How do you invest in any of these companies?

Download bamboo or risevest apps etc.

Some industries sell shares through banks, find out the bank of the company that you want to buy shares.

My answer will be no, since they buried my umbilical cord there.

I will advise my recruitment team against asking funny questions after I set up a business.

That is psoriasis.

Tell her to reduce the amount of carbs and processed oil (minus olive oil and cod liver oil)she consumes..

She reduce the comsumtion ofred meat except the liver, heart, fat and kidney.

Avoid sugary drinks and fruits and drink a lot of water, engage in plenty of exercise.
Eat a lot of vegetables, and plant based protein.
Cut down on eggs too.

Practice abstaining from food for long periods of time too.


Psoriasis can ruin your relationship with the opposite sex completely if treated with kid gloves.

sammyscholar:
Wow, I just read your comment again, and slowly so! Nothing can be truer!

You perfectly know those people. You see Indians, Lebanese and Chinese, I always put them on their toes whenever I have transactions with them.

Same here.
Though I hate to generalize, I make sure that I am careful anytime I have dealings with the people you mentioned.

sammyscholar:
My world! How does my comment correlate with your response?

It's to support your point that the Chinese don't encourage importation from other countries .
I mentioned how they still leech on a country if they find a way.

I wasn't attacking you.

sammyscholar:
China economy is very, very closed to imports. China doesn't absolve other nations' products as much as it wants others to absolve hers.

To me, India is a better partner.

They don't tolerate corruption in their country but if you are corrupt, they help you to cheat your country and also help themselves.

vincenteger:
So we are not exporting anything to china

We need to do better.

The Chinese are involved in illegal mining here. They do it themselves.
They contracts that Julius Berger, Schlumberger, PW etc once did is now handled by their contractors.

Caaz:
There's a guy on nairaland here called Sunnyrado...he needs a wife,try get intouch with him.


I m elated reading from you.

Can the guy take care of her until she fully recovers before getting a job?

She needs someone with at least a fairly well paying job.

Nothing wrong in providing for a woman, if you can afford it.
Men are meant to provide, while women support him and manage resources.
This has been the custom right from time.

No matter the level of civilization and exposure, i feel the traditional man and woman relationship remains the best, where the man provides and she nurtures. Nice balance.

DoctorStanley:
I definitely "don't have a passion for medicine"
Wish I studied something I'd travel around the world and have a lot of fun. That's my passion.
Make a career change out of Medicine? Easier said than done

You must be brilliant to study medicine successfully.

Take a course in tech and you will pass in flying colors.

DoctorStanley:
Easier said than done. Suppose broke girl is the only girl you "love"?
I'm in my early 30's and a medical doctor and I wish I studied something else.
I wish I knew not to study something simply because it is prestigious and in vogue

Early thirties?

Young man, you have enough time to change to what you prefer.

Hello Sir, I saw this link in another thread about online university offering scholarship. If you have access to laptop and you can be determined, you can register and obtain associate degree (or bachelor degree ) from them.

Computer science is one the courses being offered Sir. Just wish to share the information as seen.

Remain blessed and do have a lovely weekend.

Thank you very much. I appreciate



I wish mods will move the post to front page so that other people can benefit or learn from it.

Kingpele:
And this kind of news is worthwhile in this kind of forum, e even happened long time ago...one day we will read here that someone woke up in the morning brush his teeth ,went to toilet and take his or her shower and head to work or school....

This is family section and then, nairaland is a forum meant to accommodate different kinds of posts on diverse topics. This is not an online newspaper.

Onetechnews:
One thing I want you to know is that tech skill does not have age constraint.
you can learn any skill as far as you have the passion and zeal.
Don't feel intimidated go for the skill.

Thank you very much.
I will be starting soon.

The passion is there.

etoluw:
The main issue is do you have what it takes. I have seen several people of various ages who ventured into tech and later dumped it because they couldn't cope.

Tech is definitely not for everyone.

I have passion, I am a very resilient person, plus I never start what I can't complete.

I appreciate each and every one who gave me a word of encouragement.

Hopefully, before the end of this year I will enroll for a course.

Some mentions with sensitive information like phone numbers can't be deleted by the mentioned.

Please look into that.

airsaylongcome:
No do UI/UX. These "new cats" aka young bloods go destroy you there. Look for something most people run away from. For a n00b, someone already suggested System Admin. Allied to Syd Admin is Devops. I would suggest Help Desk->System Admin and ultimately Devops. I be "grandpapa" like you. But this field doesn't care about age. At least not in your 40s. Welcome. And stay the course. You will run into stuff that will make you consider quiting. That's the time to dig into your core and tell yourself why you are doing this. Na escape from poverty all of us dey. Dem go say 46 na old man. But person wey die at 46 die young. Nor let age pressure you. Na when person wake na hin be hin morning

Na wao.
Una just dey wow me with correct correct advices.
I really appreciate. I will research more about the course.
Thanks.

Grandfather1:
At 47? My brother, you’re just starting second half. I learned how to use smartphone properly at 52 — now I send voice notes like small pikin. Learning no get expiry date.

UI/UX? Go ahead. If the eyes are still clear and the brain still dey catch things, nothing stop you. Just make sure say you get small patience and steady internet.

When I started learning Excel, I nearly faint from formula overload. Now I build budget sheets for my wife’s akara business. That one na tech too.

you are very funny.
I appreciate your input. Now I'm determined about enrolling, but someone suggested I take another course, that UI/UX is saturated already.

SKhanmi:
Not too old. Just not UIUX, it has a low entry barrier and the job market for it is saturated. Trust employers to take advantage and offer peanuts, you might as well learn graphics design and be done with it.

Find something harder and stick to it. Cloud, backend or System admin. You can check out other learning paths also or go back to ethical hacking.

And you must have a steady income to back you up.

Thanks. I like your take on the topic.
I will check out the ones you have mentioned.

A mighty man falls seven times but rises up again.
Rest in peace sir.

You overcame personal battles, never gave up yourself. You are worthy to be called a God's general.

[quote author= post=135950306]How many times this same question pops up. There is no age limit for learning new thing[/quote]True.
I and the other ones who asked a similar question only need affirmation, then people's perspective on the subject or experiences that could be of value.

2special:
No not at all....Go for your passion.... Learn whatever you wish to learn for your growth

Thanks. I'm encouraged, honestly.
I'm becoming bored so i need to take on more challenges.

I am 46 years old, going to 47.
I've always wanted to learn a computer skill, and while at it, further my studies.

I am a secondary school leaver and came to Lagos over 10 years ago to learn ethical hacking but dropped out due to financial constraints.
I want to study UI/UX Design.

Am I too old to start?

Your stepmom used the opportunity to show appreciation to you for not getting involved in family issues.

Gooooooal.... Tottenham.

I don't support violence but if it's true that whites own almost 80% of farmland in SA, let them be magnanimous enough to donate some back to the black.
After all, the land belonged to the blacks before they came and forcefully take over.

Ramaphosa was too gentle for my liking during the meeting.

I got a lot of information that will be of benefit.

The dead body's state looks like he died before being hanged to make it look like suicide.

A hanged person's body is usually stretched, neck positioned awkwardly etc.
