Most of those apps are run by Nigerians, Indians or Chinese people. And they're mostly scam designed as ponzi schemes.

Business › Re: My Advice To Salary Earners by Esthered:
JobAndVacancies:
buying food on bulk for this Tinubu regime Is no more cost effective
It is and don't mislead people.

My MIL just warned me to restock in large quantities to cover as much as February.

Indomitable was 7500 last month and 8500 today.
Spaghetti was 19k last month and now 22k last week.
Dano 12g was 15k last month and now 16k
Lactogen was 6000 last month and I bought a carton 76k at 6300 last week.
Good mama liquid wash was 2k last month now 2500.
Milo was 27k in June but I bought it 32k last month. It's 35k today 27.10.24. The list is endless.

If I had bought Lactogen in January when it was 4500, I wouldn't be crying today.

Bulk buying spreads the cost on quantity purchased and you get to bargain for a discount. It's cost saving to a reasonable extent.
Career › Re: Between An FIRS Job And A Banking Job by Esthered: 5:50pm On Oct 26, 2024
IamWilliams:
Kindly advice which one is better between a

1) Banking job (ABO grade) and

2) FIRS job (Tax Officer 2)

ABO grade salary is N490,000 but I have no idea how much FIRS pays.


Your response will be highly appreciated and used in making a career decision.
If you like a competitive place to grow, you can choose to remain in the banking industry, move to another to get the next grade.....

If you value job security and avenue to make money beyond your salary from deals, FIRS.

You didn't mention your age, how long you've been on ABO grade, the total package of the FIRS role.

Sadly there aren't any USD based investment here in Nigeria. Unless you want to go into crypto trading.
I've heard of apps that allows one to buy foreign stocks. I don't know if people yield reasonable returns on them.

Hello everyone, I am seeking referrals for banking operations jobs with a commercial bank in Nigeria.

I currently work with a top commercial bank as an assistant banking officer (ABO) I am 29 years old and have 4 years experience as a Vault custodian and Assistant Head of operations.

I'm currently looking for available roles and will be grateful for any referral.

Thank you
Why aren't you considering head office roles to gain specialized skills that are in demand?

The highest you'll attain will be DM which isn't common before one is weeded out.
You can switch to sales. Why aren't you considering retail banking?
Capping in branch operations is real. If you're a man, please be strategic. You have age on your side ☹️

volatility of naira is best navigated by Ephesians 4:28.
As you offer needed services and goods continuously, you command an income thats adjustable to the current Naira value. A person selling rice will adjust prices immediately there is an increase because he know everyone needs food two times minimum daily. Same for the farmer. Same for the transporter because either goods or people must move.
Can a person selling bleaching cream or selling sure odds for betting do same? Never.

Those speculators of yesteryear who bought dollar at maybe around N1000, they havent doubled their money up until now and the gains they even made was largely down to floating of the Naira.
Another wise man who is hustling actively, and not just storing dollar then hoping for badluck on the economy, will have trippled his investment after 18 months.
You mean that they should always increase prices to match inflation and what if it makes their goods not affordable to most of their customers who will either abandon the product or seek cheaper alternatives?
Increasing prices at every slight market shake is not sustainable in my opinion.
I'd prefer USD based investment than holding just cash assets in USD.

Afodot0022:
You are deluded. Am not at loss and will never be, am a man and if I want kids now, I will get another. She is the one that will loss cos with all her stress on those kids, when they grow older, they will look for their father and by then, the truth will be waiting for them, it will be all her loss. Am doing all these cos am a responsible man and want to do what am expected to do as a father to my kids. Most men won't even bothered about them and will move on, but am doing this cos I want to do the right thing. With what she did, it's enough reason for me to abandon those kids and move on but despite that, am still looking back and not considering her stupidity.
You're the deluded one and not me.

If you had it all planned well, you wouldn't be opening threads and looking for supporters club.

I see you want them for the sake of your ego.
You said they'll look for you in the future.....Gen Alphas? Just do the right thing.

They only love the kids for as much as they love the mother. That is why a man can abandon his biological kids, fall in love with another woman with kids and take care of them.

When women understand this, they will know to have as much as they can handle if push comes to shove.

This OP has been parading his young ex-virgin gf. He was convinced it would be easy for him to move on as a MALE divorcee. It obviously didn't work out as his young gf started to show him shege. Now he is in pains and trying to wizard-hunt his ex-wife. I love that she is applying pressure on his ego.

Look at him running mouth. Someone that entered a relationship in 2 weeks just because he couldn't keep up with his basic house chores. Yet he is raising the roof over his ex-wife needing help. I thought he claimed he is buoyant? GenZs never show am shege. Na just Round 1 be this. When they are done with him, he would beg his supposed cheating ex-wife. 😂
Aunty Poco came to a fist fight with a 🔫
I hope he does a self evaluation and work on his person.

Dear Caseless, please I have same issue with EKEDC. My meter runs into negative and now has an outstanding of 2k plus units. They're now charging us at the prevailing rate of Band A at 290.50 of which the default was prior to the Band upgrade.
I have written to plead for rate review and they asked that I visit the commercial manager who upon visiting insisted that I write. I have now written and being referred back to him.
What do you advise I do?

lecowas:
Dangote refinery has just begun and it's too soon to judge. We need more refineries to avoid monopoly, increase supply above demand and foster good market competition. I don't see any reason to scare away investors except an utter hatred for the country
Too soon...okay but he's been issuing statements almost every fortnightly.

Is the country doing everything to prevent monopoly by working on the existing refineries?

We don't want to accept that our house isn't in order. But rather bring investors to the chaos who will then run away and lay claim on our assets like we're experiencing with Ogun State and the Chinese company.

Stupidity on whose part?
You didn't answer the questions about Dangote Refinery Ltd.
As much as he's not being patriotic, are our leaders patriotic to the country to drive patriotism from the citizens?
What of the moribund refineries, with the billion USD for TAM and no results, why allow people that will not be given the needed support to operate with ease stay put.
Let our house be in order first.

You value the country now that it's FDI but you know INTERESTS will not allow it stand.
Tell us how easy it has been for Dangte Refinery Ltd.

Education › Re: Can I Use Foreign Textbooks For ICAN Preparation? by Esthered: 8:10am On Oct 22, 2024
greenermodels:
I want to start seating for the ICAN examinations from next year's May,my background is not in accounting. However, I noticed that the ICAN study packs are just a few hundred pages whereas foreign textbooks on the same courses are more voluminous with some of them been highly recommended for use in universities abroad so my question is, should I prepare with only the ICAN study packs or is it better to incorporate foreign textbooks where possible?
It depends as I used foreign text to get clearer understanding of concepts and it helped as I emerged an overall prize winner.
