The Easiest Way to Get Rich in Nigeria (An Economist Explains) ft. Babatunde Akin Moses

Is Nigeria’s economy really failing, or is there something most Nigerians don't understand about how the economy works? With the rising cost of living, inflation, the declining purchasing power of the naira, and the growing pressure on businesses and households, many Nigerians are asking the same question: Is the economy getting better or worse? In this episode of **The Entrepreneurs Connect Show**, Joseph Don sits down with **Babatunde Akin-Moses (Uncle Tunde)**, economist, author, and Co-Founder/CEO of Sycamore Group, for an insightful conversation about Nigeria's economy, money, wealth creation, entrepreneurship, and the future of the country. We explore why Nigerians feel poorer even when economic indicators suggest growth, what inflation really means for your money, why the middle class is under pressure, and what individuals and business owners can do to navigate Nigeria's economic realities. We also dive into the business of lending money, why interest rates are so high, the difference between good and bad debt, common financial mistakes, and the lessons Babatunde has learned building Sycamore into a major Nigerian financial services group. *In this conversation, we discuss:* Is Nigeria's economy actually failing?
