 By Tabitha Akor U17MM1132 The quest for financial success, instant results and affluence in today's society, has lured many Nigerian youth into what is referred to the " Quick Money Syndrome" A phenomenon that captures the impulsive pursuit of wealth, short-cut schemes, without considering the long term process of hardwork, discipline, patience and diligence into getting desired results.   A number of societal variables have contributed to the development of Quick Money Syndrome. Many people want rapid pleasure through money as a result of the pervasive consumer culture's promotion of the notion that success is determined by one's material assets.
