Somebody sat down and finally let the money conversation happen out loud.

One story, in full

Olaitan O.

Today. 30th August, 2025.

I am a nineteen year old boy whose parents are civil servants and yes, I am proud of them but I don't want to live my life like them. We are one of those typical senior ranking civil servants family who are well off but aren't doing too good. We have want we need and some other wants but the only other source of income apart from salary is co-operatives contributions.

So they did thisTore my previous plan for my 20s and giving it a solid rethink with my new gained knowledge.

Things appear to be more clearer. I know what I want, what I need to do, and paths to tread upon.

Every number on this page began the same way, with somebody deciding to start.

The long version

The ones who told us everything.

Where they were before, what they did about it, and where they are now.

O.A.

August 2025

It was a great session which has really enlightened me on how to make compound savings for a generational wealth through buying of stocks. Thanks to Mr Isaac for been so passionate about exposing Nigerians to how to become financially free and for sharing his knowledge with us freely. And also, for breaking everything down for us to fully comprehend the teachings. Thank You!!!

So they did thisI just learned how to go about buying stocks this night. I've funded my bamboo app and I'll be starting by buying stocks

I know I'm on my way to financial freedom as I discipline myself to see through to this every month.

O.C.

Tonight

Oh my God first of all I’m so happy and won’t lie, the money I paid for this class was just a peanut it’s like where I just went to take beer and meat. The class was so filled with knowledge, wisdom, impact, etc. it’s a master class indeed. Like Damilola said, I AM A GENERATIONAL WEALTH BUILDER. Now and forever more I am so glad to this exposure and wisdom.

So they did thisI have started off by downloading the stock apps and making research’s already. I am in my way to generational wealth building

Soon I’d tell. I just got started.

Edidiong U.

August, 2025

It was beyond breath taking. I had a prior knowledge in stock but nothing compared to the new things I learnt at the webinar. Instead of "taking profits" as I usually do, I'm resolving to think long-term, hold my stock, reinvest dividends and reap the benefits of compound effect. Thank you again.

So they did thisI have deposited my investment for the month already. I'm resolving to monthly deposits to increase my portfolio.

Long-term is the goal. The results would speak soon, not right now.

A.A.

It's started this month of August 2025.

The moneywise masterclass was a session that I wished I had had a decade ago because with the knowledge I just gained, I would have been much more well off financially. The revelation and actionable steps are more than the investment.

So they did thisI have funded my naira wallet on my bamboo app and have committed to funding my chosen stocks monthly goong forward.

For now, it's a confidence boost that I am going in the right direction financially. I am excited about the potential of executing monthly.

Elvis I.

Right after the mastclass

It was wholesome. For a first timer listening to anything that has to do with stocks, I can say I'm pretty much confident about what needs to be done in relation to the stock market. Discipline, taking action and patience!

So they did thisCoincidentally, I received my monthly pay few minutes to the class. I'm taking about 70% to the bamboo app and getting myself some shares. As Isaac mention, "the pain of discipline is far more rewarding"

K.S.

Today

It was highly impactful, I learnt my money is a seed and I can send it on assignment. Also I was able to see that with discipline I can make life changing amount of money in stocks

So they did thisI have begin investing in stocks immediately and set my financial goals

It feels more satisfying

M.J.

August 2025.

The masterclass was well worth the time. I have been investing in the stock market for some time now. However, the insights around the 3-2-1 formula for investing and the overall look at the macroeconomic factors that affect stock prices were brilliant.

So they did thisImplement the 3-2-1 formula for diversification.

I hope to get a good balance and protect my investments.

N/A

It was an insightful session & a wake up call. Before the class, I had all my business & personal savings in mutual funds, however I am now moving some of it to try investing in stocks using some of the nuggets shared. Isaac is also a great teacher!!

So they did thisI have downloaded Bamboo and I am starting my Nigerian stocks investment journey starting with FCMB that just opened

Just getting started

August 2025

Not just the masterclass, coming across @theisaacola on IG is an underrated form of encounter. This masterclass beats years of going to our formal institution. I mean, all those years is just for one to have a meaningful life.

So they did thisI've registered on the bamboo app

I've made investments

Most of them started with ₦10,000 and no particular plan beyond beginning.

Worth reading slowly

“It was through Isaac I got to know about anything bank investment.”

Mbah posted this in the Moneywise community one morning. He had placed a fixed deposit with his own bank for 180 days, using what he had learned about how these instruments actually work.

What he placed
₦407,000,000
For how long
180 days
Interest earned
₦35,626,438
After 10% tax
₦32,063,794

“God bless you Sir Isaac. Will text you on IG where I met you to show my appreciation.”

Mbah V.

Now read it properly. That interest is 17.75% a year, which is an ordinary bank rate that anybody can get. The remarkable part is not the rate, it is the ₦407 million. Put ₦100,000 in the same deposit for the same 180 days and you would earn about ₦8,753 before tax. Same rate, same bank, same 180 days. Big money earns big interest because the money is big, and that is the whole lesson. Moneywise did not hold a naira of this and does not pay returns. What Mbah got from us was knowing the option existed and how it works.
