So he and I went to a car company in Victoria Island yesterday and bought this brand new 2014 Range Rover Sport Supercharged. I bought it for N24million. Yeah, I know! Its a lot of money to spend on a car but I've been wanting this car since it came out...so...lol. But I swear I've been feeling so guilty since I bought it. I keep telling myself 'do you know how many lives you would have changed with N24million?" A lot, I know...but my life is important too na, abi? Lol.
Anyway, to make myself feel better, the September LIB giveaway will be bigger than ever...and I'm more determined now to start my #I'dratherbeselfmade campaign where I will mentor and help some young girls start their own businesses. Anyway continue to see more photos...
And yep, I still have my other cars...my 2008 Toyota Camry and 2011 Infinity FX 35. #Biggirlthingz. lol.
Now there's something I want to say to all the young girls reading this. There's absolutely nothing wrong with a man buying you things, but always remember that if you believe in yourselves and your dreams, you work hard and stay focused, there's absolutely nothing you can't buy for yourself. I'm not only buying myself cars that I want, I'm in the process of buying my own house, with my own money.
I made it on my own, in my own way and on my own terms. If anybody ever tells you that the only way you can make it in life is by lying on your back, the person lied to you. You don't have to do that. You shouldn't do that. You are strong, you are brave, you have been blessed with a talent, find yourself, believe in yourself, push yourself...and never give up. No money is sweeter than your own money, trust me. You can do it. Yes, you! You can do it. Just be patient, pay attention and work your butt off.
It's not easy trust me...if you think I had success overnight, you thought wrong. November this year will make it eight years that I've been blogging. Every single day! Before then I was a model, I was a model manager, I was an events planner, I was a columnist, I wrote a book, then I became a blogger. I put my hands in so many things because I was determined to make it in life. Finally one paid off - blogging.
I'm not better than you, if I can make it, so can you! Just never think the only option you have is men. YOU are an option and once you go to God and tell Him what you want to do and He sees that you are serious, He will lead you, He will guide you and He will make all your dreams come true.
Think about it, the people who are successful in life don't have two heads. Why can't you be one of them? You really can be. It's up to you.
Finally, I will soon start my 'I Will Rather Be Self Made' campaign where I will mentor young girls and also help some of you start your own small scale businesses by financing it...so look out for that. I will make an announcement on this soon.
Alright guys, going to bed. Cheers and thanks for everything. YOU guys changed my life. Thank you

Congrats
Linda na you jor.... balling like a baller
Congrats gurl, u worked hard to make ur money, so enjoy every moment of it!!!!!!!!!!!! luv d car
Linda, initially, I thought this was a show off but now I see your message, it's fitting and powerful. Tell them! Tell our ladies. I've got two daughters and what you're saying is how I'm bringing them up. Being male or female has nothing to do with intellect or potential for success...it's mostly physiological...mostly having diffrent plumbing systems. Women don't need to "sleep" their way to the top. You've shown it's possible...and I'm happy for you. Good on you, Sis!!
Congrats linda. charity begins at home. Since u have the heart to still help others i dont think buying a car for that amount is outrageous as long as it makes u happy.
Linda na you jor.... Balling like a baller
Yesssssssssssss am so happi for u didn't knw when I screamed out at abt 1:05am when I saw d post,God has really bless u am soooo happi for u congrat girl.
Congrats Linda ma. May God continue to bless the works of your hands... I totally agree with what you said above and i hope our fellow ladies will heed to it... btw, i love the interior of the car... congrats once again... yeah, b4 i 4gt, i lik d part where u said dt u sought ur dad's permission b4 buying the car... such speaks highly of the kind of woman u are... keep it up... damilolaadeleye@ymail.com...
Congrat on your success Linda I shed tears reading this.........linda ure an inspiration, you've inspired me again, mydream is to have my master degree overseas......nd I'm gonna work my ass hard till I can raise that money thank you once more for this and may the Lord crown this with a good Man to complement you.
CONGRATUALTIONS!! I remember reading the post where you said you wanted the Range Rover but your dad insisted you should find a husband. Major eye roll! But hey, parents just don't understand lol. So I am so happy for you Linda, not only did he give you his blessing but you also got the car!!! So once again congratulations! You earned it mama so don't feel guilty! To each their own.
Really happy for you Linda. :D

Congrats Linda.. All i can is Harkwork PAYS! Njoyyyyy
Great but you actually don't need 3 cars.. Get new toys and dispose older ones not accumulating them. Think of sowing into someone's life. That way you ll be blessed even more.
Linda congrats ooooooooooo. You are an inspiration to young ladies. I admire your hussle. You deserve everything you bought for yourself, because you worked hard for them. Please enjoy.
$24million and still living in the house I see at the background??? I have a lot of respect for u but I don't agree with u on this! $24 million could build u houses which are better investments. My bro built a 3bedroom bungalow with 6million and rented it out to tenants, there are better investments than cars and by next year a new model will come out and yours will join the old band wagon. All these your preamble and benediction is just to remove our focus from the fact that u cud have done better with that money even though it's yours, u could have bought a land or house for your birthday or build a house for The Lord or for less privileged ppl.and post my comment.
Congratulations, you inspire me, and I'm really proud of you as a Nigerian.
So happy for u...quite deserving

Inspired. Go get some paper in a legit way peeps.
Hmm Linda linda big congratulations! But the big question is are you celebrities truly passing across the right message! Are people still being encouraged to be doctors and lawyers rather than than this life of Bling we see! Are you truly a wealthy girl worth over 100M or this is just another yahoo boy stunt where people just try to portray them selves bigger than they are. I know many CEOs who cannot afford this Car o! they can scrap together 24M for sure! but cannot afford! it in the true sense of things
I love ur car so much
Congrats Lindiway.
It can only get better for you.
