His ego is like that of martinez39s of the redpill thread,but its somehow sha because most men will prefer not to work for their friends. He should get him another job and not to tell him to work for him.

Why not? As a student, my friends will tell you, I do not hide it. I will work for you provided you can pay me my worth. That I work for you shouldn't bring about disrespect. Life is no competition and my objective is to do my best and leave the rest.

Well I see nothing wrong in working for a friend besides see finish , the moment a man asks a fellow man for money many times then see finish have enter already , he should dirty (the friend should work )his hands to oil his mouth.

I'd prob collect 10k and still drive it. Comfort and extra cash in hand, think of it this way, if tomorrow they need someone to drive 10 Cars again, who do you think they will call ?

You have to serve someone, before you become a boss. Besides most men will do it, the question should be you women, since you believe you queens are beyond such.

People come online to paint themselves as hero because, obviously, it's their story.

But I believe there are ways to put it to the friend that the guy would agree do it. I mean, it's your friend here, not just a random fellow.

The guy must have underated his friend along the line. Coming online to rant about it further proves it.

His bad behavior aside, no broke man should have ego.

Some people see certain things as beneath them but aren't ashamed to beg those who damn shame to do those jobs for handouts.

Smh, if the issue is he can't drive long distance or insecurity, other than this, he has no excuse.

Life is business.

It’s somehow working under your friend to avoid see finish but why asking for help regularly from the same person in the first place? That is tiring

Whatever prevent you from working with your friends - pride in this case, should also prevent you from begging them for money.

No ego when begging, but egoistical to work. Such friend should be dumped with immediate effect. I'll rather work for a friend, than a boss. With a friend, you can get away with lots of things, and he will overlook.

Also, only help people that need assistance to get back on their feet or start something, so they can carry their own weight. You don't help repeatedly, especially when it's not for the two reasons above. Or else they take your kindness for a fool, something Nigerians are specialist on.

I've come to the painful realisation that a lot of people you're helping is like pouring water inside basket. They are like the proverbial biblical story of the three servants that were given talents each to multiply.

Two multiplied their talents, while the third one keep giving all kinds of excuses why he couldn't multiplied his. And his master rebuked him. Keyword here is "rebuke", not a " reissue" of talent.

That story teaches that some people are like dead plant, doesn't matter the exposure to sunlight, watering and pest clearance, they won't grow. Arrogance, laziness and ego are deadly combination of traits a person should NOT possess.

So you should help, but it is the responsibility of the helper to verify that the needy is worth helping, and that you're not watering a dead plant. You spent weeks, if not months making money, you insult your hustle if you give it to someone that will squander it and keep coming for more.

These three things should not be part of the arsenal that forms your character or personality.

One is inevitable and probably not your fault. You must by all means overcome it to live a good life.

The other can be a result of ignorance, but once you become informed or aware of it, don't hesitate to make a positive change.

The last, you must make sure it is aloof from you so that it will not become your downfall.

I talk of these three things: Poverty. Stupidity. Arrogance.

The presence of one is a drawback.
The combination of two is deadly.
All three make you worst than a dead maggot.

Take care.

If I'm the one who offered and he declined I will cut him off from me.

Many of them litter naija, to work is a problem for them, they will be looking for office jobs at all cost, office jobs that are nowhere to be found.

.......when they are broke, they form very good and loyal boyfriend, and when guys that ready married their girlfriends ,they blame all women for that.

......... "Nigeria women are useless crew", when they, themselves are completely hopeless.....

Why do you think we have poor people all over.

Poverty is a mindset bound by laziness, arrogance and entitlement.

Poor people have alot of problems that's why they never go far. Poverty is a conscious or unconscious choice that bounds people from becoming rich or at least financially buoyant.
