AfroGist: 21 People Talk About How $10,000 Would Affect Their Lives Right Now
Money, money: the so-called ‘root of all evil’ that many would go sleepless for several nights just to get.
Despite its seeming scarcity, most people do not delay in imagining the many things they would do with a few thousand dollar bills in their hands.
In this week’s episode of AfroGist, we asked our contributors how $10,000 would affect their lives right now.
These are their answers;
‘Send my parents out to this country. Finally marry the girl of my dreams and relocate.’

‘It would affect my life and my family in a very long way. Firstly, I can help my family and make them comfortable and then set up my business after that.’

‘Basically for me, it would help boost my business to the next level. I have a business I run now in my final year in school but I have plans on expanding after graduation. I need funds to help execute all my plans. I know our government doesn’t provide jobs for us, so with this $10,000 I can get a store in Benin, furnish it and restock my goods. Also, I will employ at least 2 people to help make my work easier. Also, owning a logistics company for ease with delivering my goods around Benin would also be nice too. So this fund will definitely help a 23 year old Nigerian lady achieve her dreams this year.
