Welcome to my blog.

As a Nigerian, choosing between long life and wealth with he current state of my country is quite tempting and confusing at the same time. It's been long I saw this topic, but I could not decide what to choose, health or wealth. I have finally made my decision, and here I am, sharing it with everyone.

I asked some persons about their take, and they told me that the choose wealth over health, and they asked me a particular question that I can't answer uptilll date and that question is: if you chose long life over wealth and live long, with which money will you fend for yourself?

This question has been ringing in my head but I just reminded myself of happiness. Happiness is the key to anything prosperous, and with happiness, one can enjoy their life with their loved ones irrespective of wether or not there is wealth.

On this note, my take on this topic is ......

Wanna know my response to this topic? Well, Let's dive in

Health they say is wealth, but in Nigeria, trust me, wealth is health. We have this mentality that money could buy anything, including health, and our government is proving us right. Without money, an individual is nobody in Nigeria. The price of fuel skyrocketed in just 48hrs as if fuel is now a crypto currency 😹😹

But anyways

Irrespective of the ups and downs, my take for this particular topic is...........

Here we go

I choose health over wealth. I prefer to healthily live long and be happy with the little I have than to die young.

Long life has its own advantages trust me. I will love to live long and see my great grand children play in my parlour, I will love to watch over them while they are sleeping and I will love to tell them stories of my life encounters.

My grand parents died before I knew it and as such, I grew up without knowing who they are. I would not want that for my grandchildren, so, I will love to live long and let them ask me different questions about life, while I answer. I have tons of questions I was to ask my grandparents but, well, I didn't meet them.

There is no doubt, I love money... Yes, I really love money because with money comes power and with power comes control over everything, and I would want to be as powerful as ever, but what is the use of the power when I will die young and would not get the chance of enjoying my life to the fullest? Thinking of this topic, I have come to realize that money is not everything, and trust me, the fact that I will be wealthy wouldn't mean that I would not need anything again... Even the rich and wealthy, will always ask for something.

For me, there is no need for being wealthy when I could enjoy the rest of my life with my loved ones.

Thank you for stopping by my blog.

I hope to see you next time.
