I must commend you sir, firstly for your courage and resilience against the challenges of life.

YOU ARE NOT LATE MY BROTHER, PLS NOTE THAT.

Now as regarding your issue... It is simple o.

First get into a REAL RELATIONSHIP (no time for games). The Lady needs to be working class or a thriving business owner who is submissive to you and ready to support you.

Next, understand that the 4.8 you have is PARTLY for BUSINESS and for wedding. so HALF IT. Let 2million be kept for the wedding. Whomever you will marry can add to it. YES.... at that age Ladies are more mature and understand that it is 50/50.

2 million is enough for a good wedding... YOU ARE NOT TRYING TO IMPRESS ANYONE OR CALL IN BLOGGERS AND PAPPARAZZI or feed 5000 like Jesus. See, 2million is even more than enough.

Next... KINDLY consider agricultural businesses and investments.... Also Kindly learn how to import and buy and sell online and offline. 800k is more than enough for BOTH businesses I just mentioned. GOATTI gives 30% every 6months. AGROPARK gives 70-80% on a plot for farming under 10 months. You can move your 4.8 to 6million with these and others based on your research and wise judgement.

Another thing sir is to BUY an ORIGINAL plot of Land from the remaining 2million, which is less than a million. NOT ON THE ISLAND O.
LAND IS ALWAYS AN ASSET and will always increase in its worth.

Uber/Taxify business can also help you sir, you can get a good car for less than 800k and begin doing it and being your own boss. There is no shame in such BUSINESS. This gives you 30K WEEKLY

Keke business is also lucrative, it gives you 25k weekly if you have a driver on higher purchase. A keke is currently 660-720k. TVC is the best brand.

You are a STRONG MAN and I salute you. Kindly NOTE that you have everything it takes for wealth, it is just a matter of time. 34 YEARS is not OLD.... you are still a youth. Kindly follow the little common sense I have shared and be happy the rest of your life.
NEVER WAIT FOR EMPLOYMENT... SELF EMPLOYMENT WITH WISE INVESTMENTS is what thrives these days o.

I wish you all the best.

N2m for wedding.. are u inviting your entire village

Nairaland family,

I created this account today so I can say my mind; I need your advice here.

I'm just few months shy of 34 years.

The issue now is that my mum is asking me to get married, (she's about conducting church deliverance service for me even).

Unfortunately, no job yet; I'm only hustling. Doing a few legal businesses to keep me forging ahead.

Now, I only have about 4.8 million naira; NOTHING ELSE!

I raised the money by working my ass off; doing only LEGAL businesses (graphics, web, writing), etc.

Now, the challenge is, business is not consistent because it's 99.9% online based.

But, I also wish to settle down now, in fact, before 35 years (when I was younger, I was hoping I would be married by 29). Alas! Life is not a bed of roses.

Also, I wish to further my education.

So, I need your precious advice:

If you want to advise me as your family member, close to 35 years of age, struggling, no job, but hardworking; do you think I should settle down whilst still looking for greener pastures?

Note: I don't have a fiancee or gf right now.

P. S. If you have any REASONABLE job offer for me, I will gladly take it as I am open for negotiations.

I can do any LEGAL biz or job, locally or internationally; including waiter, morgue attendant, etc, once the pay is 'comparatively' equal to the risk of the job.

Please, save a brother.

You seem like a hardworking man so this is my advice for you.

Never ever in your life refer to yourself as struggling ever again. DONOT DO IT!

You are a god (let us make man in our own image) you have the ability to create your life with your mind and your words.

"I AM" is a short word for god - so anytime you say I AM make sure you end it with what GOD is.

I am successful, I can do anything, I am progressive.

Find your self a woman that will push and motivate you - Not give you money o.

Work on your self esteem, meditate and visualise yourself in 6 months exactly where you want to be and i promise you that you will be that because it is law.

god is imagination - use your creative imagination and transport yourself but NEVER you use negative words on yourself ever again

Your Creator will help you.


‘Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I AM has sent me to you’” (Exodus 3:14).

Having such amount with you presently is enough for you to start a family

But its seems you are more interested in making enough money before settling down

Just try and settle down on time as you are no longer getting younger

So what you did to make 4.5 million is stealing and not a job?

Do you even know what "job" means?

Nigerians and shallowness.

Other countries are embracing freelancing and remote jobs, this one is thinking that until you wear clothes jump enter traffic, you no dey work.

I am not responsible for your thinking sir. You have your vision and aim, I have mine, you live in the village, I am travel outside the country often and I am most times in Lekki, so clearly we are different.

Dont come to the public space and expose your poverty level here. Aim for the best.

Please ignore that Lekki man saying you should use 2m for wedding! Wedding in Nigeria go wreck you and all the guests won't be there when things go South!..You think say 4million Nigerian naira na money? Wait until you start a family and everything go turn kobo...

Start a building project now!.. Anywhere you can lay your hands on... Complete your own house and break free from Landlord and Rent. Then you can move on to Marriage. There's nothing as sweet as your own housekeys... Na the money wey i get i borrow you so!

By the way, i didn't know that staying in Lekki can be added to ones Cv. So I've been dulling since undecided undecided

I think deep down you have self esteem issues. How will you have 4.8m saved and still be looking for a job?

Its as if you don't go round. Are you an introvert? Shy?

There are lots of businesses you can venture into. What's important is you need to change your mindset a lot.
