Some time ago I wrote about an 81 year old Louise White who overnight became $336.4million dollars!. I mentioned to you then that a Yoruba adage says ‘bori ba pe nile a dire’!

In my Living years on earth, I have come to understand that it is not the level of knowledge you have, or perhaps whether you are born with a golden spoon in your mouth that determines your success in life. Even these two elements are definite catalyst to catapult you to greatness, it also depends on your ”destiny’, Yoruba’s will say ‘ori’, simply meaning ‘head’! . If you are destined to become rich in life and has been written in your DNA before you landed on planet earth, no matter what happens, no matter the storms of life that may carry you, it will surely lead you to your land of abundance. Indians call it ‘Karma’, if you also have a bad one, no matter what to do in life, become a professor, even become the President of the world bank, something will happen that will take you back to the land of misfortune. As I always say, ‘Where my ‘head’ is going to reap wealth, joy and prosperity, I pray my legs lead me there.
