Racism.
Imagine no one wants to talk to you because you are black.


Many of the men here think if they go there they will make friends easily. That's a lie

Let's practice...

We are gonna use Man A and a White lady as an example.

He is walking toward a while lady to start a conversation with her.


White lady: Who is this person gravitating towards me?

Man A: Hi, how're you doing?

White lady: Are you sure you are okay? Should I call the authorities on you?

Man A:. He says to himself, shaiii, I think say na so e go easy oooo...

You are worried about racism...ok...but you are worried about getting accommodation or buying a house in a predominantly white neighbourhood, you are not concerned about working with or being a senior staff in a place where most of the local workforce hate immigrants, you are not worried about not making friends at the local pub, park, mall or library !!!


You are only concerned with a white woman calling the cops on you when you want to ‘gravitate’ towards her?

Your problem is huuuuuuge.

shocked


Being away from my family (especially my mother) - I can't imagine her, staying alone with my "handicapped" big bro. I wish I could take her, everywhere with me, I feel so sad that I've not seen her for years.

I also fear for Africa, a blessed land with evil people, what happens if people like us that are supposed to make a difference, leave?

Thinking about this, makes me depressed.

Doyou2019:

But Nigerian culture has gone south too. Look at ill-trained kids all over the place and their chicken-head parents who should have no business raising kids in the first place.

Our culture is gone too, bro, so find another excuse grin


Anyway, make I shaperly answer for our resident urchins sha : It's the fear of losing their agberoism, laziness and penchant to gleefully support evil in a world that won't tolerate it. grin grin

Yes they have and mostly from the western influence

No matter how South Nigeria has gone it would never be way south like the westerners

- Starting all over
- Racism. How free can I ever be in a place that is not mine or at best where can only become mine based on a few pieces of paper they give to me. Anytime things don't go the way the indigenes want it, they tag me Nigerian born.....
- Cold
- Fear of not being able to be hard on my children when I am supposed to be. I mean, the concept of "no right or wrong" doesn't cut it for me.

Are you an American??

The gay thing,

I don't want my kids to become gay or change their gender, or queer, or refer to themselves as non binary, why will i be having a conversation with my son and I'll refer to him as they them? It's abnormal.

Settling in to a new culture and way of life.

For instance, in Nigeria, a man is responsible for most of the bills in the house. In Europe, both couple share bills. The man is also expected to assist in house work but may be cut some slack. Men will always be men. Some men are even househusbands.

Cost of accommodation is another worry. The best way to reduce this is not to stay in major cities. For instance, in England, no just near London. Rather go to some other cities. Even in Birmingham which is the second largest city in England, rents can be half as much as that of London.

In America, keep away from states like California which is expensive. Rather target Texas where accommodation is much cheaper





which Texas? it is cheaper than cali but not cheap by any stretch of the imagination. If you want cheap rent, go to them bible belt state, them dust bowls have cheap country homes

What do you do? tongue

Seriously though. You made a valid point. Nigeria is a good place to enjoy quality life for less. That is something I can't trade for any green card. People still survive on less than a dollar a day. You are a baller if you earn just $1k in a month here.
No tax, no billing.
I hope to hit your daily figure soon though
