The Lion's Den is a Real Deal. Programs like this should be encouraged by all means. Who wants to be a millionaire and other programs that build Human capacity should be encouraged. .....but, I will vote and advocate that shows like BBNaija be taken off the Nigerian Media Space. wasting lives and resources to enrich very few with obscenity and immorality.

Temporary reprieve. To last in business, 'low cost' money or capital is the way to go . That means percentage of indebtedness should be near zero or zero. This is true for both personal and business finance. 40% is still a princely sum. (Ask anyone who has ever had to service a loan. ) The major win I see for him here is the mentorship, and a little more time to turn things around. Wish him all the best.

@ayoalonge Жыл бұрын
Well I don't think it works like that, if he can service his debt, then he stands a chance of going into debt again. Sounds funny right? And then remember he mentioned family, friends and a couple sharks. Some of them will not when to get the money back from him at an instance while some will. But business is all about managing long term debts so he will definitely find his way around it. I believe a lot of these lions are also in some debts not because they can stay debt free but because it's better. Debt is tax free, it's depreciates with time especially if it's in a local currency imagine borrowing 50million naira and convert to dollars(not really good though, it's better to buy assets) and wait three years😂
