Picture this:
Two friends, Ada and Tolu, both get a sudden cash gift of ₦100,000 (God, when?).
While Ada immediately hits the ‘gram with a shopping spree, and bringing all her screenshots to life.
Tolu decides to “invest” hers.
The twist?
Three months later, Ada is flexing with new sneakers and upgraded wigs, while Tolu is…well, still waiting for her investment to mature.
Let’s hear from them.
Ada’s POV: “Look, I work hard, so I deserve to enjoy my life. Plus, tomorrow is not promised—if I can afford it now, why not?”
(And let’s be honest, Ada is giving “soft life energy.”)
Tolu’s POV: “I believe in delayed gratification. I might not see the returns now, but future me will thank me for this. Wealth is a long game, abeg. Abi do you want my throwback to be fresher than my present ni?”
But here’s where it gets tricky: After six months, Ada’s sneakers have creased, and the wigs aren’t wiggling like before. Tolu’s investment? It’s grown by just ₦10,000. Not exactly a jackpot, but it’s something.
Now, here’s the question: Who do you think made the wiser choice—Ada, who enjoyed the moment, or Tolu, who played the long game? Let’s hear your take in the comments—Team Enjoyment or Team Investment?
