Theconglomerate:if you actually work and save for 3-5 years you will have enough to buy atleast a 2-3bedroom house depending on the location but Americans live a life of credit... credit cards have ruined a lot of life’s here including divorce settlements drugs crime etc...I have opted never to use a credit card cos a lot of people run into Debts using that and Americans love buying things they don’t need someone will pay for his internet cable tv Netflix HBO prime etc they don’t know how to save why do you think nigerians come here after 2-3 years they buy houses even start sending money home to there loves ones aka black tax ...only handful of Americans save , house in Sacramento costs about $200-300k and an average minimum wage there is $15 they end up working only 3-4 days a week and spend the money they got on stupid things but nigerians that come here work longer hours and save more even have 2-3 houses paid off in cash not mortgages so an average American problem is laziness,dependency on government they can declare bankruptcy, divorce and crime drug abuse etc 10 Likes |

9japride:i am Igbo from enugu state I will tell you boldly we are the most tribalist ethnicity in Nigeria most Nigerians are educated illiterates first of all what’s the meaning of tribe ? It’s clan or community separated from each other and igbos have stereotypes about other tribes like Yoruba and Hausa,which prevent them from broadening their mind, learning more about different cultures and befriending people who do not belong to their own tribe...a tribalistic person Boasts about the merits and good qualities of the tribe, but refuses to recognize its bad qualities and faults, sometimes even trying to hide them,Prefers marriage only between the members of a native tribe, as opposed to the intertribal marriages. We always feel we are superior and that’s why we are hated everywhere we go I see it here in California it’s very visible to the eyes if you like believe it our problem is that we are living in denial 2 Likes |

milehigh06:majority of Americans don’t get college degrees whites included but 56% of white males have college degrees 45% of white females have college degrees while 17.5% of black female have college degrees and 7% of black males have college degrees while African immigrants have over 43.5% of college degree holders and still counting... go to any jail house it’s filled up with black Americans and few Hispanics, I don’t care the Neighbourhood you are referring to... in every country there’s always a neighborhood that doesn’t welcome people it’s normal both in Europe Asia Australia even in Nigerian and Africa it’s just like a Fulani man moving to my neighborhood I will never trust him till he proves himself over years and this whites have reservations against blacks and most times not all times the same blacks proves the whites right for not trusting them...when I first moved to my neighborhood it’s all filed with whites and I am the only black guy in the block I was always stopped by the police Neighbourhood watch over years I proved to be a good neighbor no crime no noice I never brought thugs home I started gaining there trust now we all get along ...all I am saying is that black Americans should just put this racism and slavery stuff behind them start going to college or engaging in skilled labor and stop hoping on doing guns,drugs selling weeds hoping on enrolling in sports or rap music the ones that are doing it are excelling...I know a lot of African American women that are excelling and she hasn’t even found a man cos she said most of the men she knows from her neighborhood has either gone to jail or don’t have a job so she can’t bring herself down to date any of them and the few successful African American men are married to white women as trophy wives....blacks have a problem and we need to deal with it fast ....nobody has to love us it needs to start by us loving ourselves first |

Originalsly:ogam I believe you should go back and do your research, after I had a discussion with a Japanese lady that I worked with few years back my mindset changed.... the Portuguese sold a lot of Japanese as slaves brought them to Europe for sex slaves gave there men out for hard labor even the South Koreans where sold as slaves , do you still hear them talk about it even the Japanese took Chinese people as slaves and tortured them, I can go on and on , blacks were not the only slaves but so much emphasis has been layed on the slavery because we have chosen to dwell in the past and not move forward when the British came to Chinese they took a lot of slaves because they needed cheap Chinese laborers they used them to build railroads in England used there women as sex slaves in Scotland wales and England they were tortured and killed in droves I believe you should do your research and you don’t actually know about it cos this people have dusted themselves up and moved on from it but Africans are just a different species we never move forward with anything |

And as of nigerians been the most educated country in America yes that might be true because an average American believes he doesn’t have to be educated to be successful just like the majority of billionaires in America are mostly drop outs but our culture and orientation as a people is you need to be educated to be able to make money....and we mostly use student visa to apply for American immigration , we are hardworking yes because we have lots of families and friends back in Nigeria always asking you for money you have bills to pay your mom is sick your father is sick they need to pay there house rent your sisters and brothers are looking up to you for there tuition your friends are always texting you on Whatsapp and Instagram asking you for money you have every right to work hard....but an American doesn’t need to do all that he doesn’t have any family member bothering him for money all he pays is his personal bills...I support trump and I am not ashamed of it... if Africa and blacks demands respect they should earn it just like the Chinese and other countries have earned there’s fix your country and continent and stop getting upset when you get insulted....just like when a friend asks me why is there so much hunger in Africa I just smile and tell them they wouldn’t understand I don’t get upset when I get insulted cos it’s what we caused ourselves we need to deal with it.... |

Because they decided not to do so....America is built on immigrants ....you said trumps ancestors moved to America was it illegally? Or legally? He’s against illegal immigrants am sure you would do the same if you become president of Nigeria or any country stopping illegal immigrants was his campaign promises if Americans weren’t happy about the policy no one would have voted him btw I have a lot of Hispanic friends they support his policy because the illegals are making the legal ones look bad talking of stereotyping...because illegals are majority not law abiding they can get away with any crime because they are not documented I don’t expect you guys to understand till you live in America and work not just vacation or visiting 2 Likes 1 Share |
