You spent at least 4 years in the university or polytechnic, did they ever teach you anything about your personal economy? Yes, did they prepare you for yourself? Most times, schools are designed to prepare us for WORK, as factors of production (Labour), in companies, organizations or governments.
Simply, one of the greatest surprises when I started work as a banker was this: the university system prepared me on how to manage resources for companies, but did a very poor job on how I could manage my own personal resources.
In FUT Owerri, we studied great topics in Engineering Management like Engineer Turns Manager, Managerial Accounting, etc. In all those domains, everything was on how to optimize resources for the employer (yes, the company). But none for the village boy’s Personal Economy. That is why at Tekedia Institute, we have courses on Personal Economy Management.
