How did your dad settle the fight??
What exactly did your father do -- which settled the fight...??
he called everyone to the main house around 5am then strated with bible reading and prayers, talked about everything that happened, then he said he's not calling us to find out who was right and who was not right that we should forgo everything then sealed everything he said with a Bible portion

Well like what has money got to do with family gatherings.
You are who you are and nothing else.
Find ways you can contribute, can you cook, find your position in the kitchen.
Can you slaughter the ram take joy in doing that also.
This has made children run from their inheritance, just because they want to level up.
Well it will take a bulldozer to take me out of a family gathering, even if I'm freshly released from Kirikiri,I go still show face.

So sorry. It does happen. I have seen lots of it. If you are the first son and not able to provide, respect will just vanish. I am not talking from the angle where younger siblings are richer than you. It is different. They may be richer but you are still doing well yourself, no problem....your respect remains. It becomes a problem when you are struggling and you are depending on handouts from younger siblings, my brother, na Oyo.
that's what's happening, not like i am not working but I got a loan for business so nothing remains from my salary at the end

The richest men come to weddings sit and the back , spend 15 to 30 minutes and when its time to spray and congratulate the couples , the shake hands and pass a thin envelope with 1 , 2 , 3 , of 4 million naira and exit , those with the most expensive clothes could spend 100k or 500k and no one know 4m naira has never been an issue

Wealth and privilege can insulate ones experience of how the world works and obscure the realities of marginalization. There is also some scientific evidence that wealth and privilege can reduce empathy and compassion for those less fortunate.

The combination of assuming everyone has the same rights, privileges and opportunities, ignorance of differential treatment/exclusion/discrimination, victim blaming and a belief that hard work is always a path to success makes it easier to justify the differences between people and focus energy on policy that helps those who are perceived as helping themselves or contributing to society (and ignore those who are not).

Before you argue about poor people who made it big - there is a big difference between temporary poverty and marginalization, so I’m not talking about the rags to riches crowd. Marginalization can be crippling, learn about it before you judge people it has nothing to do with tribe or region. When you are poor you become powerless and when you are powerless, you become desperate! This is psychology and not social studies.⁷

Successful people are not better, they don’t work harder, and they are not more deserving, they are just lucky.

Is he his siblings that made him poor? Stop misleading people with your stupid advice.

No sensible person will take this foolish advice from this girl, cos it promotes hatred, competition, entitlement and division among siblings.

y. Before you argue about poor people who made it big - there is a big difference between temporary poverty and marginalization, so I’m not talking about the rags to riches crowd. Marginalization can be crippling, learn about it before you judge people. When you are poor you gat no power, and when you are powerless you become desperate! this is psychology not social studies 😝

Successful people are not better, they don’t work harder, and they are not more deserving, they are just lucky. Imagine a scenario where in your wisdom you have a family project that requires maybe a million naira and your idea is super but you can only make a maximum contribution of 10k do you think your suggestion would overide that of someone who will provide maybe 800k towards the goal? Please understand the lady's point and let's stop tribalising this issues.


For me to see from the lady's angle you have to come with this write up that supports this lack of order. So,poor but intelligent older siblings has to be disrespected and ignored because their penury is of their own making.


I did not even indicate my tribe,but you already formed an opinion that I am tribalising the issue. Are the Japanese,Chinese,Indian,Korean etc tribes that gives reverence to their older but poor siblings tribalist too?

You start to disrespect your older siblings when the spirit of show off,pride and arrogance colonised your life. In my family I don't know of yours, your wealth won't make you dare to cross the line or expected to be bestowed with the family traditional chieftancy title ahead of your senior siblings that are not well to do.

That's already part of me. Not even when a fortuneteller told me to avoid family gatherings for my own good. They see me as a ghost if I mistakenly met one of my family member for event or anywhere, seems they fear who I have become.

Re: If You Are The Poorest Amongst Your Siblings Avoid Family Gatherings. by TheGift: 3:13pm On Jan 01
This advice is for people that come from families that do not value family. But place money above everything. As long as the person is taking care of their responsibilities and not begging or stealing ,why should they be ashamedly comparing with anyone, talk less of their siblings.

Thank God I don’t come from that kind of family. Everyone plays their part for family responsibilities, no one is looking to anybody else to take care of their own family business. Even though we know we would all contribute to support anyone of us in need.

You don't expect every family to walk in the same trend or lift styles as your family.

There are family who shares bond despite they are not equal.
Deal with your family issue, don't extend your problem to us
