The overly priced products just to make it look like you're selling some products.

BTW, have you made millions already?

Sell or use that's your choice, and about my making millions, that's my personal business

Benbellamor:
Are you a millionaire now? Or just a sugarcoated mouthed Swindler...

. "Sugar coated mouth swindler" Aren't you crossing a line? Watch your utterances.

Any job/NGO that asks the proposed employee to pay/register should not be taken seriously.

My aunty has been an active member of La Buena Vida for years with nothing to show for it. She tried to get me to join. I have asked several times for her to explain the process of how I will make money but she can't give a concrete answer.

Your zoom meetings are serious scam with members flooding the comment section pretending to be new members paying and registering. Please don't deceive people here because you want to gain members.

First of, you're not registering, you're making purchase, one time purchase! Turning your liabilities to assets. And you earn commission for bringing business to our partner. If that isn't simple enough, forget it. I don't know what your definition of "scam" is, but show me one person that lost money in this. You receive the products you avoid for, you decide what to do with it. And for the zoom session, be sincere with yourself, did you gain value for the time or not? Be there shouting scam, others are plugging into it and are making a difference.

Oga you have only succeeded in saying NOTHING pls.....Explain in Very clear term what this thing is....I believe you are a learned individual and you understand what I mean by that.

Oga, a wise man once told me "Na explain kill monkey" If you e been invited, go and learn, have the experience for yourself, don't wait for someone's explanation. Or you ignore it totally, Life is a choice, you make your choice. This goes to everyone quoting me, MLM or Direct Sales industry is basically a referral business. You get paid a commission for the business you bring either directly or that originated from your organisation. If you can share all all the gossips you see on twitter, Facebook and other SM, but can't use same time to share links for people to see an opportunity then make an informed decision, that's your choice. Keep on giving #1000 so that in 2weeks you can receive #2000.

I agree MLM has been challenging in Nigeria due to some factors especially lack of trainings, heck even those studying Marketing in Nigeria don't even know what MLM is.

IFYI, I do this for a living.

SavageResponse:
Oga go and sit down!

Oga, intyoed that while sitter, same way I'm sitter while typing this.
Ignorance laced with arrogance is a difficult thing to cure.

Seconded

grandee4u:
You seems to know much about them...what do you mean by: "the opportunity may not be for me" but that it can change my life history for the best It sounds like an oxymoron or should I say ironical...

Not an oxymoron exactly, truth is, life is a choice, you can decide that the opportunity isn't a fit for you, however, if you can give it a chance, you'll be surprised at where you'll be in 6-24months. Challenge is that most people want to be convinced, forgetting that a man that's convinced against his will remains the same still. This opportunity is voluntary, you decide to do it or not.


Ps: I'm doing it full time and it's been an exciting experience. I've seen this change lives, from the worse to the best. It's not a get rich quick scheme, it's not a bring ₦2000 and in two weeks you get #4000. It's a business where value is exchanged for money.

Your life, your opinion. But a little research often times saves one from the shame of arrogant ignorance.

I stumbled on this particular NGO by the name: La Buena Vida...the good life....
So I did some online registration on the 19th of this Month, I was called 3 days later, today I am Expected to come to their Office for a meeting.
But my point is: has any one heard about it and if yes, how genuine are there?? Though, I was only meant to come with a face/nose mask, pen and paper, then dress decent.

Urgent Response, please!!!

The truth is that the opportunity may not be for you, but with as little as ₦44,888 you can change your life history for the best. I strongly recommend you go to the office first, see things for yourself, the. you can make an informed decision.

saintsylve:
Hummm, let me learn.

I registered with them and when their zoom meeting became un bearable, I hibernated myself till this moment. I know I have lost that money but I cant keep losing my time and energy.

Everyone of them is earning millions in a month, everyday, thousands of naira.....haba.
My only consolation is the chi energy necklace with big pendants which protects one from emissions. Though still in their various groups but dont find myself active with them anymore, the cock must not crow three times, GNLD and now this? Enjoy man.

It's unbelievable that people are making millions daily right? believe it or not, that's the truth people are making good money. The Powercell meetings is a training, 90% of the training is a out your personal development, financial education, interpersonal relationship skills, etc, just 10% is about the business. I would advise you go back, study and earn. Armateurs don't get paid, professionals do, and the difference between an Amateur and a professional is in the skill set.

oneolajire:
It is a pyramid scheme. Or network marketing. The ones before them crashed. I got to know them in 2017, their warri office is beside PTI campus.

They will still fold up. I have been knowing them for almost 20 yrs, they all die before 6 years.

They introduced my pastor to it, then my pastor invited me, they sent me some videos bla bla bla.

Then I asked, what's the difference between this pyramid scheme and the previous ones? They could not answer.

They were only telling me I would make money.


I also asked, can I join without inviting new people? They say I should join but I must bring new people.

Go online and study what pyramid scheme is.

I don't have enough time to explain.

There's a great difference between a pyramid scheme and. multilevel marketing company.

secondly, Aimglobal is over 10 years in Nigeria. They're not going anywhere. They've created more Millionaires than the federal government has. I'm not here to convince you, you're entitled to your opinion. What I would say is keep your prejudice aside, learn and grow.

La'Buena Vida... living the good life!

House1411:
One of their agent is on naira land I think he is even the ceo. His moniker is Lanre88

Ask him the question directly. But I must warn you, they are a scam

pray tell me sir, what's your definition of "scam" and in what way is La'Buena Vida Project a scam?

Alright boss, you got mails on WhatsApp

good evening gurus in the house. please how much can get me a complete solar system of 2.5kva, I'm not looking for the best brand in the market, but something durable that can backup for 8hours daily. My freezer(1), washing machine(1), and AC(2) are all inverter models. besides I won't run them concurrently. @kiekie @georged and all. please help a brother out.

There are other broadband ISPs asides mtn, Glo, Airtel, and 9mobile. There are ISPs that offr truly unlimited monthly or annually billed internet access, you only get to pay for the speed you want. Say 5Mbs/3Mbs or 10mbs/7Mbs that's download and upload speeds respectively.

tensazangetsu20:
They are both useless. I have had all networks fail during an interview before. My wifi and both mobile networks you listed all went down the same time.

tensazangetsu20:
You forgot horrible internet speed. I lost a job of 1.6 million naira a month because of the rubbish Internet speed in Nigeria it pains me everyday because even though I earn well relatively I don't still make up to half of that. So painful.

get a phone that allows you aggregate your data connection(browse with both sms at once) that way you can use say mtn and Airtel at once whenever you have a serious gig to do

Ciscogod:
Bros, Its as easy as 123, Get an internet of 6 to 10Mbps and not Data cap internet

please with which ISP in Nigeria?

Kettlecorn:
You should note that all diesel engines manufactured for the US market require Ultra Low Sulfur diesel. Is this available in Nigeria? The F250 also uses/needs DEF fluid for the emissions systems to work properly (availability an issue?). A tank of DEF lasts anywhere from 3k to 6k miles depending on how you drive, YMMV. Vehicle will go into limp mode if you run out of DEF fluid and be limited to 50mph. It may even refuse to start after so many starts with no DEF fluid. A potential way around these issues is to delete the DPF/DEF exhaust system, run straight pipes and retune the engine but you need a very knowledgeable mechanic to do that. Or if you're lucky to find one, buy one manufactured for the Mexican market that lacks all the emissions stuff. Having said all this, it may be easier to buy a diesel Tacoma that lacks all the complicated emissions stuff and can run any type of diesel if you are determined to drive a diesel truck.

wow, this is one of most educating piece I've read on this issue. So if I must drive F250, it's better I get the one made for Mexican markets. Thanks so much for this information.

MASTAkiLLAh:
search femtopford here on nairaland, if he can handle repairs of your truck then you have no problems. Radautoworks also has a very good workshop which i visit once once, you can talk to her and see what she has to say as per maintenance. I dont know anything about the truck you want to buy and most people commenting here are just making posts out of sentiments. Call those two people, if they can handle that toy then go ahead and get it.. Cheers

femtopford confirmed he's cool with it. Repairs and parts. I believe he is capable.The challenge is, he's just one person, and I love having multiple choice.

sultaan:
Reviews from those who use one is very good.
A very powerful truck used to pull heavy loads by owners.
Heavy duty trucks are work trucks, but for those who want it for daily driving it might get expensive fueling it.

The current generation of diesel engines comes with DEF that help keep emissions low.
Using a modern car in Nigeria has it hassles, but if you can afford a ruck like that you don't need the opinions of those who do not know what you are talking about.

The only question is, the 2018 f250 is new, and expensive, is it necessary to get the heavy duty or by a light duty truck.
If you need a heavy duty, have a thorough inspection before you buy the truck

I appreciate this, unbaised but objective. Tacoma has a diesel engine, but its features are dated, F150 is a bit light (light vehicles tens to get stuck radio) though has the same cabin with f250. F250's fuel consumption isn't that bad, 12litres/100 km. Besides it's a diesel engine, and Turbo Charged, Turbo Charger reduces fuel consumption by 3-5% diesels don't burn as fast as petrol, + with the way things are going, very soon the so called subsidy on petrol will be completely eliminated meaning the price difference won't be much again. And I'm considering a 2018model coz like you said it's a bit modern and is less likely to gimme engine issues. Maintenance on diesel engine is basically oil+ filter, and gas filter change. But I may be wrong,

Agbabiakara:
If you have access to oem parts and good diesel fuel, then it is a good buy. I mentioned good diesel fuel because of the advanced emission system used that is very sensitive to bad diesel fuel. Also ensure you have time to take the car on highway drive once in a while so that the car can undergo full regen cycle. Do not worry about competent techs as they are available.
quote author=bigbauer post=98180552

Please is a 2018-2020 Ford F250 a good buy in Nigeria considering serviceability, availability of technicians spare parts etc?

I would've gone for a Toyota tundra, but Tundras has no diesel engines and their cab (dashboard, interior etc) looks dated compared to the competition.

hubcruz[/quote]thanks for your contribution, yes the vehicle will be doing interstate at least thrice monthly. Clean diesel is what I can't guarantee, considering the country we're in (Nigeria)

Kettlecorn:
The Ford 6.7L scorpion engine is only about a decade old with 3 generations; 2011-2014, 2015-2019 and 2020-2021. It is a very powerful engine with the 3rd generation capable of over 1000 lb-ft of torque. My question to you would be what do you plan to do with this vehicle? If you are not towing or carrying anything big, why do you need such a powerful work truck? For a daily driver, it will be an expensive toy. This engine is known for some very expensive failures but when sorted, it is one of the best diesel truck engines on the market and has gotten better with each generation. Prior to 2020, all 6.7l engines were prone to injector pump failure. This failure can potentially destroy the fuel system and cause very expensive repairs. The EGR coolers are also known to fail. Pre 2015 models also experienced broken glow plugs and premature turbo failure. These are all relatively expensive repairs. Although it is meant to be a work truck, it is very comfortable and great for long distance travel. If you find a cheap 6.7l truck, make sure to have it checked out by a reliable diesel mechanic or you will buy someone's nightmare.
In terms of reliability and simplicity, I would rate the Tundra higher. It will also go as long as a diesel, easily going 400k reliable miles.

wow, this is insightful. I won't be towing, and less likely to haul much, I just love trucks, and intend to use it as a daily drive and yes, i travel a lot due to what I do. So I'll be moving across the country with it. Tundra was my first choice but has no diesel engine, I don't think driving a V8 petrol engine is a smart move and especially considering the fact that Tundra is a fuel guzzler, + it's dated features. I considered the F250 coz it's a Turbo Charged diesel engine, which means it can move when speed is needed. (At least before a car snatcher or kidnapper reach me make e sweat small).

sultaan:
I just bought myself a new car I had been thinking of most of 2020, but decided too wait for some discounting kick in.

A 2020 F150 and it was not cheap.

congratulations, is it a diesel engine? I'm looking at a 2018 F250 6.7l. But I've been asked to get a Tundra instead, citing reliability, spare parts etc.
