I can and I will: Great things come in good and bad ways (Success story of a youth entrepreneur)

“The world is round” has been a cliché since time immemorial but we seldom realize its truth unless we experience it ourselves. Nasef was just one of the many who could say that this cliché applies in real life.

Aside from his buy-and-sell of grains, Nasef saw another potential business enterprise, fertilizer lending. Farmers around their area, just like the many farmers around the country, were dependent on their harvest for their income. So they depend on business entities to lend them their needs months before their harvest time.

A drawback to this new venture though was that most of Nasef’s creditors were his relatives and most of the time he finds it hard to pressure them in paying up since they too have had it hard in life.
