OLANREWAJU: THE MAN WHOM LIFE HAPPENED TO
OLANREWAJU: THE MAN WHOM LIFE HAPPENED TO
Let Me tell you a story about a young Man.
About Three Decades Ago, A young man was brought into this cruel World. He brought so much joy, happiness and optimism into their lives especially his Mum with so much expectations from Him as Her first fruit.
He had such wonderful eyes and a smile that could make anyone in sorrow to start smiling uncontrollably. He was really cute a shining light that everyone could see.
Growing up, He started slowly because he was ambidextrous and born with a rare type of brain that was so balanced and almost seemed like there were two brains in his head which took time to adapt as he was tagged as very slow and a dullard in his kindergarten but picked up in Nursery School.
Intellectually, He was way ahead of his peers and eventually spent just 3 years in Primary School due to Triple (Double Promotions). He skipped class thrice and Found his way into secondary school.
Need I remind you that he also had a photographic memory as he rarely and almost never forgets anything as things in the past always remains fresh in his head when triggered which was both a blessing and a curse.
Due to his rare form of intelligence, He rarely kept friends for Long, This was because they always felt Intimidated by it usually leading to envy, jealousy and the likes and before you know it. He ends up being alone despite the fact that he was never proud but was always kind and accommodating to all and always ready to help regardless of your class.
This scenario happened to him both in his secondary school days as well as his tertiary education days where he fought both physical and spiritual battles out of this misconception.
During his second year in the university, something terrible happened. His Dad was diagnosed of Stroke which took away the effectiveness of his left arm and leg. Being the breadwinner of the Family. Olanrewaju automatically became the Deputy Parent and started fending for himself, his parents and his siblings because his Mum had to start taking care of his dad and stopped working as they were both hypertensive. This was in 2011. This put a lot of Responsibility on him at a very young age.
Within 2011 and 2020, There was literally nothing He didn't do to survive in school and also cater for the needs of his parents and Siblings. Except Stealing and Hire Killing. He basically learnt almost every skill available and tried monetizing it.
From DJing, Masseuse, Painting, Printing, Serving for occasions, writing project, sound Engineering, Phone, Laptop & Gen Repairing, Marketing and a lot of undisclosed dirty menial Jobs along the way coupled with the fact that he still made sure he studied and graduated too. He was an All Rounder. While in school and after school, He helped a lot of students with their Assignments/Project/thesis for Final Year Undergraduates (BSC, DLI,ND, HND) M.Sc, MBA and P.hD. His Intelligence was unmatched as he was very good at what he does and a lot of people can testify to this.
I'm yet to meet someone who has experienced what he has experienced at his age which is why nobody will ever understand what he’s been through and what he’s currently going through
Olanrewaju is a Rare Breed of Human Being who had numerous opportunities to leave the country due to the gifts/skills he possessed during this period but decided to stay because of his Family.
When I say someone is rare. I meant it because Olanrewaju possesses the following gifts/skills and more and he can defend it anytime anywhere Anyday. He also Authored a book in 2017 titled "ALL ROUND KNOWLEDGE".
Below are Things He can do/Gifts/skills that he possesses:
Writing, Story Telling, Poetry, Copywriting, Singing, Songwriting, Dancing, Acting, Events Management, Entrepreneurship/Business Management, Health and fitness advisor, Data Collection and Analysis, DJing (He played at parties before as a DJ), Sound Engineering, Drumming, Playing the Keyboard, Playing the guitar (Acoustic), Electrical Works (He learnt it partially), Generator Servicing/repairs (to a significant extent), Painting, General Printing (Everything Printing related cos It's a family business), Graphics Designing, Animation (text, voice, cartoon etc), Web development (Backend), Teaching/Tutoring, Trading (Forex, Crypto, Stocks), Cosmetology (He can Make Soaps(liquid, Bar and Black Soap), Shampoo, Hair conditioner, Hair Cream, Body Cream, Body Oil, Carrot Oil, Coconut Oil, Dettol, Toilet wash, Hypo etc), Repair Phones, Computer Engineering (Basic), 3D wallpaper installation, Sculpture/pottery/ceramic works, Tie & Dye/Adire/Batik, Driving, Cooking, Baking, Photography/Videography, Mini and gadget Importation, Guidance, Counseling, psychotherapy, hypnosis(basic), and Karate (learnt for self-defense) etc.
Apart from being gifted and multi-talented. He was a die-hard hustler who never gives up which is why he was able to acquire so much skills. You will agree with me that it takes a lot of consistency and commitment to learn most of these skills.
Prior to 2019, He struggled a lot and was just a regular young man trying to make ends meet but then he lost all his savings to a Forex Trading Investment which pushed him fully into Affiliate and Network Marketing. Prior to 2019, he was doing it partially alongside other stuffs he was doing using LODUS ENTERPRISES as his Business Name.
However In 2019, He decided to Rebrand and Go fully into Marketing and get funds to setup Specific Businesses which has always been his ultimate goal (To Be a Successful Serial Entrepreneur). He didn’t want to be a Jack of all trade and master of none. He wanted Mastery one by one slow and steady.
That New Journey Started with NNU then BGFunds, Racksterly (the former one), Mulabux etc before The Era of Smart Contracts which started initially with Million Money in the early 2020 before Forsage ETH came to Life, Where he created a lot of Writeups, videos, concepts that converted a lot of members into the Team which was later named as Team Billions. He gathered as much as 100 ETH during this Period which Birthed His Wealth which wasn't questionable as it was legal Money.
Then He decided to Learn Crypto Trading and Forex Properly which he learnt diligently for a lot of Months and researched on a lot of good coins and after mastering it properly. He funded his wallet with heavy Spot bags and Held on to it prior to the bull Run that started late 2020/early 2021 where he accrued a lot of Wealth but His Move to the top was very fast which apparently left a lot of people in awe of the speed at which he was moving and he was managing everything well but was seen as proud to some people probably but nobody is perfect.
However, During this period, He took a lot of students crypto trading, technical analysis and DEFI, It's safe to say that a lot of good traders you see today started from his tutelage and upgraded their knowledge afterwards.
He was a kindhearted and very accommodating individual that was Free-Spirited who never secluded people regardless of their social class or status. He was always willing to help. He took a lot of free and discounted classes. Helped a lot of people financially, paid a lot of school fees and health bills. Paid for a lot of people to learn some courses they normally couldn't afford most especially when he created a Proteges Group called "THE 100" where he devoted and dedicated his Time to assist them with whatever they wanted or needed and he was true to his words. In his efforts to also help them financially, he also worked on a crowdfunding opportunity where he supported with almost 2 Million Naira for them to be financially Free that didn’t end well and was probably one of the greatest Mistakes he made in 2021.
In 2021, He handled too many things at the same time especially the Investment Platform (Larrybee Ventures) Larrybee Foods, Larrybee Farms, Larrybee Logistics, LV Academy also came to Life etc Which led to severe health Issues cos you can't outsmart your body System especially when it's given too much workload, It will eventually breakdown. It was Like Carrying A Range Rover on a golf Volkswagen car or a Featherweight trying to carry an Heavy Weight. Overtime, HE will definitely be crushed. And that was exactly what happened. It was just a tickling time bomb.
But during this period also, He gathered more enemies than friends as usual cos he was blossoming really faster than anyone could have imagined and his free-spirited life and kindheartedness didn't make him see how life was at the time until everything crumbled right between his eyes and he lost everything, Money, business, friends, loved ones even some Family. Everyone Left him when it mattered the most without understanding the scenario from his point of view.
Just Like Job In the Bible, Everything Happened really fast and was beyond his control but nobody could understand him nor what was really happening cos it wasn’t normal with different people having different opinions and beliefs about him and the scenario.
During This Period, He got into Debts running into 100s of Millions of Naira and First of All had to take care of his physical and mental health First, Shebi Na person way dey alive dey pay debts.
As at the time the investment platform crashed there was over 70M at hand (Cash and Crypto). He could have easily disappeared anywhere else apart from Nigeria.
But He values his integrity and Name a lot and wouldn't jeopardize it for anything. He started refunds immediately without proper planning/structure which was one of the reasons he found himself where he was today because that effort was unappreciated.
Despite the fact over 80% of investors was refunded. To some people, he didn't do anything and that's one of the misconception that has breeded a lot of issues and hatred towards him.
One thing a lot of people failed to understand is the fact that He could have Easily Created a new identity and left the Country like others but He was too Kindhearted to leave people hanging. He loved and cared too much about people. He ended up Converting Every Assets he had into Cash and Crypto and Started paying back Money He didn't spend until the BINANCE account which he was trading with to pay back investors was hacked. That was the last straw as it contained everything he had in life which was all gone within a flash.
He fought really hard to stay alive despite so many Life threatening Attempts via poisoning and being saved from assassination attempts and Panic attacks on the main road where he collapsed multiple Times. Even when betrayed by people, he still forgave some people who still betrayed his trust again which explains why he has severe trust issues and doesn’t trust anyone anymore. People are wicked. But Nobody cared enough to understand and genuinely assist. Back to THE 100, Which was the most painful, Out of THE 100 Proteges, Only 5 actually genuinely stood by him out of 100 People he genuinely decide to give his all. That thing really broke his heart to pieces.
Despite all these, he still somehow managed to stay Alive and Instead of Requesting funds from People, He took loans to setup LV ACADEMY with the hope that once money comes in, he'd be able to continue refunds cos he's the type of person that values his integrity a lot but didn't want to disturb anyone for financial help instead all he wanted was for people to support his Project but He was Really Misunderstood alot till Today and He Didn't get the much expected support rather he got a lot of curses, threats and the likes but he couldn’t tell people about it.
He loved seeing the good in people and gave a lot of benefits of doubt but he never got it back in return instead he was judged, Persecuted, threatened, despised and left to die by those he loved and cared for especially his close friends and partner at the Time. He consistently battled depression, panic attacks, hypertension and Watching over his back cos there was no one to trust.
After the LV ACADEMY project wasn't forthcoming and he still had interests to pay coupled with threats still coming in from debtors/investors.
He still didn't request for help from anyone. Instead he got extra loans again to fund a trading account and also partner with some silent partners to create ELEV8 which is another very good project by all standards and stroke a deal with the partners to get some funds based on members that gets access to the free COURSES created by Him as part of the benefits from Joining which is his major contribution as a partner in the Project but still The Hatred, Misconception and Lack of Support Continued which led to a failed suicide attempt, reoccurring cardiac arrest and panic attacks at a young age which wasn't healthy at all couple with so many depressive episodes due to the fact that people were still after his life which meant he didn’t have much time anymore to settle people.
As at the time this Autobiography/Memoir was Written, He Believes He's been on his own for too long and still being castigated, judged and hated for Sins he didn't commit and things he didn't do and despite all efforts to keep pushing, making things right and proving that he has been misunderstood which is probably because most people just want to sit in the sidelines and some don’t want to digress from what they already believed initially. Things don't just fall the way he has been expecting and as such He's been struggling a lot in silence financially, physically, mentally and emotionally.
He is Tired, Exhausted and Wants to Rest as he needs eternal Peace Which Can only be found in heaven. There's a limit to what any Human being can endure and despite His Kindheartedness, Generosity, Intelligence, Empathy towards others, Business sense and every other great things about him. He still got paid evil by almost everyone he loved and cared about.
So before it deteriorates into Madness, Bipolar Disorder or further severe Health Issues that will put his family into a state of unhappiness or sorrow. He decided to write so that After He's Gone. It will Always be on Record that He tried his best. His best wasn't just good enough to people even though he was drowning in tears and hurting in silence for so long which is why he always wished he died on the 14th of June, 2021 when He first Collapsed and was Unconscious for some hours.
Everything that has a beginning must always have an end. There's so many more that couldn't even be put into writing as this Autobiography is just about quarter of everything he's been through which is why no name was mentioned during this write-up.
IT ALL STARTED WITH THE ETHEREUM EARNED DURING FORSAGE WITH NO HELP FROM ANYONE. THAT WAS HIS STARTING POINT. THAT WAS THE MONEY THAT BLOSSOMED INTO EVERYTHING HE BECAME. HE USED IT JUDICIOUSLY BUT LIFE HAPPENED TO HIM.
It's with tears that I finally complete My Memoir that the Beautiful Journey is finally coming to an End cos I am really really really tired and exhausted. I hope one way or the other. You all move on from this sad story. A lot of you have moved on already though LoL. It's just sad that there might not be Olanrewaju Junior to finish where I Started.
And If I somehow manage to survive the rest of the day then It means My Work in this world is not yet done and I will laugh this off many years to Come cos I will never try this again and work harder with or without support. And If peradventure I don’t survive the end of today, then It means my work here on earth is done. My impact on lives will surely be remembered one way or the other. And to those that came through one way or the other, you know yourselves, I won’t mention names, GOD BLESS YOU cos you’re part of the reasons I stayed alive this long. And to those that messed things up, betrayed my trust and switched up on me as well as those that sat in the sidelines just watching. I FORGIVE YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART.
And by the way, I am tired of hearing words of hope/advices without actions and support. Please save those words for my farewell/Wake-keeping ceremony that’s if I have any. Goodbye.
Thank You all For Reading till the end. Hope you learnt a thing or two from My Story. THE END.
