Note:- Even though I’m skipping school, I don’t think I’m skipping education.

I'm in the same boat! My mom told me that I would have an inferiority complex the rest of my life without college... thanks, mom. But at the same time, I was making more monthly than my graduated friends, with debt. And I didn't spend four years writing papers, staying up all night, being stressed out. Unless you're in the tech field, I'm just not sure a BA is all that important.

I started this business two years ago. An older friend told me that we could make good money selling fruit. We buy the fruit from villages and bring it to the city where it gets a much higher price. My friend is six years older than me, but he couldn’t keep up, so I set off on my own. I work every day. I’ve already made enough money to buy some land. I’m going to build a house and use the rest for farming. My parents tell me that I should be in school. I respect their views, but I also make more money than them. So it’s hard to listen. Plus I’m learning a lot about business. Even though I’m skipping school, I don’t think I’m skipping education.

My brother started a business also buying pallets of discarded textbooks and selling them to college students for cheaper than they could buy at the campus store. When Amazon came along that business failed. Then he had a business selling beer signs in malls, that business also failed. Now he is on business #3, that business is very successful. But it took him many years to get to that point. I think once you've had your own business, managed money, managed inventory, managed employees, it's very hard to go back to college and sit in a classroom. I agree with this young man that it's a different kind of education. College is not for everyone, but it's good to have a fall back. (btw, my brother makes more money than I do now!

Hello House,
Is your boy here !!!!!!

Please, I need bits of advice I was refused student visa twice back in 2011 and 2013 but later graduated from Nigeria University 2014 and now I have intention visiting the US soil on a (vacation) tourist visa. I'm married with two beautiful kids also got a good pay job as Mechanical Engineering with one of the leading beverage company. My Simple Questions are

1. I don't have any US contact (without family or friend in the US ) the ones I got are not willing to help and I'm not planning to attend any event conference in the US.

2. My passport is new without any country visa yet.

what's other best intention to visit US soil for first timer visa seeker like me, it's possible to get a US visa base on my story line for vacation reason and shopping for my family or what are other best way to sell my story to the VO.

Note: - I understood no sure way to get a visa but the Grace and favor of God with a lot of prayers. just wanna learn from others. Thanks

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO THE HOUSE

The first important part is getting admission Bsc or Msc (which ever one is applicable to u), then open the blocked account or provide DOS, and then apply for ur visa... Visa application could take up to a month in all.
The douments are straight forward, check the University's website for relevant documents needed and the Embassy website for requirements on study visa. For admission, they are basically Waec, Bsc, transcript (certified), motivation letter. U can search for schools at www.daad.de or www.mastersportal.eu.
It's better u direct further questions to the house, so that others can share their contributions too cos I don't know it all.

oga emaka thank you i wish there is way to pass some love to you but i say a very big prayer for you god will bless you beyoung human understanding you will grow bigger in every aspect of your life in jesus name this coming year 2014 you shall not lack any good in your life and family god bless you .

E be like say agent chop ur money well well for that US visa. For German student visa, u don't need an agent as the process is straight forward and simple. As for the 8040 euro, it can be replaced by the Verpflichtungserklärung. If ur wife to be is getting u that, then u don't need to provide 8040 euro. As for ur love life, I don't know about that one cos I'm not a marriage counsellor. For information about German student visa, u may have to read through the thread and get all the info u need. If u are not clear about anything, u can come back to ask us

oga emeka i say very big thank you again you given me some idea to work with next year you change my way of thinking.

About the us agent hell no i processed it myself , i know everybit of us visa process just that i have no luck when it come interview usually scare and shakely facing the vof anyway thank you and i hope i can pull throught with german visa easy .

i have some question oga emeka

how long to take to process german student visa and the documents re they straight forward paper like america viss process

where can get list of universities apart from google site. Big thanks to the house

emeka55: @Luckchild, first point of correction, change that "we fell in love" to "she fell in love" because u no follow am fall in love. U just wan use am enter Germo. This ur topic is quite delicate for a public forum cos u don't know who's reading it.
First question, is she truly interested in u? And is she truly serious to come down here to marry u. Sometimes they may not really mean what they say online and could just be playing along or be acting up cos she saw ur n.ude picture.

Second question: what's her financial status? Does she have enough money to help u go through the whole process and cater for u? I'm sure at this point, her age or looks don't matter to u.

Third question: Are u ready to face the consequencies of an arrangee marriage? It's not as creamy as it looks cos she may help u get there and still help get u deported. U can only get a visa from here but the main relevant documents that would help u remain there, u have to get from there and she knows the system more than u. U would have to do what she says and serve her until she's done with u. U may try to get her pregnant to help ur status, if she decides not to have ur baby, even juju won't help u. If u get there and divorce her, na u go suffer am except u have enough money to back it up cos everything you'll have will be divided.

....MY ADVICE.....

Since u said u once applied for US student visa, it means u get brain for book and school dey ur agenda even if u no wan go am. Apply through education, get admitted to a school in Germany and have her sponsor u by providing Verpflichtungserklärung and when u get ur visa, the rest for u is puff puff & chinchin. At least with 2yrs German visa u can sought urself out.
The same time you'll spend pursuing couple/reunion visa, learning deutsch nd sewing wedding gown to get married in Ikeja high court, u fit use am get admission to 5 schools.
Finally, the choice is urs. I don try
