Bait?

CaptainMitch:
I invested over 250,000 in fish farming and made a huge loss, I changed my mind about investing in agriculture, but I have recently gotten land and I am still thinking of what to plant.

Agriculture is not beans o

Investing my time in promoting APC

Was that a "business" investment?

Originakalokalo:
.

You don't believe in the existence of God but you describe the devil as "wise" in your post...

I have offered you what I have. There is nothing else to offer.

Peace.

You typed so much but still managed to say something. You must be very jobless and have a lot of time to waste

orukonla:
so the bible that said it should be giving to God by paying it in church is stupid

Picture of you giving your tithe to god please

Breakfast - Noodles with boiled egg

Lunch - Macaroni with stew and chicken ft leftover salad

Heineken:

You are also allergic to ies

Heineken:
sure people will buy.. I was only looking for money and applying for fg jobs so as to help myself as business isn't really moving well. Been like three weeks I made new ones though as am broke. But I think I'll have to face it squarely since job isn't forthcoming sir

Advertise your products on my site for free. Check my signature for the link. Also create an account on Jiji, Jumia and Konga, for free too, and post them there as well to get customers.

Any business is dead without advertising

I came across a thread on nL https://www.nairaland.com/4548511/business-start-400k-lagos

Being the entrepreneurship person that I was, I set out to give it a try.

Left my base in Ilorin to try it out.

Long story cut short.. I invested about 160k into it. Lost about 54k

But I'm unbothered tho, I'm still giving it two more shots next month before giving up on it.

I'm attaching a screenshot to summarise everything I spent.

Note I didn't include my transport, cus I was driving my car myself and it was some sort of tourism to me.

Lesson learnt,
Never test a business based on what people say and don't try any business with money you can't comfortably lose (I learnt the last part from cryptocurrency)

My kind of person. I keep records too

You seem like a smart person and you are definitely on the right path

LoJ:
I believe this is a simple case or "bad luck".
Still I like the way you turned it around for your own good.

Indeed all things work together for good for that serve no god

My encouragements.

You see? Instead of wasting my time lamenting that it's the devil or praying to god to solve my problems the issue is tackled instead with logic

It contains a chemical called gossypol which interferes with sperm production. If you’re trying to make a baby, you should avoid okro stew.

My father in law's favorite soup was okro soup and he had 23 children

swiz123:
Maybe they didn't pray before setting out for their journey

Just like that church building collapsed on church members while they were praying abi?

AHCB:
I still don't get what misinformed got to do with everything.

according to your theory, it means everyone of the scenario you mentioned, the people involve were all misinformed.

No na. How can the person that goes to school or learns a trade be as misinformed as the person that is taught to cheat people and sell her body?

What happened to me this year sef just get as e be.

So I was finally making N25k daily from my website and saved more than N1m and decided to hire a professional SEO company to handle my seo so that I can rank for more keywords and make more money. My target is to make 100k+ daily which is actually what my competition make.

The SEO company charged N150k per month and on the first month we found out that Google had penalized my site because of a Yoast plugin issue. With the Yoast plugin new update they was an option which was usually turned off by default but was on with the new update and thus pages were created automatically using images and no content. Coincidentally Google's new algo or whatever just came out and in it included a rule against pages with only images. And thus I was bleeped.

You can read more about the Yoast issue here https://charlesfloate.co.uk/yoast-mess-up. Many people were affected by this issue. If you go through the comments you will see one guy complaining about how he went from $1,000 per month to $100 because of his drop in traffic.

Also the seo company discovered that for some reason my backlinks created to my website were being removed so now I had to pay for on-site seo and also backlinks. To cut the long story short I spent all my savings trying to resolve this issue and I am still working on building more backlinks.

Daily income has gone down to N5k-N10k daily and yes I am royally bleeped because I have to fuel my gen and run it for 24 hours as we barely have power here. Nepa did not even blink the light throughout the weekend and as I write this the generator is on and making noise. Data, feeding, diapers, baby food etc sef dey there but we are managing.

I don't even know what to call this one. Whether bad investment or simply bad luck but thought to share.

By the way, based on the kind of person I am due to the low traffic I was getting and free time I got I used that spare time to build 3 new websites and now I am working on building them to profitability. Man never back down

AHCB:
hope you know in some countries, prostitution is legal? There's nothing fraudulent about it.

Allow me to elaborate my theory.

Money is based on information. You are either told by your parents that you have to go to school, get good grades, get a job and MAKE MONEY

OR

In the case of Ibo people you are taught a trade, learn the business under a "master" and after 7 years or so given money to start your own business so you can also start MAKING MONEY

OR

You are a guy on the street, family is poor and you meet friends and they tell you "you fit scam maga o. Just create a profile picture on fb and start sending people messages(or whatever format), lie a little bit and beg for money using various forms and MAKE MONEY

OR

(I will share a personal story shared with me by one olosho I used used to knack that year) Her parents sent her to Lagos to stay with her elder sister who was married. The elder sister was supposed to send her to school. While she was living there her sister's husband started trying to touch her. She told her sister who didn't believe her but instead scolded her for trying to ruin her marriage and as a result she had to live the house to work in a restaurant, where she would sleep at night, till one of the customers(an Ikeja babe) introduced her to a hotel where she was lodged and slept with one dude for the first time and made her first 10k after 5 minutes ie if the guy lasted that long. Today she is an olosho in all standards.

So I hope you get my point about con artists(yahoo yahoo) and prostitutes being the same thing. They are both misinformed.

HardMirror:
i understand. Advice your fellow ladies to go and work the way you are working too. Girls are just too lazy and clueless in this country. Honestly guys are trying even if it is yahoo, they still try to earn

In my opinion prostituting = yahoo yahoo

They are simply misinformed

Ishilove:
I have a rough idea of how the streets are. Gerrarahere

Woman I used to sleep on a bench and look at the stars. Getthefuckouttahere

Ishilove:
Over nothing?? One bus for 50 people is not 'nothing'. Only the strong survive on the streets

Mtchewww. Look at who is talking about "the streets" like you have ever been in it

These are the reasons why I don't miss Lagos. Too much open eye over nothing

frank317:
Perfectly written... Been a while

Been on my grind o jare. Just another boring Sunday

Ihedinobi3:
You ignored the answer in that very post just to ask me the question again?! Do you have nothing else to do with your time?

The only conclusion is that your god is useless since you suffer even more than people who don't believe in it.

Lol. I only replied your comment and you think you are that important. Typical delusional behavior

highqueen:
God and not god.

Doesn't make it any less imaginary

Paul was an apostle who preached and wrote letters to many churches in Antioch.
Whenever he speaks of himself and writes with sentiments, he has always indicated.

So basically you are saying the bible is not totally god's word, right?

highqueen:
Not only bible, Muslim own is even worst to their women.
At least, in Christianity today, not in the olden testament, Jesus came to liberate us from all manner of slavery, he never demeaned women rather saved them.

Women were ahead in all his doings on earth, he never condemned women.
He came and abolished the laws of the old testament and gave us freedom.

Any misogynist verse you read in the new testament were written by paul.
And he always indicates that it's not of God but of him.
Meaning, the instructions weren't from God rather of him.

Then why is it in the bible? Isn't the bible the word of god?

Ihedinobi3:
Then I told you explicitly that this life is a war for Christians, a test and a labor so we have a harder time of it than unbelievers do.

Then what use is your god if you have to suffer more than unbelievers?

CAPSLOCKED:
FROM THE STORY HE FIRST SENT 4,800 TO THE GUY, THEN MISTAKENLY SENT THE 1M TO THE GUY AGAIN INSTEAD OF ANOTHER PERSON, BECAUSE THE GUY'S ON HIS "BENEFICIARY".

Rather careless of him

sholatem:
So wizkid je gbese! ,

Stew!

So this guy does not have any clear picture or ordinary FB account abi?

ogtavia:
How did he get to the N1M naira credit limit??

How can someone who wants to transfer N4,300 end up typing N1,000,000?

frank317:
You know, I pondered on this before opening the thread... Why so much noise about God when its absolutely useless for our survival or better life.

Its not enough that God cannot be seen, heard or even felt... He is also useless in our daily life... Why so much noise about something so meaningless?

It would seem that humans crave subjugation, to quote Loki, and we always look for something to serve and worship be it politicians, pastors, imams, celebrities or a god. This craving blocks our mind from reasoning and that is why you see many people proudly claiming they are sheep.

They feel they are not worth great things and even when they do achieve great things they would rather attribute it to a "higher power" and the mystery behind a hide and seek god aids this self condemnation.

Hypocrisy is also a factor as religion enables theists do bad things in the name of their god.

It is a complex psychological issue

humandroid:
That's cool too, as long as I know I am not. Your opinion need not bother me. At least I am a wealthy man with enough resources to keep my dick sucked all through my life.

You should come work for me.

How much do you pay monthly?

For as long as I can remember I have never really believed in any god. I always felt embarrassed when I was in church because it always seemed like I was doing something stupid.

Since I dumped God in the trash where it belongs I can boldly say my life has gotten better. I take responsibility of my affairs and I don't live in fear of an almighty God whose sole purpose is to burn people in hell just because it likes the smell of suya.

I am also happily married with a beautiful son and he just turned one yesterday and from what I project life is only going to get better.

All that time wasted praying to a god is better spent playing with my son, building my businesses and meditating on building my empire and creating the best life for my family.

There is only one place God belongs and that is in the
