Honestly, the way God wired/programmed Man amazes me. King Solomon has said it all.
The labour of a man on earth is for his wife and family.

And the funniest part of it is that, even when a man decided not to get married after getting that money, he'll still spend the money on women...

It's well with a Man. Nevertheless, a man should still find a time to enjoy his life as well.

Like Dubai after it, Singapore is an experiment by the European owners of the world.
The experiment they have for Nigeria is of a different kind, along the lines of terrorism, kidnapping and depopulation by all means.

So dont go to Singapore and think those people there worked so hard they built such a modern cosmopolitan metropolis.
They were allowed to, just like South Africa is the only nation in black Africa that is allowed to develop.

The European owners of the world choose who is allowed to have electricity , and who needs to be paying ransom to kidnappers and terrorists.
Just like in your house , you choose where to make nice and improve, and areas you want to close down and degrade.

Many dont know that after ww2 when japan had been reduced to rubble, there was talk of rebuilding Japan and many people complained at the time, that what about Africa, so the plan became to rebuild Asia and Africa. By the end of the project Companies like Toyota, sony etc were born out of the dust , and Africa got more military coups and everyday civil wars .

Life on enemy planet has daze like this, its no reason to move to Singapore, you wont escape the the hate no matter where you go, even amongst your own people who have been demoralised cause they think everything they touch turns to shit, not knowing who is actually behind it .

A powerfully European Professor who is one of those that instructs governments worldwide what to do once said, we cannot allow the third world to develop like the western world , cause that will create too many people using too much stuff, he continued to say, that will be like a plague of locust descending on the planet. That is why they have to make everywhere in black Africa except south Africa a depopulation area.

That is why in the face of truth, places like Singapore should really look ugly to the African eye, once you know the truth.

We have been in lock down for almost 1000 years. Paying for the sins of our arrogant fathers who used to be the Europeans until they were pushed out to southern African coast in 1492. And even in this suffer many niggers still acting arrogant looking to add to the sins for their descendants.

To African, Singapore is not a pretty place, its a place that shows all the things you can do, but not allowed to. Dont forget the founders of Europe are now called African and West Indian etc.
Waooooooo

Poverty na Bastard.

I have noticed for some time that most people going on vacation here are Ladies.
Even the tours have gone to in Benin rep, Omu resort and even the tour guide that took us there said ladies are mostly the ones doing tour which brings me to the question WHY? because the life of men are soooo saddled with bills.
Why a woman is thinking of vacation, a man is thinking of renting apartment with that same money, furnishing it, buying a car, family responsibilities, gf, in-laws etc just name it the bills long die that even when you have the money to go for vacation, one spirit go dey advise you for back say you better keep that money because one emergency bill wey you no forsee or plan go just pop up from somewhere.
And to be honest, they always pop up.

Canada disappointed me really. Even sadly, their government will rather pump billions upon billions of dollars to Ukraine, instead of help the downtrodden in their community.
Bro by now you should know the US and her allies are not pumping billions into Ukraine because they love her or to uphold any nonsense democracy.
They are doing it strictly for their own survival.
The aim is simple - whittle down and breakup any impending opposition to the present status like Russia and china because a change in status is an impending doom on them.
These guys are not thinking or fighting for now or present. The whites think far and plan far reason why we see their societies well planned.

I will disagree with you on the bold sir.

It takes intelligence to discover your weaknesses as an entity and take steps to correct them.

At least the Arabs and Chinese know they they are not creative and prefer to outsource and copy.

The fact that we cannot confidently outsource our sector to capable hand due to selfishness is sheer unintelligence to me.

I've seen the benefits of outsourcing with my koro eyes: was fortunate to work at Apapa Port and saw vast improvement when the Dutch company handled it compared to NPA.

Now imagine same strategy for other key sectors of our economy.

And why are we not doing so?

In my opinion, that's a trait of low IQ.

Go through that picture of a wedding you were at the last time, you can see different individuals of varying heights.

Same way, in a class of students, there are the top students and bottom.

Life and the universe we know is not designed to have everything in it uniform.

This principles also applies to the human race where it seems like the Whites/South-East Asians are leading in science, technology and development while the black race is still struggling to provide 24 hours electricity.

Yes, we have a low I.Q and reasoning, still leave like animals and behind everyone else.

I don't see it as something you overthink neither is it your fault that you belong to the species with the lowest brain capacity.

It's just one of those life mysteries we cannot solve: nothing on earth or the universe is meant to be the same, equal, uniform, operating at the same capacity thanks to a number of factors.

Just my theory.

Cc: Emmaodet.
You raised good points bro but then, I don't think we need to have high IQ to have atleast a decent society.

The Arabs are not even that smart to me. They are more like we Africans but they realized their weakness and outsource it to those who are better than them.
I believe we can do that too.
If we can't build refineries, outsource it to Germans. E no dey kill person. No be shame.
If you can't generate electricity, good roads, good schools, good railways, good hospitals etc. Just outsource it to people better than you

I have said it many times that the REALITY that will HIT most of these Nigerian Young Ladies, Most especially GenZ, Same thing applies to all these Yahoo, Fraudsters with Leggings Jeans and Lexus in the nearest FUTURE. They won't be able to Handle it.

The Psychiatric Centers will be filled with too many Patients. Suicide Rates will be High.

Nigeria has no Future, No plans for anybody or anything, You are solely Responsible for your own Life as an Individual.

Even me from the Millennia Generation. When the REALITY hit me Some Years ago. I couldn't believe it. I am extremely strong Physically & Spiritually, Hence i was able to Scale through.
Hmmmmmm

You are very correct.
This generation will record and extremely high numbers of psychiatric patients because many are depressed and suicidal.
It is the side effect of breakdown in family unit.
Humans work best in groups and fail most when we work as individuals which capitalism encourages.
Life is hard but with family, the village, the community, the church by your side, they give you that emotional and psychological support needed when you are down and at your lowest low to not give up and strive to keep pushing because even though today is bitter, joy cometh in the morning.
But all these institutions are failing us. The church doesn't care about you if you are poor and not donating big cash, the community only hails the rich donating to the chiefs and kings, family won't regard you if you are poor.
So people are pushed to the limit where the just give up and snap....suicide or insanity.
Nobody cares what you are passing through as a poor man.
Nobody cares if you don't have a woman to stabilize you emotionally. As a matter of fact, they even mock you more.
Lazy man. You better go and make money etc

SyrusdeHansome:
In this age of technology nd sophistication i'm yet to see a girl that's ready to have something serious with a poor man. Maybe, our moms were the last set that could comfortably do that without thinking of what they'll eat or wear after the marriage. The olden days women married by faith while the ones of this age marry by sight. In those days what u wrote up there was possible but not now. For instance, my dad went for youth service in Edo state, met the daughter of a senior army general nd woo her nd now she's my mom. Dad is a christian but had to join Islam just to marry my mom. They got married when dad was a nobody nd relocated to our state after his program. But that is very rare in this age. So as a poor man it'll also be hard to marry the right person this days.
My dad also married my mum with virtually nothing.
As a matter of fact, it was the money they were given that they used to buy the mattress they slept with on that wedding night. That was how bad it was.
Funny enough, my mum was a graduate.
I do think to myself that the man was very very lucky.
If he had come in this age, even a pepper seller won't touch him with a long pole not to talk of a graduate.
Which graduate go marry you for room wey no even get mattress? He was lucky he married in the 80s

This is very apt. You took this position straight from my brain and wrote them out here.

Trust me. It's not in the price or the advertising.

While I don't like really strong scents I have come to terms with the fact that the price is the worst variable in choosing a perfume/scent.

I am in the market now for a good scent. So much confusion but I am looking at getting something with a strong wooden inclination of Arabian extraction.

A good perfume oil will also do the trick. But make sure it has not suffered extreme dilution.
Exactly bro.
Price is the worst form of determining a good perf.
While oil is good, I still prefer perf.
Oil doesn't travel long. I mean for you to feel oil, it has to be like 1m distance. Though oil last longer on the body compared to perf but perf can be perceived 2m or more away.
Also a good perf will still be lingering in a room some minutes when you have left compared to oil.
I have used aventus blue and black leather and when I wear these perfs, people do say they know I passed a place some minutes before because even though they didn't see me, they perceived my perf and that is a signature there. Communication without altering a sound

I've been thinking about why many women squander their prime and chase good men off, and I think I have a valid explanation for that.

You see, women start life first at easymode, then it gets harder if she misses her chances. Since women begin to bloom like a flower from their teens, it's typical for her to assume life is like that, after all, she has no experience that negates her reality.

With all the multitudes of toasters at her call, media worship, men ignoring her bad attitudes just to have their way with her, this is a perfect recipe for a sad future if she has no guidance or refuses to be guided.

Since men will overlook the bad behavior of a fine girl, she won't notice how bad she had rotten, because her beauty is still covering for her. But as she grows older and does not bloom like before, the softhand from society decreases, and she is left to deal with her mess.

Of course she won't notice her decline in attraction, in her head, she is still as hot as she thought she was years ago, but men are the one to decide that, and men are not seeing her the way she sees herself.

If her character was good, it may be her saving grace, but since society has ignored her behavior because she is fine, being rude is a norm to her, and correcting her may seem like an attack.

In fact right now, pointing out bad female behavior is seen as misogyny. That you hate women. But it's not so. Men don't have the privilege to live in delusion, since society is not soft on us.

There was this American feminist called Norah Vincent. She genuinely believed that men have an easier life than women, and wanted to find out for herself.

Then she went to a doctor who camouflaged her to look like a man, so she can live and experience life as a man. She quitted after a year and a half, even though she is supposed to carry the experiment for a longer period.

Norah talked about how bad women treated her when they thought she was a man, how no one give a shit about men, and how her problems and persons felt so invincible to the society at large.

The lack of seeing men as human, and being inhumane. That experience changed her completely, that she committed suicide later. She wrote a book titled "Self Made man", and it's on Amazon, you can buy it and read about her experiences.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norah_Vincent

I have never seen any feminist talked about her to correct their views that men's lives are very difficult, or correct their stance of always claiming victims. But anyways, what I am pointing at in this story is that lots of women have very bad attitudes and they don't know.

The way they treat men, which makes it harder to settle down with one later, or seeing most men as not worthy enough. A legitly broke factory worker girl doesn't even see his fellow factory worker guy as good enough for her.

Many come to this realization of how bad they let themselves rot, when they use up their youthfulness and life is not as soft as before, but many will never admit that they are their own "village people", because of their ego.

But one thing about life is that, it doesn't care if you're soft on yourself, or live in delusion, or think you deserve Dangote. It's as you lay your mat, you'll lie on it.

Pride always goes before a fall.
Panso thanks for the lengthy explanation.

I fully grab your points but unfortunately, I don't think we can stop this bad trend.
May God help us all

Your comprehension skills is poor.
When a man is at the receiving end, that is when they know he refused to better himself.
Someone once said if you are hustling with your gf and you become successful first, she and the society expects you to support and pull her up but if she becomes successful first, she tells you to double your effort and upgrade else she is gone while the society abuse you that you have decided not to upgrade yourself too else, she has to dump you.
A very crazy world out there but my happiness is that, somehow they will be dealt with too.
Women don't have an idea of what the average man is passing through until it gets to their own male child too.
I know of a woman who always frustrate her hubby when we were young because the man is not financially buoyant.
She will be contacting her ex and sometimes go to meet them for money... Ofcourse we all know things would have happened.
The man always talk, complains, call pastors to wade into the family affairs and family heads etc she didn't really change until her son grew up in age to marry.
Her son is my friend Segun.
Segun struggled to tame down a decent woman because he is a teacher with low income. The mother always disturb, crying and all for Segun to bring home a woman that time and age is going but Segun always explode at her that he is trying his best but most women are not staying.
It was then it dawned on her what the average man is passing through. What she made her hubby to pass through and now her son is seeing shege and their is little she can do to help. She has no money to give Segun to upgrade nor the connection to get him a good job to stand as a man.

What a touching story

Moral lesson

Care and build urself first before any one, the only thing that is constant in life is CHANGE.

Your wife, children and love ones can change at anytime.
Exactly but the society has been deceiving men that they have to put their wives and kids first. That is what makes them men.
They will tell you the best way to know a responsible and caring man is through his wife and kids. That when you see them glowing, happy, enjoying with nice clothes etc then the man is a real man while the man is looking haggard and spent.
I see them alot. Go to alaba and see traders on combats and slippers with big belly and t-shirt while their woman and kids are at home enjoying and glowing. Wife at home less stressed because hubby his taking all the hits and shielding her from life burdens.
She spends her time trying to look beautiful while jobless boys in town admire her and shower her with praises until they get into her panties.
