My mum helped me out. She was giving me N20k pocket money every month and I was also selling mary kay powder, perfumes, roll on etc (all products provided by her to keep me busy) after selling, she'd tell me it's my money and that I should keep it. What would I have done without God and my mum? In Davido's voice "life sweet die"  2 Likes |

Used the money I saved while serving to open a cloth business. My father gave me some quarters in his shop to display my wares! Still hoping for the best! |

Five months after service & still job hunting. Truly,my mum and my aunty have been of immense help. After my aunty weekly business account, my allowance is sure. I use that to keep body & soul together,especially, my bbm subscription. I just thank God my babe is working...(no disturbances or unnecessary expenses)....Still hustling! |

Mine s a lng story but im tanking God sha...... somone we just met accidentally 4years ago has been my messiah here in lagos ...though i have rich n influential uncles here but nin s accomodating...all dey say is go for ur post graduate first..like say na stone i wan take buy form pay skool fees..meanwhile my dad went bankrupt cos of one of dem n has to go settle down in ondo some years ago. Dis man has accomodated me ever since my service year in june...just me in his apartment mostly cos he works mostly n travel to abuja often...as if its nt enuf he will still call to tell me to go collect money frm somone if im brokee dat he will know how to send d person money .but still its not easy cos been alone too s a burden ...i do tink excessively atime.plus my parents too r supportive anytime dey av dey do send me cash.i just know its God n hope to get job soon 1 Like |

thank God I found this thread... Was thinking am alone in this... Worked for about since month after my service then quit cos of "family-related" reason... Since then, being jobless and broke...well i thank God for my parent and my "elder" ones, realy supportive. Though am not the type that like collecting money from pple, bt atleast, it gives me hope knowing that they will be there for me when in dire need of finance. Feels realy bad any day I wake up and remembering some families, friends and relations that I have been helping right from my sch days in need of help, but I dnt have the resource to help them. Makes me feel as though I have failed them and failed God for not meeting up to my responsibilities... Right now, I have a business that am setting up, but capital is realy setting me back... In all, I thank God am not the 1st issue of my family... Else... 1 Like |

Its been 8 months now and I hope not to count further, very depressing, but I thank God for my Mum and my "younger" bro, that guy has been like an elder bro and a father to me, I can't really help but say it out, and I know there is no way i can ever pay him back because he has really done so much for me and he is so respectful, I so much thank God for him and I pray God to bless him beyond measures. My Mum too has been so good to me, even giving out my CV to people she don't even know. God bless her. I thank God for his mercies and I know one day I will smile best. 3 Likes |
