3 Reasons Why You Can’t Save




Saving  is a culture we all must embrace to save and secure our future. So many people wish to save but find it very difficult for one reason or the other.  The truth is that we have to save, not minding what we might be going through.

Some people will say, “I can’t save because I don’t have enough”. I will say that as far as you can feed, you can save.  Remember if you are not saving, you are safe.
 
There are three major reasons why you can’t save now:

 You are in control of your money at tough time: If you have access to your savings at tough time it might be very difficult for you to save. Saving your money in one of your accounts doesn’t stop you from spending it when you are broke because you still have easy access to it. But when you have it stocked in another hands, for instant in a multipurpose cooperative society, your access to such money will be reduced.

 I could not save for a long time until I realized the need to reduce access to my savings. Why not work on yourself too now that you know.


  
No saving plan strategy: You need to develop a saving strategy to have a saving grace. There is a need for you to develop a saving plan: what amount are you saving? Where are you putting your money? When are you going to start? How much can I save per day to achieve my goal in one year? Etc.


Nothing to save for: You might want to ask, why should I save? That’s a good question! The truth is that if you have nothing to save for, you can’t think of saving. You most have critical needs that will motivate to save. If you are not living in your own house or you are driving an official car, you need to save to have your own properties.

Tiwa Savage 
Two of Pepsi’s core offerings to its youth market, music and soccer, were unleashed at the Eko Atlantic Beach, Lagos this Easter during the third edition of the Pepsi Co-sponsored Gidi Fest.


 
The concert co-sponsored and refreshed by leading soft-drink, Pepsi, featured top entertainers from Nigeria and South Africa such as: Pepsi music ambassador, Tiwa Savage, Phyno, Timaya, Riky Rick, K.O. Yemi Alade, UK artiste Rachel Carr, Riky Rick and K.O. both from South Africa. Fast rising artistes Adekunle Gold, Small Doctor, David Grey, opened the show.
Pepsi Ambassador, Tiwa Savage once again showed why she is Nigeria's most sought after female artiste by delivering a performance to remember at the just concluded Gidi Culture Fest which was co-sponsored by leading soft drink Pepsi. Enervated at a stage during her performance Tiwa reached for a bottle of cold Pepsi to refresh and regain her groove.

The event also had corporate executives trying out their skills in beach soccer with their colleagues cheering them on from the sidelines. The hot sandy beach and an energy sapping game left the players dehydrated at half-time but they regained their vigour to play after being refreshed by Pepsi.
