Greetings!
For someone like me who was born without a silver spoon, it's just a norm for me when I was at the university to do an extra or side business just to support myself as there's no even anyone for me who I can call upon, as I have lost my support system who was my mum a year earlier to my admission into the university.
So, even before going to the university, it's always been from one hustle to the other as there was no one and i must go to school, so, for this reason, I have planned myself before going to school and thank God I was able achieve my aim of making money to sponsor myself in the school.
However, my only fear back then was how to cope when I got to school, as I had been told by a friend to do all my hustle before going to school as there would be no time for such again when lecture started.
So, when I heard this, I was like how would I be able to cope, but on getting to campus, and after my 100 level, I realized that things can be done despite what my friend had once told me, so, immediately I realized this, I ventured into what I have started from home before coming to school and that was the supplying of the building materials such as granite and stone dust.
I know some people would be wondering how I was able to do this combined with my academics, but don't forget that I have been doing this before coming to school, so it was kind of easier for me as I already had my customer base and connections on ground.
So, the only thing I did was to place a call across and connect both the driver and the contractor/engineer together. Although I had neglected the business for almost a year, coming back was not something hard for me.
And with the coming back into this my side hustle aside from my academics, I was able to sponsor myself in the school and even help others and even after my educational pursuit, I settled down with the business and I can say that, it's really been a blessing to me and with it I'm doing fine.
In conclusion, my school life was full of side hustle as I also have other side hustle, such as buying of palm oil and the likes, but my major side hustle is that one I have talked at length about which is supplying of building materials, though there were challenges as regard the side hustle and my academics, but I was able to overcome at the end.
Thanks for reading.
