Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for. Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. "You're not going to remember those expensive shoes you bought ten years ago, but you will remember every single morning when you look at your bank account that extra 0 in there. I promise, that's going to be way more fun to look at everyday", I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life too 🙏🙏🙏
Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. I learnt from my last year's experience, i am able to build a suitable life because I invested early ahead this time
I urge everyone to start somewhere now no matter how small, this is literally the time for that, forget material things, don't get tempted,i became more better the moment i realized this.
yeah investment is the key to sustaining your financial longevity but venturing into any legitimate Investment without a proper guidance of an expert can lead to a great loss too
Wonderful interview. She looks amazing for someone in her 80s! Her mind is sharper than a lot of people far younger than her. I’d love to sit at her feet and drink from that fountain of knowledge. ❤
Mrs Omeily-Nelson was the most transformational Postmaster General in Jamaica's history. She brought such great ideas by bringing the Post Offices to modern standard. Good to see her still keeping the flag high.
@@RajeevGuptaBBC I don’t see a video on the topic referenced in the comment above, Jamaica modernized post office system. If you don’t have a video specific on this topic, please make one. I haven’t seen anyone talking about how the post office operations are ran in Jamaica and why the locals have to pay the post office in order to receive a package when the shipping and customs fees were already paid by the sender from overseas. I do not send anything to my family through the post office from the U.S any more, I try to send items with other family members when the go home to visit, because the fee for the postage in the U.S plus the pick up fee in Jamaica is more than 400% than the cost of the item sometimes more depending on the item being sent. Furthermore, the locals cannot afford to pay the fee at the post office to pick up the package. Since Mrs. Nelson was the postmaster general in Jamaica, she would be the perfect person to explain why and how the post office operates in this manner. The cost is ridiculous to the point where individuals have created their own independent shipping companies for people overseas to ship items to their love ones for less, because of the immoral operations of the Jamaican post office systems. Thank you sir.
Blossom is the truth. Her financial mind is quite fascinating and brilliant. Love the fact that she doesn’t come across as pretentious unlike some of the hurry-come-up wealthy people in JA
This has been apart of Jamaican society since the 1970s. it was called "grass roots finance" when I was a child. My mom was a councillor and she initiated it in her community at the time and also she started a housing scheme in the area before she passed.
Earth Angel,,she is soooooo adorable..wwwoooowwww,,world class knowledge....may Gad bless her endlessly.....a real ANGEL,she looks 50..really remarkable.....🌺
Blossom is such a nice person, she was my former CEO at Post & Telecom. The first time I ran in her in the elevator, she said, I did not know that there is a female whose taller than me that's works here 🤗
Blessed night, just want to say this ,I am from Trinidad and Tobago my name is Blossom ,my great grandmother was from Jamaica 🇯🇲 and she had given my this name. I am very very happy too see that there is someone else with the same name.
I am a recently approved resident of Jamaica (from US). I love learning about the people of Jamaica and how things run here. This was a very interesting and informative interview with this wonderful woman. I will definitely be following your channel.
I know of a fact that Blossom O., came from a humble beginning. She took education seriously from her earlier days. God continuing blessing on her journey in this life!
Pure positive and abundance mindset. She is a brilliant mind. Glad for this bit of knowledge. More interviews like these should be done. It is a shame Jamaica can’t get agricultural technology right. Michael Manley told them the importance of eating from their own basket. She is living here life passions fully. Blessings.
Blossom on you comment regarding tourism and the fact that the tourists are control. Its a regular discussion among our household. You don't have this problem in other countries i.e Europe example been Spain/Portugal/UK/South America/ list goes on. Why then is tourism not benefiting our community. Tourism is very much a vital part of everyday life for many businesses in other countries and is very lucrative on many levels. Good infrastructure, road and pavement improvement, business premises up keep, good policing, all these things would make for a better life for local people and even more attractive to tourists when they come to Jamaica, we need a better tourist board, and a government that can make Jamaica vibrant place to visit, just look at Singapore it a mobile for Jamaica to fellow. And lastly education education
I am overwhelmed with the success of this Great Lady of the soil...in so much that she was my Phychology lecturer at Sam Sharpe Teachers's College from 1979 to 1981. A bright person. You have no choice than to learn from her. We need more of her in the place. She is not a day older. I love you Mrs Stokes then...Omealy-Nelson now. What ever there is, she is a best person a nd it is this lady. I really love her. She is blessed and young.
Wow she is in her 80! She don't look it. She was a geography teacher, a psychology professor, a college professor, a CEO at a telecom company, and a micro finance entrepreneur...the list goes on. Fine wine that gets better with time and a smart/hard worker who didn't sit on her laurels waiting to be handed things. Take note modern day women. She and Trisha Bailey and Michael Lee Chin have done is proud.
Wow! Blossom O'meally is such wonderful, inspirational woman. She highlighted, some great points, with regards to the development of Jamaica's struggling economy which was great to hear. May our Creator continue to bless her 🙏🏽
Very interesting interview and She’s so intelligent identifying the elements that’s affecting the small business community. She’s successfully at what she does because of the time , dedication invested to solving problems and a smart approach towards improving how businesses operates is to seek solutions for the shortfalls she spoke of during the interview.
Blessings. This is good. We need more interviews like these drawing upon the wealth of experience and knowledge of outstanding Jamaicans like Dr Blossom O’Meally Nelson. Many young minds need this type of counsel. It’s worth is inestimable. 👍
Interesting and informative interview...first time hearing about this lady, you can see she has a brilliant mind with tons of knowledge on the issues....and she is aging beautifully
That was absolutely beautiful. She was just oozing charm and sophistication and motivational energy. I can see why she did well instructing others on how to do well.
BLESSSINGS Dr Thanks for telling the people the truth very refreshing some will fall on deaf ears and if you can help someone as you travel lives way then your living will not be in vain
Amazing to listen to the speaker. I would love her to mentor my daughter a business major currently enroll in University in the US. In return, my daughter can spend her summer utilizing her business education to help the development of Jamaica. I would love my children to positive contribute to the development of the country of my birthday. My daddy always said Jamaica as so much potential…financial literacy, government policy, funding, auditing, law& order and transparency is so important. Not to mention…as said, change in mindset! Thanks for your service, improving our beautiful island.
She right about the money not getting to the people and how the tourist are being controlled especially the cruises to most of the islands and also Mexico, and the reason why is always blamed on crime..how can we fix this , even in America most of the money leaves the hood and ends up at the suburb malls, but even that is changing because of Amazon .. ect ect..how many Jamaicans in the country side are online and how is the wifi speeds, i have friends there online but mostly in the cities..
We had a fertiliser plant so why cant we go back to manufacturing our own Raw materials..? We need to do more manufacturong in our country to drive the working Class.. This lady have a wealth of experience....to push the elements of the civil society forward helping the poorer class of business people..
Yes ma'am.Having over 20 plus acres of land in Trelawny near Martha Brea. I can't get help to take my crops to the outside. Just saying No roads. The land is great for agriculture. Can you help me here. Thanks much.
They simply DO NOT want to get agriculture right because it is benefiting the business men/women who are big in import/export business. Same thing other islands like Trinidad, Barbados etc....ppl fail to realise that the Caribbean literally funded the building of London from sugar😉
You got it. It’s all a system. Michael Manley preached the importance of this need to be a self reliant nation. All the people wanted was the leadership that brought in foreign goods. It’s the same thing Castro worked on preventing in Cuba.
Use your financial fortitude and blessings to help educate Jamaican to recind, reject violence verbal and physical. Look after each other. Jamaica is a paradise there is the potential for a flourishing and economically stable society where non of the population is in want.
She was my Geography at Saint Mary High School.Her classes were lively, not boring.I am 67 years old.Gave a lot of jokes,so we always want to attend her classes.
Its great to see you doing so well Doc...I remember the days when you were my English teacher at St Mary High School in the seventies. You were one of our favorite teachers. Don't know what you drive now, maybe a RR but we remember you driving your Volvo.
👋👋 My profile is the first Bombay mango for the season. I think mangoes would make good brandy. I am delighted to see you on RU-vid as I know you were friends with both of my late parents. I would love to see you on Jamaica's most powerful people again😎🏁
A Jamaican Icon ❤ I would like to know if her parents were, The Reverend Omeily who served in the Anglican Archdiocese of Balaclava and her mother the pharmacist of the only drugstore situated in the town of Balaclava. If that's her I sure do remember the family. Very outstanding and well respected family in Balaclava St.Elizabeth.
Host & Subbs👋 Is that a parrot 🦜 in the background 🥰🥰🥰 he or she wants to be a part of the convo 😂🤣😂 Would love to live in my homeland, Jamdown…. but I need millions of 💰… Lord help me… Shalom✌️and Agape 💕
This is the kind of help we need from the UK, finance for microloans not a prison. If you have lucrative and honest means to make money you are less likely to commit crime. We dont trust each other because crime is high and just nature of post colonial effect to cluster in order to business in the same way the Chinese and Asians do for example.
Agriculture, grassroot level community per community, needs nuff people and someone who plans. We have an agricultural school, empowement and mentorship.
80 something!! 🤯🤯🤯To look this good and to have achieved such massive success, I know the Good Lord has been on Her side!!!!! May Lord Jesus continue to bless Her and increase Her more and more!! 🥰🥰
the lord help those who help themselves we must change the mindset stop looking for hand outs teach a men to fish that's the slogan for a great nation.
We haven't got agriculture right because the powers that be want us to depend on them, so if u notice the govt only pays lip service to agriculture. A case in point, one govt minister has 6 import licences and some of the things that are imported are grown in jamaica like onions. This results in a glut for the local onion farmer. But the govt is telling us buy jamaica
Jamaica have a lot of farm land but the Jamaican Government is allowing the Chines to develop and use these Lands for houses lots of gated communities I am seeing a lot of houses being built on lands that can be used for farming, and force the Chines to bring in food from China. We are going to be in serious problem.
U people really know the true meaning of microfinance . Stay away from it. U barrow 10 dollars repay 70 dollars and still owe 100 dollars. See who gets licence to operate such company.
