"First week of January 2024, I had set up my SafeBox with a daily amount to AutoSave. All I needed to do was make sure payments are made to my Opay account from my shop so there's funds available to AutoSave daily. Interestingly, I started with a small amount for my daily savings and adjusted to a bit higher amount sometime within the year.
"Opay does not only help you save, they pay interest on your savings and from my little savings, I got interest of N29,013 for the year. The interest is just the icing on the cake for me. For me, the SafeBox helps me to save towards specific targets, helping me not to be a burden on anyone at all."

Consistency is the key, says Tom Alims

In a separate chat with Legit.ng, Tom said he was able to solve a problem because of the money he saved.

He said:

"Saving helped me to achieve some specific goals. It made it easy for me to raise the needed funds to accomplish the goals I had planned for from the beginning of the year. I strongly advise those who'll want to start saving to give it their all. They should be totally committed to saving a part of all they earn and on a long run, they'll have build up enough funds to help then execute projects they never imagined you could without being a burden on anyone."
