It’s not every day that you hear about a 18-old self acclaimed millionaire in Nigeria, especially with the current economic conditions. However, this is the story of Prosperity Olorunfemi, a digital marketing consultant who has made profits selling his skills and tech devices and is inspiring other youngsters to build and manage wealth through Rumoney.

Rumoney is a financial education-based brand that provides financial services based on the principle of thriving for entrepreneurs.

The now 18-year-old digital marketing consultant and CEO of ISellEarpods explained that his delve into tech and digital marketing was borne out of financial inadequacy and the need to step out of that situation quickly. The desire to get a good smartphone was a motivation that inspired him to pursue tech skills.

So I had the opportunity to learn digital marketing, content writing and graphics with my mom’s phone. When I had learnt, I gained a couple of skills and was able to raise money, with which I got a semi-good phone. It was with that phone I Implemented all that I had learnt and made money, and then I got a good phone.

The Brand since then

Prosperity Olorunfemi was able to identify a problem, turn it into an opportunity, and then capitalize on that potential to continue growing. “From then onwards, I have been able to create a brand. In fact, I’m currently in the process of branding the AirPods I sell. I also built a brand around it to include empowering students across universities by teaching them how to import and sell to make money.”

The Rumoney brand

Besides his business, ISellEarpods, his original business idea, Prosperity has expanded beyond just buying and selling. Now, Prosperity runs a brand that represents what he has become over time through growing in the business to representing brands that associate with him.
