Love800:
Why quitting your government job. Am curious.
Don't you want to receive pension!

My brother,I can create the said pension for myself.

My reason is that,i cant be rich while working for govt except through cutting corners.

That is my position.

ufotunang:
.but government workers are well paid..with the increase in the minimum wage

Is that what u were told?

Then they lied to u.

chiagozien:
You see Yorubas rejoicing over Mazi Nnamdi Kanu imprisonment, forgotten their hero awolowo was sent to Calabar prison by Northerners and was later released by Ojukwu.



He later choosseed Northerners over those that released him.


Na still small northern soldiers made him drank rat poison called Otapiapia.

The man fell in his bathroom and hit his coconut head in the sink...

Na so e take die.
No-one even noticed that he had died in his bathroom.

He died a shameful death for practising tribalism and suggesting the then govt to suffocate the Eastern region.

After seeing him speak,I realised how low the APC has brought this nation.

U needed to see the America defence secretary speaks,same with the UK defence secretary and when u compare them with ours u will know why Buhari and Tinubu messed this country.

See Edo,see Mattawale abi na metallic.

A man who couldn't pass WAEC in the north where people copy with Test books.

Opari .

Wickedtruths:
But when Police killed kidnappers in Lagos, you were crying that they are killing your kinsmen.

U were the one crying man...and still crying.

Light1000:
Okay....but is it the pay that's your problem or the effort the work demands or something different?

I sat down and asked myself series of questions and many other questions I may not put up here.
Those question has to do with the following:


*Pay...
*Retirement.
*My life after retirement.
*I don't want to steal nor falsify things to make money in the office.
*The future of my children,knowing they can't inherit my job from me.

Yesterday,I went out to formalised my company name and started the process of getting my licence before the end of this month. I have got a place to be used as my office.

I have equally told my wife to resign from her banking work so that,we can put heads together and drive our dreams ahead. She agreed!

My brother,my side incomes has grown tremendously and now is the time to quit and focus on my future and dreams of making it very big.

I am working on a lot now,and I know I will do well more than I am doing now.

A lot is on my mind now.

I hope u will understand me. Entrepreneurship is the way forward...and without it,many govt workers would cry before retirement.

Most only earn income to feed and not to save and invest these days.

That is why I am scared of being kidnapped.

This December I had earlier planned to enjoy in my village can't be possible again.

U see this kind of insecurity?

Light1000:
If you don't mind...Under which parastatal do you work?

I can't disclose that here.

Because I am a senior officer...

U will see how this things would affect Tinubu re-election come 2027.

The Jonathan mess is coming to shame Tinubu completely.

Now,see how insecurity in Kogi state has pressured me both from my wife,my parents not to travel to my state this December.

The kidnapping along that route is like a daily occurrence. It is shameful and horrifying to say the least.

This govt has no plans if not for the pressure from above.

My mistake is,not resigning from my govt work this year...


I don't find any fulfilment in it any more.

Nawah engrish...

This year has been wonderfully good,bad and even ugly so to say.

But in all we thank God almighty for everything.

Despite the bad policies of this present govt,I came out better and stronger financially...I made more money this year by virtue of my consistency.

All made possible by God.

Mitsurugi:
As per e shock me. Make person pay you to clean your own house? And yet na their online egbon go quick vex when you say Lagos is dirty. yarimo I greet o. Abeg call ya people to order.

Thing tire devil self.

fineboynl:
The reason why most people who touch money before but go broke is not accepting reality.

As humans it’s difficult for majority of us to accept reality. They usually saw the signs of decline in finance before hand but because they have accepted a certain lifestyle and impression. It’s difficult to accept reality and switch. Instead they keep ignoring the danger until it becomes too late.

Is all about indiscipline.

Just like some people get angry when they hear good stories from other people.

When they are supposed to ask how the person is doing it,they will become abusive ,hate-filled and ungrateful.

There are so many guys here who has connections,money and opportunity in here but some people bad home training would not allow any grace around them.

Good luck to ur brother.

That is why I can't make any Muslim my friend. I avoid them and anytime it is friday here in the north I don't usually stay outside more than 12noon.

I don't hate them but I can't under-estimate them either.

They are extremely unpredictable.

I like ur determination keep it up.

It is not easy honestly,the pressure from men like us can be crazy.

U see,don't lower ur guard and u will thank yourself for being chaste.

Congrats my dear sister.

That woman really tried...22k,is the second highest quality of gold in the world. 91.9 percent gold is what that woman is holding there.

Typical house wives in the north who know the value of holding gold and using it when they are in serious financial needs.

bejick:
You when dey earn 200k can feed me when you never feed yourself.
I no wan banter with you cos I don't earn in Naira, your one month earning I might make in some hours.
Where you power stop na there some people own start.

Poor man wey dey advice rich man.

I think u should advice yourself and stop being petty.
When it comes to money,una go come out like ants given unsolicited advice here and there...man,it is time to advice yourself out of poverty.

Yes,I can feed u comfortably,take that home. Tell ur friends I said so.

enemyofprogress:
I hen 75k a month, my wife hens 95k and we're happily married with five children

Don't worry u would soon harm yourself with the two hens

frankoben:
I guess they practice their own Islam with delusion, I have countless Muslim friends and they would never conceive such horrific thoughts.

Muslims friends indeed.

When it starts,u will know how far.

Just be careful sha.

auduadeniyi:
Now you are talking but your write-up as if nothing concerned you with your parents. Perception different

She from South Africa and we don't share similarity in how they treat their elderly.
Can't u see how cruel they are to their fellow black Africans?

Babaibe:
See this one, your remark made smile. If anyone is a potential candidate of high bp , Oga na you ooo. Me I dey enjoy my life. I am not coming to nairaland to lament ooo. I don't need magic to turn 2.4m gross to 60m per annum and spend 18m on family with batallion nannies and 100 cars oo. Na your problem wey no dey finish oo. All I know is that empty barrel makes the loudest noise, and you don't need to mount a stool for the world to know you are tall.

Yoruba man with so much envy and hate.

Babaibe:
Oga stop forming.I am not in your class.Do you think I can sit in a office for 200k. They hype yourself. You are making 60m , spending 80m , story for the God. Who asked you question in the first place. You turned yourself to D.A Fagunwa dey tell us story. Your 200k is 2.4m per annum gross, so where is the 60 million coming from. Empty barrel make the loudest noise, I am not here to drag with you. All I know is that if your naration is real, you are living beyond your means. I am not spending 18m annually and my family are living happily including a vacation abroad annually.

This one pain u.

Well,I am always a proud man...at least I am not poor...if it pains u further,u can do the needful.

Sorry for ur High blood pressure ok.

Thomas1186:
PLS I NEED URGENT ADVISE AND SOLUTION!

Each time our marriage breaks, my business gets stuck and all manners of evils happen to me at the same time.

We did a couple of business together before she suddenly became attractive to me one day when I saw her. I wooed her and we dated for just 2 months and got married the third month.

Few weeks into the marriage I discovered she had a traveling bag full of celestial materials like oils, crosses, perfumes, candles, to mention but a few. When I confronted her, her brother called and told me not to be angry that they are celestial members, whereas she told me she is a Roman Catholic. This was the beginning of discoveries.

Later on, I realised she lied to me about her parents, health condition, age and almost everything else.

She is a lawyer. She hates everyone around her, doesn't forgive and she has no friend.

When I'm sleeping, she search my phone, pockets and bags.

One night, she was watching a movie on her phone and she slept off, so as I picked it, I saw her chat with her male lawyer friend. I realised that everything we discuss at home, she chats it with the guy and also told the guy to prepare a prenuptial agreement for her, that would State that at the end of our marriage, everything we bought together would be hers. So, the lawyer asked her how she was going to get me to sign the agreement, and she said she was going to get me to sign it without knowing it. And a lot more.

She began to accuse me of women, and infidelity.

Fast forward, there were so many problems that I had to send her away and immediately after that, everything was upside down for me: my business was stuck, I was duped of a huge amount of money. I had an accident and I couldn't walk. Everything was in
jeopardy.

We finally came back together and her character and attitude, disrespect for me, my family and friends etc, became times three. It got to a point that I was almost running mad. It became totally unbearable and I had to finally send her away. But before then, I calculated everything she has ever contributed financially to my life and I refunded her. Then I told her it can't work that I cannot continue. that she should leave. And that happened about 4 months ago. From the moment I gave her that money, everything becomes stuck. I either have a client who would agree to do business but after then, he or she would never call again or take my calls. But if he or she takes my call and is ready to pay, minutes before they make payment someone else would make the payment. I am into real estate. This has been the case for the past 4 months. The truth is that she doesn't eat catfish and sometimes make statements like can you come home I want to pray for you so that your business will work come and let me pray for you.

Another problem is that her younger brother is like a god that sits for her. She reports everything that happened in our marriage to him. He was the commander and decision maker of everything. The one who sent her perfumes and oils once a little thing happens.

I have prayed and prayed but still my business no longer works at all. It's just disappointment now.

I have requested for my Downy and it's been refunded.

Pls help.

That is why ìt is always and often good to know who u want to marry before u say I do.

I don't believe that there is no juju. That lady has caged u and u can't do anything except u too go the same length and above the level she is operating on.

Tit for tat should be activated quickly...do everything to save yourself from her black magic.

Every reasonable man or woman avoids white garment people because of these kinds of rituals. Can't u see that many of them don't get married especially their ladies.

Do quick to free yourself this self inflicted wahala.

I packed out of my former house because of this same white garment landlady which I got to found out few years in my rental tenor,she sprayed every nonsense in and around the house and to worsen the matter,on our cars...that was why I called it off and I immediately packed out to avoid being met with bad luck and after everything,I blocked her on both WhatsApp and lines.

maasoap:
You need to sit down and re-examine your finances and adjust because it looks like you are living above your means. What is your wife doing because you only mentioned your own income? It would be difficult for you to grow financially (saving/investing) this way unless there are some missing information about your income

U didn't read well OK. I didn't seek for ur advice.

Cromagnon:
you know poor men have more kids than you pretending to be rich

I am not rich but I earn high and reasonable amount of money every month.

If that hurts so be it.

Poor men don't advice rich and middle class rather advise ur yourself.

They have started the mission already.

Hhh4444:
lol,he should use plantain leaves.. it's free of charge. He doesn't need to pay for it

The thing is shocking honestly.
