FamilyRe: My Wife’s Salary Was A Mystery Until I Discovered How Much She’s Truly Worth* by COLDMIND(m): 5:31pm On Mar 26, 2021
The part where you said she borrowed you money to buy a family car that both you and her would use, then started pressuring u to pay back after 2 months really got me. Some women are just so selfish especially when it comes to money. Bro it will take d serious grace of God for you to overcome this heartbreak. E pain pass cheating self.

Take heart bro.

quote author=izito post=100188988]*

In 2016 she told me her salary was #50.000 And then two years later, when she got promoted, I asked about her salary and she said, “Oh these people, don’t mind them. They added only #5000 to my old salary. Because of her meager salary, I’ve taken up so many responsibilities in the house without complaint. I pay for utilities and pay for food. I pay the fees of our two kids, clothe them, and take care of their medical bills. When my wife sends me a grocery list, she adds sanitary pads. She buys dresses and clothes, comes to show them to me, and asks me to pay for them. She started talking about a car when our second child came in. Things weren’t good on my side so I asked her to give me some time. She said, “I’ve saved something. I can add it to what you have so you pay me when your money comes.”

I agreed and took that money from her, topped it up to get her a car. For three months my ears never rest. She would wake up at dawn and ask me to pay what I owed her. I got tired and paid the money when I didn’t have much in my account.

One evening, I turned my laptop on and saw a lot of emails. I checked and it was my wife’s email that had been opened. I asked her, “Did you use my laptop?” She answered, “Yeah I was checking something.” I told her, “Then you didn’t log out.” She answered, “I forgot. Please log out for me.” I was about to log out when something caught my attention. I saw a mail with the subject, “January Payslip.” I opened and started going through. When I saw her gross salary, I was shocked. #400,734? And this girl has been crying poverty?

I went through the details. That night I couldn’t sleep. I was angry. I felt let down. I felt cheated. I felt played. We’ve been married for six good years and my wife earned that much without my knowledge? How much she earned didn’t bother me a lot than what she was using that money for. I decided not to talk immediately but rather do a little bit of investigation.

All my life I’ve held the view that it wasn’t right for anyone to go through their partner’s phone. It’s an invasion of privacy and it breeds mistrust in the relationship but that night, going through her phone was the only way to find out what I was looking for. I started with her best friend. Nothing much was found. Her family had a Whatsapp group. I read the messages there. I got few hints. I went through the chat with her father and that was when I realized my wife had bought a piece of land and had started building. Her father was in charge of the project. He had sent photos of the various stages of the building. At some point, her father said, “Thank you for helping out your brother. He would have been home had it not been you.”

She has only one brother—her senior brother. I went to look for the chat between them. Her senior brother lost his job and was home doing nothing so my wife bought her Hyundai i10 to use for Uber. Every week, her brother rendered an account and they split the money. From all indications, my wife was doing well for herself while she plays poor so she could rely on my salary. Why would she do that? I thought I was being a supportive husband so my wife could be proud of the man she married. When we bought land, it was her name and my name that appeared on the land title. That car I bought for her with a loan from her bears her name. I didn’t mind. I believed what’s hers was also mine. 

The next morning she realized I wasn’t looking well. I was boiling on the inside but looking for a good opportunity to start the conversation. When I calmed down a little, I asked her, “So why would you do that to me?” She asked, “What have I done?” I answered, “You bought land, you never told me. You started building on it, you never told me. When are you going to tell me?” She was shocked. She asked, “Who told you all that?” I said, “Your father did.” She stood quiet for a while. She asked, “Why would my father tell you all that? What were you people talking about” I said, “I don’t know. You can ask him.” 

We left it there. Some minutes later she came to me with her phone: “My father wants to talk to you.” The phone was already on a loudspeaker. His father was clearly angry. He asked, almost shouting, “You said I told you my daughter has a building? Where did I say that and when?” I asked, “Is it not true that my wife has a building project going on that you’re supervising?”  He asked me, “I told you that?” I asked, “Is it true or not?” After the back and forth I told them, “I read your messages last night. I saw the pictures. I read the various budget you had sent to my wife. I read the confirmation of the money receipts that you sent her. You’re a man. Would you be happy if your wife does this to you?” He started fumbling. He started apologizing saying he thought I was aware.”


My wife stood there motionless, didn’t know what to say. When her father hung up, I told her everything I knew, from her salary to the car she bought for her brother. I said, “Yet, even your sanitary pad, I buy them. You think I’m a fool? You’ll use your money to acquire your own properties and live on mine because you’re my wife? I hear. We’ll see.”

Trust was lost. Love was broken. We had to find a new way of living our lives going forward. Her father called me every morning and evening apologizing for everything and sometimes taking up the blame so I didn’t have to blame his daughter. I told him, “The emotional state I’m in right now, it would be hard to think straight or think forgiveness. Just give me space.” Three days later, they were in our house. The father, the mother, and the senior brother. They came to apologize. “Don’t let this break up the beautiful marriage you both have. If nothing at all, consider the kids and be lenient in your judgment.”

I listened to them. My position was still the same. “I need time to clear my mind. Just leave me alone to think.” From last month to this moment that I’m writing this, my wife had changed totally. She doesn’t ask for money but the house is being run smoothly. She has started paying for things she never paid for but that doesn’t move me. She has taught me a very great lesson and I’m taking it seriously. That in everything, I have to look out for myself and my family first. Last she told me, “If you want us to change the names on those properties, we can do so.” Guess whose name is on the property…her father’s name.”

I told her, “You don’t need to change anything. They are yours. You suffered for them so you can decide what you want to do with them.” The land I bought has our names. I’m selling it and take my money back. The car she’s driving has her name. I put a for-sale sticker on it some weeks ago. She agreed she’ll pay for the car. I’ve given her two months to pay up or I sell it and take my money. She’s getting the message and I’m glad. Each one for himself, God for us all. She keeps asking if I’m going to leave her. I keep telling her I won’t but if she wants a divorce, I will gladly give her. I’m not going to leave the marriage. I would give us some time to heal and see what may happen but when it comes to money, I’ve taken the lesson she taught me through her actions.

You being a gambling agent is no business brand, and stop making noise man if you must know the hard truth, betting business will die soon in Nigeria because the law of demishing returns is very high on it and when better infrastructure comes to Nigeria jobless youths who give you money will stop giving you,, a typical example are cyber cafes in Nigeria in the early 2000s, so stop deceiving yourself into thinking you have a business let alone a proper brand, you are nothing more than a sales boy for a brand using your hustle to shine till it goes down under my man undecided common sense is not common

BusinessRe: My Daily Routine As a freelancer by COLDMIND(m):
FunnyDude:
Actually being a badass freelancer comes with lots of working hours. I can categorically say I'm always working day and night, aside feeding and taking a few hours nap.
Inside my room oo! I'm busy calculating my money , reading instructions of my various clients;because each client has their own taste and style.

Even my friends going to office do seek for financial assistance from me because salary day is still long ahead. What can be more captivating that this lifestyle without a boss.

Daily time table :

WORK in the midnight mostly because that was the best time for me to think.

Sleep from 4am to 9am

Take my brush and bath 9am then Breakfast

Check out Nairaland gist for like 30minutes

Return to my office (My Room, Lols!)

WORK till like 4pm in the evening

At 4pm I stroll out for like 1hour to look for my dear slay queens .. Afterwards eat a lot of food and cool drink.

By 6pm I'm back working again till 9pm

After then, my street slay queen will come disturbing for a match, when they left.. I'll continue my work till midnight.

Then I sleep by 3 or 4am..

The most interesting aspect was that I can decide to travel on a Monday morning when everyone is busy going to office... Lols.. To greet my family . I'm with my Laptop and modem always and I'm good with it .

But my only challenge was that, people mistake me for YAHOO Boys because of the way I check my phone always online. And as a fresh young man with some funds without going out early in the morning to office. But I care less about people, so far my bank alerts is ringing.


This is my life as a freelancer!

You can start a small scale Haulage with it, meet some of this market women, don't feel too big to discuss with that customer of yours you buy foodstuff from. They source their goods from farms and remote settlement or mile 12 which they need a reliable vehicle to transport for them. Your bus still being in good condition is a bonus as they will be confident their goods reaching it's destination in due time.
I'm a graduate of Electrical Electronics Engineering and recently just done with NYSC but jobs ain't fort coming so I've been gathering logistics on how to start this Haulage business myself cos I have a Dodge Ram 3500 van laying around doing nothing, so I thought I'd just tune it up and start this small Haulage thing. My choice of goods to haul are those that won't cause my bus to deteriorate quickly I.e plantain, Gari, watermelon, processed fish, provisions etc. Avoid water secreting goods as they cause damage.
My Intel has it that a bus load of plantain from Ore to Lagos cost 30k to 35k tho I know there's more to this but my research is still ongoing.
