You have to focus on yourself. Help in the little way you can but don’t jeopardize your own life for anyone even your sibling. I’m taking from experience. The bastard I was helping through school couldn’t even come out in school was busy spending the weekend I’m elegushi while I was wasting my life doing menial jobs. He did all is best to convince me not to enroll for partime so I could continue funding him. Use ur head

pansophist:
And you know what? If you don't stop now, twenty years later, it will mostly continue like this. Dependants usually do not voluntarily leave a fruitful host. You'll have to put a stop before they seat up, otherwise, you just choose to suffer permanently.

PoliteActivist:
*Politeness*
We all know what you'll do: you'll take care of your brother - because firstborns are generally incapable of putting themselves first. Then other needs will arise from him or other siblings and the cycle goes on. You are not going back to any school

Vello:
I sacrificed my youth for family. Sponsored one outside the country and another through school (not fully though) gave all my salaries to elder sister for months so she could further her education. I sacrificed all my savings for entire family so we could be the envy of other families. I later secured admission to Unilorin years later, same sister called me bastard when I begged for N5000 loan so I could sustain myself till after exams.

I wish I hadn't remembered we were family

I wish I were as wise as I am now.

Those same siblings today are my strangers far as I'm concerned. They don't even know whether I live or dead. They don't care.

Sacrificing for family is good but, never at the expense of your life goals, dreams and ambition. They would only respect you for what you make of yourself and never for what you do for them.

Far as this topic goes, the choice is yours

UnfairLife7:
I didn't quote you base on your epistle to the person. I am telling you how your country had killed lots of potentials

Acidosis:
Nobody will respect you because of what you did some 25 years ago. If your life turns out bad because you spent your youthful days trying to lift others, be rest assured that the people you "lifted" will someday become tired of your excesses. More often than not, they'll ignore you and your calls.

People (siblings inclusive) will only respect what you make of your life and career, not the school fees you paid 35 years ago.

Just make sure you don't become poor or a liability in the process, else...!

Gadafii:
battles are not won only on battlefields, you can stay at the front in building Nigeria, my japa doesn’t stop me from building Nigeria as well, but I want to build the country from far away, I don’t know why you are bothered to have consider me a coward just because of japa, if you are honest with yourself you I’ll agree the present crops of leaders are not sincere about building the country, but you are blinded either by religion or tribe, Dey your Dey make I Dey my Dey no suppose hard you

Acidosis:
This yeye question needs to stop in 2023. Do this or go back to your ex yhen yhen as if your audience ever told you they've got only one ex.

Birdbyrde440:
And does Nigerian women have that motherly submissive and humble instincts?
Its gender equality era.
Go and buy your own gun or sword and defend yourself.
We are all equally created and have equal rights and abilities.
Stop privatising profits and socializing cost/expenses.

UnfairLife7:
i personally know two persons finding it difficult to secure a reasonable job in Nigeria after school, luckily they got helped to relocate. They're doing pretty fine now for themselves supporting their families at home and established businesses

greenermodels:
Honestly, Nigeria have never worked, Nigeria is not working and Nigeria would never work, let's peacefully break up this country so that smaller, more manageable true nations can emerge from it.

...with fibonacci retracement at 25 Fib level of the month, there are 6 more days to the New Year when demand for chickens will be higher than supply. Hence, need to be a bit patient. To buy chicken at bargain price, look towards the new year when 20/23 moving average will be lower than 20/24 EMA.

Merry Christmas to you all!

PLAN YOUR TRADES AND TRADE YOUR PLANS

Raalsalghul:
Very important especially in broadening one's mind and exposure. No be say person go dey one place: work, work work from year to year.

I'm always at my happiest when in new places learning about new people, their history, cultur, food, language and practices.

My happiest moments this year na the one week I do holiday for Malaysia.

MT:
Please Japa to guarantee the future of your kids, like they always say.

Don't you know you will make 10 times the amount you are currently earning in a year just in a month abroad?

Once you finish schooling abroad, you will be working in top organisation abroad, and you will be in serious money.

Within few months, you will build minimum of two skyscrapers in your village.

Anyone that dissuades you is your enemy and do not ever listen to them.

But before you do, I will be interested in your real estate properties. Where is the location and how much do you intend to sell?.
What are the other things you have for sale? I might get you the buyers that will quickly get them off you.

Let us talk business.

Seun my darling, my handsome bulgy eyes billionaire, oya chop 💋 kiss.

Don't thank him. He's a learner. He should host this site on a private server. Imagine how cloudflare is dragging his blokkos on top and abuse he overlooked? https://www.google.com/amp/s/punchng.com/nairalands-server-taken-down-because-i-overlooked-an-abuse-report-says-founder/%3famp
Does cloudflare know how many mad people we are caring for on this site?
Putin or Kim Jung Un can't manage nairaland
It's extremely crazy here!

Tanks and armored vehicles can still move after getting hit and even with their crew killed. The driver compartment in tanks is usually separated from the one used by the rest of the crew. Plus tanks are driven very differently from cars. The driving method differs from tank to tank.

That said, there was a video I saw sometime of an Ukrainian US-made tracked APC that was still moving even after getting getting hit by a Russian drone or Kornet ATGM missile. it moved for three to four seconds before coming to a stop. This was even though everyone in the vehicle was dead or dying after the hit. (A Russian drone recorded the event and remained in the scene for a while. No single person ran out of the APC.)

Also, tanks don't need to be penetrated to be destroyed or to even kill the personnel inside. Plus the Yasin 105 being used is a tandem-style weapon. The front pointy part penetrates the tank and the second explosive blows inside the tank. From the videos, I suppose that the explosion we see is the first one and not the second one. The second one happens inside the tank.

Nevertheless, Hamas doesn't hang around to see the damage because neighboring Israeli tanks, infantry, and aircraft can respond within seconds. That's why they run immediately after firing.

Whichever happens though, we can all agree that the Israeli soldiers inside those tanks are definitely not having a good day.

Vl3ly:
it can't stop immediately since it is no motion

Ibime:
The Gulf countries are too rich and too few in population to allow hot headedness or militarism dictate their foreign policy

Only 6m of Saudi 30m population are Saudis, the rest are immigrants

Only 300k of Qatar 3m population are Qatari, the rest are immigrants

Only 1m of UAE 10m population are Emirati, the rest are immigrants

Only 1.4m of Kuwait 4.5m population are Kuwaiti, the rest are immigrants

Only half of Bahrain 1.5m population are Bahraini, the rest are immigrants

50% of Oman are immigrants

Of the native populations of these countries, half are millionaires and the other half are very comfortable and all will run at the sound of gunshot. The Indians and other immigrants will be the first to run

So what business do these Gulf countries have in doing hothead like Iran that have the population and the HUNGER to fight. Their demographics are not war demographics simple.

Their Kings know what is best for them and are towing the correct route of diplomacy, trade and soft life because none of them are built for war. That's why they have security pacts with USA and will call USA the minute Kuwait for example is invaded by Saddam.

shoodboi2:
Lieutenant Colonels command battalions and Colonels command brigades. A battalion has around 600 men while a brigade around 2000. If Israel has lost this many top commanders along with lots of Majors and Captains, then is it possible that it's not lost hundreds of Sergeants, Corporals, and Privates?

Yet, Israel keeps lying that it has lost just 100 men.

shoodboi2:
I am thinking of starting a scrap metal business where I'll travel to Gaza to pick scrap metal from destroyed Israeli tanks for export. Because Hamas won't just stop destroying Israeli tanks. This is what Hamas has done again:

Why do you guys talk this way?

Nazgul:
The question you should be asking is how much does a bank manager earn in Nigeria?

If you must know, no bank in Nigeria pays their branch managers up to N1m. On an average, they earn between 500-600k. (That's about $600 not pounds o)

A skyscraper window cleaner in the UK earns about £23,000. With that amount, you can live comfortably in the UK.

Aside the risks involved in the job, I won't say he made a bad choice.

FoolishBoy419:
Make it 20% and I will agree.
