The reason why you still need your job is because your money is unemployed.

The problem is you are your only asset and so you must exchange time for money.

If your money isn't working for you through assets, systems, already created products, you are forced to keep working for money...

And so if your income stops the day you stop working. Your money is still unemployed.

I don't have any issue with a job. Infact I have a job. I just have an issue with it being your only source of income.

I grew up in Kano, but I currently work in Lagos as a software engineer.

Lagos is one of the most competitive business environments in Africa—everyone is sharp, informed, and moving fast.

But Kano operates differently.

While most opportunities in Lagos are public and heavily competed for, Kano runs on positioning, relationships, and supply chains that most people never see online.

Opportunities don’t trend on Twitter.

They move quietly through markets, warehouses, and trusted networks.

While ₦18 billion flows through Kano markets DAILY, very few outsiders understand how that value is created—or where to plug in.

Over the last 3 years, I didn’t speculate.
I participated.

I built relationships.
I sourced products.
I ran businesses physically and remotely—even while living in Lagos.

I documented everything I found:

→ Where to source products at 40-60% below Lagos wholesale
→ How to manage businesses remotely
→ Which opportunities actually produce returns (and which ones don’t)
→ How to avoid common traps and scams that quietly drain capital

If you’re tired of playing in overcrowded markets…
If you have capital but lack direction…
If you want insight that comes from being on the ground, not theory…

And I documented everything.

Inside The Kano Money Map, I break down:
→ Where to source products at 40–60% below Lagos wholesale prices
→ How to manage Kano-based businesses remotely
→ Which opportunities actually produce returns (and which ones don’t)
→ How to avoid common traps and scams that quietly drain capital

No hype.
No theory.
Just real market structure and ex*****on.

If you’re tired of overcrowded markets…
If you have capital but lack direction…
If you want insight that comes from being on the ground, not guesswork…

𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 ₦𝟓𝟎𝟎𝐤, 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐈 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐲 𝟗-𝟓 𝐣𝐨𝐛?

👇👇👇

A friend asked me a few days ago,

“𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 ₦𝟓𝟎𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰, 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐧
𝐈 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐲 𝐣𝐨𝐛?”

Sounds like a solid question, right?

And yes, I’ll answer it. But before I do, let me address some very ⚠️ 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐈𝐌𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓 ⚠️ that need urgent attention.

𝑭𝑰𝑹𝑺𝑻𝑳𝒀: 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐋 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐌

𝐍𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐞 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭.
𝐏𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐨𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

If someone with poor money habits gets ₦500k, they’ll lose it.
If they get ₦500 million, they’ll still lose it, only on a bigger scale.

So the first real question isn’t “What business should I do?”
It’s “Who is the person holding this capital?”

I've watched too many people get windfalls, salary increases, business profits, even lottery wins, make "smart" investments, enjoy success for a year or two, then somehow find themselves back at square one.

Why?

Because they never fixed their relationship with money.

Money is a receipt of its wielder.

Your bank account balance will always reflect your internal financial state, not your investment choices.

Think about it: if ₦500 million landed in the hands of someone who can't manage ₦50,000 properly, what do you think happens?

They might do well for a while with good investment advice, but eventually?

They'll return to their starting point because money has a way of flowing back to its comfort zone, which is the mind of its owner.

𝑺𝑬𝑪𝑶𝑵𝑫𝑳𝒀: 𝐓𝐇𝐄 “𝐏𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐄” 𝐋𝐈𝐄

Let’s debunk this myth: 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞. None. Zero. Zilch.

What people call "passive income" is actually the result of systems that required massive amounts of time, energy, and resources to build.

That “rental property” generating monthly income?

Someone had to:

- Research neighborhoods for months
- Navigate Lagos property laws
- Deal with difficult tenants
- Handle repairs and maintenance drama

Those “dividend stocks” paying quarterly?

Someone had to:

- Study company reports until their eyes bled
- Understand market cycles and economic trends
- Monitor portfolio performance constantly

That "automated" online business?

Someone spent:

- Months learning digital marketing
- Countless hours creating content
- Years building systems and processes

The income becomes relatively passive only after you've invested heavily in building expertise and bulletproof systems.

Stop looking for passive income.

Start building active systems that eventually require less active management.

What exists are systems. Once built, they run with less of your daily involvement.

So the goal isn’t passive income. The goal is leverage.

𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑹𝑫𝑳𝒀: 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝟕-𝐘𝐄𝐀𝐑 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐈𝐏𝐋𝐄:

Remember the Biblical story of the 7 years of abundance and 7 years of scarcity.

That story Ancient Egyptian King and Joseph, is one I love because of the principles.

Life operates in cycles, 7 years of abundance, 7 years of scarcity.

What you do during your 7 years of abundance determines how you thrive in the 7 years of scarcity.

Of course, you know these 7 years are figurative, for some it might be 20 years or so, and for others 2 years.

Most people upgrade their lifestyle every time their income increases.

New salary = new car. Business profit = bigger apartment. Windfall = expensive vacation.

Then, when tough times come (and they always come), they're devastated.

Smart people prepare. They build systems during good times that sustain them through any season.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐋 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍: 𝐖𝐇𝐎 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔?

Before asking "Where should I invest my money?" ask yourself:

- Do I have a budget and stick to it?
- Can I delay gratification for long-term goals?
- Do I understand the difference between assets and liabilities?
- Have I developed multiple streams of income?
- Do I save consistently, regardless of my income level?
- Can I make sound financial decisions under pressure?

- Emergency Fund Rules: Build 3-6 months of expenses before any investment conversation.
Keep it accessible, not in some investment you can't touch if your car breaks down.

- Multiple Income Streams: Your salary should never be your only source of income.
That's financial su***de in today's Nigerian economy.

- Debt Reality Check: Pay off high-interest debt before thinking about investments.
You can't be paying 30% interest on loans while chasing 15% investment returns and think you're winning.

𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊 𝐓𝐎 𝐎𝐔𝐑 ₦𝟓𝟎𝟎𝐊 - 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗱

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻 (𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆)

Week 1: Set up a proper budgeting system that actually works for your lifestyle
Week 2: Build your emergency fund foundation (start with ₦50K minimum)
Week 3: Choose ONE financial education resource and commit to finishing it
Week 4: Pick your investment/business path and take the first concrete step

𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗹 𝘀𝗺𝗼𝗸𝗲𝘀, 𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗡𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵. 😂🔥

𝗪𝗵𝘆?

Because there’s only 𝗢𝗻𝗲 who holds that title; the One who was 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗱 and given a 𝗡𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲…
𝗝𝗘𝗦𝗨𝗦.

The Most High is not a vibe.
Not a mood.
Not a state of being.
𝗛𝗲’𝘀 𝗮 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻.

And His 𝗡𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 on earth, in heaven, and even in hell.

You know, there’s a level of blessing that makes 𝘆𝗼𝘂 great…
But there’s another level that makes 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 great,
𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 gone.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁:

When God wanted to glorify Jesus,
He didn’t just give Him a title…
Or a throne…
Or a crown…

𝗛𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗛𝗶𝗺 𝗮 𝗡𝗔𝗠𝗘.

Because 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗲𝗹𝘀; they are 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗸𝗲𝘆𝘀, 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿.

𝗡𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 👇🏾

God did something very similar with Abraham.

He didn’t say,
“I’ll bless you with more land and cattle.”

𝗛𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗶𝗱:
“𝗜 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁.”

The Bible even says:
“𝗔 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀.”
And it’s true.

You hear someone say, “This is Gucci,” and no one asks 21 questions. The name already carries value.

That name was built, invested in, protected, and polished, and now? It speaks for itself.
The 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘀𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗲.

Why?

Because that 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁.
With 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆.
With 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲.
With 𝘀𝗮𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲.
With 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻.

𝗦𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂:

👉🏾 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲?

Will your children wear your name like a 𝗯𝗮𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗿?

Are you living in a way that your children, and your children’s children, will say, “I’m proud to carry that name”?

Or will they be dodging it like bad WiFi in the village?

Will your name 𝘂𝗻𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺𝘀? or shut down conversations?

You may not have millions today…
But if you build right,
𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲, 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗿, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁—
𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗻’𝘁 𝗯𝘂𝘆.

𝗣.𝗦. Yes, that’s me in the picture 😄 grinning like someone who knows his name is being built on grace, purpose, and joy. 😄🎤

Whether I’m singing or speaking, just know this:
𝗜’𝗺 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝗲.

And I pray you do the same.

𝟳 “𝐁𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠” 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚 🇳🇬

(But Most People Overlook Them)

We all want something exciting…

A tech startup, crypto jackpot, affiliate win, or that one “online business” that changes everything.

But here’s the raw truth I’ve learned:

The quietest businesses in Nigeria, the ones everyone ignores, are the same ones printing money month after month.

They don’t look sexy.
They’re not trending on Twitter.

But they solve real problems, bring daily cash, and create real freedom.

So I made a list.
And number 7 honestly shocked me.

Let’s dive in 👇

𝟭. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁/𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴

Landlords (especially in Lagos) don’t want stress.

They need people to help manage their houses and tenants.

These are the guys we call House Agents.

The Numbers: Managing 20-30 properties can generate ₦500K-₦1.5M monthly.

Premium estate management can earn 10-15% of annual rent.

Why It Works:

- Growing middle class with multiple properties
- Landlords hate dealing with tenants directly
- Scalable without huge capital

Getting Started: Start with ₦0-₦100K for basic setup. Focus on estates or emerging areas.

Build relationships with property developers and real estate agents.

The Catch: You'll deal with difficult tenants, maintenance issues, and demanding landlords.

𝟐. 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 & 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

Pure water, bottled water, tanker delivery... clean water sells every day.

Clean water isn't reliable from government sources. People buy sachet water daily.

The Numbers: A small-scale pure water factory can generate ₦300K-₦1M monthly.

Water tanker distribution earns ₦50K-₦150K per trip.

Why It Works:

- Essential need (everyone drinks water)
- Steady demand regardless of economy
- Multiple distribution channels (shops, offices, events)

Getting Started: Pure water production requires ₦1M-₦3M startup.

Water distribution needs ₦500K-₦1.5M for a truck/tanker. Focus on consistent quality and reliable supply.

The Catch: NAFDAC regulations, quality control, and competition. But it's a recession-proof business with daily sales.

𝟑. 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐚𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐥 & 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲

Everyone uses gas, and they keep coming back for refills.

Set up shop in a residential area, add delivery, and you’re looking at ₦400K+ monthly.

(Just don’t play with fire... literally 🔥.) Adding delivery service increases profits by 30-50%.

Why It Works:

- Essential household need
- Recurring customers (monthly refills)
- High profit margins on refills

Getting Started: Need ₦800K-₦2M for shop setup, cylinders, and safety equipment.

Location matters: residential areas with middle-class families.

The Catch: Safety regulations, DPR licensing, and handling dangerous materials. But extremely stable income once established.

𝟒. 𝐋𝐚𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐲 & 𝐃𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠

People are too busy (and NEPA too unreliable) to wash clothes.

With good service, ₦500K monthly is realistic. Add pickup & delivery? Even better.

Why It Works:

- Time-pressed professionals
- Inconsistent water/power makes home washing difficult
- Recurring weekly customers

Getting Started: ₦500K-₦1.5M for industrial washers, generators, and shop space.

Target areas with young professionals.

The Catch: High electricity costs (factor in generator fuel), equipment maintenance, and staff management.

But extremely loyal customers once you build a reputation.

𝟓. 𝐏𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐅𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 (𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐬 & 𝐋𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬)

Eggs and chicken don’t go out of fashion. 1,000 broilers can generate ₦400K-₦800K profit per cycle (6-8 weeks).

Layer farming provides steady monthly income from egg sales.

Hotels, restaurants, and homes are always buying.

Why It Works:

- High protein demand
- Import restrictions create opportunities
- Fast turnover with broilers
- Consistent demand from hotels, restaurants, households

Getting Started: ₦300K-₦1M for small-scale setup (500-1000 birds).

Focus on proper housing, quality feed, and vaccination schedules.

The Catch: Disease management, feed cost fluctuations, and seasonal demand changes.

But with good management, it's highly profitable.

𝟔. 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥

Sounds odd, but try finding parking in VI or Wuse on a weekday.

Secure 20+ spaces and charge per slot. People gladly pay for peace of mind.

Event parking during weddings/parties adds extra income.

Own land? This is literally passive income.

Why It Works:

- Severe parking shortage in major cities
- Minimal ongoing expenses
- Security concerns make paid parking attractive
- Corporate clients pay premium for staff parking

Getting Started: Requires land ownership or long-term lease.

Focus on areas near offices, banks, hospitals, or shopping centers.

The Catch: High initial investment for land/lease and security. But it's truly passive income once established.

𝟕. 𝐒𝐮𝐲𝐚 & 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐬
I honestly didn’t expect this one to perform as well as it does—until I saw it up close.

Last week, my brother-in-law bought ₦20K worth of kilishi from a suya guy.

While he was there, another customer walked in and bought ₦200K worth—₦50K in four different wraps.

One night. One customer. One business.

Of course, that’s not all profit—but imagine how much that guy makes daily from consistent sales like that.

Now multiply that by 30 days.

You get the picture.

A good suya spot with small chops in the right location can bring in ₦150K–₦500K every month.

Add drinks and event delivery? That’s a local empire in the making.

Why it works:

- Nigerians love evening snacks
- Suya is culture
- High margins on meat
- Extremely loyal customers
- Very low startup cost

Getting started: ₦100K–₦300K for grill, ingredients, space, and basic setup.

Best locations? Near offices, estates, event centers, or nightlife spots.

The only “catch”? Evening/night hours, staying consistent, and basic hygiene.

But once people trust your taste, you’re in business for life.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲

Most people reading this will think, "that makes sense," and continue looking for the next big idea on Instagram or LinkedIn.

They'll keep chasing tech startups, crypto trading, or affiliate marketing while ignoring the boring businesses making steady money around them.

But if you're serious about building real wealth in Nigeria, pick one of these businesses and spend the next 30 days researching it properly.

Visit existing operators. Understand the real costs. Talk to suppliers and customers.

Because while everyone else is debating which online course to buy or forex strategy to try, you could be building a business that pays you every week for years to come.

Your choice: Keep chasing exciting ideas, or start building a profitable reality.

P.S. - I’m not just sharing these for vibes—I personally started one of these this year.

I know these businesses aren't glamorous. But the quietly wealthy Nigerians I know own the "boring" ones, while the flashy entrepreneurs are still struggling to break even.

Sometimes the best opportunities are in the everyday problems everyone ignores.
