Funke grew up in what you'd call a
lower-middle-class household. Her father was a teacher at the
government school and her mother was a petty trader.
Together,
they earned just enough to take care of their basic needs and
keep a roof over their head. Despite these unfavourable
circumstances, Funke was able to get a university education and
get a job right after school.
The job paid okay and
required Funke to move far away from home. She quickly rose
through the ranks at work and was earning fairly well.
She
was taking care of her siblings’ education but still had enough
to spend, save and go on the occasional vacation.
After
a while, Funke realised that she needed to start planning for
her future and for when she would not be able to work again.
She
had fallen victim to Ponzi and MLM schemes in the past and she
was determined not to make that mistake again...
