lol, I get your point perfectly well, very correct.


But you know in my case, before I decided not to work again and ventured into personal business, I had goals, I had vision beyond the normal Nigerian trading business setting you see all around.

My mentors own popular brands u do see and hear about which I won't mention here, so u can imagine.

I sleep and wake up planning and thinking and brainstorming how to grow my company (not just a business) to be like these my mentors' companies.

I have an organizational structure, it is not exactly how I want it to be now, but I am still working on it so that the business will function smoothly even if I am not around for months.

And the sector my company is happens to be one of most sustainable and viable sectors all over the world with potential to go global if well planned, funded and with God's favor too.

I tell my staffs to see their job as a corporate work, at least some earn as much as most civil servants in Nigeria today. And I am praying to God, once my company monthly turnover hits 10million mark, I will start paying my staff 100k + and least staff 70k with full health insurance (HMO) and pension package so they will know they have a career future.

My future plans is to hire few staff and pay them well but they will work from the time they clock in till close of work, than hiring too many staffs that earn peanut which is the model many Nigerian companies operate to deceive government and secure government grants and subsidies, reason many Nigerian graduates are working but can't take care of their needs

it is good to be informed, if there is another life after this, I will be banker. Over and over again. I don't know the bankers you see, if you meet a shrewd banker, in the next life he would want to be one. Heard of the Medici' s they were bankers the Rothschild s were bankers. In this part of the world things are not that fantastic but ask a banker in Fx treasury sales if he would like to quit his job for an oil company ....

Iogobenz:
Yes.you are right!
I do a lot of research but distribution has a limit.
It gets to a point where it reaches and start imploding.
Reason I tried to MOVE ON so many times but I haven't succeeded in making that leap yet.harsh truth I must be honest.
I tried marine business.wanted to partner with someone who has a functional company already and bankroll some activities.
But dude proposed a model where I will sit back and do nothing while I wait for 5% ROI every 23 days like I am some housewife lol.
I almost want break the bottle of beer he offered me in that meeting on his oblong head.to me,any business that I don't get to participate in it's activities is a bad business.
I went into wood exploitation some months back too but i needed machinery to be profitable which I couldn't afford and will take a very long time for the business to get to that point,say 10 yrs and i wasnt that patient and i jumped ship.
But I have re-strategized what i know too well successfully and will have different results hopefully before October.
Still on the dream though,infact,i will dream of Tony today and i will be putting on his black tracksuit
no mind me.

franchasng:
lol, me I want to own more businesses and companies. I want to grow my brand to a global brand that will attract foreign seed funds.

I hate banking job sha, that's it for me, and i can't marry a banker, never!

You must have a reason why u love your banking job, but not for me mba lol

Aside managing my businesses, the only job I can do is heading a top IT firm like Google, Facebook, PayPal, Apple or heading the logistics department of a big logistics firm, that's all

calgaryFriend:
I can relate with you OP. For me I am outside of the country and I already made up my mind not to marry from outside the country. I have been meeting people online but after relating with them for sometime I realise the extent of how ignorant, materialistic and focus-less most ladies are.

I was following up with a lady last week, then I saw her whatsap status - ENU GBE, E FUN MI LOWO ENU GBG (i am broke, please give me money I am broke). What kind of human being comes on social media to write such trash ? People dont even have respect for themselves or their families.

WheN i WAS in school I was placed on minimum wage and I tried to live within my means how can people just begin to behave like peasants, so that pissed me off and I just cancelled that babe.

The next one was even a little promising but on 2 occasions I was speaking to her and she was speaking to other people, imagine chatting someone and they admit they are also chatting up to 7 people at the same time.

Then I rebuked the person and the next few days we are talking on phone and the person is typing and after I asked what was going on she said she was chatting with people while speaking with me on whatsap call, I did not even react, but I just cancelled her in my mind.

It is quite tough really, the quality of women out there is really very low, we just have a few who are young and have proper sense.

Goodluck as we continue to search...

knc:
that was how i was doing anyhow when i was with my girl few months back at a point i even dey bring woman for house and she caught me one day and dealt with the girl before i go come back my house don turn upside down.

should be seeing her parents soon.

My people wife no too dey like girlfirends o o o o o o
if your woman dey give u peace of mind hold her tight...

Op i pray u meet her soon.. goodluck

ladiesreject:
This is why I intend to start a serious relationship now that am young and jobless. Because as soon as I get a nice paying job, I intend to marry, as ""flexing"" has never been my kind of lifestyle.

But the discouragement I get from guys about my broke status coupled with the kind of lifestyle girls within the age bracket I want live, I begin to wonder if I will ever get ""LUCKY", cos marriage is about luck for me.

Parents of female children are also not doing enough as they don't give their daughters orientation about raising a family. A twenty years old girl for example is not ready to commit, she still wants to explore. What are you exploring?

May God help us and give us our spec of life partner.

funmisticqueen:
A man with vision and ambition like yours is so hard to find. Keep it up

AntiBrutus:


I have gone through my comments. What were you expecting everyone to comment on? Strictly how hard it is to find partners

Of course it is normal we touch areas that influences this difficultly in finding and keeping partners. This includes work, location, ukwu...etc. Please, chill, life isn't that hard.

Are you a perfectionist?

AntiBrutus:
Oh, I must commend the guys, in fact everyone on this thread. You all have been civil so far. I done learn something here.

Obviously the kids didn't invade this thread with nonsense comments.

Lalasticlala should consider this one.

truthsayer009:


Hmm is Ukwu a deal breaker?

AntiBrutus:


I have never been in an unhappy relationship. The extent to which I allow them influence me, is what differs.

Lol, what makes you think our problem would come from looks and money? Like that was even the basis of starting in the first place. Anyway, we would do the needed when we are ready for it.

AntiBrutus:


For some people, yes.

Are you also looking for a life partner?

truthsayer009:


Hmm why do you want to know?

AntiBrutus:


So you can share your challenges with us.

millionboi2:
we all know that Mr Man.....is just like to be a thief.



We don't want to be thieves? okay

Adakintroy2:


Even so low/high opinions. lol

Kwinesther:
I don't and will never beg, just saying hasty conclusions which we mostly do is wrong.

franchasng:
without ukwu, what else are u going to discuss in woman romance matter bikozie

millionboi2:
He is thief abeg or maybe him still dey school dey study banking

Kingsteve:
What can I say?
With this current unforgiving economy, I really pity the unmarried!
It will only get worse, if there isn't any drastic change.
Hold on tight...it's gonna be a bumpy ride!

truthsayer009:
funmisticqueen & franchasng wedding bells soon. Guys watch out

There is no relativity at the extreme. It only gets muddled up in the middle

Adakintroy2:


Maybe "extreme" and "relativity" should not be in same sentence for you seeing that Relativity itself opposes "absoluteness" --- which extreme concede to sought of.

I really did d not grasp all you wrote but I understand where you are coming from.
