Quick Update from Young Entrepreneur in Ghana

I will have some more posts and interview updates in the next 48 hrs – but until then, here is a quick update from my Ghana Adventures.

Funny Question of The Day: Why are your lips so soft

Tip of the Day: Unless you have a lot of time to spare – it is best to avoid contact with the locals. It appears eye contact of any type is considered an invitation to start a long conversation, where do you come from, how do you come to be hear etc? Well, at least that is my experience.

There is a hotel that I have been going to eat in – it does a pretty good English Breakfast. The Doorman is a lovely guy – but he constantly is trying to be helpful, strike up conversation. For Example: “How are you liking Ghana” “What do you think of Ghana” “Wow a laptop, can I use it?” “Would you like to play golf“.

Of course it would be much worse if the locals were not so friendly – so that’s what I try to remember, when I am sitting in the Hotel Lobby trying to upload a post to RetireAt21.com – and having constant interruptions.

Did I mention the Ghanaian people love football / soccer and African Nations Football tournament is on at present?

Of course I did!

These people really get into it – you have to admire their enthusiasm.

The photo below is of a lady who lives very near where I am staying – she insisted I take a photo of her, all decked out in her National Colours

Until next time – KEEP PROSPERING!

   Awesome,

   There will be loads of life advice that you can get from these people. I would soak it all up like a sponge.

   Of course, there will be some people that are just being a pest, but it is worth taking the time to get to know them.

   Great photo, you are doing awesome Michael.

   PS: I would love to see some videos. Perhaps a video interview with the strangest person you can find.
