The more a man simps, the less a woman respects him and thus the less attractive she finds him.

But the more a woman simps, the more she endears a man and the more he likes her.

Men appreciate submission, women don’t.

I don’t make the rules, I merely note and observe them.

I think you are right.

Electrical fittings - lights/lamp holders, sockets and switches.

Mechanical fittings/fixtures - toilets, washhand basins, sinks, and other kitchen/bathroom accessories.


Depends on the type of handrails. For stainless steel handrails, install after tiling. For welded handrails, install before tiling.

Thanks so much for your response.
I believe wrought iron handrails is included in welded handrails you mentioned.
Why do you suggest that it should be installed before tiling unlike in stainless handrails ?

In the near future a lot of countries will require block funds for living expenses and will ensure your whole tuition fee is paid before coming.

Germany has been doing that for years now.

Amakababe:


CAN I GRADUATE WITH A FIRST CLASS STILL?
Tell me the honest truth, I can handle it.

Pls who knows how many percentage of final cgpa the first year performance takes In futminna


Well, I understand your worries. We were all there before.
We all hoped for first class then until second year results were released then we started praying to even graduate sef.
To cut the story short, you can't make first class with such start

It will even take a lot of work from you to even make 2nd class upper.
I know you might not understand what I am saying but things will become clearer if you manage to stay in the course until 400 level.
But just remove first class from your dictionary for now, it's not for you.
Aim at 2nd class upper backed up with extremely serious work, otherwise you might not even get 2.1 if you continue like this.

This is just the hard truth.

If you didn't understand the English I typed you need not have responded.

All you had to do was show me a Muslim who has do something similar as stupid as what the OP did with Islam . You won't find it

But some Muslims kill people while shouting Allahu Akbar.

Why bringing religion to this?
Religion / Re: As A Christian Is It Possible To Practice First Fruit In This Harsh Economy by Basalt(m): 9:45am On Jan 14
LilMissFavvy:
Pay your tithe and forget "first fruit". First fruit is not compulsory.

Lol, as you believe in giving 10% of your monthly hard earned money to your pastor who is by far richer and well connected than you, another brainwashed individual also believe in giving their entire January salary to their pastors in other to have a successful year. So there is no difference here.
Both of you are still in the same manipulated and brainwashed boat.

All these are the product of religious manipulation and brainwashing which will probably be removed when one travels and lives in a developed society and see how things work.

The gullibility of Nigerians have made politics and religion the two most legal ways of making money in the country

Politics / Re: FG, TUC Meeting On Fuel Subsidy Removal Ends In Deadlock by Basalt(m): 12:30pm On Jun 05, 2023
Acidosis:


Increase minimum wage and price of products? Sounds like a dum.b idea -- like pouring water in a basket.

The last increment in the minimum wage from N18,000 to N30,000 made people poorer.

The question is was it sufficiently implemented?
Increasing the minimum wage is not the problem but implementation both in the government and private sector

Acidosis:


Increase minimum wage of 2.12 million public workers (federal, state and local government workers)??

What should happen to private sector employers who are already struggling with fuel increment? Assume you're an employer, how are you going to manage the double burden of fuel increment and salary increment?

Very simple. Increase the price of your product.
In Germany, when minimum wage is increased, even the private sectors must comply with the new increment or face the heavy wrath of the government.
Family / Re: What Percentage Of Your Salary Goes For Rent? by Basalt(m): 7:03am On Apr 30, 2023
Pussykills:
Please I need sincere inputs. Those leaving with someone, please don't derail this thread. Just read an learn.

I'm planning on relocating to new area in Abuja but I'm really confused if 20% of salary is too much to pay for rent.

Where I currently stay lacks some amenities and I pay 10% of my salary for rent.

What percentage of your salary goes to rent? How much do you think should be the ideal percentage of salary for rent??

I think the right percentage would allow for proper saving to allow one build his or her own apartment.

Thank you for your responses.

Whenever you must spend 30% of your income on rent, then you are paying too high.
Move in to a cheaper place

How I can be envious of who I have nothing against in person.

Envious of u that have no rest abroad.
To shock u further,two of my brothers are in the medical field (very accomplished ) medical personnel's and yet I didn't boast of them earlier.
Abeg Pack some where.

Las Las,always advice people based on their need. Be specific and don't deviate as usual of many of u.

Omo, wetin carry your brothers enter building discussion? shocked shocked
We dey talk about building costs, and I gave my own little advice based on my own personal experience,
vuum, you carry your bitterness come dey quote me dey say dey open office for my head without knowing the details of the building in question and the extent the construction has reached.
As if that is not enough, you started shocking me and announcing publicly that two of your brothers are medical doctors and well accomplished.
What has your brothers being medical doctors got to do with the topic at hand?

U are making conclusion do u also know the size of building or land the guy is looking at for. U just want to tell us that u earn in foreign currency and then.

Keeping quiet would have saved u this hoax and fake lies.

Typical Nigerian who is claiming to be better than Nigerian living in Nigerian must be senseless...if that is the way u view everyone.

Well,next time,advice based on the guys 10million not your bogus and fictitious figures.


I can see your pains right now
You are simply envious and bitter grin grin grin.
I can bet that you didn't even calm down to read all I wrote but was carried away by envy and bitterness.

Probably you are ignorant of the current price of building materials olodo.
Go inside the market and price rods and cement and check the prices of trucks of sands before talking below the current market price or better still focus on your area of life and stop talking trash about what you dont know

Na julius berger dey build the house abi which one ?

A typical Nigerian is always like that, I wont blame you.
In life don't be fast to make a conclusion on something you don't know until you see details
which includes the design, the size, the quality of materials used etc.
These things are very important before jumping into conclusion.
But irrespective of the design, it is extremely hard to build and complete a duplex with less than 35million naira right now.
Including railings, tiles, glass windows and protectors, doors, plumbing pipings, electricals, POP etc.
I am just telling you the truth

I feel your cost is quite high, but I think it depends on the cost of materials and cost of labour at the city where your site is located and the taste and design of your building.

Not sure if this includes the amount you bought the land and and land settling issues, if not hmmmm. Belike the person handing your project is building two houses (a duplex and a 4 bedroom bungalow)at a time, one for him and another for you.
grin cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy
How much do you think is enough to build a duplex even in the cheapest part of Nigeria?
Ask any person that built a duplex recently or any honest Engineer you know (though most engineers will reduce the price for you in order to get the contract)
Also check the current price of building materials in any location in Nigeria.

Yes its possible. But most factors plays a vital role. Let me advise you on this. I am sure N10m can finish your building if not all, finish all interior work including painting and tiling as well as POP works. You can leave the exterior work in your next budget so you can concentrate to achieve it to your taste, including external works which are interlocks, kerbs and landscaping.
Please sir, kindly tell this guy the truth. I can bet that 10million can NEVER do all these things you mentioned using that plan you posted.
