Tell us about the very first time you made money for yourself. I do not mean your first job, I mean the first time you did something and got paid for it. If in your case, it's a job, then all the same. Tell us all about it and how much you made
My first earning happened some years ago of which I can't even recall the exact date. But I was in junior secondary school then.
Okay how did it happen.
Here is the story.
Back then during my junior secondary school days . My family relocated to a new state and a new house so I started my junior secondary school in a new school, New state, new house, new environment and also got to meet new people.
When we moved to the new apartment my mom will always makes sure that every weekend she fries chin chin for us all to chill with before the start of another week.
That has been the routine since we moved to our new house and environment. Sometimes she makes pancakes. But most of the time it was always chin chin.
We children in the house puts in effort to make the work easy for her, so we adopted the division of labor method. That way, making the chin chin was fast, less stress and easy to do. We do lots of it and preserve for the whole weekend. Sometimes it remains for weekdays.
Now, how did I go about my first earnings? .
There was a weekend we made chin chin and preserved, we ate during the weekend and it remained at the beginning of the week's working day(Monday) so I put some of the chin chin in a small plate and carried to school for my friends. We all ate it during break and my friends appreciated and was happy I brought such chops for them. We spoke a lot about the sweet taste and ended up saying probably I should put some in a neat nylon for sale to other students.
I went home that week and told my mom I needed more chin chin during weekend. The weekend came and she made more chin chin for me and my friends.she gave all to me and I poured some of it in a plate for my friends and myself and put some in a neat nylon for others to buy.
I packed it all and carried to school on Monday.
During school break I brought them out and told my class mates about it. And they did patronized me, that was how I go about my first earnings through HOME MADE CHIN-CHIN .
Earning extra cash after the whole pocket money given to me from home was a bonus for me. The feeling I had after earning that extra cash was something I could not explain.
