Gentlerespect76:
Dear Nairalanders, can I possibly use 5w 40 synthetic oil as opposed to the normal 5w 30 oil without causing harm to the engine of my 2007 Toyota Highlander?

This lockdown has created so many problems. The 5w 30 isn't available where I am. Please someone should help out a brother. Thanks.

Good evening house, a friend wants to go into uber or bolt after this lock down issue is done but is not sure of the car to use. I am not into the biz so will like some recommendations.
I told him I have hear of accent, elantra, civic, city, corolla, cerato, etc
So please which is the best car to use ie fuel economy as well as maintenance.

phranco:
Good day fellow nlanders, happy quarantine, i wish this pandemic ends soon let our normal hustle continues. I need advice and suggestions from the gurus in the house. Am planning to partner with uber/bolt with at least 3 tokunbo vehicles. The issue am having is whether to choose between rentals or HP for this business. On rental basis, I want to put it on 25k weekly, 20k security deposit in case of default, then sell off as savage after 2 years. Or HP with 250k down payment . pls house which of these options will be suitable for this business , I need ideas and suggestion before I make decision pls. Guide me through the advantage/disadvantage of rentals / HP, and which is more preferred. Your criticism, suggestion and advice are welcomed. Thank you house.

BAZ001:
With a mechanic or your mechanic?
I doubt if your personal mechanic will do that to you.
There are some good Nigerians out there though the percentage is low.
I don't believe average Nigerian is greedy , average Nigerian is hungry and looking for food , so when they see opportunity dey want to over feed. Poverty mentality
Same thing with our politicians - they keep packing money cos of fear of being poor after d tenor . Money dey can't spend in life time cos there mindset hasn't change.

Same way you go to parties and you see guys struggling to pack 6 bottles of coke home cos it's awoof, just 600 naira. They drive big cars n live in lekki this same people can afford cartons of juice but the mindset

lol
when i see people selling fixed deposit and mutual funds to people who cant drop 50M and above
i just see it as a joke
one Million naira invested in agriculture and certain trades with good compounding can be worth be 10 to 20M in 5 years
they should keep all those mutual funds advice for the ultra rich, not someone looking for how to grow their pocket money

AngryIgboMan:
There is no bigger business or investment in Nigeria right now than spending the money on yourself. Yes. You heard me right. Spend the money on yourself. Its better you look at yourself in months and see the effect of the money than invest it in one nonsense that is bound to fail. At least you will look fresh and wear nice things.

In Nigeria from the moment you try to set up a business, everybody will start hustling you. From your contractors to your managers down to the dealers themselves! All of them see you as the gateway to their imaginary billions!

You see most of these so called businesses you think that are successful? If they tell you what they really do behind to succeed and stay afloat, you will choose to remain poor. Am not talking about rituals or any form of diabolic thing. Nope. Thats nonsense. Am talking about the real realities of staying afloat in a hostile business environment like Nigeria. You have to be mean, ruthless and evil to succeed.

I wouldn't know how to explain this further. Strong Cartels know better.

Most people here forming jack of all trade in one business or the other don't know jack. All they know is fantansies and utopian mega successes.

In Nigeria, what most people know is how to give you juicy business proposals because you are willing to bankroll it. If you are observant, they are usually nice and sweet at the beginning. They will show you all the upsides of the proposed business without showing you the downsides.

But once they succeed in separating you from your money, the real demon in them will come out. Stories here and there. Mistakes here and there. Losses here and there. Ask them why they didn't see and state all these in the proposal they brought before. They will be looking at you like morrons.

Nigerians are very terrible in keeping promises. They take a lot of things for granted. Thats the reason why a morron will approach you to take your car and drive on Uber, wreck it in 2 weeks and still be looking at you like an imbeccile without any purpose in life.

The worst mistake you can make in business in Nigeria is to LEAVE IT TO SOMEONE TO MANAGE. It will take a very special grace and anointing to get a focused, determined person that is willing to work with you long term. Most human beings especially Nigerians are wired to be Wicked, Evil, Self Centred, Greedy and Covetous. All they know about is themselves.

I have had a friend that opened a restaurant business in Owerri. Months in Months out, losses will be turning in. I told him to mount CCTV without his workers knowing. What he discovered shocked him. Everyday, almost all his workers came with there coolers and were carting away food to feed themselves and their families. They did this in collusion with the manager who was sleeping with most of the girls there. So, how will he talk?

I wanted to suggest to him to use Gamalin 20 or Corrosive aerosols to poison them so they will die gradually. But I was serving God then. That was how this business went down.

So to the brother that has 800k, I will advise you to go and keep that money in your bank account. If you even try to buy a Nigerian used car, they may heartlessly sell a melon or snake oil to you that will pack up in months.

If you dont have any solid business idea you can establish and be managing yourself, take that money and spend on yourself. Everyday withdraw 5k and go and eat cat fish peppersoup and Nkwobi with better palm wine. Its a better investment.

When I made similar money that you have though mine is higher, I ran away immediately and setup a fish farm with 4 GEPPEE Tanks. I have enough fish that will last me for the next 10 years if I manage it well.

This quarantine period, I simply quarantine 3 catfish into my stomach everyday with 3 bottles of Gulder. What else can I ask God?

northbird:
Boss, as per me o, if I had 800k - 1m , na to gradually move away from the Uber/ BOlt thing.

A whole 800k to buy a second hand car and put it again under the SLAVE MASTERS ( Uber n BOlt)

A car under UBER N BOLT is not an ASSET.

It keeps deprecating week in week out.

Heck, the system is highly volatile and unpredictable,

Look at, these two weeks now, it means zero returns on investment.

Look @ guys DT used financing to buy their cars, is that not trouble.

xana101:
thanks bro. I pray God will direct a good driver to me. Can’t afford to make mistake. U know how very difficult it is to save from Uber even if u are driving ur own car.

contumely2:
We have many cars in Nigeria but no sales. Despite selling close to cost price, just to have turnover. Tens of millions tied down.
Everything is dull.

What else can we import? I have someone in New York.

It's getting me frustrated.
Please contribute.
