Introduction- investing
 Investing is the act of seeking value at least sufficient to justify the amount paid. Consciously paying more in the
hope that it can soon be sold for a still higher price should be labeled as speculation- Warren Buffet
 Investing is an act of faith, a willingness to postpone present consumption and save for the future.We entrust our
capital to corporate stewards in the faith- at least with the hope that their effort will generate high rates of
return on our investment- John C. Bogle

The economics of wealth creation and management- what are the odds?
-Inflation & Exchange Rate-
 Value erosion is at the heart of poverty in Nigeria
 Win that battle, and you increase your chances of financial success
 Inflation in Nigeria averaged 11.93% between 2010 and 2020, for a cumulative 131.23%, and compounded at 245%.
 Your investment in 2010, needs to grow by 245% to break-even in 2020. If you invested N100,000 in 2010, you need to have
N345,000 by 2020, otherwise, you’ve lost money. That doesn’t account for the risk taken on the investment.
 At the end of 2020, Naira was worth just 39% its value in 2010 relative to the USD
 During this reference period, the NSE-ASI returned 64%
 That means your N100,000 invested in the NSE-ASI in 2010 will be worth N164,000 at the end of 2020- that’s 47.5% of the amount
needed to breakeven.

Improving the odds- Life cycle and financial planning

 Phase 1: 0-20 – Birth & Education ( most already work part-time by 16)
 Phase 2: 21-60 – EarningYears
 Phase 3: >60 – Retirement (life expectancy about 80 years)
 Ideal Life cycle- Nigeria (Adjusted for life expectancy)
 Phase 1: 0-20 – Birth & Education
 Phase 2: 21-56 – EarningYears ( Life expectancy 56 years)
