stagger: When you have money in Nigeria or indeed in Africa, 99% of these "issues" are taken care of.
One of my former pastors used to say that there are demons that money can bind. I never knew the meaning until I started stepping into the realm of financial overflow.
Where my house in Abuja is, light has not blinked since Sunday last week. Most people cannot afford to pay rent there. I also have a house in an African country where I spend half the year and I pay the rent there in US dollars. Even the police in that area know that I am not the typical native they see everywhere. When they see me jogging or taking a walk past their checkpoint, they greet me with respect.
These are things that money can do and knowing my circumstances and how they have changed in 20 years, I can compare both sides and tell you categorically that with money, life in Naija can be paradise.
Money has an odour you cannot brush off. You do not even need to be as rich as Dangote to enjoy these things. Just make sure you have at least three to four income streams that bring you 6 figures a month and you are good to go. See rich man Oga help me buy laptop make i learn video editing skills and earn a living on Upwork na? Empower a youth My account balance na 63 naira. |

MrBrownJay1: yes it will hopefully get back to normal very soon, when people go back towork...unless people see the benefit of working online.
right now its like a waste of time and energy to even try I understand you bro. Right now things aren't even going well for me to venture into it. So I'll just chill out and relax for every country to resume school again and international flight. That's when I'll come to it |

Mrshape: Some people use to have the feelings that there parents are rich but maybe a nurse exchanged them to poor parents Have you had that thought or something similar ? Yeap I once had that feeling. It was when i was in teenage btw 15-17 years old. I used to also dream that one lonely and mid-aged American couple would come and adopt me so i can live American dream  Too much Hollywood influence  |

MrBrownJay1: bro most gigs on Upwork are now saturated thanks to covid-19... and anyone who tries to make people believe that just registering on Upwork will make you earn 300K monthly, is playing with people's desperation. you will even be lucky to make 20$ (after spending countless of $$$ to buy connects to apply for projects).
an aspiring writer should definitely try their luck, but remember, you have to be really creative about your craft to get attention of people on there.
it has nothing to do with the skill you got, but with the difficult covid-19 times, everything is saturated.
In that case, when global economy returns to normal, international flights resume and economy of countries resume once again, then the covid-19 induced competition on Upwork will reduce right  Just projecting hopefully by December |

MrBrownJay1: do you really think that NLers are stoopid enough to pay for something that is free on the internet?! really?! come on bro!
A) anyone who wants to open an Upwork account should ask google, they can easily find the solution there, instead of paying 5k for it. B) unless you have a skill to offer, registering on Upwork is useless... and believe me, in these difficult times, there are countless of people bidding for work, so you better be good at what you do if you want to get work. nobody will pay you if your job is rubbish. C) just by having your account approved on Upwork, certainly wont automatically guarantee you 300K monthly. you will have to bid for jobs (to bid for jobs you have to pay, it aint free), and if these bids are unsuccessful then thats money down the drain.
so again, unless you have a PROPER skill to offer, dont waste your time on Upwork. This is a very educative comment. I realised that writing gig has become over over over saturated. Geez I can't even stress the saturation level. For a mere 10$ writing project that is posted, there are over 12 bids in 6minutes. I wonder if it is so with other skills? I mean that tight competition. What other skill on Upwork do you think is not saturated, but well paying and worth learning? Also, should an aspiring writer still be enthusiastic to join upwork |

A lot of times, I enjoy the motions that emanate from the green chamber than those from red chamber.
Wonderful development. Buhari has penchant for not respecting the other arms of government, just as it should be in proper Democracy.
I pray Allah gives him sense, because he lacks in that regard. |

freedomchild: I wanted to have only one girl when I gained admission into school in 2011, I loved the babe but she friendzoned me. I left girl matter till final year because I was in pharmacy school. I banged 4 girls in my final year alone. I was banging one Aunty like that till my graduation. I banged one girl again during my 5 month stay in Lagos. I'm soon to be an excorper with body count of just 6 and I'm 28. I'd have passes such number but because I was selective. I chose classy and clean girls. Right now I'm focusing on my new found business. I'm currently dating my female colleague and might marry her A pharmacy business? Pharmacists marrying pharmacists are very cool combination. I usually don't think of female doctors, wouldn't want someone to think the home is an hospital where she can lorde over me lol. And i can't accept any career that is not profitable. So its best we settle for our ilk, no down-looking and no dependence.  |
