Even if I liquidate everything, I won't be able to raise 10 million naira now.
I just clicked 28 this month, considering I have just 2 years now to reach 30, what's the best way you think I can increase my score to 470 within a year or so.
Thanks

Ladies in the house please how easy and convenient is it to get a stylist in Canada that is good with natural hair? Especially in Newfoundland

I am considering cutting my hair before traveling as I wouldn’t want to be spending so much money on my hair as a student

SlowlybtSurely:


Join the club . It's not just the money, it's the associated inconvenience and stress. You can use wigs if you end up not feeling the short hair.

sleekcheek:
Wow, lemme charter plenty wigs before I leave. Thanks for the heads up

If you have natural luscious hair, you might want to consider putting it in locks instead of cutting it. You can always cut it later if you change your mind.

Knowing how expensive that would be, during the lockdown and while currently waiting for the travel restrictions to be eased, I went YouTube to learn how to DIY jumbo braids, etc..

Another option apart from low cut, wigs and dreads is crochet.

If you can at least weave/cornrow your own hair all back into 8 or 10 lines, just get a crochet pin and take already braided crochet braids or spring twists along and you're good to go in under 1 hour. You can buy the crochet braids ready made packs or just get the extensions and have your regular salon make them into crochet for you.

I'm on Alberta Student Aid but studying in Ontario. My classmates on OSAP have way more grant than I do. In fact, Alberta did not give me any grant. The little grant I get is from the federal government.

Hello house, happy Sunday.

I've arrived Canada and currently in my school quarantine in Regina. My next step is to get a house and open an account and get a sim card. Please I'll like answers for the following-

1. Kindly explain the credit card system to me and if it's compulsory or necessary.
2. Also advise on which bank here will favor me the most in terms of charges and taxes.
3. I always used to save with stanbic mutual funds in naija and spend after it has earned, meaning my savings account used to be empty most times, are there such options here?

I've read up on Google but I didn't really get it, so I'll really appreciate anyone to break it down in easier terms for me. Thanks alot team.

1. Compulsory to build your credit score, there are tons of videos on YouTube watch.
2, most banks have something for new comers. Try rbc or cibc.
3. No, most investments here have small returns like 0. 5% to 2% per annum. Which is basically a waste of time.
