Nigerian Man Shares Reasons Why You Should Enjoy Your Money Now And Not Labor in Vain After Losing 3 Close Friends To Cancer

ENJOY YOUR MONEY NOW BECAUSE….

I have lived in the UK since February 1990 and have spent the majority of my life here. God has been good to me, and I am grateful.

Over those years, I enjoyed stability, peace, and comfort in the company of some close friends who became pillars in my life. We suffered together: Did odd jobs, battled with the immigration authorities, studied together, got married, raised our children, bought properties, and made some money. We looked forward to our retirement together, and so we thought.

Suddenly, people started getting sick and mostly of cancer. One by one, those pillars that surrounded me started crumbling. None of you reading this will believe what has happened to my circle of friends in the past three years. I lost my PA of many years on the 22nd of May 2023, another friend on the 21st of August 2023, another on 31 January 2025, another on the 3rd of February 2026, another on the 19th of May 2026, and another on the 24th of May 2026. These were people I was very close to, and I was involved in their care. They left harrowing voice notes for me and told me things I cannot disclose to anyone before they died. All of them died of cancer. Sadly, I had to bury three of them as their friend and pastor. No two days have been the same for me. I pick up my phone to call them, but they are no longer there. When some clients said they called and sent messages but did not get a response, it was not deliberate. I ignored myself, too, but I am getting better. Life happened!

Why am I being this open? All of them suffered and worked hard. They were between 50 and 65 years old. They looked forward to their pension. They looked forward to spending time with their spouse and grandchildren, but it never happened.

So, to you, who is working hard and looking forward to your pension, there may be no pension. There may be no old age. Start enjoying your life now. Start enjoying your money now. Start fulfilling those dreams now. Do not spend your life laboring to die without tasting what you labored for. That was what happened to my seven hardworking and good friends within the last three years. I am heartbroken, and I missed them all. There is no one to throw football banters with. They all supported teams that I don’t support or like😜

For my remaining friends and readers of this article, may the Lord help us and protect us. Remember that life is temporary and unpredictable. May we enjoy the fruits of our labor, but we need to turn our prayers to intentional enjoyment of our money before it is too late. If old age comes, it comes, but enjoy now. Psalm 39:6.

Hold on, I am trying to book my next holiday. Book yours too. See you later.
