9. Savings being wiped out
10. Lack of financial education being taught

- Quoted from the book, "Why We Want You To Be Rich" by Donald J. Trump and Robert T. Kiyosaki

Solving the dispute temporarily, a deal to postpone the decision over who controls the nation's oil wealth has been postponed.

But as Al Jazeera's Anita McNaught reports from Juba, this could spell future difficulties for the country.
