Some persons just have but do not know what to do with it, how painful.
So they just deposit money in their bank account and end up wasting it.
Ignorance is what limits a man and keeps him on a particular spot.
The sons of Issachar had command over their brethren because they knew what to do and the also had the wisdom to do it at the right time.

The economy is bad and life is getting tougher, thats what everyone out there is screaming and crying but those who know what to do are making the most of this period.

Just imagine any ignorant Nigerian could be out there crying that the naira is further losing grounds against the dollar but i tell you, a host of wise forex traders are out there making millions from this and a lot more.
There has never been a greater opportunity to make long-term investment plans in terms of buying stock and begin to own companies as the trade volumes and market cap continue to plummet.
Please wisely.

FIXED(TIME) DEPOSIT INTEREST RATE OF SOME TOP NIGERIAN BANKS

Having your money in a fixed time deposit is always a good way of saving your hard earned money for specific purposes and added to this is the opportunity to generate more money as fixed deposits always attract a higer interest rate than the regular deposit savings.
Most persons who keep their money in fixed deposit are usually inaware and uninformed of the fact that different financial institutions posses their own unique interest rate hence, they just walk up to any to do business with them.
Below is a list of top Nigerian bank and their fixed time deposit interest rate.

Access bank-5.6%
Diamond bank-6%
Ecobank bank-5.5%
Fcmb-8.5%
Fidelity bank-6.5%
First bank-6.65%
FSDH Merchant bank-14%
GTbank-6.25%
Heritage bank-9%
Skye bank-8.55%
UBA-6%
Unity bank-9%
Wema bank-6.5%
Zenith bank-5%

I hope these figures and info would be helpful to you when next you want to save in a fixed time deposit account.
Please share

STUDENT LOANS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES- THE GAP

In developed nations of the world such as the US & UK, financially challanged citizens are usually granted heaven-on-earth loans to enable them pursue their dreams and interestingly one of the beneficiaries happens to be Barack Obama.
WHAT MAKES THESE LOANS SUPER?
No collateral
You are not hassled to pay up until you graduate
At times, no interest

The condition in developing countries such as Nigeria gets dirty despite lots of financial institutions coming up with student loan programs which i believe are just for attention getting.
These loans are never granted without-
Collateral
Steady source of income
Arangement for monthly servicing etc.
These are no student loans but just the regular business and personal loans we know, dressed up in angelic white by the student tag.

There is a huge gap as seen and the truth remains you cannot force these institutions to grant you loans on your terms.

to become who the are.

REVENUE PLUNGE IN THE MARITIME SECTOR

Statistics from The Nigerian Port Authority(NPA) has indicated a downward trend in the operations of the sector as reflected on the gross tonnage, revenue generated etc.This has been caused by both local factors and inherent limitation brought about by the global economic meltdown.

As reported, the lagos port complex and other major port terminals including those of Tin Can Island, Calabar, Onne, Rivers and Delta, all experienced a downtrend in operational activity.
The Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) recorded a revenue short fall as it only generated N385.7billion which represents a 22.9% short it's expected revenue of N500billion for the Q1 2016 trade period.
The NCS spokesman Wale Adeniyi attributes the year-on-year loss to economic recession saying,"Access to foreign exchange and a drastic fall in the value of the Naira has also affected the services revenue generation"
