That is one day i'll never forget in my life and all the drama that followed.I started working on the 17th of that month and by the 24th salary was already paid though mine was prorated but damn, it was big money to me back then,i immediately called my younger sister and zoom we are in phone shop and after that we bought ourselves some cool cloths and like play play the money is finished but when i came back home after the shopping spree my Dad was so upset with me for blowing such amount of money within 12hours that i had no choice but to run back to my hotel accommodation to cool off and the poor girl calls me to give me update from the battle field.

Ojeilevbare: It goes to church

...Why not give it to the Poor (or a Charity Home) instead of enriching an already-rich Motherf'ucker who calls himself "Man-of-God"!

Rukemi291: Most of us have earned a first salary somewhere, atleast, for every new job we take. No matter how small it was.

I remember cooking for the 'almajiris' in my area and loading credit for my family and friends with a protion of my first salary (stipend) from my first job ever.

Recently, i heard that in a certain culture, you should take the whole first salary to your parents for blessings, then allow them take whatever they want from it and let them tell you how to spend the rest.

So, i just want to ask, how really did you spend your first salary; or how do you spend your first salary (for those that have worked in several places).


oh my first fruit offering, i remain gratefull toGod

Re: How Did You Spend Your First Salary? by aweleokolo: 3:30pm On Nov 22, 2012
I gave my very first salary to my father.

He prayed for me and blessed me. smiley
Then he gave me some of it to keep and some to take to church.
Then he shared the rest between my sister, brother and mother.

It was just 30k but he was soo proud.
That was in 2007.
Today I'm 10 times more.
Blessed.

I really didn't send any part of it home to my parents because it was N18,000 in 2003.
I made sure i had break fasts and dinners at Mr Biggs since i was obviously starving at my sister's place whom i squatted with at the time and kept the rest for taxi fares to office till i earned the next salary.

When peeps say they gave their monies to God, what do they mean exactly? Do God need money?

eddy18: First Fruit.
that is the real thing, any real christain must give God his first earning as first fruit. It has biblical origin in Exodus, after the God led Isrealites out of Egypt through the Red sea, he commanded His people to dedicate every first thing that opens the womb to Him whether man or beast or fruit . In our application today as modern Christain, first fruit is our very first salary or the first amount we earn frm a promotion in our offices. This is a covenant of perpetual blessings and prosperity and it is an acknowlegement that all we ve all came from God!
