One hundred million is not a lot of money, irrespective of the currency. It’s a mindset – Can you or can you not raise it in a day?
It’s not enough to be screaming “E choke” and “God abeg”, this is the time to test your friends or alleged loyal fans and see how far they’ll go for you. Here’s a starter guide to raising the funds in another 12 hours, as the king himself has done:
Ask them directly:
It’s always easier to start on a straightforward path. Own it like a big boy and post your account number. Anybody that doesn’t contribute should fall out, they don’t deserve the greatness that you are.
Put them up for sale:
What’s their use if they can’t raise you one-tenth of a billion naira that you haven’t worked for? Just upload them on a retail website and sell them off. You could as well leave the bidding price open and see if they’re even worth that much.
Manifest it:
If you tell us that you have a hundred million naira sitting in your bank account, who would challenge you? The worst-case scenario is that the bank will tag you on social media that you are a detty liar. Or people that don’t mind their business will ask for screenshots; yet, it’s your word against theirs, isn’t it?
Ask your boss for a raise:
You know you deserve it. You’ve been working so hard all year long and at least your boss should have plans to give you a December bonus. Walk straight up into their office and tell them to transfer it to you. All hundred million of it.
Sell yourself:
It’s not enough to be preaching self worth, you can also go ahead and test it. There’s no need to become a thief or a gold digger when you have buyers ready to purchase you. Put yourself up and watch your value come to reality in your bank account.
Nothing is impossible and a hundred million is just the beginning of greater things to come. Just believe.
