Applause greets the adventure of Paddy Adenuga who almost bought Chevron Netherlands at 29. Nigerians are happy that he made the audacious move at the young age without support from his billionaire father, Dr Mike Adenuga, Jnr.
Three things I picked from Paddy Adenuga’s story.
1. Network. Build business relationships. Strengthen your network. Cultivate your business relationships.
2. Pride has no place in business. Do what is best for your business/ideas. Not your ego.
3. Be knowledgeable. Research.— Yemi (@Babygiwa) January 29, 2018
At 29 Alexis is being paid over $350,000 a week
At 29 Aubameyang is joining Arsenal for $50m+
At 29 Paddy Adenuga almost bought Chevron Netherland
At 29 Mark Zuckerberg had a networth of $34bnTo the 28 year olds out there, dont say you’re too young to achieve greatness. Push.

I strongly believe Paddy Adenuga is about to get an appointment or launch a product. That’s the only reason he shared this story. Let’s watch and see till the end of 2018.

Paddy Adenuga could have called his father and use his contacts to locate the eventual winner of that bid but he didn’t. He wanted to pull that deal off all by himself. That’s what I’m talking about.

The Paddy Adenuga’s story taught me some things.
1. It’s easier to dream when you have plenty money or you know people that have plenty money
2. Don’t delete those contacts on your phone. Even that ‘tunde rewire’
3. Make that money.
MAKE PLENTY OF IT !— dodolicious (@NaijaInfluencer) January 30, 2018

Paddy Adenuga didn’t use any Harvard Business School idea. All he did was use his well package Nigeria business idea. Although he failed but his business idea is absolutely awesome. Paddy Adenuga’s story is mind blowing. Paddy Adenuga accomplished this at age 29. Wow

Two lessons from Paddy Adenuga’s article for me:
1. Everyone counts. One new person on my network expands my Rolodex significantly
2. I won’t always win despite all my efforts. I can however evaluate what happened and use that experience for future endeavors
