ololadeking:
buhari, I lost everything

yes buhari has refused to pay us for the jobs we did under goodluck's government.

This is in response to this wonderful thread https://www.nairaland.com/4852491/how-old-when-made-first

After going through the thread i realized that many had made money but lost all or a good chunk.

This is my own story.

Abattoir Investment

As a student in Futa, i usually patronized a butcher called Nurai at the abattoir behind Chicken Republic at FUTA Junction. The guy was very nice to us and always gave us extra meat to what we bought. When i had my first major breakthrough, this guy was the first person that came to my mind.

I gave Mr. Nurai 500,000 naira as investment into the business. The man lost all the money within a few months. I still like him and i know he did not do it intentionally but it was a big blow to my finances when i needed a backup source of income.

business agreement with a nairalander i wont mention his name, but i had an agreement with a nairalander, but i suspect he diverted the money into mmm. Long story short he still owes me 400k after refunding about 600k to me.

Ministry of works contract
Never take a contract during elections. Goodluck Jonathan awarded lots of contracts a few months to the 2015 elections. I got several road furnishing contracts November 2014. Unfortunately we had to borrow money to do the Job. Lost about N7million there. Government still owing us 54million (i did it in partnership with another company in Abuja) it was a massive blow and my worst mistake in life not just business.

What is your own story? Be honest and detailed so we can learn from each other.

Eddee:
22 After NYSC. Invested my savings + allowance on cheap whiskey from Aba and Onitsha and doubled my initial capital immediately.

wicked soul. Selling fake products to unsuspecting people. Well done!

IrokoOluwere:
Honestly!
99% of the ladies that commentary on that thread are assholes .
I still remember about 5 of them and their monikers till today . I don mark their face .
Stupid leeches

baba, you don vex like me. Lolz

Heineken:
am a photographer and am very good at that.. Also I learnt Shoe making then immediately after nysc so I can really build shoes myself. Those are the things I know I can do very well.... At least making of shoes and selling to the people.

i can link you up with emmon clothing, you can build on your knowledge of shoe making. Mind you this guy makes shoes costing a million each so, this is not your average fashion designer. But i need to be sure you wont be a liabilit?y. No body wants to carry dead weights along. As i said before. Emotions dont get to me. Open a thread here and display your works. Mention me when you do and we take it up from there

this reminds me Alakija. When asked how she made her wealth, she said "it's god." At least in Alakija's case, we know what she does. Many on the thread are just outrightly lying.

many nairalanders are not just poor, they are mentally poor too. See how they started begging him for money. Stupid people

Ugosample:
you don't mean it

you missed the thread? You need to see how the stvpid girls were talking on the thread as if being a gf is a career we guys must pay for

Heineken:
I appreciate you bro for your time and response. It shall be well with you. I have a camera back then in school which I used to snap and made some money in my university days. I used same to sponsor myself. Had to sell it as things became worst then.

bro you dont get it. I am not the emotional kind of person. I deal with facts and reality.

Ask yourself this question, 'is there anything you can do so well that anytime there is a need for someone to do that thing people will first think about you.

Help me, help me, is not enough. There are millions of people needing help. Dont be part of them. Be one of those people will be ready to pay to help them get things done

Martinez19:
E be like those girls dey vex you so tey your blood come dey hot.

since the day i read their comments on that thread where a guy gave his gf 500k for business and she used it for her family issues. I don hate nairaland ladies

pocohantas:
I get your point though, it is the conditioning. If you wanna be a rich man, work hard. If you wanna be a rich woman, marry a rich man.

There is one thing I have come to observe though, it is the fact that lots of guys love the status quo. They might complain when they wanna yab ladies, but they love the bragging right.

woo, good night

Heineken:
I appreciate man. Am a graduate of Mass Communication. Am a good computer literate and knows how well to use a camera. I have a very good photography skills. I edit too.. Very well. Photo editing and all

have you used it to earn or freelance in the past? See bro, there are millions of youths out there who have good skills, no body want so work with a person that would be a liability, so you need to sell yourself

Heineken:
thanks bro. I haven't really earned anything in the past. I served 2014 and immediately I got one teaching job then paying 16k In 2015. But the owner private school woman later said we without education qualifications should leave. Since then nothing bro. It's really sad. I've been applying for jobs but I don't understand how God is doing he's things. Am so perplexed. Am in Abuja bro...

so you dont have any skills? What can you do?

hahn:
In my opinion prostituting = yahoo yahoo

They are simply misinformed

stvpid people will always be stvpid. See them begging for money without having any plans on how to keep the money flowing. I tire for nigerians

dilini:
I wish I have an android phone I would have screenshot my acct balance and send it to you. Sold my phone when I lost all my savings. God bless you for your kind heart and gestures. Your financial support will be highly appreciated

pocohantas:
The girls dey show their dependency trait na. But na the guys own tire me, because them no dey gree me rest...

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

Heineken:
boss I hail sir. Please I need a job. Served 2014 till now no joy whatsoever. Anything bro. Ready to travel

you seem to stay up north. Do you really think you need a job?
Have you ever earned any money in the past? Tell me about it. How did you do it. Let us start from there

MrKong:
I'm going to make somebody a millionaire this night. If you have less than #10 in you account. Send me your account number accompanied with the screenshot of your balance

if you are serious, dont hand over money to a fool. Instead of asking for their account balance why not give it to those who are ready to work and build the money. It is your money but think about it.

AHCB:
the hungry wey dey worry them eh, no be here oh.

I know many will search this thread later and place search light on the guys who have millions in there account.

exactly. Instead of them to read this thread and learn, they will open it looking for guys to hookup with.

DDGN:
2015. N1.5M to be exact, and since then there have been no turning back. Between 2015 and now I have made over N180 million. Ten years ago if anyone had said I'll ever see a million I would have laughed that person off. 15 years ago I was walking round Festac Town, sometimes barefooted selling vegetables (shokor) and okra. When the season comes I sell corn..With a trey over my head walking round Festac shouting "BUY SHOKOR". It's the most humiliating thing that can ever befall any on in secondary school as I get to see most of my classmates..girls included. I once saw a classmate and nearly ran for cover, unfortunately the trey fell on the road, and right there I had to stop and picking back the items one by one lol.

The day Nigeria played South Africa in the semi final at the Ghana Nigeria 2002 Nations Cup I wasn't even allowed to see the game. I had to go Kiri. Then, as timaya said " I dey on my own Jehovah just bless me o". God took me from rags, the bottom of the food chain in the family, the most despised and hated, God took me from that to become the richest person in the history of my family. Anyone who doubts the existence of God and his propensity to fight for and bless the underdog, the oppressed, is doing himself a major disservice. I have experienced first hand how God works. It's incredible.

ogbeni shut the fvck up. I have not made 20million as profit ever but at the same time you are talking trash. Tell us how exactly you made your money and stop shouting god here. Did god throw the money to you from heaven? And some daft people are liking the useless post. You have told us how bad things were, it is not a miracle, you must have worked hard and had some luck on your side legitimately or illegitimately . Just tell us how it happened

AHCB:
pocohantas will never state that.

i am just observing a lot of them quietly. Useless people

python2gbera:
Interestingly, babes can now activate the reply button on their PM. NL dudes ain't broke afterall. Babes could sigh a relief.

Python2

dont mind the daft girls. You cant blame them. Most of them have never earned 50k legitimately before so they assume it is the same with everyone they meet. Any girls yapping about broke guys here only exposes her level. It is a sign she is a rock crawler surrounded by broke guys

pocohantas:
You no go just see those Romance section guys on this thread. Them no get work or hustle?

Anyway, I will say 23+...
Got the famous 6digit paying job, had some allowances and intangible benefits, living in a family house, parents who didn't ask me for anything except if I decided to spend. I am not a flexing or flamboyant person, so I didn't have a reason not to save.

I dream about the proposed pay/benefits of my new job and smile to myself. I am my father's daughter.

hehehe. Not just the guys, the useless girls there too.

phorget:
.

Still struggling to eat three square meal in a day,someone is here asking how old I was when I first made a million. Still praying to God to pick my call anyway.

i made my first million (N3m) when i became an atheist you are here talking about god picking your calls. Learn the principles of success and put them to work. Prayers does nothing

LoJ:
Very nice thread. @hardmirror

i got my first major contract from the collehae of science and technology portharcourt. Thanks to engr christian chukwemeka. I was just 22years old. Contract was just N1.2m so not much considering i would spend to execute the job.

Never been a business person always chasing contract.

My first million was actually N3million (i mean total profit i made) which was for a contract i did for sure-p then. I was 25years old

Saff:
The mods knew what they were doing when they put this on the front page. But I will just keep quiet

better remain quiet least we add cucumber to your name

hahn:
After everything in the post this is all you could understand

he is an idiot

itsmeurLady:
Is it that as a man, you can't construct a sentence without being insultive That's a big turnoff, don't gaan beat your wife at home oo because you sound violent and bitter

turnoff? You think i give a dim what you think of me? I am only stating the obvious here. Anyone who takes this lady serious must be daft. So cos her child is ill, we should all line up behind her. I hope the husband sues her

Very good tune. Keep it up. Better than most songs from nigerians of recent

itsmeurLady:
Aww... Just take a look at the baby the lord is your strength Madam...Thank God u were smart enough to know all these things on time.

Mr/Miss Perfect bashing her, I hope u have never made a wrong choice in your life before? I hope when you do, you don't get criticized like this because only then will you know that when it comes to other people's experiences, u shld not talk anyhow because what you do to people is what they will do to you in return. That's why, people are dying out of depression because of sharp words from unknown strangers all in the name of savagery. NLand might be a faceless forum but know that every idle/useless word you post here, you will give account. The words you posted, did it lead people to sin? Did it hurt others? Did it make people contemplate suicide?

THINK BEFORE YOU TYPE!!!!!

will you shut your stinking mouth there!!! So because she posted a picture of the baby in hospital, that is evidence that the man is a ritualist? This girls are just dumb. So a child cannot fall ill anymore? So all the children in hospital or even dead were used for ritual according to your peanut brain.
She is obviously bitter because the man is about to marry another lady and you are here talking trash

Also try http://olujimimetilelu.com/author/admin/ he was recommended to me by hahn and he proved trustworthy helped me exchange some paypal funds. All the best. As much as i recommend this two people, please carry on at your own risk as they are humans and dont hold me liable for them incase anything goes wrong.

https://www.nairaland.com/4659322/cheap-exchange-rate-paypal-usd talk to the guy that created that thread. I have tried a lot of nairaland paypal 'operators' most of them are not serious or just too immature. He should be able to point you right.
