Lol. Calm your tīts and stop asking questions as if you were there when they handed him his paycheck. Thanks

Bird of same feather. I will let this slide.

Hey Zee, even $000100/pay check na money all na six digits.

kobe79:


what do u know abt high paying jobs in thr states??

ur answer will confirm wheda ur a yanshhole or the yansh itself

Bhella5:
Remember the Bible says Giver never lack. So try to stay within that tenet. We take care of our own, expecially family.

TXRunner:

Well, since you've decided to be her solicitor, I will dignify you with an answer. People make 6 digits in America. The first question she should have asked is what kind of job the person she quoted does. Doctors, Nurses (depending on the years of experience, and if they do overtime), IT professionals, people who work in the oil industry and some wall street people make 100+ or more a year....depending on their area of expertise and years of experience. A lot goes into taxes and 401K anyways, but 6 figures will be the salary reflected on the individual's W2 and tax documents. Ask the olodo if $100,000 a year isn't six figures?
Bolded, lol. I guess that question should be directed to yourself. Its been nice talking to u.

zeezahbee:
It seems you are blind Abi. Didn't you see the question I asked the man. I said what job does he do that he earn 6 digit. Why not allow him answer the question. Wetin concern Agbero with overload

You are a freaking dullard. So i was arguing with a low IQ nutter like you . Save bro

TXRunner:

Lol. Nutter? Dullard? Are those your nicknames? You asked him questions and i also asked you questions. you should not be mad. why do you wanna know the kind of job he does? How is dat ur bizness? so you can go and pm him secretly abi? OK, i understand You should have said dat before asking silly questions, fatso!

Help!! Friends, family, former school mates and others are killing me with financial demands. Everyday I receive facebook (fb) messages, phone calls, email messages and messages from other communication avenues from family members, friends close and distant, school mates I have not seen in 20 years but with whom I reconnected on fb, and even random fb friends (meaning I do not know them personally but somehow we managed to be friends on fb). They all have the same story: please send me money, anything.

Each month I send nearly 3k to Nigeria and they keep asking for more.

Do they think I pluck money from trees in America?
Do they think every Nigerian in America is doing drugs or credit card fraud to make money?
Are they thinking that since Akin or Emeka made it in America (in many cases by selling drugs and doing credit card fraud), I should also make it and therefore be able to satisfy their unending demands?

How do I explain to them that I have bills (auto, mortgage, water-sewer, electricity, gas, phone, credit card) to pay. And then I have to run my family (of 4) and fuel 2 cars, and on top of that, I have to save also for the rainy day - for when kids get to college.

I am able to resist the random fb friends because I do not have any personal connection with them, but how do I scare the ones I know off without sounding rude and unhelping? I know that when you stop giving, you become an enemy.
Help! Before a fellow nairalander runs amock on the streets of America because of pressure from Nigeria

Just for disclosure: I am well-heeled in the US mid-upper middle class, earning a 6-figure pay, holds a PhD, and involved in R4D activities. But I live in a US city (name withheld) where mortgage payment alone takes 25% of my monthly income. So you can imagine that after paying all bills, I do not have tons of money left over to give out on frequent basis.

Please advise on how to handle this, Naija style . Thanks

zeezahbee:
Like seriously can you read your post ? Waris your business ontop somone else headache. U didn't even allow the man answer me, what is your own Na He posted the shit because he wants people to comment, so why don't I have the right to question him. Vamooose pls

jaybee3:
You aren't being forced nor cajoled into turning yourself to Father Christmas.

Ask yourself these questions:

Would these people survive if I don't help them this one time?
How have they been surviving thus far?
Would any of them be of help to you if the tables was turned?

There is absolutely nothing wrong in saying No. No matter how much you give some will still be disappointed so what's the point in trying to help everyone and putting your financial future at risk (Your expenditure if true isn't matching your income and that's a disaster waiting to happen)

When i was in Nigeria i was hustling, busting my ass just to make #300 everyday , people called me all kinds of names,no one wanted to help me, no one fuccks with me.
No girl wanted to be my girlfriend.

Then, God answered my prayers & i traveled to America, those same people who called me useless & insane are the ones begging me for money now.
Though, i bust my ass here working, i make a very good amount of money every month.
I don't have a high school diploma but i make over $6000 every month.
I work for 5 days a week at $15 per hour.

I have many Nigerian girls wanting to date me.
Nigerian guys who called me useless begging me for cars & money.
I don't block them on Facebook, i only hide my presence on Facebook & chat with those i wanna chat with.

bros, the bolded does not match up. I assume that would have been a typo error, because even with 3 full time job with same hourly pay, u still won't earn $6000 every month.

shalom!

I am in the same shoe with you,I used to send slots of money to Nigeria before to friends and family, infact some of them will call you send me IPhone, Laptop etc, the Facebook am using before I have about 600 friends on it which is too much for me to manage, all I did was to shut down the account and open another one and I make sure I add only people I want like my old class mates ,friends here in Europe. Then I changed my mobile number with the New phone am using now which is my work phone is only know by my Company and people I do Business with, the other phone I dropped it in the Car or sometimes in the house and I won't even check it until after 3 days sometimes

What is important to me is my constituency which is my father and mother with younger ones all I told them is to always drop a voice mail,send text to me on facebook or my phone, I will surely read it and reply, then about Facebook you can never see me online despite the fact that I have just only 110 friends now on facebook.

One thing I have seen is that you can't satisfy every one which is a fact.
