How I Lost My First Million Naira Due To Peer Pressure

I'm still quite young so I saw it as an achievement when I made my first million naira last year November, I had earlier on planned on saving it in hard currency as I grind for more so that time will not waste it but around that time, naira started depreciating so I changed my mind, December last year my guys were already pumping their cash in dollars, most of them bought around 1200 but I had made up my mind I wouldn't. They were fuc*ing on my neck, gee your money dey go, gee dey there while we dey multiply, gee na you know oo, naira has no more value, I was adamant because I for one didn't trust the sharp increase. January came, February came, naira was depreciating further but I already made up my mind even with pressure from my guys, they were having huge profit. What made me change my mind was that I usually buy rice a cup for 150, I went to the market again and they said 4h, fu*k, everything was now x2, I now realized my money was wasting, I told my gees and they were like its not too late, this thing will reach 3k per doll, I pumped in my naira at 1900 plus, that same night, not exaggerating oh, that particular night, I started hearing naira has started appreciating. Opor, my gees withdrew at 1700, I didn't want to do anything out of fear so here I am today, if you calculate with the current rate you'll know my losses. I just cross my mind say I don fu*k up. I consider that cash now 0, now I'm starting all over again, on the road to making my first million a second time. God help me ,mbokmodified: yes, it's no mistake, it's in crime section, it's a crime, all my gees dem should be serving time for robbing me
