If you have a perishable product at it's near it expires date, won't you sell it as discount or allow it to spoil completely?

Good morning everyone, Happy New Year!
I am so happy to be here because this issue has been bothering me for about 3 weeks now.
I want to purchase a drone (Dji mini 3; it was even with a free 128 GB memory card 😭 ), I placed the order but I couldn't make payment because I didn't know the master card wouldn't work and the money was in my sister's account because I don't have an ATM card.
She had a little issue with her bank also because she exceeded her daily limit, so my transaction was pending.
She rectified the issue, but something funny 😄 happened.
I placed the order Dec12, the price was $512 and #407,000...
For people who use Aliiexpress very well, you are aware there is a 20-day span to make payment.
I had about 4 days for the order to expire, and then; I noticed that when I placed the order, the dollar was around 790 and then it was 904 when I was trying to make payment, so it was still $512 but changed to #460,000.
That's a lot of increment, yeah?
Now, that particular store doesn't have that product anymore, another store has it but it's still approximately $512 and #460,000.
Then, I noticed that there is $80 off if one is using a Gtbank or Uba dollar master card.
So my point is I'll keep saving till I get 460k because I have 420 at the moment but everything I am hearing about this shipping and delivery is scary because this is all my money 💵 oh..lol...
And then, do you think that $80 dollars off is feasible?
Please, just advise me, the prices of drones in Nigeria are too high.
If there is a WhatsApp group, I don't mind being added 09017278285
Thank you.

custom will confiscated your drone and you will be visiting one police station to another station to acquire drone permit

Why not buy it here in Nigeria. There are lots of salers who have those drone.

In Nigeria, 5 Habits That Can Make You Go Broke

In the intricate dance of personal finance, individuals often find themselves grappling with habits that, unwittingly, lead them down the precarious path of financial instability. The choices we make in our daily lives, particularly concerning money, play a pivotal role in shaping our financial futures.

This exploration centers on a critical aspect of financial well-being — the five habits that, if left unchecked, can pave the way to financial hardship. Understanding and dissecting these habits is not merely an exercise in financial literacy; it is a proactive step towards cultivating a resilient and secure financial foundation.

Impulse Spending:
Impulse spending is a pervasive habit that can significantly contribute to financial instability. This behavior involves making unplanned purchases without careful consideration of the consequences. Whether it’s succumbing to the allure of sales, purchasing items just because they are trendy, or engaging in retail therapy, the financial impact of impulse spending can be profound.

Many people find themselves swayed by the momentary satisfaction of acquiring something new, only to face buyer’s remorse later. This habit can erode savings, increase credit card debt, and hinder progress towards long-term financial goals.

To combat impulse spending, individuals need to cultivate self-discipline and create a realistic budget. Tracking expenses, prioritizing needs over wants, and implementing a waiting period before making significant purchases are effective strategies. Developing a mindful approach to spending can help break the cycle of impulsive financial decisions.

Living Beyond Means:
Living beyond one’s means is a habit that involves spending more money than one earns, often leading to a reliance on credit cards, loans, or other forms of debt. This can create a precarious financial situation with long-term consequences. Maintaining a lifestyle that exceeds financial capabilities not only depletes current resources but also jeopardizes future financial security.

Individuals living beyond their means may struggle with debt repayment, incur high-interest charges, and find it challenging to save for essential goals such as homeownership or retirement.

To address this habit, individuals must conduct a thorough assessment of their income, expenses, and financial goals. Creating a budget that reflects a sustainable lifestyle is crucial. This involves distinguishing between necessary and discretionary expenses, cutting back on non-essential spending, and developing a savings plan. Living within one’s means requires a shift in mindset, emphasizing financial responsibility and long-term stability over immediate gratification.

Lack of Emergency Fund
Failing to establish and maintain an emergency fund is a habit that can leave you vulnerable to financial crises. Unexpected expenses, such as medical bills or car repairs, can arise at any time, and without a financial safety net, individuals may resort to borrowing money or accumulating debt. Building an emergency fund that covers three to six months’ worth of living expenses provides a financial cushion and helps prevent going broke during unforeseen circumstances.

Ignoring Budgeting:
Ignoring budgeting is a perilous habit that can set the stage for financial turmoil. Budgeting serves as the financial roadmap, guiding individuals toward their financial goals by providing a clear understanding of income, expenses, and savings.


When this essential tool is neglected, individuals lose control over their spending patterns, making it difficult to allocate funds effectively. Without a budget, it becomes challenging to distinguish between necessary and discretionary expenses, leading to a potential overspending trap.

The consequences of ignoring budgeting extend beyond the immediate impact on one’s spending habits. Without a well-defined budget, individuals may overlook opportunities to save for future goals, whether it be an emergency fund, a down payment for a home, or retirement. The absence of financial planning can leave individuals vulnerable to unexpected expenses, pushing them into a cycle of reactive financial decision-making, often resorting to credit cards or loans to cover immediate needs. Over time, this can result in mounting debt and a compromised financial future.

Furthermore, the habit of ignoring budgeting can hinder the development of financial discipline and awareness. A budget not only provides a snapshot of one’s financial health but also encourages thoughtful consideration of spending priorities. Without this tool, individuals may find it challenging to make informed choices about their money, leading to a lack of accountability and a higher likelihood of succumbing to impulsive spending behaviors. Embracing budgeting is not just about managing money; it is a foundational step toward building financial resilience and achieving long-term financial success.

High-Risk Investments:
Engaging in high-risk investments is a financial habit that, if not approached with caution, can lead individuals down a path of significant financial loss. High-risk investments typically involve the potential for high returns but come with an equally elevated level of uncertainty and volatility. This habit often manifests as a desire for quick and substantial gains without due consideration for the associated risks. Investing without a clear understanding of the market, risk tolerance, and diversification strategies can expose individuals to the possibility of losing a substantial portion, or even all, of their invested capital.

The allure of high-risk investments is often fueled by the prospect of rapid wealth accumulation. However, the reality is that the markets are inherently unpredictable, and high-risk ventures can be subject to extreme fluctuations. Without a comprehensive understanding of the specific investment and market conditions, individuals may find themselves susceptible to emotional decision-making, such as panic selling during market downturns. This emotional response can exacerbate financial losses and, in extreme cases, lead to financial ruin.

To mitigate the risk associated with high-risk investments, individuals should prioritize financial education and seek professional advice. Diversifying one’s investment portfolio and aligning investment choices with a realistic assessment of risk tolerance and financial goals can provide a more balanced and resilient approach to wealth accumulation. The key lies in informed decision-making, strategic planning, and a long-term perspective that considers the potential for both gains and losses in the dynamic landscape of financial markets.

More Hardship Looms For Nigerians As DisCos Set To Increase Electricity Tariff On Jan 1

While the pains of fuel subsidy removal still linger, the confusion surrounding a planned electricity tariff increment starting from January 1, 2024 has compounded the worries.

It was gathered that the officials of the Nigeria’s Electricity Distribution Companies (DisCos) held a virtual emergency meeting recently to formalise and perfect the planned tariff increase.

A source in one of the DisCos, who claimed anonymity, confirmed the development to Daily Trust on Sunday.

The source said: “All has been perfected for the new tariff to take effect from the first of January, 2024.

It is now left for various electricity distribution companies to enlighten their customers on new developments.”

The source said the National Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) had already invited distribution companies for a meeting on the development.
He expressed fear that while it is mandatory for electricity distribution companies to regularly evaluate tariffs every six months, the recent increase would meet customers’ dissatisfaction.

“In fact, we were perturbed by the short notice and how we would reach out to our customers about the increase,” he said.
Asked how much the increase would be, the source said, “No idea so far, but the uncertainty has put us in a difficult situation.”

Recall that in November 2023, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu stopped the implementation of the electricity tariff, insisting on a power sector subsidy.

Speaking on Tinubu’s directive on electricity tariff hikes, the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, said, “The power sector is an industry that is very sensitive to any leader.

“You cannot jump overnight and implement the cost-reflective tariff. I can tell you that till today, the government still subsidises power”.

Woman Who Bragged On Social Media About Her New Job At A Luxury Store Sacked Before First Shift

An online video of how a young woman was sacked by a renowned company in the UK company even before she began her first shift has got many people talking.

Recently employed by Harrods, the lady identified as Akorede but known on TikTok as @korrxss, disclosed that she had not yet started her first shift when she received the notice of termination from the company.

Before the viral video of her dismissal, she had gone viral with a previous video in which she talked enthusiastically about her job at the UK-based luxury department store.

In that first video, she suggested that her social class has shot up because of her new employment, stating at one point:

“I’m dealing with the richest of the rich, who are you dealing with [giggles]?”

@korrxss

Lmk if u want tips on how to get innnn 🥰🥰🤗

But in the second video, her story changes. Sounding disappointed, she told her followers on TikTok that she didn’t even do her first shift at Harrods before she got fired for going on social media.

Akorede wondered who may have sent the footage to the employer after she was fired. She gave the situation further thought and concluded that it taught her an important lesson to avoid posting pleasant news on the internet.

“I got fired! Before I even did my first shift, I got fired. Someone must have sent the video ‘cos I don’t know how they must have found it. I took that video after I attended my induction; I’ve not even attended my first shift.

“That was really sad. I learnt a really valuable lesson; don’t ever tell good news to people or the internet, keep it to yourself. Upon reflection, that was kind of a shitty video; I was just joking and was just excited,” she said in part.

@theshadeborough

Sis really got sacked by luxury store #Harrods before even starting the job, due to a bragging video posted about her new role 🫣👀

Her story has drawn varied reactions online.
