Money-Making Does not depend on How Educated You Are

This is no longer big news! The man who at some point was the richest in the world, Mr. Bill Gates dropped out of school to pursue his dreams. Many people around the world who are very rich today cannot be said to be well educated in the sense of formal schooling. Many are only well educated from experience in the business world. Back in Nigeria, Prince Samuel Adedoyin is reported to have had only secondary school education but started out in business when he was only 13 years old. He later founded Doyin Investments and started manufacturing household consumables that have been competing favorably with products of multi-nationals like Unilever. His other business interests have spanned Real Estate and Properties, Banking, Chemicals, Pharmaceuticals and Motor Vehicles.  

These are all commendable achievements from a man who did not go beyond secondary school. His success has earned him a lot of respect and recognition at home and abroad. He has made a lot of money from his investments and businesses. As a result, he currently enjoys considerable wealth and comfort from his efforts. A large percentage of successful entrepreneurs in Nigeria have similar low educational background as Prince Adedoyin’s.
