There are no freebies anywhere. If you are not paying, you are simply the product.
In our environment today, we already know this truth: nothing goes for nothing. If you did not pay with money, check again you probably paid with your time, your data, your trust, or your future.
As the elders say,
“You cannot shave a man’s head in his absence.” This simply means in other to be fooled your presence and participation is required !
Every platform, opportunity, or promise that looks “free” is usually designed to benefit someone else first. Your clicks, your time, your personal information, or even your silence is what keeps the system running. This is not fear talk , it is awareness.
“The eye that sees far does not rush.”
Too many people rush into “free” opportunities because they are desperate or uninformed. That is how traps are set. That is how people get used. Urgency is the bait and Ignorance is the hook. Never let ignorance push you into a trap.
Remember:
“The goat that follows the crowd enters the market early.” And Not every crowd is going to a good place.
In a world full of manipulation and shortcuts, wisdom will always be your greatest asset! Never let ignorant people push you into traps they do not understand themselves. Think for yourself. Ask questions! Learn before you leap.
African proverb warns us:
“If you do not know where you are going, any road will take you there.”
Smart people invest in knowledge instead of shortcuts. They understand that growth requires intention, not impulse.
Take time to analyse ! Ask relevant questions for clarity! Never be in a hurry ! Because only the careless rush in. And the most expensive thing you can be is uninformed.
An African proverb says:
“The one who does not know where the rain began to beat him cannot know where he dried his body.”
Always remember: “When something is free, you are not the customer, you are the product.”
Wise people understand this early and that is why they always ask questions! They read between the lines! They do not rush into trends, investments, or opportunities simply because others are doing it. They understand that ignorance is expensive and blind trust is dangerous. They also know what many people fail to realize and that is : When money is not involved, you often become the currency.
Wise up! Stay sharp! Protect your value!
