EVEN TECH BROS GET BROKE!
Listen to this Insight
<span class="html-content"> <p>You'll agree with me that the world has changed and technology has been one of the major drivers of change. The nature and content of jobs have changed drastically and some jobs are in jeopardy of becoming defunct with the advent of Artificial Intelligence. </p><p>The need to learn relevant skills and tech skills has become more pressing. </p><p>I'm sure a child somewhere would probably say during career day that he or she wants to become a tech bro/sis! Well, that's cool but is that enough? </p><p>If you think learning a tech skill would solve all your money problems you're in for a surprise! In the words of Professor Emmanuel Akpe, your skills won't make you rich. You must learn the business of the skill. </p><p>My variant is "what shall it profit a man if he gains all the skills but can sell it". </p><p> Can I get an Amen! Lol. </p><p>You must prioritise learning the craft of selling if you want to earn from your skills. "Selling is the bridge between Learning and Earning". In its absence other skills don't count. That high income tech skill may earn you peanuts if you don't hone your selling skills. </p> <p>Learn Unlearn Relearn </p> </span>
