10 Reasons Why You Must Get Rich.. Cont

4. The Number of People You Will be Employing
As started earlier, the richer you become, the more you would be employing (if you are an entrepreneur), and in this way, you would be helping the economy of whichever country you are citizen of. You would also be a blessing to a lot of families, because you would be the reason they have food on their tables, and their kids can go to school.
3. The Number of People You Will Help With Your Goods or Services
Also, think of the number of people you would help with your goods or services. Think about all the people Adenuga helps with his GLO Telecommunications company. They can connect with friends and family, and can surf the Internet because of that man's ambition.
2. Innovation
Yea, the scientists and the geeks are the ones that come up with world changing innovations like the Radio and the Telephone and the likes, but who do you think funds them? Yea, the rich fund their research centers. They need money for all those equipment and chemicals in their labs. So, you should never downplay money again. Mark Zuckerberg was a genius, but he needed funds from his friend, Eduardo Saverin to keep his dream alive. Then in the later years, he got $500,000 seed fund from venture capitalist, Peter Thiel to take Facebook to the next level. Think about the role 'the rich' played in bringing Facebook to life, which hundreds of millions of people the world over now enjoy.
1. Boost in Self Esteem
And this is another great reason to get rich. Having money...having value in the community gives you a sense of importance, and a reason to be here on Earth.
So my friend, go out there and dream, plan and work your butt off to become rich. As Adekunle Gold said in his song (Pickup), 'Otedola o lori meji.' Meaning, Forte Oil boss, Femi Otedola doesn't have two heads. If he can become rich, you also can become rich.

Church members chase pastor from church for impregnating maid

There was commotion on Sunday at the United Methodist Church, Mafoluku, in the Oshodi area of Lagos as members of the church chased away their pasto for allegedly impregnating his housemaid. It was learnt that the pastor, Barkuma Andrew, was stopped from leading the church seven months ago when the housemaid, who was also a member of the church, Grace, had complications after aborting the pregnancy. Andrew had lived with his wife, children, wife’s cousin, Favour, and Grace in a three-bedroomed flat on the church premises before the incident. It was gathered that the members had petitioned the Central Conference of the church in Taraba State to investigate the alleged accusation. Then sought the service of another pastor three weeks ago when the district reportedly failed to probe Andrew. At 10 am on Sunday, members of the church showed up for Sunday service only to see that Andrew and some “unknown” people had commenced the service. This angered the congregation which proceeded to cha

Boko Haram kills 56 in remote part of Borno State

Islamic extremist group Boko Haram killed 56 villagers in a remote area, the governor of Borno State of the region said, as the government warned that the extremists are trying to extend their violent campaign. Gov. Kashim Shettima confirmed the attack in Baanu village during a meeting with the parents of the 219 girls abducted from a school in the region by the extremists last year. Thursday marked 500 days of captivity of the girls from a school in Chibok. "I want us all to understand that the Boko Haram crisis is a calamity that has befallen us, as the insurgents do not discriminate whether somebody is Christian or Muslim, neither do they have any tribal sympathy or affiliations. Just yesterday they killed 56 people in Baanu village of Nganzai local government, as I am speaking to you their corpses are still littered on the street of the village because virtually everyone in the village had to run for their lives". He did not provide further details of the attack. Fleeing
