“Saving your income is such a painful process, especially when you see ur friends who don't save, spending extravagantly and acquiring different good names from ladies, society and bar men.I will compare savings to a toothache, where by the tooth pains you the whole night, but in the morning you are afraid to face that dentist with his huge chisel and a 2 inches jackson, ready to remove the tooth. the pains of removing the tooth is just for a few hours compared with the pain you will experience the whole night. Save now good names like Boss and Merchant will follow you forever in the future not these temporally ones”

“If the world was perfect and smooth we would want to pay everything for cash and never need to get loans. But having any other loans apart from school loan and a mortgage is a huge mistake, these are the only loans which can give you tax breaks and an opportunity to use your monthly cash flow to invest or build savings”

“The killers of savings and investments plans are impatience and the fear of death, when you want to invest, focus on what you want to be in 5 years not asking yourself senseless questions like,What if i die before the saving plan mature? Remember we didn't die 5 years ago, but look at ourselves now, we don't have any savings and no sign that we can start up our on business. A financial principled man is a dangerous man who doesn't even fear death and risks”

“The first way to save and invest your money is to make a budget, and it should be done when you have absolutely nothing.Once you have received the salary into your account, keep record of every expenditure, and don't buy what is not in the budget.Compare the budgeted and actual in the next month then improve”
