We take a look at 10 things every Nigerian guy should have achieved by age 30.
1. Be Matured – Maturity is not an age thing, but if by 30 years, a guy isn’t matured; then he’s on his way to multiple failures on all front.
2. Be in a serious relationship – If not married, then he should be in a serious relationship and getting ready to settle down soon.
3. Be Educated (formal or informal) – He should have attained his first degree or should have graduated as a qualified artisan in his chosen field.
4. Have a Home of his own (rented, brought or built) – We don’t expect that by 30, any guy should be living with his parents and feeding on their pot, he can, however, live in a property built by his father/mother if he has a flat owned by himself alone.
5. Have a paying job or business – He should either have a good paying job, even when it’s below what he thinks he deserves or he should be in business, doing good for himself and family.
6. Be responsible – He should be responsible and live a responsible lifestyle
7. Be Independent – He should take his decisions (with or without advice) – He should be his own oga in that department
8. Have a set goal – He should by this age, have a set and defined goal, a picture of where he wants to be in the nearest future
9. Learn to Drive a car – Even if he doesn’t own a car, every 30 years old should have attained training in driving to a large extent – an opportunity could open up or an emergency that would require him driving a car
10. Have a saving – He should have a saving plan, for the future, his family and a retirement plan.
Thanks for reading; remember to start planning today, every day counts – and if already you’re above 30 years and yet to achieve some of the things highlighted above, start now to aim and work towards achieving them.
