Sincerely speaking, After my mum, my immediate elder sister (6years older than I am) happen to be the only two beings that understands and cares so much bout me that I know in this life. My elder sister happen to be someone I don't hide anything from, tell her anything that troubles me and meet her for advice and all. I remember while growing up, she use to buy me lot of things like clothes, watches, shoes, eateries and even gift me money when necessary and as she sees fit. Many times, when I was in School (Uni)she'll atimes cook for me, send me money even when I dont ask. Inshort, she's really sacrificed alot for me while growing even till when I was doing my service. The bonding I've got with her is stronger than what I can imagine, To the point that if I don't hear from her in two days I won't feel comfortable. mehn I just love her so much.

Now the thing is, I've got so many terrible mental conditions (if you've been following my thread you'll understand) that I feel it ain't safe to start a business on my own for now. My sister on the other hand is so confident, bold and in vogue, her street credibility is top notch and a jasi lady. I'm just bout starting life after NYSC and I basically don't know what to do or where to start from. the only thing coming to my mind is to open a shop for my sister and stock it up while I figure out what to do. I forgot to mention, she's seperated from her husband for some months now and she's back to Dad's house with us. Tho she's still doing one or two to get money but I just want her to be comfortable. I need y'all take or advise on this.

What are your mental issues if I may ask??

What are your mental issues if I may ask??

I lack confidence, quite very timid. I've also got problems with interacting effectively with people, I'm also suffering from Aphasia and people loose interest in me very quickly.

And who diagnosed this if I may ask?

How old are you?

Anyway I think you can invest in your sister. But with an agreement signed to avoid stories later

Truth is the way you sound, you might never be confident/bold enough to start your own business.

If I may advise, start gradually. Stock up a shop for yourself & employ someone to handle the sales while you handle the account & inventory for every sales(since you say people lose interest in you quickly). Keep a close eye on your business to avoid theft (I believe you can handle this)Over time you will learn from your “Manager” how to relate with people and make sales.
Part of the proceeds from your business can be used to support your sister’s business as a loan or gift(you decide but I advise you should be prudent with money).

This way you kill 3 birds with one stone. That is build your business, help your sister & gain confidence/boldness to relate with people and make them interested in you and what you do.

The thing is this, what if your sister’s ex comes back after you might have invested everything you have in her business neglecting yourself? I know you love your sister but the love for her husband might resurface and by then you’ll be shocked what they might say to you considering the fact that she is your elder sister

Its time to reward her

Just have a talk with her and find out what business will be good for both of you

Then you can go take it up from there
