"You're a savings savior." "Thank God you were able to spot this." These words from my LinkedIn family and a CFO I collaborate with remind me of my journey in the financial world. Over the past year, I've found immense joy in guiding individuals through their personal finance challenges. It's been a beautiful and fulfilling experience, knowing that a little support can propel people towards their financial goals. Recently, I formed a savings accountability group that achieved an incredible milestone – collectively saving over half a million Naira in just three months. This accomplishment reaffirms my belief that with the right encouragement, everyone can achieve their financial aspirations. I'm thrilled to be the driving force that propels them to success. The second quoted feedback, "Thank God you were able to spot this," came from a CFO I work closely with. My analytical mindset and meticulous attention to detail enabled me to uncover the root cause of a financial challenge that the lcompany was facing. I find solace in using data to solve financial problems, and I take pride in my ability to analyze complex information and present clear, actionable insights. Gratitude fills my heart for those who've entrusted me with their personal finances. Each person's trust is a testament to the impact we can make together. Equally, I extend my appreciation to the finance firms that have shaped my journey. From internships to close collaboration with brilliant minds, these experiences have led me to my focused career path. As Frank Nnamka, CFA, ACA, ACS recently told me, "You have a better chance in the investment industry given that you've already narrowed down your career focus." Thank you for the words of encouragement, Sir. As I reflect on these milestones, I invite you to share a memorable career moment with me. Your journey and experiences matter, and I'd love to hear about the moments that have shaped your professional path. #throwbackthursday #investmentindustry #financeandinvestment #becoming I a#20dayslinkedinchallengewithhaoma #linkedinforcreators

Advancing career in Finance

I stopped chasing the "perfect" career path. After high school, I took a gap year because I couldn't get admission to the college I wanted. During that time, I decided to explore new skills and interests. I completed certifications in Tally and digital marketing, which helped me understand different business aspects. The major transformation during that year, however, came from taking CA Rachna Ranade's stock market course, which ignited my passion for finance and investing. And no: • It wasn’t because I had no other college options. • It wasn’t because I got tired of trying new things. • It wasn’t because I gave up on my dreams. The insights from the stock market course led me to focus my college studies on banking, finance, and insurance. Once I got into college, I pursued these areas with newfound enthusiasm. After graduation, I took a short break, but family and friends encouraged me to start job hunting. I updated my LinkedIn and Internshala profiles and landed a job at Blue Lake Capital Management, where I wrote from gold-mutual funds. Since I stopped chasing the "perfect" path: • I became skilled in finance and content creation. • I got a job that combined my passion and my skills. • I had the confidence to leave Blue Lake and pursue my dreams. Leaving Blue Lake was a difficult decision—like choosing between pizza and ice cream. But I don't regret it. I know why I won't go back to chasing perfection. Now, I'm on a new journey in finance and content creation, and I can't wait to see where it takes me. If you're struggling to find your way, remember that sometimes a gap year can lead to unexpected opportunities. You don't always have to chase what's "perfect." Follow your passion—it’s worth it. 💖
