The richest man in China said, “If you put the bananas and money in front of the monkeys, the monkeys will choose bananas because the monkeys don't know that money can buy a lot of bananas.

In fact, if you offer WORK and BUSINESS to people, they will choose to WORK because most people don't know that a BUSINESS can make more MONEY than a salary.

One of the reasons the poor are poor is because the poor are not trained to recognize the entrepreneurial opportunity.

They spend a lot of time in school and what they learn in school is to work for a salary instead of working for themselves.

Profit is better than wages because wages can support you, but profits can make you a fortune.

Let's remember these tips 💝💪💝

Illiteracy is when two young people with no rich background get married by getting loans for their R250 000 wedding, then immediately finance a R1.8 million house to live in, R600 000 car for Wifey, R600 000 car for hubby and then finance overseas trips with credit cards, and buy new clothes on credit every time they attend a wedding or a function. All this financed with salaries. This madness is the reason black people are scared to leave their jobs to start businesses for their kids.

A salary is meant to be treated like a seed. You can either eat all your seeds, and borrow some more seeds from your neighbours to EAT, or you can plant your seeds, scatter them accross the field so that they can grow and you can later harvest. Most people wake up at 40 and act surprised when the decisions they have made, not to invest, not to save, not to start businesses, and to live lifestyles that are beyond their means have caught up with them.

Your salary is the capital that you need to make your dreams a reality - the dream of one day being financially free, able to help people, able to finance your lifestyle without borrowing! You invest today, scatter seeds across the field, harvest and enjoy later.

We are on the verge of the Sharpville shooting commemoration, and we want to know where is the advertisement of the procurement of services for the event or it is our economy on the firing line to be massacred or looted in today's political terms.
I will also write a letter of concern and publish on this platform and the authorities feedback.
Just a reminder: Sedibeng Business Forum exists to fight for the socioeconomic well being of our society. And ensure that as the community of Sedibeng District, we benefit justly from the opportunities of our land.

Nokia CEO ended his speech saying this “we didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow, we lost”.

During the press conference to announce NOKIA being acquired by Microsoft, Nokia CEO ended his speech saying this “we didn’t do anything wrong, but somehow, we lost”. Upon saying that, all his management team, himself included, teared sadly.

Nokia has been a respectable company. They didn’t do anything wrong in their business, however, the world changed too fast. Their opponents were too powerful.

They missed out on learning, they missed out on changing, and thus they lost the opportunity at hand to make it big. Not only did they miss the opportunity to earn big money, they lost their chance of survival.

The message of this story is, if you don’t change, you shall be removed from the competition.

It’s not wrong if you don’t want to learn new things. However, if your thoughts and mindset cannot catch up with time, you will be eliminated.

Conclusion:
1. The advantage you have yesterday, will be replaced by the trends of tomorrow. You don’t have to do anything wrong, as long as your competitors catch the wave and do it RIGHT, you can lose out and fail.

To change and improve yourself is giving yourself a second chance. To be forced by others to change, is like being discarded.
Those who refuse to learn & improve, will definitely one day become redundant & not relevant to the industry. They will learn the lesson in a hard & expensive way.
