He had previously told my brother to send the money into his account for him to buy the rod.My brother refused and told me everything because my brother understood how they do in my village.If you give those village boys or cousins money to build a house for youthey will embezzle or do a poor job.Na kernel them go use in place of granite which will make the lintel fragile.So we went to the seller together.I was the one who asked for the price of a 10mm rod.The iron bender now interject and said 4k before the supplier could speak.Meanwhile,it was 3400.Luvkily,one of the female cashier who was inside and saw us discussing with one of the worker who also supply to site,ask us what we wanted.I went inside and told him and she told me the actual price which was 3400 per one.I bought 17 rods for a 3 bedroom with a dinning room.This was late 2022 before the price increase.That same rod is about 5k now.Building materials Is very expensive in the south South due to yahoo boys building houses everyday.

Wow! Thanks for this great insight. One can even do surveillance to the market where these materials are sold to know the prices beforehand. This will help to negotiate better and to quickly spot any form of overcharge that may arise.

Thanks once again, I really appreciate it.

Yes,in the village because no government agency will come and ask for permit and no omonile.
You can source for a direct labour.I supervised one for my bro.Na my hand cash dey.No contractor.
Avoid township and Lagos.4M or less.
Boys go mould blocks for you.Na you go buy all the materials.One iron bender won connive with a iron rod seller to inflate price but I was wiser than them.

For educational purpose: "How did you get to know that they wanted to inflate the price through connivance?"

There is cash available. How much would you take at best? I'll message you on whatsapp.

Hello, nairalanders.

Please, I'm given the opportunity to learn one out of these two skills: Software Development and Solar, Electrical Installation.

Out of these two skills, which one should I go for? Any chosen skills will be learned for a period of five months.

So, in terms of job opportunities and others, which one would you recommend?


Thank you all.

Carats is gold electroplating, that is a ring coated with gold. It is measured in carars and not grams like pure gold.
It is quite durable depending on the amount of carats but, it will eventually wash and wear off over time.

Secondly, unlike real gold, you can't resell it for the right amount in the future if need be

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it 🙏

dawnomike:
You can not get a real gold ring for 30k. What you can get for that amount may be carats of gold not gram of gold.
For real gold ring, it depends upon the international price of gold and exchange rates for that given day. Just budget 150k to 250k depending on the weight you are getting.

Very insightful, sir. I really appreciate it. Is carats of gold would also be durable because I don't have up to the quoted amount you mentioned?

dawnomike:
It all depends on how many grams you are buying.

Thanks for your response. Please, could you give a realistic price based on the grams as you mentioned? Like for so-so gram, the price... And can one get a gold ring of 30k?

How much one can budget at least for a raw gold ring?

Please, I'll appreciate your responses.

Thank you.

Wow! You're very right. Do you have any experience or how I can go about it?

To the nairalanders, please contribute to it. How much is needed to set up a shop for selling POP materials? Also, is it profitable? Those who are into it should give insightful tips on this business.

Thanks. He said the one he has for sale is 3hrs plus.

Just like the comment above said, 300 - 400k or even more.
If you have space and not an 'on the go' person then go for desktop, you can source for the various components you need and build your own desktop workstation, that'll be cheaper. That's if you can't afford laptop of 400k. I'm saying this cos of the last thread you asked which laptop can be used for Video editing. To get a laptop that can run Premier pro, After effects efficiently, Omo na money oh.

But if you're building desktop workstation, shouldn't cost you more than 250k

Thanks for your input, sir. You're right about the price, but the seller said the laptop has three hours backup, which I deemed not enough. Maybe I was wrong. How long should a normal laptop backup last based on your experience, sir?

I got a message to come for an interview at Taidob College Asero, Abeokuta. I applied as an Account Officer.

My question is, would I also teach or my job is exclusively to the position I applied for?

If you have worked there before, please share your experience. Thank you.
