How my dad lost the chance to own a Santana car- business approach

If you are old enough, you'll know that the Volkswagen Santana used to be considered a trendy car in the mid eighties. In fact, some people called it santa bobo.

My dad had a Passat and a Ford Marina but he then wanted to get the Santana to replace the Passat (which was fine but about 9 years old). We were all excited that our dad was going to get a trendy car.

Believe it or NOT, a brand new Santana was just 12k then. However, when my dad decided to get his, the price rose slightly to 13k.

The extra 1k made my dad postpone the purchase for just a bit. But guess what?

The Babangida administration introduced the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) and the price of the Santana rose overnight to...

...a hundred and something thousand. The new exchange rate multiplied the cost of things by over 10 times.

And...

That was the end of the Santana story. My dad NEVER bought one.

My point?

If ONLY my dad had just bought the Santana that day and paid the extra 1k, he would have had a brand new Santana.

Moral of this story?

Don't delay till tomorrow what you can do today. That's how many people lose great opportunities.

I know many of you are interested in the BIG DEAL and Bumper Deal. Some of you have already told me you want in.

You know what?

I'll advise you to go ahead and do it already because delay can cost you opportunities. For example, your bank's network might be down on the last day or you might send the money and my bank is down. A lot of simple things can make you miss the deadline and lose the opportunity or pay more for the same thing
