Now this, I don't agree with. No less than Nigerians! What do "owanmbe" specialists do in Nigeria then? Beg, borrow or steal to attend dusk till dawn shing dings! Oh please! Get real. People who live in glass houses should never even touch stones not to talk of throw them! |

Nice article there bawomolo. This explains why the Jackson family is virtually broke these days:- https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-122364.0.html Very sad indeed. |

bawomolo: I agree that AA's have bad spending habits but my question to you is: Do you have any ideas on fixing this issue? or is this just to point out a negative? AA's have enough folk that can point out problems (and many of their so called leaders profit from that). AA's need people that can point out solutions, not the problems that everyone knows. |

bawomolo: I agree with this and think Bomani did a good thing in creating it. This would have a been a better post than what you presented before. Questions like: Does this make any sense? Does propose anything positive? Rather than just stating a problem that is obvious like you did in the beginning. |

Well african americans arent the only ones. Any way i study hard and work hard and save all of my money. My african guys friends buy what ever i need. Im not like some american blacks that spend more money than i have coming in. Any way why does a nigerian care what an african american is spending or saving? |

Eliza704: Turing this thread into a AA v. Nigerian, and who is worse does nothing to help anyone. It is just perpetuates nonsense and doesn't really allow people to talk about solutions. As I stated earlier, this thread would have been better suited if solutions were put out there and people could talk about if they would work or not. That is constructive. |

Any way why does a nigerian care what an african american is spending or saving? because the info is available for everyone to see duh. |
Re: African Americans Spend Much More Than They Save. by Eliza704: 11:36pm On Apr 08, 2008 |
Info being available doesnt have a thing to do with u caring or not. theres a lot of info available that has nothing to do with me, like the corruption in nigeria "duh". How is that my problem or business? any way just an example ok. Im not here to compare who is better or worse. I dont tear down different nations or try to single out groups of people. Thats being done without my help. |
