[quote author= post=131457078]Oh we heard from Nigerians they are a lot of Farmer's Market in Texas also, cos of the huge land mass. So California is big for farming too? How we wish our Nigeria can learn from this in Obodo Oyibo. We have everything to be a big exporter of agricultural produce.[/quote]Yes California is the agricultural capital of America (I’ve always known that) but I’m now seeing that Texas is up there as well.
Their weather is similar to California’s so I’m not surprised to hear that.
[quote author= post=131456717]Awww, thank you sis. Btw, Where was the Farmers Market you mentioned earlier? Bissonet or where? Not Southwest FM right? Asking for a colleague.[/quote]No. I’ve never lived in Texas. This was in a cute little village somewhere in Germany.
But my favorite farmers’ markets are all in California. The land of farmers.
Wsx2: I can see where you are coming from as a female, you have no responsibilities so you will never understand
You could have answered my question but you chose this response
Just because the women in your life are irresponsible, doesn’t mean you can lump everyone in the same boat.
Now put your thinking cap on and analyze why you built 8 houses in Nigeria and bought 3 cars (which by the way are deteriorating as we speak) if the houses don’t give you financial levity to afford at least one house in America (or wherever you are) that you have to resort to living in one room.
What’s smart about that?
Since I’m but a feeble irresponsible woman who knows nothing about finances, can you pls educate me on this financial strategy? Maybe I can improve my life listening to your financial wisdom.
43Ronin: You can obviously tell she said this as Joe biden VP. She cannot deceive we legit citizens that work so hard only for the Dems to use our tax payers money to fund israel/Gaza war & naziNato/Russia war. Everything is hard, no jobs. Dems should go abeg & trump should deport all illegal aliens including you
I’m illegal? You should pick up comedy as a side hustle. You might actually make some people laugh.
Democrat voters don’t care for wars and our tax dollars paying for them either. That’s more a Republican thing. You don’t know your party people it seems
What was the point of owning 8 houses and 3 cars in Nigeria if that real estate portfolio can’t give you the financial means to afford a better place in America?
I’m curious to know how this type of financial mindset works .
I know you’re going to say you can afford it but choose to live in one room. Then my next question is why? You’re pinching the penny to do what? To buy more land and another house and another house just to live in on room the whole time? What’s the end goal?
To have money to live comfortably or have money that you can look at and smile while living in squalor?
Wsx2: My brother better leave Nigerians alone, they are difficult to advice. Plan your life wisely, time will tell. I left 8 houses back in nigeria , 3 cars. I got here in canada and had to adjust immediately. I live in 1 room here and never drive a finance car, this is a different society. Just because they gave them credit opportunities, they will go all out to put themselves in debt they can’t get out of just to show off on social media and impress gullible people back home. They are broke.
If you try to advice them they will shut you off and say they only live once, they never for once think they can live longer. They don’t even think.
43Ronin: Don't mind her. Although she black-indian, she never once identified as black (esp as indians hate black people) then joined sleepy Joe in jailing thousands of black people just for smoking weed. Hopefully she will lose & trump will stop funding useless wars with tax payers money
She never admitted to being black? Yet she said this some years ago
Las Vegas, Nevada rally is in 5 hours and the lines is something out of the length of the wall of china. Watch space for updates.
Seun has deactivated twitter so you have to go to that twitter user post to watch.
I’ve been watching And Trump has been watching too
He literally quaking in his boots.
He basically admitted to regretting the debate with Joe. He said “why did I debate him? If I didn’t he would still be here now running the campaign”. Something along those lines. He’s afraid because he knows the truth now. He’s no match for Kamala. lol
armyofone: My preference is big nice cribs to live in. Simple car to take me around is ok. But big house or mansion, count me in
I might change my mind though and have both but not crazy about cars but crazy about nice home
I’ll never compromise on a big house. 4 bedrooms minimum. 5 bedrooms ideally. A very nice car is compulsory. And trips have to be pre planned so I have something to look forward to.
I don’t know why our people think there’s honor in suffering. There isn’t. A system exists for most people to be able to live that way as long as they are smart about it.
I don’t know why we’re pocket watching. I’ve never seen a person in a nice car and thought they must be poor and showing off a car they can’t afford. I just think in my head what a nice car.
If the bank hasn’t repossessed it yet, who says they can’t afford it?
afroxyz: There is no problem with hustling. The problem is focusing on the hustle and not seeing the bigger picture.
It is poverty mentality that makes Nigerians focus on hustling when they get abroad. They forget money is a tool to have a better quality of life. Nigerians remember the money part, but forget about ye quality of life part. On your death bed you would cherish the memories and experince iver the money you amassed. Even your children would remember you through memories you created with them not houses you built. Physical wealth is finite and would fade. That house you are building will either be sold or go to ruins. Use money to increase your opportunities and improve the quality of your life. Nigerians don't get this
maestroferddi: Madam quit being emotional because Trump will win it......
Is that right?
Why then did he just admit in public that he regrets defeating Biden. “Why did I debate him? If I didn’t debate him he’d still be here”. Basically admitting that he’s regretting debating Joe because it led to Kamala coming in to take the ticket. Oh is he afraid? 😱
I know any woman who doesn’t agree with you moronss is automatically emotional. No originality and no personal perspective. Just one shared brain cell between all of you regurgitating the same painfully ignorant rhetoric and stereotypes.
Freshtruth: America will never allow a Black woman to rule before a white woman. As powerful as Hillary Clinton who have Bill Clinton' a former president support lost to Trump who be kamala
descarado: I didn't even know when we entered summer( though summer here this yr is not really summer, according to people) This year have been my busiest year. Don't even know how I managed. It's not end of yr yet. Some friends went on a summer holiday and I am just looking at them with corner eye. But, aside that, it is a very good yr so far. Thanks for asking.
We’re entering fall soon my favorite season.
My time to actually enjoy life without burning up in the sun. I’m about to be outside outside lol 😂
This exactly. Penny pinching and scraping for decades with nothing real to show for it. And for what?
The people living above their so called means enjoyed life while at it, traveled the world , enjoyed luxury cars, lived in great neighborhoods and their kids enjoyed fine things of life from childhood. No be suffer head.
In the end both of them will most likely die at approximately the same age. One would have got out of life what God created the earth for. For human Enjoyment. And the other would have started trying to live fully when his bones are weak and joints are stiff.
That is if neither of them died in their youth.
Like someone said up there, money is a tool. Use it to improve your life. First acquire an important skill or the necessary education that ensures that money will always come then go out there and live life. For goodness’ sake!
OChimex: You might be right, and might also be wrong. Maybe they want to work so damn hard for a short time and invest and retire back home. I had a friend who did Dat for 10 years now he is retired in Nigeria building companies. But, you said you have lived here for 15 years, even though you live like a church rat and don't spend, so why haven't you saved enough to retire? So basically you have wasted 15 years of your life punishing yourself. 😆🤣 And you do junk American foods? Why can't you go african market and get healthy food cook? Make you enjoy small ooo, life is not guaranteed ooo. Besides, some of those guys might just be born hustlers and now they have the energy they want to utilize it to maximum. I do HVAC and my job is 100 percent commissioned, and my job pays crazily, but that spirit of hustling dey still push me to do side hustling too, just coz I hate staying home some days in front of the TV it's boring
Tightpussy2024: £200 is almost 400k . They will personally do the Naira equivalent and start a thread on "woman demands 400k from husband to make her hair" . Then insults at women will begin .
descarado: I am just tired of these quarter baked fellas. Thought that as we integrate with other countries through social media it will get better. If the wife is not black, he will not be woman wrapper.
Abeg, you are you and yours?
You’re right. To them only non-black women deserve care and attention
Nne we are fine. And you guys? Summer is almost over. Hope you’ve been making the best of it
Seems like you lot should go and learn the abcd of marriage in real world before you delude yourselves with the average Nigerian fantasy marriage. It's not far fetched why Nigeria is not progressing. When the mindset is only about self, starting from the home front, how will serving the public not be all about self?
A man plaited his wife's hair and you are calling him woman wrapper. When he is licking her clit, he is not woman wrapper. When he is fighting her nunu with the child, he is not woman wrapper. When he is sharing bills with her( it is a must), he is not woman wrapper.
