As a married man, don't try to have any serious relationship with any girl/lady
Gbam!!!

Baba your head dey there.
E dey cast person well well
If you want to do anything outside, a pickup girl like in the pool or club is better.
One time thing.
Also, have a regular girl for Norma relationship is far costly and don’t worth it for married folks.
You pay her house rent, buy fridges or tv etc at the end of the day, na one small boy go come dey knack her for there

Will you call someone on a 500k/mo gross rich?
If not,why are they the ones doing all these?
How are they funding these lifestyles on a regular?
I believe heavy stealing at place of work.
Bro, there is high stealing and corruption in both the corporate organizations and government jobs.
It is only the jobless and private business owners who are mostly struggling.
On paper, I can say that I earn the most salary per month in my church but my fellow church members who are earning 300/350k per month are buying brand new cars, I mean brand new cars, buying properties, funding expensive lifestyles with numerous gfs.
The one that even baffles me is the one earning a meagre 70k per month with coscharis, logistic manager in charge of bus movement and fueling.
He bought his second car for this year as at April when I was at home.
Just April oooooo. Within 4 months 2 cars. A keep and a sienna for his wife while me I still they struggle with my tuke-tuke wey I don dey use since early last year.
Dem dey even dey make me they look like an idiot sef.
Nigerians wey go go heaven no go many. Walahi….dat one me I know because there is heavyyyyyyy stealing, manipulation of receipts and forgery of signatures at place of work.
People like us wey no dey management position na labu (laborer) na him we be.

You didn't marry that guy cos of religious differences but for stability. You don't even love your husband but your ex undecided. You can only deceive yourself not us. You knew all these would happen. I mean, how can you goan stay at your ex sister place? sad. You think we're fools here abi?
Its your husband i pity, he allowed your ex to eat what was left for him even after taking the main share(Virginity) grin. You can never be contented. You don't deserve marriage.

If you notice lately, there's nobody that craves more for marriage than hoes and the funny thing is, they can't maintain it.



As our Ancestors would say "Only a wonderFOOL man marries a woman who still keep in touch with her ex".
grin

Come to think of it.
I hear people say most times that reason women cheat is because they marry who is ready and not who they want……..A big Lieeeee.
Believe me, even if this woman had married the person she loves, there will still be tons of reason to cheat anyway.
Ohhh, she fell out of love.
She saw someone else who she really fell in love with.
The real love is broke hence she cheated.
He is not good on bed enough
He doesn’t have time for her, always working.
The list is endless reason why I do say only a fool takes relationship or a woman serious.
Even the useless broke first love who doesn’t have a good apartment rather than to be staying with his aunt who have chopped breakfast if he had married her.
It was a deliberate action. They planned to meet in her sister’s place.
Why didn’t she tell her hubby where she was going to sleep? Is that not what a wife will tell hubby?
That honey, we closed late or I finished the interview late and won’t be able to come back home today, maybe I should rent a hotel or sleep in Mrs so so so house. Abi no be so?
So the first man is even so broke that he can’t rent a decent hotel to bang his ex? So much for being a an Ex.

Definitely Rwanda at some point, February/March works too, I'm basically trying to get enough travel experiences under my belt between now and end of next year.
No problem then.
I have traveled to some extent - Dubai, India, Italy (Napoli), Angola, Namibia, Congo DR, ghana, Togo and some other little ones and I can speak to a little French and Portuguese.
So I guess being co-travelers will help each other.

TravelRe: “it’s The First Of Many Visits For Me” - Chinemerem Ikegbunam by emmaodet: 4:54am On Aug 17, 2022
parkvega:
Seasoned journalist, Chinemerem Ikegbunam, needed to unwind after a work-filled week so he paid a visit to Park Vega Waterpark.
According to Chinemerem, “I came with my colleagues. We dropped our camera, microphone and other equipment when we saw the magnificent facilities. We quickly went into the dressing room and changed into our swimsuits because the waterpark was so alluring❤️.

The journalist and his crew became instant celebrities in the park assistants as they cracked jobs over the water volleyball and basketball court.

“The truth is I came as a reporter but ended up enjoying every bit of the time I spent in Park Vega Waterpark. It was indeed a fun-filled experience. I can’t say which attraction is my favourite because I had a swell time having fun. This is my answer, all the spots were my best attraction. From the kiddies (Aquatower and Splashpad) to the big boys’ and girls’ water attractions (Multislides, Blackhole, Spacehole, Wave pool, activity pool) even the restaurant and the bar). I was served chicken and chips. That is enough reason to return���. He said.

“At the wave pool where we have lifeguards. I wanted to try out a trick I saw in a movie and before I could find out if it would be successful or not the alert lifeguard, who must have read my mind, discouraged me ��. It was quite an experience.”
Hello bro
Please where is the location of the park? And phone number

lol.....i get where you are coming from.
If these are the only countries in the world, there may not be capitalism because ven your US won't be able to bully the remaining 3 and will literally look like the remaining 3 economically.
So there won't be any reason for migration in the first place.
To answer your question, i will stay put wherever i find my self out of the 4.

Yes, you know your true friend when you're low, not above. Even those you've helped and treated like a brother, will come out of their shell and make you regret ever helping.

Then you'll understand why after God created humans in his own image he regretted it instantly. Infact a man's worse enemy is other men, not women, because a woman can only use a dumb man. Its men you share a plate with.

This is where humility come into play. When one is humble and live in such a way that doesn't makes money his identity, then even if he becomes broke, it won't affect his public image, because its only him that knows if he is broke or not.

The saying that "pride goes before a fall" is for arrogant people, not those with the virtue of humility.
Hmmmmmmmm

My ex-boss, for example, worried not about money, but that he doesn't time to spend with his family, that how he wishes he is strong and young enough to do certain things e.g run a marathon, and how he must keep working to maintain the affluence his family is used to. If you are rich, you must maintain that lifestyle, or else, it would be grace to grass, which is like heaven to hell.

All the people you have oppressed go laugh you tire, your kids and wife may turn against you because they do have oppressed others thinking you won't go broke one day, hanging out with some certain friends will become impossible due to a downgrade of your social level. In fact, a wealthy lifestyle is upward ever, downwards never.
grin
Again, you are right.

The fear of not falling will be an external painful race.
I remember a time when I was out of job and found myself entangled with struggling.
Never knew my childhood friends who were struggling were envious of me.
They started throwing subtle jabs at me, they gradually became bold and started coming out of their shells.
All what had been in their minds for years, the one you helped with money one or two times but cut him off when he has become a regular nuisance of begging, the one that looks you enviously carrying a woman he wished he is the one dating her etc. they started asking me how did I mismanaged my money? If it was them, they know what, what and what they would have invested in that will make them blow, I didn’t use the opportunity I had wisely blah blah blah

I know how painful that can be. I studied in a very elite university and everyday was almost like depression. Kids of 19 coming to class with posh cars, skin as bright as the sun, and even if they decide to drop out, suffering will never be a portion.

I felt like going to naija, grab my papa for throat, and change am for am straight. grin And I was the few black dude in that school. The rich kids will now form clique amongst themselves and shut it out to others. Class then was more of a fashion parade that actual learning.

But deep down, I knew my time de come, or if its not me, my kids will enjoy such. These kids had parents that worked hard, and if yours didn't do it for you, do it for your kids. But there are things I saw that made me realise that rich or poor, we all suffer equally.

A wealthy British man approached me on time and appeal to be friend with his son, that his son is so shy and insular. This son is literally what Nigerians will call a mumu. He is not dumb, but a didirin. Slap him, he will probably go home and call the police. He fear pass chicken. The price of over-protection and over-providing.

One wealthy Brazilian girl is so scared of facing the world. She always tell me how jealous she is when she sees people who are confident and hustle their way, that they can survive in life unlike her that relies on her parents wealth.

Her parents also were deeply worried that their timid daughter will run down their company after they hand it over to her. Because of my confidence, self-assurance and individuality, lots of these folks even with their wealth wanted to be friends, just to know how to live life being strong and tough.

It was easy to be their friend because I don't care if your father is Bill Gates, I no send you. If we go out, I'll pay for myself, and treat you like every normal person. I respect myself alot, so being my friend didn't burdened them in anyway.

So life gives us different coin, but you'll be naive to think they others don't have their own struggles. Everybody does. Some of these kids are in what I'll describe as being on an "existential drip". Take away the drip (their parental support) and you'll see that you're better than them in everything that matters.

Many have parents that were not there in their life due to the pursuit of wealth. And so on. So my guy, life will give you all the reason to go home and punch your father in the face asking him, "why you fork up"? grin but don't ever think it's greener on the other side.
Pansophist, all you wrote are totally correct.
I experienced everything at the high school level and it was a painful experience for me.
Went to one of Nigeria’s elite schools in the 90’s.
My parent tried their best to give me the best, took loans from cooperative just to make sure I became a person better than them in life.
It was a 2-edged sword.
In one area, it exposed me to a different life and mentality.
Those rich kids always forming cacus and won’t mingle with we the struggling ones.
Most of us from the poor homes literally had problems with our parents.
You know I once wrote in one of my comments like 2/3 years ago how I do challenge my dad that where was he when his mates were making money? It was the oppression, humiliation we faced at school.
We were just out of place.
Nobody likes you. The teacher doesn’t like you nor recognize you because your parent are not giving him money or gifts.
The hostel warden doesn’t also.
Your colleagues don’t also.
I went to NNPC primary school also at Mosimi.
The rich kids avoided us totally.
At a point, my dad told my mum he regretted taking me to the elite high school because it changed me at home.
And this thing also lingered and affected my relationship with women (the going to the elite school), it made me really struggled with relationships after secondary school.
Right from the time I was transferred from a local JSS school to this elite Senior secondary school, I noticed I was just floating relationship wise.
I was neither here nor there. I was too exposed to date the average ladies from the poor homes that my colleagues from my background were busy dating without any issue( girls from very very poor homes, from illiterate families, children of local market women etc). I couldn’t. I was forming levels why the ladies I like or love were not ready to date me. They were avoiding me. They don’t want to associate with me.
So relationship wise, I was neither here or there. Just floating and frustrated.

People prefer flying not really because of the urgency of whatever they're going to do, but rather due to the ever increasing risk of traveling by road in Nigeria. Prior to now, that 70k would be sufficient for a return ticket. It's much for a one-way flight that's less than 1 hour.

Broad day light thieves who are looking at the slightest opportunity to convert the heavy loans they are owing china into their own by seizing it when the war starts just like how they stole Russia 300b dollars, stole afaghanistan billions, Syria, Lybia, Iraq etc.

If not for northern agenda, everyone knows that it is smarter to borrow and fix electricity than railways. Stable electricity will significantly transform Nigeria's real sector. Nigeria was doing fine without railways.
