they<br />
should learn to<br />
invest and re-invest<br />
their <strong>money</strong> until<br />
they get to a place<br />
(economically)<br />
where they can buy<br />
those things<br />
without flinching.<br />
