sammiewrite:
Lots of great contributions so far but I want to add that rather than using YouTube and blogs for learning, consider Reddit. So, let's say you want to learn arbitrage, search something like "arbitrage reddit." I'm making this recommendation because with every update, Google is favoring the big publications who most times don't have experience, expertise or authority on the topic they're writing about. Additionally, they're writing for ad and affiliate revenue. In short, they are creating content and not adding (any or much) value. Reddit, however, is the direct opposite: nobody is trying to sell you anything, so whatever opinion you see there is often firsthand and value adding, plus there is a downvote button and the subreddits are heavily moderated.

And I'm sorry I will have to toe the line of your friends too by keeping things to myself. For a different reason, however. From my previous interactions with young people from Nigeria, many lack the mindset, discipline and work ethics. At my stage, I still dedicate at least three hours everyday learning about my industry. How many GenZ can be this committed? The last one I gave a test to read a 3000 page thread on a specific skill on Nairaland felt it was too much, so he never got back to me. So, for me, I feel it is a waste of time sacrificing my time for nothing. Wishing you good luck in your journey.

Thank you for this Sir.
I also frequent Reddit and I even have an account.

As for the discipline and work ethics, I have them. And reading a 3000 page is not a problem for me, it might just take a longer time due to engagements in school.

If you consider changing your mind to help me Sir, I'll appreciate.

Don't give any thief your 250k. Go to YouTube and learn how to use Excel, Google forms, PowerPoint infact Google workspace. Once you have learned it to some extent, register on upwork. Remote jobs are there that pay in dollars and other currencies. You can also learn about website testing. It's usually meant for people in the US and Europe but you can still do it provided you have a good VPN. You would have to register as a US citizen on those websites. I have tried

Thank you Sir.

Do you mind sharing how I can register as a US citizen even though I'm not?

MrBrownJay1:
who you are and how you move around is irrelevant to the issue at hand, you need to associate with people who dont see you as a threat to them.... you also have to understand that you need to focus on living life the right way and build a strong foundation and work hard for whatever you desire. looking at what others have as a benchmark to your own life, would always end in failure. you are not them and they are not you. stay in your lane and go about your own business/speed.

if you dont have 250k, then WORK HARD then save small small and when you have 250k, let that person teach you. dont try to cut corners, dont try to fake/lie your way through life. so get a JOB; any job so that you can cater for your immediate needs, then when you have a JOB, you can seek to better that situation... but until them, you are just wasting your life away seeking for the big prize when you cant even fix your own self.



You have a point but it's not as easy as said.
As a student, getting a job means earning about 10k per month at the expense of my studies.

If others can get opportunities just because they are close with someone, I don't think wanting to be close to someone because of opportunities is a bad idea.

I appreciate your input

Hello people.
I'm in my early twenties in a tertiary institution. I am this gentle guy that is mostly quiet.
I noticed that there are many financially okay guys as young as I am that are doing well unlike me. Now, I'm talking about the ones hustling legitimately.

I also want to be okay financially, but they tend to share information only with those they are close to.
There were updates about Arbitraging, Web 3 airdrop and testnet stuff that I only got to hear when it was too late.
I talk to these guys, roll with them, but they never see me as close enough to carry me along.

Even for those freelancing, they know techniques to get orders fast and constantly but will not share with me. One said I should bring 250k when I'm ready to start freelancing. I don't even have 50k in my name.
Whenever I tell them to "show me way" knowing they do legit stuffs, they tell me they too are looking for way.

Growing up, I was restricted so I suck at making friends and socializing. I have been trying to get better since I left secondary school but my social skills barely improved.

I researched online on my own to get updates but many were scam, overpriced classes/courses e.t.c. Though I have picked up a skill to learn but before I get good and start earning, I'll need sustenance.

Is it too late to improve my social skills in my early twenties? If no, how?
How can I move from just acquaintances to a friend that can be carried along in important things?

Health / Re: Does Penis Enlargement Really Works? by Drella(m): 6:19pm On Oct 24, 2023
ejieddy:
The size of penis needed to have good sex is what 90% of men have. You don't need six inches to satisfy a woman. Much less is enough. You only need the know how. You are just talking about size because of it boosts your self esteem in a way and if this is you, then you are in trouble as a man. How many women do you want to brag to? How many men either? Focus on problem solving and level penis for vagina abeg.

The vagina of a woman gets stretched out either through penetration with big things or child birth. Once it is loose, a 6 incher might not be able to satisfy her.
Even the man will not feel the grip of her vagina walls.

Solution:
Marry a virgin and/or be good with oral and fingers

If I may ask, is tomato paste suppose to be bitter or sour?

She should have sued the sugary developers' tomato paste company and the Nigerian police force for curtailing her freedom of speech and expression.

Kobojunkie:
1. Friendship is a relationship and like all relationships, you have to be willing to step outside of yourself in order to engage the other person on common ground. It typically starts with a conversation and then if you both think you are compatible and hit it off, you can share contacts and so on. undecided
2..True. But acquaintances can serve in the case that friendship is too much for what you need. undecided

Thank you

You can't force anyone person to be your friends however you have to do your due diligence if you want to make friends. You can't simply fold your hands and expect them to drop from the sky for you. lipsrsealed

As I have gotten older, I have come to realize that having acquaintances maybe a better alternative to having friends. undecided

What due diligence is required tho?

Also, friends can be of immense help where acquaintances can't.

Aren't they supposed to arrest sowore for inciting violence during endsar protest.

This same sowore wanted to sieze the international airport, isn't that a coup.

And for the so called social media influencer, he should carry his cross, if he is found quilty, then he should face the music.




Sowore was prevented from leaving Abuja for 2 good years. That's after DSSss totured him.

You are not bothered about how you found yourself among men that normalized cheating and distribution of infections to their wives. But the second the wife leaves them, you start crying crocodile tears. C’mon get out of my sight osiso.

It's not only men that cheat. Even that wife may be cheating discreetly. Na person wey dem catch be thief.

Marriage has ups and downs. You can't always have divorce at the back of your mind incase of conflicts like these.
What happened to forgiveness and reconciliation?

No wonder older generations' marriages last longer than this generation's marriages.

lol thanks my brother, I run as a freelance company, so PHP/Nest, I use them all, but just that I haven't worked with PHP in a while, looking forward to it.

Good day boss.

Quick question Sir.
I'm learning front end web dev. I have working knowledge of HTML and CSS. I'm at the basics of JS.
But styling and designing isn't my thing. I want to do real programming and not be stressing myself about styling, responsiveness and the likes.
Can't I learn backend only? Maybe utilize JS knowledge by learning nodeJS.

People on Reddit said a backend dev still needs to know how frontend works. What do you advise?

so dis mrn around 10am,i was going to meet a frd of mine to see if he can lend me sum money bcus i was 100% broke and cashless due to dis buhari new policy and better hunger dey wipe me...


i was walking behind a man carrying a bag along the busy mbiama market road,then i saw money fell down frm the bag the man was carrying,i quickly moved forward to picked the money and i was still moving bhind him...


one mind said to me"michael...gv the man he money nah.....the other mind said"oboi na better hungry go beat u if u gv dis man dis money..


dats was hw i divert my movement,enter 1 near by store then took cold pepsi and bread to step down,i counted the money and it was 8500(all new note)


my problem now is dat my conscience has nt let me rest since mrn till now,bcus i did nt return the money bk to the man,i have spent jst 500 frm it...


i don't knw the man,if nt,i wud hv given him bk his money ooh....


i no steal the money,nah see i see am pick ooh...

Imagine that you didn't see that man, you got to your friend's house and he lent you 8,500 naira. When you got home, you realized the money was no more on you. You traced it back but another person had picked it.

How would you feel?

Solution:
Since you no fit escape God's punishment, kuku go to the market and buy little foodstuffs at home. At least your belle go full when God begin dey punish you... punishment on empty stomach no good.
