FellaG:
Hi all, moderator pls help me push to fp. I need good advise like badly.

I joined the banking system about a decade ago. Young and naive. I got carried away by thier flashy suits and top tech phones.
The moment I entered I realized all these was a scam. Those suits you see are being paid for, installmentally for 3months. The phones in 6 months etc Bankers are one of the least paid professions today considering the amount of time they put Into thier work (7am to even 10pm) and the level of risk they are subjected to. The sad thing about working for a Nigerian bank is once u leave, u realize that you can't use the skill elsewhere. You are technically back to square one.

This is my case. I spent the last decade of my life working in a financial institution as a teller. Quite wastful considering the fact that I know nothing other than counting money for customers. I worked for 7days in a week. 10yrs passed In a flash. No time to even get additional qualifications.

Before joining, my friends adviced me against it, but coming from a humble background the need to get independent fast was more appealing. Why I stayed so long is a topic for another day (have you heard of employment fraud) anyway,
I left last week and I can say I am happy I finally got a chance and time to learn any new trending knowledge and I am prepared to start afresh. I will be 35 this year. With a background in construction mgt I thought of copywritting, digital marketing etc but I love to learn technical stuff.. Pls advise if any. I know IT related careers will sell here and abroad.

I've thought of programming, cloud tech, data tech etc.

Please I need your advice, which path should I follow now that at the age of 40 I will regain all the time I lost in the banking field.

I can get an MSc but I want a high income paying skill that the likes of the oil majors wouldn't mind employing even at my age or if I am to be self employed I can be distinctive in that area.

Niaralanders, pls help a brother

It's good you left. Banking job is health hazard ; you are being glued to the screen for many hours, you dedicate your whole day to the job, no reasoning about the outside world just attending to customers...etc

You now have time to explore and learn many things.

Just imagine being glued to your computer for 12 hours a day, in 6 days that's 12x6= 72 hours in 6 days which could damage the eye secretly without you knowing.

No time for yourself and your kids;families also

No time to exercise, run a check up on yourself

No time to think about yourself.


Banking jobs if at all should be halved shifted( morning and afternoon) . Working 6am to 10 pm is suicidal.

One day you hear someone collapsed and died.

Being a boss of your own is the best.

I love her in movies, she is dam too good.

Samuel chukwueze, you are in a wrong place... That idiot is the reason Abians groans today.

But what do i know?

What do you know about politics?

You are amongst the reason Abians are groaning today. Change your concept of thinking and stop the critics.

What's the purpose of this show, even the name gave it away

1) A number of two digits is increased by 9. When the digits are reversed, the sum of the digit is 5. Find the number.

2) A number of two digits is such that twice the tens digit is 8 less than seven times the unit digit. When the digits are reversed, the number is decreased by 9. What is the number?

3) A number is such that thrice it is 14 less than five times the number. Find the number.

4) The tens digit of a two-digit number is 3 greater than the units digit. When the digits are reversed, the number is reduced by 27. What is the number?

5) if i invest #3000 at x% and #4000 at y%, my annual income is #290. If i had invested #600 at x% and #700 at y % my income would have been #53. Find x and y.

A number, such that thrice it.. 3(10x+y)= 5(10x+y)-14.....1

30x+3y= 50x+5y-14....2
20x+2yy=14.....3
Divide all through by 2
10x+y=7

The number (10+y)= 7

Ans = 7

Let the tens digit be a and the unit digit be b.
Twice the tens digit= 2a
Is 8 less than 7 times the unit digit which is 7b
2a = 7b - 8
When the digits are reversed is 10b + a= 10a+b-9

2a=7b-8.....1
10b+a=10a+b-9..….2

From equ 2

9b-9a=-9 x -2
7b-2a=8 x 9
-18b+18a=18...4
63b-18a=72....5
Add equ 4 and 5
45b=90
b= 90/45= 2
From equ4

-36+18a=36
a= 72/18= 3

So, ab =32

Alhajiemeritus:
1. Two digits, a & b
then
10a+b = "the number"
:
Write an equation for each statement:
:
a number of two digits is increased by 9.
10a + b + 9
When the digits are reversed,
10a + b + 9 = 10b + a
10a - a + 9 = 10b - b
9a + 9 = 9b
divide by 9
a + 1 = b
a - b = -1
"the sum of the digit is 5"
a + b = 5
:
Use elimination
a - b = -1
a + b = 5
------------Adding eliminates b, find a
2a = 4
a = 2
Find b
2 + b = 5
b = 3
23 is the original number, add 9 you get 32, reversed digits, add up to 5

I no get time for the rest.
Let someone else do it.

You copied someone else's solution. You think we don't know..... You asked google and you copied and pasted the first result. Lolz..

For number 1

Nowadays youths have been lucid, they no longer wanna stick to their parent's advise. All they say,"I am a big girl now, I am a big boy now, I don't need any corrections... "


Dying without knowing Christ.

PlanetZero:
See the Change we voted for?

I know someone will come and attack me. If those we elected especially the president cannot be hold responsible for the situation in the country, then who am I suppose to hold responsible? My headmaster?

Economy.... crawling
Security... terrible
Welfare... horrible

And yet they will say we should not hold the president responsible

Thet something doesn’t reach u today does not mean it won’t reach u tomorrow or someone very close to you

The revival of this country is our collective effort and we don’t need to be partisan about it

Nigerians don't like the light. You get mocked for doing the right thing.

So I waited at the traffic light to turn green, others crossed when it was at red, as it turned yellow, then green,I crossed. People were laughing at me.

Hope you now see why this nation isn't progressing. I got ridiculed for doing the right thing, don't be surprised to see a comment blaming the young man.

Sign of a failed nation. They are meant to protect people, lives and properties and not to obtain, destroy and make live miserable to the people.

This is just a debacle.

The secret to victory is who comes last to make the deal.
11:55pm man A agreed on 100milla
11:59pm man B agreed on 101milla

So I did it for man B.

Use wisdom if you can decode the above.

That's very exasperating... Is she aware that BBn sees everything done in the house. Copulating on live show tells a lot about the housemates, the way they were selected and winnowed from other contestants.

Fornication is no longer a sin in the eyes of people. Don't be surprised millions like their last night sex. Some of the guys are very randy;all about the Bleep.

On behalf of my family and i, we condemn this act by Erica and Kiddw'ya.

May God help this generation, for many will go to hell. I wonder how humans would reason in the next five years..,

I would advise you to ignore all the girls you had had relationship with before and currently.


Find a new lover and make her your gold.

Seetto:
So kowa party can win

If forth position could make first, KOWA has every probability as other parties.

Seetto:
I didn't see obaseki winning this election..

Don't be deceived by what you see or read online, any party can win.

It better be. More reason why I hate to have a dealings involving "loan"

You share your profit or intact; you are indirectly giving out your profit.

We are getting there....

My question is this: "how did they know he's jobless?

Any money(the profit you make daily) should be calculated at the end of the month, then 10% should be for tithe.

IgboSomalia:
Meanwhile, Obaseki is busy fighting everyone including his family members.

You read and believed
You didn't even bother to authenticate the veracity of the news.



We are in the technology age, just one click and everything changes--- ideas, thought, and belief.

Chelsea the useless club.

Bayern Munich will scatter Chelsea with this their useless defence.

Chelsea no get defence

Pedro in, Pulisic out

It can be any team . 90 mins plus extra time says it all

Kekereekun123:
we know you will read it and be forming traveling guru like you have been forming hahahah

Very bad grammar. Please correct yourself

The Op doesn't know what she wants. I believe the next guy that would toast you would be better than this current on... It continues like this till you contract disease.
Stick to one person and change him to whoever you want him to be to you.

As a result of COVID-19, many of them can't stay hidden forever. Like how would they feed??

Professorcplus:

Too much of BBNaija. Only what the youths now know is sex! sex!! sex!!!

Fornicating on live TV is so uncalled for, what are the youths learning?


Take a look at those housemates, almost all the girls wanna twerk like Mercy, every guy wanna be in a relationship like Ike and Mercy.. they believe many Nigerians love watching immoral stuffs.....


My only fear is the youths, I mean, the children watching the show.

From maryamaka- to short skirt, to bum shot to pant to G-string. Who knows what next after G-string....

Righteousness89:
If the Blues can strike a kind of exchange deal with Athletico Madrid for Oblack, then they are good to go..

The Blues need a Keeper not a Kepa..

But let us not blame the keeper, when the defence is open, then a keeper will conceive goals.

Blame Chelsea defenders and not the keeper.

Wisdom should be applied.

allthingsgood:
Lolsss

Obaseki it's over

I wonder what made you to come into the final conclusion.....

Have you seen people from the other party's own?

If I was you, I would just sit on a fence and wait for the final result before making a move.
