BimboKomolafe

Hello! My name is Bimbo (aka FCBK) and I am a finance professional with over 30 years of experience. My interest in offering financial education to others comes from a deep desire to financially empower and reduce financial dependency by many people living in Nigeria, where I reside. I believe if people are educated and equipped with the right set of skills and knowledge, they will make informed decisions on their money & financial resources. This will help them become more financially fit and ultimately financially independent.
