A 19 trillion dollar economy that can't feed millions of her citizen? That's worse than famine

Stop crying go back to farm.you wont get a USA visa, visa lottery is closed, its too late.Go and make Nigeria great

timesup234:
Aside from America the Nigerian economy will be bigger than that of Canada and Australia by 2050 in purchasing power. That's just 33 yrs from now. Nigeria economy is almost 8 times bigger than that of New Zealand in purchasing power parity. Apart from China who choosed a communist path no colonized country you mentioned have gotten to their full potential. They are actual vassal states of the status quo hence. The global reach of the US. is still undermining their economies. The size the US. economy is bigger than that of Australia 9 times, Japan 5 and Germany 6 times so you see they are still a small fish in the ocean. Meanwhile before you start jumping and rejoicing the wealth of America belongs to the 1% while the rest of the US. are living in depression and also the wealth of America was stolen via global capitalism

So the US and Canada are going to be stagnant until 2050 abi?
Guy the people wey cook your brain and ulter your destiny are here bellow

Good! i knew it was coming to that. You think I didn't read the article before posting? The only reason I even post links from CNN and Mainstream media is because most of you guys can never get it. You all have been brainwashed by mainstream and have been turned into a complete sheep who can't think for yourself. Behind every truthful headline in a mainstream media article comes a lie. If CNN tells you 16 million Americans are hungry the actual figure should be gotten by multiplying the numbers they gave by 3. If they tell you 40% of its food are throw away know they are actually close to famine. Throw food away my ass. Since they have that much food to throw away why do over 40 million American depend on food stamp to be able to feed with the government reducing the amount budgeted for the program everyday[b][/b]. I think I should add more bruises on your face with a serious upper cut. You are my punching bag

Guy, you can't win with timesup234, I actually directed him here from another thread cos I was tired of treating his fvckup. The link he quoted states that America throw away 40% of its food...this guy keeps telling us they are dying of hunger.

I get him time, its snowing and cold outside, I nor get work 2day,I have dealt with people of far more resources than him dem bend, dis guy nor reach,I go finish his data just 10x500mb pictures will zap his MB.I get the Antidot.

timesup234:
Living under their parents? That's what America is known for. Most graduated between 22yrs-35yrs in America still live with their parents. More 35 yrs old in America depend on their parents to house and feed them. Keep living in the American dream since waking up from the illusion is not part of the dream

Exploitation colonialism is the national economic policy of conquering a country to exploit its population as labour and its natural resources as raw material. The practice of exploitation colonialism contrasts with settler colonialism, the policy of conquering a country to establish a branch of the metropole (motherland). A reason for which a country might practice exploitation colonialism is the immediate financial gain produced by the low-cost extraction of raw materials by means of a native people, usually administered by a colonial government. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploitation_colonialism



If you notice, colonised countries rich in resources are experiencing similar problems to ours. The world powers create a perpetual dependency that indirectly leads them creating policies that favour them and lead to our stunted growth and they would ensure that they would keep that cycle going round and round.

So what happened in America,Canada,new Zealand ,Australia etc? cos they where colonized

wonlasewonimi:
My good friend timesup234, I think you missed shiloh 2017, this could have been cured.

timesup234:
We are both doing the same. While you are trying to portray Nigeria as a hell hole I am doing likewise to America, with credible facts. Hunger? You make me laugh. With over 16 million American children going hungry every year the American government should be charged with crime against humanity and sentenced to death by firing squad. Most African countries don't even have a population of 16 million.

http://edition.cnn.com/2017/06/09/health/champions-for-change-child-hunger-in-america/index.html

HUNGER ahaha.you are deluded I swear,only Hunger can put one in such frame of mind as yours.People in Employment in NIgeria are actually Hungry, let alone the Unemployed.How Old are you again? do you have a wife and a young family?
do you pay school fess and manage a household? Im sure you dont, this was how I told a person it might cost up to N15k for a pot of soup the laughed, thats when I realized 60% of posters here are living under their parents!

timesup234:
Nigeria is a trillion times safer than America. A gazillion if there is any word like that. America is a crime and drug infested shithole. The crime taking place in America is more than that of Africa combined together. The black love being slave, what is there in America to defend? White people who own the country are tired and renouncing their citizenship in alarming rate, black immigrant want to die for what doesn't belong to him. There is no city or suburb that is safe in America even though they have the highest number of police. Shootings even take place close to the white house. Black people are brainwashed mofos, America is more closer to hell than heaven.

Thats you summed up right there.You like to be a slave hence you chose this way of talking and refuse to remove the mental slavry from your head,those of us who dont belong to ur school of thought are bosses to more than 100 white people abroad.
Stop talking rubish for typing sake.The Only reason you do not get the true picture of what is going on in Nigeria is lack of statistics being put together and very poor news coverage.My younger brother works at the Fd Berue of stats, thier Office @ Asaba dont even have electricity.
Crimes in the west are western specific and a born out of thier way of life.Them ones in NIgeria are born out of fustration Hunger an Unemployment.
I have lived in both the West and Nigeria for all of my life.The mesuring index should be Jobs,security and healthcare.
Nigeria scores Zero in all.

timesup234:
If these terrible things are indeed happening rampantly then why are you still alive? You people sound and portray Nigeria like a war front when in reality Nigeria is one of the safest place in the world and people go about their daily business peacefully. Kidnapping, robbery etc are blown out of proportion. I laugh when I see brainwashed folks using such words on Nairaland but yet they are still alive and never find themselves in such situation. Enough with all the lies already!

Are you for Real??

RedGold2017:
Lol...thats where you know proper oyinbo man get sense. If you see oyinbo man here sweating under the sun he be tief..hes not here for humanity but to make shitloads of money he can never smell in his own country..from tax evasion to overpriced contracts...thats why u see most oyinbo corporations with ethics stay away from nigeria. We are even helping them build their economy from home..we'll get there someday..the black race will..na small small..

try stay with oyibo for one year and see if you way of thinking nor change

@9jaDoc
Where did I compare 9ja to the US ?
Are you just waking up from sleep ? ??

grossintel:
OK, now I think you are just a secondary school kid trolling about stuff you don't know. I couldn't ignore your comments because it's full of lies and more lies and lies. How can 9m build you a filling station that can yield 400k profit a day? Is it not the same business I'm doing or do you mean drug business? You have no statistics to back that rubbish you quoted. Buying 30k/33k litters of pms alone is about 5m, and that will sell in about 2 weeks with depending on your location with an average profit of 100k except you mix it with SRG. The only profitable products are dpk and Ago, but that depends on your location and scarcity. No way you can justify making 400k daily on a petrol station built with 9m excluding operating costs that can take up 12m on products and a tanker. The best advise I can give the op is to relocate to Canada or Australia than to listen to kids like you.

Ahah U just saw that troll ? Ahah I trashed his issue last night . He went 2 Senegal not the UK . He also said the German concrete needed is 1 inch thick . So this guy has no knowledge of simple addition then he said he is a lawyer . I dug to his past post that's where I discovered he was a phone accessories seller .

justwise:
That is your savings, if you don't save from your earnings how are you able to send money to Nigeria?

If you put it that way yes . But for the purpose of this discus.I'm meant to believe savings here is as money stowed away in your savings account for the rainy day . Of that was not the case them I think my friend used wrong choice of words .

justwise:
How much? And how many times a week/month?

Well he can answer that but in my case I send all my balance to 9ja to strengthen my biz and projects ongoing . I got no need to save money here .

justwise:
Salary= $55K


Expenses:

Rent= $1200

Electric bills $100

Phone bills $70

Car insurance $250

Gas $250

Cable $50

Food $400

Taxes $17000


Total = $19,320


Now $55K take away $19.320 = $35,680

Why are you unable to save $400 a month?

I think you need to take into account what he sends to 9ja as well.

maternal:
This isn't a walt Disney movie where you write your own script. Unexpected expenses are part of life. A serious medical injury and your yearly budget could be wiped out. Again respect yourself. You're being unrealistic.

U r quoting the wrong person go bck to page 1

temitope06:
I'm not disputing this, ppl relocate back home, nothing wrong with that. I'm saying from the tone of what the op wrote, he's only coming back cos of issues with his status.

My comment was countering that which was made against QC1 . Not original poster

timesup234:
Social security is not enough to live on in the United States. Presently someone over 65yrs gets just a bit over $1500 monthly from social security which is unable to pay the rent and bills, thats why people are required to fund a 401k. Most Americans dont even have $5,000 saved in 401k which spells financial disaster when they are due for social security at 65

That system you guys have is strangling I swear . Don't you guys have state and company pension scheams ?

kroger:
You rip what you sow, how can someone for over 25 years cant save 400$ monthly.. From your above assertion you are sunk in credit card debt "you caused it because you were not frugal in ur spending culture hence you have to pay back ". owing back taxes was solely your choice, what you did was an exempt on your W2 which we all know IRS will take what belong to them. I got $8000 on my tax refund last year, " once again you are solely to be blamed"

You mentioned OLOSHO it only tells how you have lived your life for the past 25 years. I make more than what u say u make but with my spending habit i send hone $1200 monthly to my account in Nigeria.. The focal point is if you dont curb how u spend your money in america you will run broke quickly not only in america anywhere in the world, spend wisely and avoid debt and u will see ur hard earned money in your savings Account.

Why do t you click his moniker and mayB if you have a good phone or a laptop you could at least see where he sank his money ? Assumption is meant for jobless people . Some people abroad do not have to save money as thier money get spent on various stuff in n out country .

Qc1:
oga I dey o

Long time, how's your side?

We dey ohhhh still on the matter . Nah match day today . How evry

Qc1:
The guy is actually right. I've spent almost 25 years here and I can tell you that it's extremely tough to save $400 per month on a $55,000 annual salary, I'm not saying you can't but its very hard especially when when you're paying $1200/month for rent, $100/month for electric bills, $70 on phones, $250/month on car insurance, $250 on gas/month, $50 on cables/month maybe $400 or less/month on food the rest can't even be accounted for like credit cards bills, line of credit or over-draft, olosho etc.

The thing is, you pay up to $17000 in taxes alone from the $55,000 depending which states you reside, then if you owe back-taxes, IRS might garnished up to another 10% of whatever that is left after basic taxes and deductions. By the time you get your pay cheque in your account bi-weekly, you don't even have enough to cover your rent let alone to eat. This is why you have more than 10 time the number of homeless people in USA compare to Nigeria. I don't want to scare you but it is inevitable. Take the current US President for an example, he was once almost homeless too. (google it)

Nigeria on the other hand, once you have a mindset of doing everything by yourself and ignore the government, that is just the beginning of wisdom. Naija is a shit- hole no doubt but it's also a country where you can bend the rules to your advantage. And for only that reason alone with determinations, the sky is not the limit but the beginning. I'm not here to preach, all you need is N500k.


Before you or anyone call me names, please click on my moniker and read some of my posts dated years back on this topic when I decided to relocate back to Nigeria.

Stay blessed!

My Guy howfar ?

Lamexx:
Sorry to disappoint you. I am not talking from stereotype. I don't do statistics because I know about authors biases with respect to statistical models. I hate to say this but I am actually on ground here. Like I said, the system makes you lazy. I had a roomie who is struggling to pay his fees but yet riding a Honda HRV all on credit. He simply works for 10 hrs per week and flex the remaining week. The credit card system makes you spend money you don't have and that is why I said, if you smart in America, you should not have any problem. I currently have a credit card with about $3,000 limit but I don't spend up to $500 on it because I don't want to get a bad credit score which most people tend to ignore. The moment you have a bad credit score, you start realizing how difficult the system can be. Credit card, baby mamas (child support) and jail time are the biggest drainpipe the system uses to keep people in bondage. Avoid them and you will be fine.

Better life is not meant for lazy people . This is true worldwide

Wizard999:
ok, it's enough now. !

Enough what ? Your left balls . Answer the quest . Was ur abroad Senegal or not? U fly or trek or did you go on a boat ? �

Wizard999:
Nigeria's gdp is 32 times larger than that of Senegal. No sane Nigerian should even think of residing in Senegal. A country that is 100% controlled by France. Infact our currency commands more respect and value than their franc.. My brother are you trying to insult me?

Bross U go there or not ? ?izza zimple kwestion

temitope06:
All this bickering and time wasting arguments, blind patriotism, lies and deceits, y'all fail to notice that the op is only moving back because he has issues with his US status and doesn't have a choice for now. You think if he has his green card he would ever consider relocating permanently to Nigeria?

This is quite wrong . Therr are people who relocate back to 9ja full time.I even know of a guy who relocated frm US to Lagos and set up a mechanic workshop . If you come the auto section you will be well informed .

You are contradicting yourself and you are such a hypocrisy. If nairaland is the wrong place to get an advice then what are doing here giving him an advice.

Have you not being asking for an advice yourself on visa issues?

Thank you . And when they do spew any advice it purly on hearsay not on any evidence or personal expirience .
