HardMirror:
I won't lie, wonder how this op made money in the first place. He lacks creativity and he is not the type that plans well. It is obvious he lacks skills too. There is nothing that will make me pack shit when there are lots of ict and content development jobs I can do.
You all talk as if it’s just that easy to land a full time job ib the UK. Who will even offer you ict job when you’re not on Tier 2 or good number of years working in a related field.

pls stick to 2ce ur disposable income if u can
3.5k pounds for holiday. They do not like this in most cases and feel you are being ingenious
I am not sure I get you. Twice of my disposable income is about 8k(income after tax). Or do you mean twice of what I spend monthly which should be about 3k

Thanks for the response. I intend to get an introductory letter from my employer and have them also confirm my vacation date. If I should reduce the number of days, won’t this raise any brows on how I intend to spend the remaining number of days. I can reduce the budget to 3.5k GBP

Opeyemi007:
You should try reducing the days and the budget. When you get your visa, you can decide to spend twenty days or more, it shouldn't be a problem. £5k would be deemed too much for a three-week visit unless you earn more than that monthly, and probably have a shitload amount of verifiable funds in your account.
Thanks for the response. I intend to get an introductory letter from my employer and have them also confirm my vacation date. If I should reduce the number of days, won’t this raise any brows on how I intend to spend the remaining number of days. I can reduce the budget to 3.5k GBP

Talking about verifiable funds. I intend to only provide my dom account since that’s where I receive my salary. I also have a normal account but it has a lot of inflows and outflows so I intend to put that away. Is that a wise thing to do?
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by benjijosh(m): 10:06am On Jul 11, 2023
thelma76:
Budget is 5k pounds ke? How many days are you staying and are you travelling with family? I honestly think you should budget 2500-3000 max and reduce number of days you’re staying if you are a single applicant. Remember UKVI doesn’t know where you would eventually be flying from and if you have a discounted ticket so just because websites say tickets may cost you 1500/2000 isn’t enough to quote that as your flight budget. Even though the budget seems okay compared to your DI and monthly income, I still believe you should revise downwards.
I plan to stay for 17days and the 5k GBP is the total budget for the trip including my flight tickets.

I’m applying from Nigeria and I will also be traveling alone
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by benjijosh(m): 12:48am On Jul 11, 2023
Please I need help to answer this question correctly. I am applying for a visit visa and Intend to just stay at any AirBnB close to wherever I would be visiting.

In the application I see:

"Give as much detail as possible of where you intend to stay, for example in a hotel, private housing, or with friends."

Answering with -> An AirBnB sufficient.

Also, I have read on few pages here about the budget of the trip too high or low. My budget is set at 5k GBP (includes ticket) and the total amount I spend in a month is set at 1.5k GBP Monthly income is set at 4.3k GBP Do I need to review?

Thanks

EducationIs There Any Scholarship Management System by benjijosh(op): 7:43pm On May 14, 2023
Does anyone know a scholarship management system where an account can be opened for a specific student in a Nigerian university and a lump sum deposited to cater for the monthly stipends and school fees of such a student throughout their stay in the university?

Jobs/VacanciesRe: My Incompetence Just Cost Me A Job, I Feel Worthless by benjijosh(m): 3:20pm On Mar 15, 2022
Supremedrizzy:
Someone gave me a simple job of making an existing static site template responsive within 24 hours and I blew it. A simple task that should take few hours, it looked all good on my localhost only to test it on netlify and it turned out to be a disaster. I'm just so ashamed of myself.

I've been learning web dev since mid last year though its been a case of one month on three months off, I've been grossly inconsistent due circumstances beyond my control. I haven't even coded this year because I come back from my menial hustles with battered bones and weak muscles. You can imagine trying to code after offloading a trailer load of cement all day. I even had to use bet shops around for the gig amidst the pangs of hunger I felt while working coupled with the noisy and distracting environment I was working in which contributed to my legendary blunder.

At the age of 30 and unemployed I've always seen programming as my way out of poverty but it seems I'm not good enough. I'm painfully watching that little flicker of hope fizzle out before my tearful eyes. Which other skill can I dabble intohuh product design?? I suck at designs reason why my frontend skills is below average... should I try backend?? I'm just confused, frustrated and down casted not knowing the next step to take while time is no longer on my side.

Life currently has no meaning and direction to me, I just seem to be flowing aimlessly with the flow. My situation is giving me sleepless nights and I now rely on drugs to sleep for even three hours a day.

I really need someone to talk to, I'm really tired of trying to work out things on my own. I'm 30, broke, lonely and depressed, single has been a constant in my life's equation cos I don't even like myself for who I am presently so I don't expect someone's daughter to like me in this my miserable state.

Someone should please show me the way, this dark tunnel is fast turning to a maze that I can't navigate on my own.
Hey man, don’t feel bad.
Some will go wrong, some will go just fine. It’s all part of the game.

7years ago when I was just a newbie trying to get my bearings too, I felt this way if not worse but today, the case is different. Very different I must say.

Keep pushing.

CareerRe: Is N400,000 A Bad Salary In Today's Nigeria? Is He Doing Something Wrong by benjijosh(m): 11:24pm On Sep 20, 2021
Honestly, I don’t think the breakdown is outrageous but the person is definitely living above their means. They need to cut down on less important things to them and save more.

Their annual rent is justifiable to me. 3 months of your hard work to put a roof over your head is not that crazy.
BusinessRe: CBN Shuts Down AbokiFX Bank Accounts by benjijosh(m): 6:55pm On Sep 16, 2021
TimeSpaceWizard:
You do not need bdc to import anything. You do not nerd dorm account to import anything. As a matter of fact I am sending a memo to CBN today to consider converting all dorm reserves to naira at CBN rate and closure of all bdc.

You do not need to source for usd to import, it is only in Nigeria you get all these parallel fx system. Simply pay your naira and get the dollars from bank at CBN rate to be paid out.

Having bdc and dorm accts destroyed Nigeria fx sector and must be stopped.

Now everyone is just scamming their way to glory under the pretext of affiliate marketing and importation and manufacturing. I am manufacture 3 products and I have businesses offshore too.

I am not a novice
And CBN is printing dollars that everytime you go to them, they will give you just enough right?

FamilyRe: Is It Right For My Niece's Boyfriend To Visit Her In My House? by benjijosh(m): 10:47am On Dec 26, 2020
It’s so disheartening to see the type of comments y’all are leaving on this subject.

To start with, she’s not a child. She’s 22.

She’s in her final year in school. Let’s face it. If she has solely taken decisions that have seen her get to the last year of her studies, trust her to do the right thing. Although, that doesn’t mean you can’t advice her.

Things have changed, it’s no longer 26/27 graduating again. 20/21 are now becoming B.Sc holders.

If she has the right to have a bf? Yes, she does. Unless you’re one unhappy uncle.

Did she do the right thing by inviting him? Yes, it’s Christmas. No biggie

Did she do the right thing by taking him straight to her room? Debatable. Everyone needs privacy.

Don’t be harsh on her. Call her and tell her to gist about the other day. Let her know having sex under your roof might be questionable.

Side note to y’all forming old motherfvckers, it’s same you that will stop by the road side to say hi to a stranger cos they look nice and sexy. How old do you think most of these ladies are?? 40 - 50
