Reach out and lets discuss. If you dont mind.
brimdans:
I would have loved to remain anonymous, but what's the point?

My problem is I'm a jobless graduate, who works for a friend. This friend I work for, doesn't even pay, he just gives me stipends after every work I do. It's a laundry work. He owns the shop, so he's in charge of everything in the shop including, collections of money and all. My work is just to work. I do virtually everything in the shop.

My problem is this guy almost all the time collects the money and doesn't even give me my share. The only time I see my share is when the I'm around when the monies are given to him.

I'm hooked because I mostly feed in there house, because the shop is just within the house. I tried to get a good job, but nothing is forth coming. I even tried applying for casual jobs, still no luck.

I'm currently in a dilemma because my parents are tired of me staying in there house, so currently I sleep in the shop, and it's not even conducive, but that's the only option I have.

I tried contacting my relatives in Lagos if I could go and make a living there, but they aren't really interested me coming.

Please I kindly need advise and help, because I'm heading towards depression.

I'm actually 30 years old. With nothing to show for, except "I'm a graduate" tag.

Go and read the slave trade history well. The white man did not come to your land to take your people. They simply came and met with rulers in your country and discussed their intentions. They presented gifts and boom! Your kinsmen started kidnapping each other for trade. Black people sold one another to the white people as slaves. A black-skinned human has been of questionable character since day one, and so it is till today. embarassed

FamilyRe: Am I A Failure? Please Rate Me. by catice(m): 9:19pm On May 05, 2021
I can relate. I feel the need to help you.
WhiteRuler:
First of all, apologies for any errors you may come across as I am not at the right frame of mind now.

Secondly, this post is 100% real about my life. So nothing is fake in it.

I'm a man, precisely 33 years old. I graduated from the University in 2019 at age 31. You may ask why I was still in school till that age. Well, I have realized that family/parental background matters a lot in a child's life no matter how people try to twist the fact. My family/parental background wasn't a good one educationally and financially as my parents were just petty traders and this has contributed negatively in achieving my goals and aspirations in life. With the above, you can deduce that there was no sources of funding for my tertiary education so I had to find a job after my secondary school while very ambitious about my furthering my education because I always believed in acquiring education up to university level. This led me to doing several odd jobs such as construction site labourer, security guard, cleaning, barbing, hawking, even to remove soak away and many others just to feed and see myself through school. Let me also add that @33 now, there are some jobs I can't do again because of some changes in my health system occasioned by some of the odd jobs I exposed myself to. For example, any strenuous job now is not for me as it makes me breath heavily like an asthmatic patient; any job that requires standing for long or bending down not for me due to broken waist (although these might be solvable issues but for now, I can't tell cos I have no money to visit health facility).

Moving on, while I may be thanking God for the academic success (even though the school is yet to issue me certificate) but I'm having strong feelings about myself. I feel like I have failed in life. I feel like I am a failure. My mates who got admission into university immediately after secondary school are gainfully employed today, living in comfortable apartment (built or rented), married with kids, have their own car and generally doing well. Even the ones who didn't further but venture into learning trade are doing well too. On the other hand, at 33, I have virtually nothing to show for it. Still living in one thatch house, poor, hungry and starving, no wife, no kid(s) (not even a serious girlfriend), no job, no car and nothing to show for my 33 years on earth. This is why I'm feeling like I have failed in life and it has made me to always be ashamed of myself and always trying to avoid meeting my mates who are doing well.

Also, looking at the country Nigeria, most employers recruit under 30. @33, what are my chances of
landing a good job if I refuse to forge age and go for service but collect exemption letter? What are even the possibility of getting a job as I have no capital for business? Note: between 2019 and now, I've learnt several online money making skills but yet to make a kobo out of it all. Note also: ordinarily, I wouldn't seek employment (private or government) because I'm multi talented e.g in football, entertainment or business but these talents need money to develop which is what I'm lacking.

My questions:
Please what do you all think? Do you think I have failed or I'm a failure in life? What is the future holding for me? As at today, the only thing I can boast of is "I am a graduate". Nothing more...like I said, poor, hungry and starving.

Help me with good pieces of advice please before my mind begins to consider evil as fastest way of making money. Thanks.

FamilyRe: I Regret Getting Married To The Mother Of My Triplets by catice(m): 12:43am On Mar 16, 2021
Does your wife work or have any business plan in mind?
Prospertochu:
I got my girlfriend then now wife pregnant, I wasn't ready for marriage. My plan was to take care of her and my baby while she stays in her father's house, her mother was fine with it as long as I take care of my responsibilities, but everything changed when the scan confirmed that she was carrying triples, her mother said I must marry her because there's no way her daughter will still under her roofs with 3 children.

I pleaded with her to give me sometimes to find my own accommodations because I was living in my father's family house after his demise I stay with his siblings while my mum left with my younger sister.

My mother in law refused saying I must do something fast because she doesn't want people to mocked her that her daughter has gotten pregnant out of wedlock not just with one baby but 3 so I managed to save enough money to get a place for our own but her mother refused saying I must pay her bride price first, I didn't have any more money so i have borrowed from friends and added to the money I had to pay for her bride price. It wasn't a big party just something small, I took my wife to my father family house where we are living now with our triplets but things hasn't been easy for me, taking care of 3 children it's not easy, I am grateful that I am rent free but household bills are killing me.

My wife and I are always arguing because she keeps asking for more money my salary is 55k I use to give her 20k monthly, 10 monthly to my mother and I use 20 and save 5k she said the money wasn't enough that I am stingy, I now started giving her 25k she is still complaining about the money not being enough. I refused giving her more she started staving me of sex and foods. My family are tired of separating us fighting almost every day, my uncle has asked us to leave the compound because we are disturbing there peace and I had to beg him to forgive us that ur shouldn't be happening again and I cautioned my wife but she is threatening to abandon me with the kids. I have told her to do her worse because I am tired of her madness. I wish I never married her in the first, all I could've do is to take care of my kids and let her be I know it's too late now to change the past but what should I do?

Rent $400 Electricity $25! Where be this place?Thats Amazing
Bvlgari:
As we all know, living overseas is very enjoyable but u must pay for those things unfailingly every month

This brings me to my question...

How much do u spend on your bills monthly overseas?

Pls note that it may vary from country to country

As for me, this is my breakdown spendings every month

1: house rent $ 400
2: grocery shopping $ 150
3: electricity $ 25
4: water $ 10
5: internet $50
6: gas $5
7: car fuel $ 50
8: kid school $ 150
7: miscellaneous $ 200

Total $ 1040 monthly

Pls kindly let use know yours because our people in Nigeria don't ever understand and they always demand and demand from us thinking there is a tree overseas that we pluck money from...and they pay their rent yearly o

May God bless our hussles

PoliticsRe: Don’t Touch Sunday Igboho, Nnamdi Kanu Warns FG by catice(m): 12:04pm On Feb 28, 2021
There is no true analysis than what this man has said. 10,000 Likes
Igboid:
Is forming the ESN right? Yes! And every sensible Igbo supports him on that.
Seeking for allies where none exist is foolish and waste of time. If MNK can spend more time in sober reflection and analysis of events occurring in SW and all parts of Nigeria rather than on talking, he would understand why there is no allies to be won in Yoruba land.

Let me analyse the Igboho situation for you.

Igboho realized that Yoruba elites like their counterparts in SE are not interested in tackling the Herdsmen issue because of their vested selfish political interests, so he tried to tackle the elites. He fired at the Ooni of Ife, he was counting on the support of the Yoruba commoners to bring their elites to their knee to do the right thing.
This isn't different from the confrontation MNK had with Igbo elites before Ohanaeze and Igbo governors went and brought in the Python when it became obvious MNK would not bend.

Unlike MNK, Igboho doesn't have support of the Yoruba commoners, because the Yoruba society is built on respect of the elders and not respect of what is right or who is doing the right thing. So while Igbo grassroot backed MNK to tackle and insult Igbo elites, Yoruba commoners wanted Igboho to go apologize to Yoruba elites in the name of Omoluabi. The Yoruba commoners are held down by their gerontology culture, the Igbo commoners are not.
Igboho simply cannot fight on without Yoruba commoners support, so he had a mini exile in Germany where he reassessed his options and realized that Yoruba commoners were not worth throwing his life away for, if they are going to support their erring elders over him. In one breath, the Yoruba commoners want Igboho to help them chase Herdsmen away, and in another breath they want him to do so while respecting their elites whose interest involves letting the herdsmen stay to stay in good book of the Fulani political benefactors. The Yoruba commoners therefore suffers from cognitive dissonance, and Igboho is wise enough to not get caught in their maze.
Igboho has done what every reasonable person in his position would do. He has surrendered to the Yoruba elites.

So effectively speaking, there is no allies to be won from SW as things stand,as Igboho has been forced to bend the knee to the Yoruba elites who like their Igbo counterparts are sell outs.

If Kanu had done his homework well, he would have realized this and stop setting Ndiigbo up in the name of useless alliance where non exist.

CrimeRe: Man Arrested In Imo For Killing A Man Who Accused Him Of Sleeping With A Woman by catice(m): 11:16am On Feb 25, 2021
I'm not getting your point. What he said was quite related to issue on ground. Two men fought over a woman and one got killed. He narrated how he was able to avert an unfortunate circumstance. So why are you sweating this?
BRATISLAVA:
What does that have to do with a murderer man?

You don't have abuses or anything to say, because a man has murdered someone. All you can do is somehow rope in women. Men have no responsibility for their actions, it's always tied to women, when these men cannot face the evils that their fellow men commit.

Condemn him the way you would've condemned a female murderer. Use all the rants you have for him. Oh, that won't get you likes.

Or you can't. Because you've lost sense of your humanity and become an empty misogynist.

This site needs a reformatting of the brains of all males using it. Seun has promoted enough woman hate, to the extent that men see crimes and are quiet, but once it involves a woman they have everything to say.

Nothing will ever change in Nigeria if people don't get punished appropriately for crimes committed. The only people who get unfair punishment are the ones at the lowest rung of the ladder. Do we need to persuade the public office holders this much before they can do the right thing? Fix the judiciary, police and prisons. We should be a step ahead to being fine.
