BITTER TRUTH- CERTIFICATES ARE OVERRATED

Don't use your little money to pursue PhDs, MPhil, MBA when you have upcoming children to take care of. You can Own Businesses that can have very transformational change in your life than certificates.

Your family can't inherit the Job and Certificates you pursue but they can at least inherit your Printing and stationery business, Agriculture Business, Fast food joint and co.

You can die whilst Pursuing the course, you may be frustrated by the institution and may never complete the course(now your destiny, money wasted), you may never get promoted, motivated even with those certifications.

Life is not about big certificates, but good relationship and how much your life has touch and change people for God. Mention can be made of so many people in our part of the world with few certificates but caused great change in Ghana/ world and beyond like Mensah Otabil, Mother Theresah, Ali Dangote , Asuma Banda , Yaa Asantewaa etc.

Have a Rethink and invest that money in your children and a business now. Too much of certificates doesn't buy you success.

Buy a plot of land by the road today, build shops and create business plans for your children, get them engaged. Jobs should be part-time not a permanent source of survival. Let's think of multiple streams of income as measure to solve our financial challenges . Salaries are meant to be seed money for setting up our permanent businesses and not for consumption.
The president of Kenya puts it better in the above quote.
