Plot twist: There is no top. Just make lots of money and diversify your income.
Unpopular opinion: you can’t remote work or freelance your way to the top.

I’ve actually never seen anyone ask Tunde “why only boys?”
Tunde Onakoya doesn’t have 2 heads o. You don’t even have to do anything that large scale. Pick one or 2 boys in your community or around you to mentor but No, whine and complain.

Air Peace forever 🤣🙌
As at last week, the cheapest flight ticket to Lagos was £1550
I checked again last night and I'm seeing £868
The ONLY logical explanation here is the AIR PEACE ticket price.
Virgin and BA have been overcharging us for ages
One competition, they slashed their prices. WICKED 🤡😡

People are making it about Nigerians but it is not. Nigerians just happen to be the majority that stood up to advocate for both speaking and non speaking English folks outside PG’s “circumference”

Anxiety is really bad. If you find yourself always anxious especially about work, save some money and upskill yourself then try to take calculated risks and move. Your life and happiness is precious. Fight for your peace in your one precious life.

Then for those that are saying it’s “majorly boys” affected based on Tunde’s primary focus area… it means you understand the concept of “majority” and “affected” but when it comes to girls/women that genius thinking evaporates instantly.
I’ve actually never seen anyone ask Tunde “why only boys?”

This Fintech thing is going to be a struggle at this rate. Nigeria is supposed to be the giant of Africa but with leaders that lack foresight, vision, or adequate intelligence its going to be a huge struggle.

So 14 days ago I was prepped for a major surgery. I had really negative thoughts that things won’t go well or I wont make it. God made everything perfect beyond my imagination. The only thing I’ve been able to do is Twitter and Spaces since I’ve been in bed 95% of the time

Dear younger ones, don't be like us. Take more risks. Apply for that role/opportunity! Whether u qualify or not. Whether the odds are in ur favor or not. Just make sure you've demonstrated that you can learn fast & you're responsible. Best way to do that is to work on side stuff!

Inspired by my Peer-Mentor 😉. Q1 was really intense for me. Love it though.
- Invested in 10 companies in Q1 2021 alone
- Led & Supported in Pre-screens/Memos/Due Diligence/Investment Decisions
- Startups based/operating in SSA & MENA
- via Funds/Syndicates/Direct Deals
Started my VC journey in August this year. Knew nothing about the space but I was passionate about it! 3 Months later I have;
- invested in 3 African companies
- written an investor memo
- done Due diligence
And before the year runs out I’ll invest in 2 more companies ☺️

we unconsciously give other people

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

I’ve shared my extended thoughts with Ben privately but also wanted to touch on this openly.
@just_norm
@thepeerHQ
@TechCabal
Here is one hypothesis: “The average monthly burn of a seed-stage startup is $200,000 but applying the Africa discount, we expect it to be $60-100,000. So, in the 21 months since Thepeer’s last raise, they could have spent their $2.1 million or very close.”
