One day I will speak of @tushgeek in detail. But for now, asides from his level of hard work. If you work or do life with this guy, one thing is sure, he will be very honest with you. You see a guy that struggled to build himself and learnt character.

One of the major things I learned after working for @tushgeek for years across two companies is the value of serving + that access > big salary in the beginning…… Kelvin mentored me directly and indirectly, then introduced me to @OoTheNigerian , Oo saw me, liked me introduced

Why does everyone seem to be treating this as one transaction? Maybe cause of the phrase "buy it back" However, these are two separate transactions with profits. This man didn't borrow money nowhere, he simply bought and sold with his capital. The word "Back" is the riddle.

The best/ true relationships (business and life) are built on the foundation of “more of giving, less of taking”. And I don’t particularly mean money. I mean value: time, care, support etc. The moment one starts being all about self and less about the other, it starts dying.
