Are you considering a physical business in 2022?

Before the new year, some guys in the neighborhood asked me for Christmas stuff and I agreed to buy them drinks since that was what they loved more but one of them refused while others took it.

He said, "Sir Demo, I want pepper soup". I tried talking him out of it by giving him different excuses but he was adamant, he said he wouldn't mind waiting for a month before getting it. I agreed to do it but at my convenience and he was okay with it. The new year celebration passed and I still didn't have the time but I finally did it a few days ago.

Because it was a gift, I decided to spice things up with the pepper soup. I felt so bad I didn't take any pictures since I wouldn't be needing it but some came up today and it made me regret not taking the shots.

I have had different pepper soup from different spots in Lagos but I still love having it cooked myself so preparing it for the guy wasn't an issue, I just couldn't guess how much pepper he can handle because I eat a lot of pepper. I got some of the ingredients and plantain, prepared, and sent it to the guy where he works.

I called to apologize it wasn't much because mom came in while I was preparing it and she demanded some and I had no choice but to share between them, mom kept giving nice compliments about the meal and it made me happy but the guy never said anything. I waited for days and took my mind off it.

While working at the farm yesterday, he came around and said how much would it cost him to get the exact kind of pepper soup I prepared for him before?

I turned the discussion in another direction so he further explained that he love the soup a lot and he clearly stated that it tasted better than the one sold in the club where he worked, I started blushing at that point. He said the bar attendants who were female didn't allow him to enjoy it because of the aroma so he wanted another one.

I told him I was going to send him another whenever I have the time to prepare it and we moved on to another topic. He was about to leave when he said, " bro, why don't you have a kitchen for just pepper soup?. You are going to make good sales and he smiled".

I smiled back without giving him any answer but after the whole farm stress, I told my siblings about it and they were like, it would make lots of sense.

I chatted my fiancee up and she gave the same response, she added that it would be a dream come true for me since I have always wanted to have a kitchen for African dishes. My brain has been running wild since yesterday and it looked like that could help me achieve the plan of doing a business that would make me earn daily in 2022 since I harvest at the farm between 4-5 months and that makes me dig into my Crypto wallet.

I always had the plan of owning a kitchen really because I have a passion for cooking but considering the farm work, it might be difficult to run a kitchen at the same time but I have an idea and will share that with you when I am ready to kick off the business if God permits.

While thinking through it again this morning, I concluded that having a physical business where you earn every day isn't a bad idea. I am not disputing the fact that your crypto can sustain you every day but look at the scenario when the dip happens at a crucial moment when you need cash or it lasts longer than it should.

For instance, I have the farm and house rent pay which is around $800. My young siblings are resuming school and there are personal expenses, I will need a total of about $1000 to solve these bills.

Before now, I would have solved this with 2BCH and buy back when I harvest at the farm but right now I have to spend 2.7BCH. The problem doesn't end there, there might be a pump when I am ready to buy, and buying back 2.7BCH will cost more than I sold it.

Having a business outside the crypto verse can save you from digging into your wallet during the unfavorable season in the crypto verse, it would solve half even if not all of your expenses.

The kitchen idea is in the planning stage, it requires proper planning to avoid having issues when things kick-off and I will be looking forward to having you guys patronize me and the amazing thing about it is that BCH will be included in our mode of payment.

Isn't that awesome?

It is the first day of the week and I believe that we are physically and mentally ready to make the best out of the new week.

Let ensure we put the past failure behind us and work towards achieving a greater thing this week, please remember to have rest and fun while pursuing money because you need to be physically and mentally stable to be able to enjoy everything you have worked.

Kids are resuming as well and I urge parents to think about the resumption very well, please talk to your kids about the school and listen to their opinions very well because a lot is happening in schools lately. Do you remember the case of the 12 years old boy who was killed by other students? It has been swept under the carpet because the kids who killed him have parent rich and influential parents that don't want their names tarnished.

Wishing you all a great week and a week free of stress especially for myself. Thanks for reading.
