The ‘School of Hard Knocks’ is in Nigeria, and netizens on social media are loving the free masterclass on wealth and success at their doorsteps.
The man behind ‘School of Hard Knocks’ is Richard “Rick” Chew, an entrepreneur and content creator known for interviewing billionaires, investors and high achievers around the world. Through his street-style interviews, he breaks down complex ideas about money, business and success into bite-sized lessons for everyday people.
After previously sitting down with Nigerian billionaire entrepreneur Tony Elumelu, the popular content creator recently interviewed investment executive Adesuwa Rhodes, whom he described as the “$80 million woman.”
In the viral conversation, he asked Rhodes about the biggest money lesson she learned after managing more than $80 million in assets, how she handled rejection early in her career, common misconceptions about Africa, and the industries young people should be paying attention to today. The discussion also touched on faith and her belief in God.
For many netizens, his recent stop in Nigeria was more than just content, it’s an opportunity to hear life and money lessons directly from some of Africa’s most successful minds, for free.
