₦airaland Forum

UDUJ:
I hope you are not one of the everything is vanity crew? I work hard for my money and if I am in a position to take good care of myself with things like the PS5, Galaxy watch et al I don't think it's anyone's business because I earned it after working for so many years and attaining a higher position in the office. Like you said, to each their own. Just because you don't see the value in it doesn't make it a wasteful purchase. Have a nice day

In 2017, on this same Nairaland, I assisted someone by adding to his GRE payment back then. He has done the exam about 2 times but didn’t have enough to write the exam the 3rd time. I supported him with a token and fortunately, he got his desired score. It was that same GRE that he used in gaining admission to a school in the USA with full funding and now he is in the USA doing his doctorate degree.

I agree that there are so many people here on Nairaland who are claiming that they are in financial need whereas they are just scammers. At the same time, there are still some other category of people who are genuine and real. Some of us that usually support these kind of people are living in a society where there are so many support organizations to help the low-income earners and those in financial need. So, we feel it will be better to touch the lives of those who have no one to support them (since there are only a few support organizations in Nigeria). Of course, the “most convenient” way for most of us to reach out to them is via this forum because this forum has also been a blessing to us in so many different ways. At least, I can speak for myself. I will not be in the location where I am today if not for the information I got via this forum back then. So, the best way to give back is to support the members here who are in financial need.

In fact, I am actually surprised about Squillaci's case because I usually do my verification before assisting anyone. I think the fact that the moderators hid some of his posts where he once posted his account details didn't help matters too. But, will this stop me from assisting others, of course not. There is a Yoruba saying that says "bi a ba diju ki eni buruku koja, titi ti eni rere ma fi koja, a ko ni mo (if we close our eyes so that the bad people can pass, we will not know when the good people will pass too)". I believe the essence of this thread is to just learn to be more careful next time and do one's homework well.

Don't let UDUJ catch you

Hathor5 I just dey look you with one eye now

But seriously the watch is a life saver, most apps on your phone can also be downloaded on the watch as well. When going for runs you don't need to take your expensive phone for fear of theft.

At the boldfaced , Nah I don't get distracted. Maybe these spoilt teenagers get distracted or use theirs for show off but I use mine for fitness and to track my health like heart rate, sleep tracking etc etc

I bow o. I've been living with dogs (note the plural) for almost 20 years and some people are trying to teach me about their temperament? I laugh in Buhari

Thank you for the unsolicited advice but how is this related to his murder?

Don't get me wrong, I don't want Biden to stoop down to Trump's level. That's waaaaaay too low. I just felt Biden let Trump distract him. Especially, since Trump obviously couldn't stick to the rules. I wish he had attacked Trump more by asking him more questions. It's usually the best way to expose a fool for who he is.

Whenever Biden was talking and Trump interrupted, Biden seemed to completely lost his focus. Moreover, you don't have to stoop low to be fierce. Harris, Sanders, Obama etc are all fierce and probably (in my opinion) would have done a better job.


Anyway, maybe I feel that way because I am not a 'calm' person myself, especially not during debates. Biden however seems to be a gentle soul. When it comes to competence though, we all know Trump's got nothing on Biden

budaatum:
He did tell the President to shut the fuq up. The words he used were something like "your office agreed to the terms of the debate".

My position is, when trump continued to not shut the fuq up, Wallace should have become a little more direct and found an intelligent way to more directly tell the president to shut the fuq up.

duchaB:
An extraterrestrial from planet Venus... Lol!

Okay. I always assumed you aren't Nigerian..
Or a Nigerian with little or no traditional upbringing, lost forever in diaspora..

budaatum:
Indeed Chris Wallace really did mess up. He was too deferential to the President so could not tell trump to stick to what was agreed to and shut the fuq up when it wasn't his turn.

Hopefully, future moderators would learn from Wallace's incompetence and do better.

fieryy:
Lool, that line was indeed good. Maybe I'm being too harsh on Biden. I just wish he was more fierce

Philipponzaghi:
Trump is just doing rubbish interrupting and going off key.

This is a shame to America because even those they call developing countries can present better debate than what they did tonight.

The moderator was also somehow slow, he should have stood his ground and kept Trump shut by reading the rules to him. He was late to do that, doing it after almost 1hr into the debate.

Next time they should devise a means to shut off the mic with a button so so to moderate it better.

Trump is a crazy man tbh and people supporting him need their brain checked.

He can’t even condemn white supermacist, the fool told them to standby when asked to condemn them openly.

Yet some black idiot keep supporting him. Nawa o!

fieryy:
Biden was ao easily distracted, so easily thrown off by Trump, who just wouldn't shut the f up. It is very important to stay focus, speak faster, talk louder when you have to, and continuously throw your punches when debating someone like Trump. There's no time to dwell on sth. for too long or even take a break.

I mean come on, was it not so predictable that Trump wouldn't be fair in this debate? If someone acts like a child, then by all means treat him like one.

Breakfast is something I don't joke with.Even when I don't have that time to prepare anything before living the house, I always throw in some fruits in my bag and eat on my way out, reason i stock my house with enough fruits.


Breakfast this morning before going out for fishing.

I don’t think it should stop there. This is no more funny. How would someone pour hot water on a child? It is bad enough that they make these kids do things that even adults can’t do. You see these kids carrying water containers that’s heavier than them. You see these kids raising kids...

The fact that anyone would have a CHILD as a help, rather than an adult, should tell you the mindset. Child labour should be taken very serious. Ahnahn! That child is scarred for life. Doesn’t even look like a girl anymore.
