A Nigerian man known as Asim Balarabe Yazid has shared an inspiring story on social media of how he invested the money he meant to use to buy an iPhone 12 Pro Max.
According to Asim, rather than using the money to get the sophisticated mobile device, he used it to open a suya joint, adding that he has been able to employ three people.
The young man said the business is growing and he has some money left to pay salaries for three months.
In his words: “I was planning to buy an iPhone 12 Pro Max, but instead I opened @suyacraze outlet. Now shop is open, business is growing Alhamdulillah, 3 people are employed and still have remaining change to pay salary for 3 months. I believe saving to invest is better than saving to spend.”
