The old man is trying to live long by avoiding family problems like billing.

He is just smart by half, because the life of a man is only meaningful if he has a sense of responsibility towards his family.

It is not easy, but it is a joyful burden.

I greet you all Nairalanders.

Please permit me to share this thing my brother is doing to me.

As my life was about to become useless in the village, I came to the city to stay with my older brother and learn phone repairs.

My plan is to have this handwork so that when i gain admission, i wont rely totally only on education which has failed many in the country.

But my blood brother I'm staying with is behaving unkind to me as though i am a total stranger to him. Even total strangers deserve better treatment.

I'm only an apprenctice and yet to start making money. Most of the days, i trek to the place and return because I dont have transport.

He leave house first before me and return before me too. Before I would come back, he would cook noodles and finish it, washed the pot and everything and keep them clean as though nothing happened. Sometimes he eat outside and come back home and ignore me.

Except there's another way for me, that is how I would go hungry throughout the night and as early as possible in the morning, he would leave the house without reasoning anything food.

I'm seriously starving. I thought he would share the little he has with me till I also start making money. Is this how a senior brother should behave with the junior one?

He's being unkind to me and now I feel like hiding the Garri I brought from the village from him.

But is this how we should behave as blood brothers?

He can't even be there for me to free from this apprenticeship.

He doesn’t see you as a brother. He sees you as a burden

But the verification process is now stringent .

I am very very angry right now. I couldn't sleep last night. That is why I'm bringing this here this morning before I do something very bad. A father should be after the growth of his son and not after ruining him.

Please you guys should help me look into this matter. I understand that it was a matter of life and important concern.

I'm seriously struggling in the city to eck a living for myself and do the little I can for my family also. My father was a petty trader who hardly can provide adequate for the family. Some of us who come from a very poor background would understand this better. I mean coming from where absolutely nothing is kept for you. No support from the family and nothing, nothing and nothing. You are the one who die and same you would have to pour yourself water to come back to life. You, you and only you.

I buy fast consuming products and supply to people and make some gains from there. Sometimes I hawk the products. I was able to save up to N150k. Around May this year, I went to the village and bought some rubbers of palm oil and store them to sell around November/December and make gains.

Last week, I got a call that wind pulled off our house roof in the village. Since they are using small torchlight phone, I didn't get to see how serious the situation was. Even though I didn't have money, I sent N15k to help fix it. My father later called me and complained bitterly on why I sent just 15k, that according to the carpenter, that materials and workmanship would cost N65k. In my mind, I was just like, does this man even know how I survive here in the city?

For two nights, they didnt sleep in the house as the wind pulled off the rooof.

On Tuesday, I learnt my younger brother was being operated of Hernia. I know about the hernia but was under plan to raise money for it. And I knew there was no money to settle medical bills for operation. So I was shocked where they got the money to do operation.

As I traveled down yesterday to see them, dear Nairaland friends, all my rubbers of palm oil has been sold and the money spent on fixing the roof and paying for the medical bills for the hernia operation without my notice.

I am not taking this kindly with my father who engineered the whole thing and I want to arrest him to refund my money.

That is my life investment and it took me so much to raise the amount. Due to how things are now. I even wanted to sell two rubbers to invest back as the business is facing challenges now.

What should I do here to recover my money back? If I have another money, I would over look it but that is my life investment of my labour.

God Abeg

Good day, sirs and ma. I moved to Abuja to work as an Administrative assistant at (name withheld) close to Galadinmawa. The agreed pay with my employer was 50,000 which I accepted because I don't want to stay idle and I wanted to garner experience.

The Friend's house I stay is in Kagini. Those that know Abuja will know this place. The transportation cost from the house to my place of work is 1,100 and coming back same, which makes it 2,200 every day excluding Saturdays and Sundays.

After crossing my T's and dotting my i's I found out that The total cost is 2200 x25 days= 55,000 with a 5,000 deficit. The organization provide light breakfast and lunch. So, my food is a bit covered.

I am just confuse now. I talked to the organization for a pay rise but they gave me a stiff neck.

Please what will you advice me to do. I am seriously frustrated with the look of things. Do you think it's worth it.

P.s. I have worked for a month there now. I am scared my friend will complain that I am not contributing.


. I'm drained and frustrated.

Please rent a room close to your office or ask staffs who stay nearer to your office if they can accommodate you or sublet their rooms to you. Just make sure, your rent is not more than 2-3 months salary

Yes! You read the topic right. Why do several tech guru's here on nairaland find it difficult mentoring upcoming tech enthusiasts. No matter how hard you send them pm or mentions, they would hardly reply.
In conclusion, Nigerians find it difficult giving back to their community.

No matter how hard you send them pm or mentions, they would hardly reply.

They might be busy or not interested in mentoring others (for now). It is not wickedness. Everyone is the master of his/her time. If you can’t find a mentor here, please use online materials or register in a tech school. Peace

They don’t know how to make money and build wealth. Most of them are satisfied with the amount they earn, since they can borrow if they need more.

Poverty die die die 😂

Evestar200:
Have you ever lend money to someone and when is time for them to pay they will tell you or do something that will make you regret ever helping them?

Share your stories.

You don’t have to lend anyone shi shi, if you don’t give them, they will still survive.

why is linux like that?


I wish I had a macbook
but I am poor

Linux is unlike your regular OS.
What exactly do you need it for?

Think of it as the skeletal OS without the “muscles”, “organs” or “blood”. It is just BASIC. You get it?
Also, try to read the documentation of your preferred Linux distro before installing.

Almost all African countries

Haha

Egypt, Kenya and Morocco are not on the list.

Nigeria need to wake up. This humiliation is enough

One of the easiest ways to get scammed right now is through Japa packages. That "little" money you don't value , some people are smart enough to swindle you of it.

You go get sense last last.

Learn the basics first.

For web development - HTML, CSS, JS & PHP
For App development - Use App builders (Online or Offline) - be ready to pay for subscription packages.
For desktop app development - C++

Don't be a jack of all trades - pick one niche

The credit officer has to confirm your source of livelihood before disbursement of the loan. So you must have something doing before you can be considered whereas loan app only request for your bvn and loan is sure

Thanks for the enlightenment.

None.

Take Loan and Moan later........
My advice: go for a government credit scheme, not these certified Ponzis who will milk and embarrass you at the end....

Hmm. Nice suggestion. Thanks

Depends. They have a loan product for business where they cross guarantee each other. The product is for women.

I don't know if they give it to men.

Thanks for the information

LAPO loan is mostly for salary earners or business people with daily turnover. Payment is either weekly for business people or monthly for salary earners.

LAPO doesn't take any excuses when it comes to repayment.

Thanks for your contribution. Do LAPO ask for collateral, if the person borrowing is not a salary earner?

Have you ever borrowed money from LAPO? If yes, how easy was the repayment?

LAPO or Loan Apps - Which is better?

Please share your experience with either / both ?

I recently noticed my boy complaining of itching on his back. When I checked I noticed is boil. I quickly googled it and found out is chickenpox.

I took him to a chemist and it was diagnosed as one. Please house what must have caused it?

Picture attached.

Viewer discretion

I had this infection in JSS3. It was caused by poor dietary hygiene & spreading clothes on the floor. I used to drink any water without checking if it was clean or not.

After I survived, I started paying close attention to my life. The experience was terrible. Itching, discomfort, headache.

Don't compete with women in kitchen matters, they don't like it.

Lol

Hi! I have a laptop with the following specs:

Dell
Intel (R) Core (TM) i3 - 32272
1.90 GHz, 2.00GB
Storage = 111BG

Windows 10 Pro with 64-bit operating system

I want to start learning app development but i just want to know if the laptop will be suitable for it. I'd appreciate your responses.

You can't use it for mobile app development.
The ram size is too small, you need at least 8gb ram, if you choose to install android studios, unity game engine or visual studio.

How do I allow access to VPN software? Is it on my system setting or VPN setting?

Your VPN must provide you with a dedicated IP, and IP whitelisting features.

Then, whois the DNS address of the remote website you are working with.

Once you get the DNS address, whitelist it in your VPN.

*I believe your employer is trying to access your conversation via the remote website?*
