When we celebrate October 1st, we’re remembering a journey toward self-determination. At GetEquity, we think about independence every day too, but in financial terms. True independence isn’t just a public holiday; it’s having choices about your money.
This post explores three practical ways Nigerian investors are building financial independence:
- Using regulated fixed-income instruments such as commercial papers and debt notes to create predictable cash flow.
- Diversifying income streams so one employer or market doesn’t control your future.
- Documenting your investing journey to stay disciplined.
The tools are available; the mindset is what turns them into freedom. As Nigeria marks another year of independence, ask yourself what financial freedom would look like for you in 12 months — and start taking the steps now.
