Everyone saying business is business and all that needs to answer me this question.

If it was her own blood sister would she also request payment like she is asking from her husband right now?

Fine the baking ingredients are expensive and it shouldn't be free but is half payment not ok enough being that it's her husband that is paying?

Well one thing is very sure in the whole matter, his wife doesn't like his sister that much and even with full payment some other problem will later arise in the course of training... Even neighbours dey consider each other to some extent so why is she acting like the lady is a total stranger to her

Karleb:


Toor! Even friends!

People even teach strangers for free just because they like them.

Infact, money should not be a reason the woman shouldn't train her in law in this case.

The matter just dey annoy me sha.

Make e no pain you buddy.. some people are wired differently..

I can just imagine her kids going to her aunt's house in future... Which happens to be this OP's sister...


Nephew: Aunty how come there are no meat in this food...

Aunty: U say?... If I remember your mother, u no go even ask for a cup of water in this house...

My younger sis just rounded up her NYSC, she told me she would like to learn how to bake cake and other small chops like chin chin, puff puff, donut, egg rolls, sausage rolls, e.t.c.. from my wife. Indeed my wife a pro in baking.

I told her that's not a problem, I will inform my wife about it. I even told my sister to come over to my house this weekend because definitely she would be staying with us.

When I discussed it with my wife she said my sister would have to pay, that she's not running a charity organization... I was really mad at her.

She said she would collect 100k (for 6 months learning) from my sister, and she is doing that because of in-law stuff... That I should go and ask her clients currently learning in her school how much she charges.

I offered my wife 50k. She rejected it, she said it won't be enough to buy baking utensils not to talk of baking ingredients. Mind you she sells baking utensils and ingredients.

She also said she issue her clients certificate when they're done learning, she refers customers to them as well...

Please note: I have invested heavily in her business, Infact it was my money she used in starting up her business. Yet she refused to help my sister even with the 50k I offered.

Please is this proper? Is she being greedy? It's really causing serious problem between us. I'm so angry. My younger sister is not even aware of what is happening right now.

You better pay. Business is business. She is transferring knowledge and clientele, yet you want to pay 50k? Less than $100? We haven’t even added time and raw materials to be used.

Do you know how many family members she knows? If all of you come and pay 50k, shey the business would live to see its 5th birthday like this?

Another thing is, making people pay helps to keep them on their toes. They would want to get value for their money and as such they would be committed to the learning. When it is free, you see them strolling in with their useless and dusty slippers by 11am.

If at all you insist on paying 50k, make her see reasons with you. That you provided equity doesn’t mean you should ruin her business with your personal sentiments. Next you would bring your sidechick and price 20k.

I just bust laff @ the bolded. Your yeye full ground this year and this is just Quarter 1 of 2022.

You ladies can be so biased. Your husband's money is also your money, but your money is only your money. If it was her own blood sister would she also request payment like she is asking from her husband right now

My husband’s money is not my money. Please don’t use your father’s experience to judge me.

Thank you

VOsimhen144:
Baby girl calm down, don't be rude. I know you ladies will always debunk that statement. And besides you haven't answered my question?

pocohantas:


Who are the ladies that would deny it? Is this not the same Nigeria where you men concluded ladies are greedy and selfish by their utterances? How then do you know we always debunk it when there are many of us that say it with our full chest?

The assumption that we are all soft on our siblings is only in your guys imagination.

VOsimhen144:
on this particular case, if it were to be your sister would you ask for payment? And if YES, would you reject that 50k offer from her?

pocohantas:


Yes I will.

Now you can rest.

VOsimhen144:
I rest my case. I've gotten my answer. Now, Here's my judgment

Poco baby, you're 100% biased.

pocohantas:


Of course any discerning human would know your questions were not out of genuine curiosity but to ferment trouble.

Your judgement is your prerogative.

Kobojunkie:
How you take know say the 100K no be already half payment?

pocohantas:


Since you two communicate well, how about you ask her why she is so adamant? Honestly, 50k is cheap.

Fred166:
Honestly, I don't want my sister to learn somewhere else, when I know my wife is a professional.

My wife delivers cakes to chopping malls, if i even disclose what she charges for ceremonial cakes and small chops you will be marveled. And she has customers who are willing to pay because you're gonna be so enticed by her work.

I've invested in my wife's business so much, I also motivate her, she rely on her regularly customers, so I do motivate her to get more customers. (this is where her laziness comes in, she ready stay house frm morning till night watching TV) so I do motivate her to be hardworking.

Yet, she can't do a little favor by accepting my offer. Mind you I've the 100k but I stand with 50k.

How will my sister feel, if I tell her to go learn baking somewhere else?

baby124:

What if your sister is her only enrolled student at the time? So she will do it all for free? When she can be using that time to do business.

pocohantas:
You and this your wife sha, una reach to start series.

In your previous threads, you said she doesn’t take her business serious, that she only knows how to watch Zeeworld and Telemundo. Well, she has started taking the business serious.

This right here is a good attribute of a business person- DO NOT ALLOW FAMILY AND FRIENDS RUIN YOUR BUSINESS WITH CHEAP BARGAINS.
