Travel / Re: Japa: It’s Now Getting Expensive To Japa Through Student Route by VeeInsider: 6:52pm On Mar 03
Hello, what's the 3yrs STEM OPT?

goodman023:


The route to work authorisation isn’t straightforward like u said. Most people’s option is to do the 3yrs STEM OPT, which is a guaranteed work authorisation on its own , and either leave the country or find another way. Indians use this route and work and raise money for three years, pay the loan they borrow to get their masters degree, and some eventually leave the US with the remaining of their savings, as we all know H1B is more like a scam..

Thank you for your reply. I'll read more on these.

If you do long term, why don't you consider bonds, Sukuk bond offered 15%+
savings bond is also offering returns above 12%
the last FGN bond auction(though the minimum is quite high) offered 19%.

If you strategically invest in an equity fund when the price is low with a 5 years tenor in view, i can assure you that your return will surpass that of MMF.
Investment / Re: Mutual Funds by VeeInsider: 10:43pm On Feb 22
How please? I do only long term and I chose MM due to no knowledge of capital preserved alternatives.

ernie4life:


There is a better way to do that, you should be able to match your investments with a tenor that aligns to it.

Investing long term money is a short term asset is not the best way, because you could make way more.

But i respect your strategy.

I graduated from the University 12 years ago. Since then I have been jumping from one job to another with no progress in sight. I discovered that I have been stagnant for Years, so I decided to learn a skill.

I started by learning how to make footwear, I learnt that for a year but I later discovered that it's not what I want to do, although I can make every type of footwear even boots.
Last year I took an online course in frontend web development, for 6 months I studied for an average of more than10 hours daily learning from HTML and now React.js. I learnt figma, scss, CSS, Version control, jquery, bootstrap, Chakra UI and react.js, it was a tough one because I had to forfeit other means of making money. I got hungry so many times, I used my last card to buy data so I can keep studying and doing my projects.

Earlier this month, I finished by portfolio project, I had already worked on 4 projects using react, Jquery, Chakra UI and bootstrap. I designed coupled of web pages using figma.

Earlier this month, my girlfriend who's a data analyst sent me a link for a front-end developer role. In my mind, I didn't feel like I was ripe enough so I didn't apply. 2 days later, I decided to give it a try and so I applied. I was called to come for interview this Monday.

On getting there, the company was working on this revenue web app project they are doing to for a particular state government. I was asked to develop the UI of one of the pages using react, CSS and Tailwind. I have heard of Tailwind before but I have never used it.
I told the interviewer that I have never used tailwind and that I'm proficient using bootstrap. He replied that I should go through tailwind documentation and then use it to style the page on top of react.

So I started reading the documentation, I discovered that it's syntax is somehow similar to Chakra UI which I have used once in my project, the are the same concept of class utility. So I decided to start coding, getting snippets from the documentation and then applying my Chakra UI knowledge to work around it.

To cut the long story short, I coded from 9am in the morning and delivered the page by 5pm.

I was sent an appointment letter today. So my tech journey officially started. It's a junior role though but I'm glad I broke the ice.

The salary is what I have never earned in a month since I was born. 😊

Are there others that guarantee capital preservation?

ernie4life:
This year, try diversifying your investment to a more stable currency.

Explore balanced funds and equity funds this year especially if your investment horizon is between 1 to 2 years, they had an impressive performance last year and still hold lots of potentials.

Do something different this year in your investment journey and watch the results.

MMF is not the only mutual fund in the world!

GOD bless you for being a better person and choosing to do the right thing.

Right now there's an urge for you to show how endowed the girl is so you can freely speak of the type of person you rejected or declined. We understand this.

For your own good, delete this picture. You've done well by rejecting her advances and advising her. Nairaland is a public forum and her people will come for you once they see this her picture.

Health / Re: Can A Diabetic Foot Be Treated Or Best Amputated? by VeeInsider: 8:21am On Sep 24, 2023
We all desired his foot won't be cut off, the first hospital said it had to be cut off, another doctor said it can be treated.

We went with the option of treating the foot, the doctor started by reducing his sugar level and doing all that he could do, we had high hopes of his recovery until he went into diabetic coma, the doctor advised we use another hospital, we had to take him to another hospital and he died after 3 weeks.

This is my personal experience this June 2023, I lost someone so dear to me and we all desired the same thing your family is desiring right now.

Best will be to evaluate the extent of the damage, run the necessary tests and scan. DO IT ALL AS FAST AS POSSIBLE, avoid delayed tests and quack hospitals.

I wish the person a speedy recovery, whether amputated or treated. Happy Sunday

HomoSapiien:
There’s a brother of mine who’s been admitted to the hospital for about a week now. Man is pain.

He’s always been diabetic but the foot got worse this past week and he’s been admitted. Unable to eat and sleep. I’m really scared for him.

Doctor gave advice that the foot is amputated to prevent the spread to the entire leg, but his families are objecting to this saying that they’d prefer to treat him.

My question is, is it best to treat him or get the leg amputated?

What are the chances of his survival doctors in the house?

This is also my prayer. If something isn't done to prevent a reoccurence, then another visa ban might come.

Thanks. I understand.

You can contact me through the numbers on my signature or go to the stocks thread for answers to such questions to avoid derailing this thread because here the discussion is supposed to be restricted to mutual funds. Thank you.
Investment / Re: Mutual Funds by VeeInsider: 12:43am On Aug 05, 2023
Thanks for this. Regarding your last line, can you list good stocks that pay dividends and how often are the dividends paid?

I'm new to dividend paying stocks.

emmasoft:


Check my previous posts on fixed income fund particularly SFS fixed income fund which I'm involved in.

Most of the investors here tend to lean towards low-risk investment hence MMF is always discussed. Other funds like balance funds, growth funds, and equity funds carry more risk compared to MMF and fixed income hence most investors that will invest in such funds must have gained some confidence otherwise they remain with low-risk MMF. It's true that rates are low yet it's still better than leaving your money in a savings account. Remember it's a case of low-risk low returns and vice versa.

Another issue is the mode and duration of the returns on other funds, Some of them pay dividends once a year, and sometimes no dividends. The minimum holding periods of some of these funds apart from MMF are seen to be too long.

Personally, I advise my clients to invest directly in dividend-paying stocks instead of equity funds since it's practically the same risk involved.
