Bad idea. The tech isn't there yet. And any large gambling company will try to hack.

If you actually go, and this uncle does as he said, please show gratitude. Get a master's in nursing, and make sure that man is well taken care of in old age. Make sure his kids (even if they're little j3rks) are doing alright too. And pay it forward. Bring someone over like your uncle did.

Follow your plan, uncles wife can instigate issues that will turn the good heart of your uncle anticlockwise.
This is another layer of trouble. Even if the uncle is cool, the wife might not be. She could be a bigger user than the uncle, or feel the husband has no business helping his own family. She may even resent the ease of his niece getting to America and potentially getting a good job. The wife could also be a loser that wants house help, so she can feel "rich." Insecurity and jealousy are a disease.

She's tall for her age. If she was in the US, coaches would almost be begging her to join the basketball team.

If you decide to go, please protect yourself any way you can. Educate yourself about legal options, protection, and any social resources in the area you'll be living. Also, try to ensure you're a legal immigrant. And make sure you have resources to fly home.

Again, no one is encouraging her to flee even if there is war.....I was just trying to project a moderated level playing narratives.

FYI:
Nothing guarantees her a legal status in the US, not even her Nursing degree.
No, it doesn't guarantee her anything, but neither does an uncle she doesn't even know. She has a better chance at a good life banking on nursing. She can also go to Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK. If she's willing to tough it out in remote areas, she can opt to do short-term contracts abroad, make a ton of money, and stay in Nigeria living like royalty and only working a few months out of the year. The bottom line is nursing gives her options. The "uncle" is just a user who could compromise her future.

So, don’t discard the opportunity from a distance and default automatically to the worse case that could happen…..the truth is, in America more often than none, the worse case don’t happen, Europe is a different case though.
This woman is not fleeing war. There's no reason for her to even entertain this risk. She's headed for nursing school, and on her way to legal status and a high-paying job from the first day she enters the US.

Nothing here say, she should not be cautious; but we should not default to the worst case scenario here.
America isn't Disneyworld.

And even if the uncle never harms her, you have to look at the reality that he likely won't finance her education, and will have her there illegally. She also likely won't be earning much money if any, so what is she getting out of it?
Travel › Re: Travelling To USA Or School Of Nursing??pls Advice Me. by Cousin9999: 5:07pm On Feb 01, 2022
Even without considering the scamming risk, why be a nanny when you can be training as a nurse and getting valuable experience?

There's also the issue of the visa. This "uncle" is likely to have you there illegally. That will ruin your chances of legally working abroad in a good position.

If the offer from the uncle in US is genuine, I doubt if he will be 'trapped'. This is the US, and it is in the best interest of the uncle to act legally and pay fair wages to his/her laborers. Yes, she can face deportation if ratted out, but the Uncle will face more severe consequences including also deportation if they are not yet citizens and/or imprisonment, fines, payment of back wages, etc.

And if she is abused, she stands a chance of getting a U or a T visa in the US as long as she report the abuse to the authorities and cooperate with law enforcement as they investigate and prosecute the abuser.
So you want this woman to risk being tr4fficked for the possibility of a related visa?

She was a pretty girl before, and she's still pretty.

There are inexpensive ways to reduce the appearance of those marks. And it doesn't involve bleaching.

But really, there's at least a few million guys that would be happy to simp her with/without that mark on her face.

Nah. I just think it's a weak argument to claim "they just don't know." It's not the 70s. There are people sitting in villages next to a goat, on their iPhone. I know there are places untouched by technology, but that's not who we're talking about.

No disrespect at all.

To people saying that some people actually believe this due to propaganda and ignorance...

The ignorance stems from racism. They choose to have a certain attitude and choose to neglect accessing information. It's 2022. You can literally go online and someone is streaming/publishing their entire life any day of the week. It's been that way for at least the last 20 years.

Oyinbos are massively insecure and psych0. They want to believe Africans and any other black people are living a certain way (e.g. poverty or unhappiness). It makes them angry and miserable to think otherwise. They try to convince themselves of all kinds of nonsense. No amount of education/information can fix people with those kinds of m3ntal problems.

Oyinbos are also jealous of African/black culture and people, and our impact. They try to undermine it in various ways, e.g. appropriation, downplaying, and negative images/ideas. The same people pretending to be ignorant of a culture or saying something negative will be the same ones exploiting it.

Many oyinbos, frankly, lack the m3ntal capacity to not be racist. They actually find it hard. I've never in my life met a African/black person that considered it a massive, complicated, stressful task. But oyinbos are so dúmb, sick, and evil that it requires tremendous effort. lol

He may not be a racist.
He's racist in addition to being ignorant and dūmb as rocks.

But he represents the average m0r0n that uses TikTok. You can't expect much from people who don't have the attention span and mental capacity to watch stuff for longer than a few seconds. lol

That said, devoting energy to racists isn't productive. It's like arguing with a farm animal. And the person who typed the comment is probably either a nonblack child trolling, or they're a nonblack troll living in some flyover US state or flyover country (they're irrelevant). They might even be a self-hating black American (pretty common), or tragic múlatto.

Let her go. You can certainly do better.

Hopefully, she finds the right person that inspires healthy love and commitment in her. You don't have to be that person.

3. They're probably racist. Yes, I know they're black, but they don't.
