Business To Business / Re: Used Clothes In Bales Price Suppliers: Second Hand Clothes Wholesale by IsaacBuchi(m): 11:43am On May 31, 2018
So finally, the long awaited piece of content is here. I was awaiting this piece of content too. Well I don’t think it’s going to be much of a piece.

I will try to make it very concise and extremely straight to the point; and most importantly, very well detailed as much as I can go.

As I mentioned in the last post, I took some time to get real life data so we could be making some few realistic calculations today.

Here are some of the major points we will be discussing right here in this post:

How many pieces of clothes are in a bale
• How much can you make from the “fairly used clothes in bales” business
• Wholesale market in lagos
• Business ideas in nigeria with low capital
• How much is a 100kg bale of first grade okrika
• Where can I buy top quality bales

• Where to find Used Clothes In Bales Price Suppliers
• How to start the Okrika Business


Okay, so before we proceed, I’d like to mention that while surfing through the internet; I came across a statement that someone else made about the fairly used clothe business. She said: “The hot business that can fetch you good cash /profit with little or no stress is " FAIRLY USED CLOTHES BUSINESS"!”

Is she right? Is she saying the truth? Or was she just trying to make a sale?

Well, well, well…. I wouldn’t just want to jump right in to support her. Let us first talk about some few things; we would get back to this part later on.

So let’s refresh our memory about the “fairly used clothes in bales” business.

Used clothes usually come in bales (a sealed transparent sack filled with fairly used quality clothes). There are bales coming from different countries such as Germany, UK, China and others.

In our store, we previously dealt on Germany and UK bales but we at some point noticed that customers are more in a rush to buy the China bales (because China is taking over the market and their bales are selling out faster). So some few years ago after studying the market, we completely switched all our current items on sale to only China bales.

China bales are big bales of 90kg – 100kg (almost a double of the Germany and UK bales of 55kg). The China bales are in transparent nylon covers, so the customer can easily see a preview of the item he/she is buying.

Some call the “fairly used clothes in bales” business a blind business. But with the transparent nylon cover that comes with the China bales, it reduces the idea of having to buy completely blind.

Note, please that in this business, you want to deal with someone or a company you know you can trust, someone who is ready to listen to you, solve whatever problem that might come up and make you smile all the time.

Now, let’s go straight to answering some few important questions.

How many pieces of clothes are in a bale?

Answer:-
A bale of 55kg usually comes with about 350 –to- 400 pieces of clothes inside. So, for a bale of 95kg (100kg), you get almost a double of 55kg. We would not be too specific with the exact quantity of pieces inside the bales, as the bales are being weighted in Kg.


How much can you make from the “fairly used clothes in bales” business?

Answer:-
In this business, if well informed and well guided (with some little tested experience), you can “possibly” make a double (but please do not quote me, I said possibly). For a new comer or a starter in the business, your goal is not to make double of your money; your goal should be to make anything between 10% -to- 50% gain.


Calculation Time:-

We are going to use the worst-case scenario for all our calculations here.

Let’s say you are in the line of Men T-Shirt (round/collar neck). For a big bale of 90kg (100kg), it is sold sometimes between 95,000 -to- 100,000 naira. But you ended up buying it at the price of 105,000 naira at the moment (maybe you couldn’t get this particular bale for a good price of 100,000 naira).

We mentioned above that you get almost a double of 55kg pieces; which is likely between 600 -to-750 pieces. But, let’s assume we only found 550 pieces of clothes inside the big bale (worst case scenario).

Last time, I bought a collar neck T-Shirt for 600 naira at Ikeja Rail-Way, Oshodi Express. But let us use 500 naira (maybe your place is cheaper than Ikeja Lagos).

So, here it is:

Cost of big bale for Men T-Shirt = 105,000
Pieces of clothes inside = 550 pieces
Selling price = 500

Remember, we are using the worst case scenario because we want to be realistic. And I don’t want to over promise you reading this post, so that you don’t get disappointed along the line.

We are not going to sell all the 550 pieces at the price of 500 naira. If not you will get a very high number of (550 x 500 = 275, 000 naira). No business is that so amazingly perfect.

So, out of the 550 pieces you have, maybe you only sell 200 pieces at the price of 500 naira.

200 pieces x 500 naira = 100,000 naira.

You are, then, left with only 350 pieces of clothing to sell. Out of the 350 pieces left, you sell 150 pieces for only 250 naira.

150 pieces x 250 naira = 37,500 naira

So, you are finally left with only 200 pieces of clothes. And let’s assume the last 200 pieces were not good enough, you just sold them off for only a horrible 100 naira.

200 pieces x 100 naira = 20,000 naira

That means, you have gotten a turn-over of 100,000 + 37,500 + 20,000 = 157,000 naira.

When you deduct your capital of 105,000 naira (cost of buying the bale), what will remain in your bank account will be only a small-chicken-change of 52,000 naira.

157,000 – 105,000 = 52,000 naira (a worst case scenario profit of 50%).

We just used a worst case scenario and we made about 50% gain. Now imagine you fasten your belt and go into the market, then, carefully put in some effort to do this business with some little tested experience. How much do you think you can make? Do the calculation for yourself!

Now, we will talk about people who do not have 100,000 to start.

Maybe you only have 40,000 –to- 50,000 naira.

Yes, there are big bales of 90kg within that price range. They are:

Ladies Three Quarter
Ladies Bum Short (sexy short)

If you buy Ladies Bum Short for 50,000 naira. And you only found 600 pieces inside the bale. And you decide to sell all of them for only a stupid 150 naira (hundred and fifty naira).

600 pieces x 150 naira = 90,000 naira (so you get a stupid profit of 30,000 naira as worst-case scenario).





….to be continued!

Romance / Re: It Is Unnatural To Be Gay, No One Is Born That Way by IsaacBuchi(m): 7:46pm On May 27, 2018
Thank you for putting that up mhisbliss, you're good!


mhisbliss:
I came across a thread where a guy claimed he discovered his sister is a lesbian, some of the comments on that thread got me annoyed and amused, most of the comments were "She's born that way, its natural" i know that this comment is influenced by the western world but we're not like them, we have norms, culture and a way of life, and we're supposed to be who we are.

Theres no evidence anywhere to prove that homosexuality is natural, it cannot be genetically or biologically defined, theres no gene responsible for homosexuality, and nothing about the human anatomy suggests homosexuality is natural, if you examine the male and female sex organ you'd know that it is designed to complement each other, and to reproduce, both needs to work together, therefore by design, we're supposed to be heterosexual not homosexual,

Our culture frowns at it, it is clearly unafrican, abnormal and every religion frowns at it, including christianity
Romans 1:26–27 follows this same reasoning. Paul says that men abandoned the natural sexual function of women and engaged in unnatural sex with men. His words make it clear that homosexual behavior is unnatural because it is a rejection of God’s design for sex. Homosexual desire, then, would also be unnatural for the same reason: it drives people to abandon the natural design and function of human sexuality.

No one is born gay, its a psychological and societal problem and it needs to be curtailed as soon as it is discovered.

You're doing well in making effort to live by Bible principles.

That means your conscience is still alive. You should be grateful. Many are suffering from a dead conscience, but they don't know.
1 Corinthians 2:14-16

However, marriage does not stop a bad habit.

The above 1Cor 2:14-16 also helps to understand we need the mind of Christ if we are to become a spiritual man.

How do you acquire the mental attitude of Christ? Romans 15:5 says it is God who grants it.

To gain the mind style of Christ then we need a lot of learning about Christ.2 Peter 3:18 It'll be a lot learning and unlearning.Romans 12:1, 2

Jehovah's witnesses can help you to gain the knowledge that has helps millions to live by God's standard. John 17:3 or visit our website www.JW.org for more help.


It is important attain to this maturity of a full grown man because:

TO BE carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace,” wrote the apostle Paul. Romans 8:6

The prospect of a happy family life & the peace of mind that only God gives can not be underestimated and there can never any regret pursing such course.







courage2702:
I need practical help to overcome my struggle against the use of prostitutes. I picked up this terrible habit shortly after my graduation from university sometime in 2012 and it is a vice that has wrecked my life. The last success was 13 months without any sexual involvement with any one before i had a sad event in my life that made me go back to my vommit. Any body with practical advice should please come up with it.. yesterday I went down on my knees again to ask him to give me another chance to fix my life for good. But I really need to take practical actions as faith without work is dead
I have an amazing future but this lifestyle may cut it off if don't fight it headlong.

I am 30+ old man that really wish to settle down but not until I quit this habit that has disconnected me from God as well as made my life miserable.
I am from a Christian background.

Business To Business / Re: Used Clothes In Bales Price Suppliers: Second Hand Clothes Wholesale by IsaacBuchi(m): 8:06am On May 17, 2018
Hello everyone,

I have put together a piece that could serve as a motivation for those of you contemplating getting newly into the business. But before then, I need to give you update as to what I was busy doing and what you should be expecting soon after this.

UPDATE:

The next piece of content is coming soon after this. Sure! I am putting it together.

So I took some time to take a walk in the market, spoke one-on-one with people selling some items, priced the items so as to get the current pricing. With this current pricing, we will be doing some little realistic calculations in the next post.

You know, before I drop the next write-up on this topic “Used Clothes In Bales Price Suppliers: Okrika Business” I need to get facts, real-live data so as to give you a realistic calculation. I do not want to give you false data.

Well, I also don’t expect my analysis to be 100% accurate and you shouldn’t expect that either (DISCLAIMER!!!).

Now, we want to talk about how long it takes to learn something New.

Some say: It takes 10,000 hours to learn something.

It’s NOT TRUE!

People get good at things with little bit of practice.

If you look at the study of skill acquisition you are going to see over and over and over a graph like this

….***IMAGE 1 (First image below)***…

From the graph researchers say that when you start, it takes a long time but with a little bit of practice you get better and better. So people get good at things just with a little bit of practice.

The interesting thing is that for skills we want to learn we don’t care so much about time, we just care about how good we are (whatever good happens to me).

Now, a different researcher used this curve

….***IMAGE 2 (Second image below)***…

So right here, the graph flips. This is the learning curve, the famous and widely known.

The story of the learning curve says that when you start, you are grossly incompetent and you know it. But with a little bit of practice you get really good really quick. So, that early level of improvement is really fast.

My question now is:

How long does it take from starting something and being grossly incompetent (and knowing it) to being reasonably good?

The answer:

Hopefully, a short period of time as possible. 20 hours. That’s it!

The Truth Is: You can go from knowing nothing about any skill that you can think of… want to learn a language, want to learn how to draw, want to learn a business, want to learn the “Okrika Business"?

If you put 20 hours of focused deliberate practice into that thing you will be astounded (astounded) at how good you are.

20 hours is doable, that’s about 45 minutes a day for about a month even with skipping a couple of days here and there. 20 hours isn’t that hard to accumulate.

NOW, there is a method to doing this, it’s not like you can just start fiddling around for about 20 hours and expect this massive improvement. There is a way to practice intelligently, there is a way to practice efficiently that will make sure that you invest those 20 hours in the most effective way that you possibly can.

And here is the method, it applies to anything:

1. Deconstruct the skill: decide exactly what you want to do and then look into the skill and then break it down into smaller pieces. The more you can break apart the skill the more you are able to decide what is the part of the skill that will actually help me get to what I want? And then you can practice those first. If you practice the most important things first you will be able to improve your performance and the least amount of time possible.

2. Learn enough to self-correct: get the resources about what you want to learn, but don’t use those as a way to procrastinate on practice by saying you must finish all the courses before you get started. What you want to do is to learn just enough that you can actually practice and self-correct or self-edit as you practice. So the learning becomes a way of getting better at noticing when you are making a mistake and then doing something a little different.

3. Remove barriers to practice: all of these things that get in the way of you actually siting down and doing the work. And the more you are able to use just a little bit of will power to remove the distraction keeping you from practicing, the more likely you are to actually sit down and practice.

4. Practice at least 20 hours: most skills have the part called the frustration barrier. You know the “grossly-incompetent-and-knowing-it-part”? That’s really frustrating. We don’t like to feel stupid. And feeling stupid is a barrier to us actually sitting down and doing the work. So by pre-committing to practicing whatever it is you want to do for at least 20 hours you would be able to over-come that initial frustration barrier and stick with the practice long enough to actually reap the rewards.

That’s it, it’s not rocket science.

These are the 4 various step you can use to learn anything. Pretty much anything you can think of…What do you want to do? Anything at all.

The major barrier to learning something new is not intellectual, it’s emotional… we are scared… feeling stupid doesn’t feel good in the beginning of learning anything new.

So the major barrier is not intellectual…it’s emotional…

but put 20 hours in anything
...it doesn’t matter what.

What do you want to learn?
Want to learn a language? Want to learn to cook? Want to learn to draw? Want to learn the “Okrika Business"? What do you want, go out and do that thing, it only takes 20 hours.

Have fun!

Used Clothes In Bales Price Suppliers: Where Can I Buy Bales of Second Hand Clothes



Please here is the contact of a reliable supplier. Papa: 0811 924 1774.

If you need cream quality first grade cloth of bales, please feel free to directly contact the reliable supplier.

Mondays - Fridays 9:00AM - 5:00PM (please only place a call during the specified business hours)



I see lots of business minded people in Nigeria asking series of important questions such as where to buy second hand clothes in bulk, where can I find used clothes in bales price suppliers or where can I get second hand clothes wholesale (second hand clothes online uk) and other questions such as "how can I start the okrika business?".

These people asking (where can i buy bales of second hand clothes) are said to be searching from all across the country (Nigeria) - from Lagos, Abuja, Kaduna, Jos, Onitsha, Enugu, Benin City, Akure, Minna, Oshogbo, Port-harcot, Delta, Akwa-Ibom and lots and lots and lots more.

I am not only going to show you how to find very good and trusted suppliers in used clothes in bales and their prices, but I will also tell you exactly where to buy second hand clothes in bulk - the best reliable place to buy. So read carefully.

I know these set of people are asking for various reasons, it could be that the person searching is trying to buy, or wanting to just know the price or maybe trying to learn a new business (humans are always learning).

Because I have witnessed it myself (i mean: I am currently into the second hand clothes business myself, i deal in wholesale), I have also seen people live their lives and earn a huge living from it, I have seen people earning from it and helping other people to survive (such as families and friends).

He does not sell half bales, he only sells full bale 100kg China bales and 55kg London bales.




Question: how can I start the okrika business

Answer: If you want to start the second hand clothes business, you need to first know what it requires financially (in terms of capital to start). That means that you need to know the price range of the items or bales. If you get a knowledge on the price range, then you can check your cash or the cash at hand to see if what you have is enough.

The bale prices, ranges between 40,000 -to- 130,000 Naira worth of bales.

The exact price you would now be thinking about, would then depend on what category of clothes and the grade you want to buy.

When I say category of clothes, I mean for example: Men Shirt (MCSH), Ladies Cotton Dress (LCD), Men's Cotton Pant (MCP), Men Underwear (M Under), Ladies Chiffon Dress (LSD), Ladies T-Shirt (LTS)...etc.

When I talk about the grade of the clothing, I mean (whether GRADE - A or Grade - B) STRONG ADVICE: always go for GRADE - A

I'm sorry that the questions weren't clear to you... this is what I mean ... since this Bible says that all of us sinned in Adam , and also shows that all are sinners in the sight of God.....

then the question is how are you now justified and declared forgiven from your sins by God....

or are all still sinners and are not yet forgiven?
how do we get forgiven by God from our sins?


Okay.

We read at Romans 3:23-24New International Version (NIV)

23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

Also at 1 John 1:7New International Version (NIV)

7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all[a] sin


So by the blood of christ we receive purification of our sin.

What must we do to be truly forgiven?

We need to learn about God properly and be ready to turn completely from our sins.


This we can find at

John 17:3New International Version (NIV)

3 Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent


Acts 3:19New International Version (NIV)

19 Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord


Does this sound satisfactory? Feel free to ask more I'll get you all your answers

6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

DisGuy:


Your friend wants to travel out for? Studies, vacation, family? Tell him to get the form and fill it himself, if he's having problems filling it in- he can ask for help

Follow any of the threads on Nairaland and other resources to get an insight into interview process.


Your kind reply has been grandly appreciated. I've told him to go ahead and pick the form. He's says he is travelling for work.

For a want of a better thread to ask this, please @justwise @DisGuy can you kindly help me with this? A friend of mine wants to travel out. This is his first time. He found one consultant like that looks truthful. He was asked to pay 64K to apply for the visa, once he passes the interview and gets the visa then he can pay up the remaining sum of 500k. Does this sound genuine? Do you have any advice and or any consultant you can reffer him to? If there is any link to a thread that would be helpful too I'll greatly appreciate it.

Please, he would like to start the applying today, so a snappy reply would be gracious appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Like you many have lost confidence in religion. However, no matter our religious position, we need to accept that humans cannot inherently do without religion. We are created to be spiritual and we cannot find true inner joy if we do not satisfy our spiritual need. (Sounds like we are doomed, right? Not at all)

God himself has made provison for us to satisfy this need. Our work is to look for him till we find him. And when we do find him, our lives would have meaning, we would find freedom from anxious worry and peace of God that excels all thought.

God is not far from each one of us (Acts 17:26, 27) If you search for him, he will let himself be found by you.” (1 Chronicles 28:9)


To help empathise with your feelings let me borrow this note:



IF YOU have been disillusioned with organized religion or have dismissed it as irrelevant, you are not alone. In fact, the number of people who are choosing not to be affiliated with organized religions is mushrooming.

Some have abandoned organized religions because they believe that such institutions breed hypocrisy and intolerance. Others find it too complicated to follow a structured form of worship. Still others feel that organized religion is nothing but a superfluous “middleman” between God and his worshippers. What does the Bible really teach about organized religion?

God’s Friends in Ancient Times

The Bible provides a clear description of the form of worship practiced by ancient patriarchs, such as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For instance, on one occasion God said: “I have become acquainted with [Abraham] in order that he may command his sons and his household after him so that they shall keep Jehovah’s way to do righteousness and judgment.” (Genesis 18:19) Abraham was a friend of God and thus had a personal relationship with the Creator as an individual. But he also worshipped in the company of his household. Likewise, other patriarchs who were friends of God engaged in worship as a community, usually with immediate and extended family members as well as their servants.

In time, God required the ancient Israelites, and later the first-century Christians, to congregate for worship. (Leviticus 23:2, 4; Hebrews 10:24, 25) Those occasions for organized worship included singing, readings from the Scriptures, and public prayer. (Nehemiah 8:1-8; Colossians 3:16) The Scriptures also prescribed that a qualified body of men lead the congregation in worship.—1 Timothy 3:1-10.

The Benefits of Worshipping as a Congregation

Based on these Scriptural patterns, it is reasonable to conclude that today, too, God would expect his friends to worship him in an organized fashion. And there are benefits from worshipping God as part of a congregation.

For instance, the Scriptures liken the genuine worshipper to one who is traveling over a cramped road; and in another instance, to a runner in a race. (Matthew 7:14; 1 Corinthians 9:24-27) When running a long, hard race over difficult terrain, a runner may easily tire out and eventually give out. However, a runner can often push himself beyond his personal threshold if he has encouragement from others. Likewise, a spiritually-minded person can successfully maintain his relationship with God despite adversities if he has encouragement from other worshippers.

This explains the words at Hebrews 10:24, 25, where the Bible says: “Let us consider one another to incite to love and fine works, not forsaking the gathering of ourselves together.” In fact, the Scriptures state that true worshippers would render worship as brothers and sisters, united as a figurative body.

Three organized groups of people reach out to a single person
Should you dismiss all organized religion?
The Bible describes that body, or congregation, as being united by a bond of love and peace. For instance, Ephesians 4:2, 3 admonishes true worshippers to act “with complete lowliness of mind and mildness, with long-suffering, putting up with one another in love, earnestly endeavoring to observe the oneness of the spirit in the uniting bond of peace.” How could you comply with this admonition if your worship were independent and detached from other worshippers?

It is God’s will that instead of being a loose association of spiritually-minded individuals, true worshippers merge into a tight community of faith. The Bible exhorts worshippers to speak in agreement, to avoid divisions, and to be “fitly united in the same mind and in the same line of thought.” (1 Corinthians 1:10) Those words would make little sense if God wanted people to worship him only as individuals apart from one another.

Clearly, evidence from the Bible points to an organized form of worship as the kind that is acceptable to God. And the organized religion that the Scriptures describe, the one that God sponsors, can give you the support you require to be successful in satisfying your spiritual needs.—Matthew 5:3.

Granted, many organized religions today are guilty of hypocrisy and countless atrocities. Yet, this does not mean that you should repudiate all organized religion. There must be a religion on earth that is organized to show love to all people—a religion that is organized to educate others about God’s moral principles. Such an organized religion can help you to build genuine faith. The Bible provides the necessary clues that can help you to identify the kind of organized worship that is acceptable to God.

Now it is easy to want to remain moral by ourselves without the help of religion, just as you want for your sister. But that is impossible. We cannot be truly moral without religion.


Another important question this raises is, How can I find true religion. These links to the ff articles could prove helpful
