You're living in a place you can't afford all at your sister's expense

Rent in Lagos is really expensive now. She doesn't mind and she will stay with me when she visits.

My sister in Houston just sent me N550,000 for rent. I work in a tax office where the salary is 70k monthly. She has really tried for me, I also got an iphone 7. She sents 70k monthly to augment my salary so at least money won't be a problem.
550k? is that for a year? which part of lagos? a flat or...?

Two is still fresh and you're saying you can't wait for 3 ,even GTA 5 of 7 years ago still doesn't have a successor, rd 3 is going to take at least 8-10 years.

So many entitled people here. It’s so disgusting. Who do you think you are to expect gifts? One got 50k gift for his wedding and he’s still saying God is the true giver. We’re you expecting 2 million naira as a gift? Are you not ashamed of yourself for being so entitled?

Go and hustle. This thread is disgusting.
People like you are your oversabi sha,the op asked a simple question and you're ranting, just keep mute if you can't relate bros.no qualms

Let me start my own this way, I know in this life nobody owes us anything but that doesn't mean our lives must always be about us and us alone. There's a blessing in giving.

I'm opportune to have an uncle who has stayed in US for more than 20 yrs now. He's a surgeon and one of the best in his field but the biggest gift I've received from him was 800 naira in 2007. Though he use to give me those big bargy trousers once in a while I still see the 8h as his biggest gift to me because trouser no be my problem.

Pls tell me your own.
Some persons don't give untill you request. Have you requested any thing from him and he denied you? Don't wait until he will gift you just tell him what you want. Ask and it shall be given into you.

Y'all got this gift of a thing twisted,I send him stuffs too and I don't even ask what he does with it,so the same thing should apply to me,it's mine to do whatever I want to,so you expect me to just pack it and be staring at it because it's a gift.

In other words the value ur relative placed o n you is way more above the value you place on yourself if you put it that way cos from all indication, its a waste using the high spec when you got the low spec Ok mayB next time he should send the low spec!
