Finance
Being young sometimes feels like a spell. No matter what truths you’re generously supplied, there is always the tendency to dump them in a dustbin and insist on buying them with hard-earned years, with tears and a bit of one’s sanity. It seems humans are incapable of appreciating truths they have not lived. Maybe it…

Married to the Game
I saw him everyday. In the mornings. Very early. Between 6 and 7am. The place I met him varied depending on the time I left the house. But so far as I stepped out around those hours, I surely bumped into him. He seemed to have no holidays, no breaks. Always in same clothes, soaked…

Old vs New Books
Many old books are different from today’s books. And readers were much more curious about the content of a book than its title or cover page designs. Perhaps because of social media and many alternative forms of entertainment and sources of information. However, I strongly believe the old ways always pay. The efforts put into…

But you certainly don’t want to pump your sweat and precious time into something that makes you constantly look back…

Africa and AI
Whenever new things are created, there are those who celebrate the new milestone and there are others who specialize in criticizing it. Sometimes, the criticism is constructive.

This road is hard
This road is hard It’s a test Of my own principles Who sent me To preach things I cannot practice And say things I lack the commitment To do? This road is rough And now that I take it I understand Why so many shun it I shall journey it And leave footprints Of one…

We harm ourselves
We create our own problems. We sowed the seeds of what we’re harvesting today. We create mess for ourselves. And though we know that what we’re doing has terrible implications, we cannot stop the habit we’ve become accustomed to. It even seems fun destroying ourselves. But how long can we keep doing this? These days…
