As much as I hate to say this, Nigeria’s economic situation
is not worse to the extent that, an eighteen-year-old person
can’t have a bank account.
I’m not asking how much you have there. My concern is,
how do you intend saving for the future. The bank account
should be a channel to save. Save now and be Safe later.
Before thirty, you should have dedicated bank account, for
your business investment, for personal use, for proposed
family… This makes an ideal spouse.
You shouldn’t live from hand to mouth at thirty. Some
funds are better kept in bank than your purse. In fact, some
transactions are better made electronically than in cash.
