Being relatively wealthy in a poor country is very different from being relatively wealthy in the West. For me, being relatively wealthy meant that we had a car. And we, certainly up until I was about 13, we had running water. After 13, we stopped having running water. And we could occasionally, but not very frequently, travel on holiday. But we didn't have electricity a lot of the time.

So it's an experience that comes from just being in a poor country, that even when you have a bit of money, you still experience life like people who don't have any. So no electricity, eventually no running water, lots of fuel shortages. But I was never hungry. So that's what I mean by that. And you're absolutely right.

A lot of Nigerians who do leave the country end up doing well because they have left a system that holds them back. and go to a system that allows them to flourish. And that's why I'm so interested in what is it that holds people back in one place and allows them to flourish in another. And it is not just money.

It is many of the things that go with culture, the attitude to entrepreneurship, whether you live in a high trust or a low trust society, it's a very low trust society. You get a lot of clan behavior, but it is also, it's a very competitive place.

So if you grow up in a very competitive culture and you then live in a place where competition is allowed and is allowed to flourish, you will very likely do well. And I think that's one of the things that explains the fact is when people look at the look at the demographics.

So I think that if you live in a place, if you've come from a country that is very competitive because there are limited resources, Because there are not enough jobs to go around. There's not enough university places. So you need to be very academic. You need to be, you know, very hustling in your behavior.

And then you then move to a place where you don't have those barriers, but you still have that culture. You are more likely to succeed. And I think that that is what explains some of the success of, I think it's West Africans, not just Nigerians. But I suspect as you see more and more lower skilled migration, I think you will start to see those improvements
