You argument is that $2m puts you among the elites in Nigeria and I say it doesnt because the assets that make you an elite cant be bought with $2m

So a billionaire in Nigeria is not amongst the elites? The same country were 95% of it's population won't see 150million in their lifetime. Dayo won't kill person.

TemporaryHansel:
You're missing the point. The comparison was about lifestyle feel, not raw financial power.

Of course, $200M is a whole different league, jets, sports teams, generational wealth, no argument there. But what I'm saying is in Nigeria, $2M feels and functions like $200M does in the US.
You live large, people treat you like royalty, and you get access, comfort, and power in ways that even $10M in the US won’t buy you.

Can you buy a private jet with $2M? No. But do you need one to live like a king here? Also no. You can rent one, move around like a boss, own top-tier property, have a full staff, and still be the biggest man in most rooms, all without being anywhere near $200M rich.

So again, it's not about the dollar-to-dollar comparison. It's about impact per dollar in context.

Most of them are not actually reading your post to understand. It's just to argue. One is bringing $4m dollar house in Lagos like they aren't houses in America that sells for 150 to 200million plus.

donjazzet:
You guys are not getting his point. Maybe it's because he's using the dollar figure.
$2m is approximately 3.5 billion naira. That is indeed enough to guarantee you the life of a king in Nigeria. You can build a correct mansion with like 400 million naira in the lesser high brow and enough to maintain your wealth while being able to afford premium healthcare in Nigeria.

Yeah his comparison with that of $200m is far fetched. But the main point stands that the lifestyle of 3.5 billion naira is better in our own dysfunctional society to it's equivalent in the USA where you're still very much in check by the society.

Just few months back the argument was 95% of Nigerians won't see up to 160million in their lifetime now we are seeing 2million dollars won't make you live a lavish lifestyles in this same country.

Na this kin thing dayo dey like.

swiz123:
So it has gotten to forcing banks to snitch? Well, it will be interesting to see how this thing will play out given that an account can do over 5 million transactions in a month and profit no go pass 150k. While some with less than that figure make more in profit.

Does this include Opay and others?

swiz123:
If you think you are successful at pull out over an extended period of time, then you might be celebrating low sperm count without knowing .

We are eating good either ways

Also add Dembele >>>>> Neymar.

KingTom:
But the 3rd parties under their umbrella will call and message you about these loans constantly and consistently. I think this happens when you open the loan section of your app and explore then leave without taking the loan, e go be like you carry woman go outing come leave am for restaurant... dem go wan use call wound you

Wahala

KingTom:
Ok so Flexi for palmpay and Easmoni for opay

Exactly.

KingTom:
I opened the loan section one day and looked at the interest rates, omo it was bloody, interests were as high as 16.8% I think the lowest was about 9% and that's when you spread the loan tenure for a longer period say 6 months, meaning if you borrow 100k you'll pay back 160k

Their loan section is owned by a 3rd party.

Palmpay and Opay will never call you to come and take loan. Thats just a big fat lie.

TemporaryHansel:
Nothing like that bro. I have been using both for over three years.

I have never seen any as well. It's the app you search for in Google play you see regular as ads.

TemporaryHansel:
I don’t know if it’s just me, but I honestly think it’s high time the government started inviting people like this for proper investigation — let them prove they actually made their money through the means they claim.

Because unlike some of us who can spot the lie from a mile away, there are plenty of impressionable people out there swallowing that propaganda hook, line, and sinker. Next thing, they’re neck-deep in fraud, rituals, or all sorts of immoral nonsense — all because they’re chasing a lifestyle built on pure fiction.

If the government doesn’t wake up, we're headed straight for disaster. Yahoo boys and corrupt politicians have already torn a chunk out of the moral fabric of this country. But if they allow this madness to keep spreading, there’ll be nothing left to salvage

You that is actually breaking the law by avoiding tax, what should government do to you? You can't be the one preaching morality.

TemporaryHansel:
It’s not far-fetched to think she’s on the OS train. Being married doesn't stop anything.
She used to roll with Ama, and you know how the saying goes: “Show me your friends, and I’ll tell you who you are”.

She might even be into money laundering. A lot of these so-called content creators and celebrities aren’t just influencers — they’re cash-washing machines for politicians. That soft life is just their cut of the loot.

She claims she’s an investor with multiple streams of income, but when Egungun asked her she couldn't name anything aside hair.

Why will a Nigeria politician need to wash money? In this same country were snakes swallowed money and nothing happened. This is not Power

Amigoss:
That business niche is too saturated for the numbers to make sense moreso how many Lekki babes go buy hair of over 1million without batting an eye

How many young girls dey use phones of over 400k plus. Yahoo boys are the ones funding those lifestyles. Phones, wigs, bags, business etc.

TemporaryHansel:
Na people like this spoil all these girls. Why tf will you send people money for just existing.
I really hate it when married folks don't take their partners seriously. You can't claim to love someone and still cheat on them. If you can't take your partner seriously why bother committing yourself?.

Don't be surprised if he has siblings begging for financial help that he has ignored. He might has never sent his own wife that amount to appreciate her and the usual suspects here would still defend him.

GloriousGbola:
also it is hard to pull chicks if you are ugly.
that ceo guy i talk about - nigga is ugly or at best plain. i cant see the chicks he was getting it on with giving him the time of the day if he was not oga at the top

You think this is secondary school

Give me your address make I come spam "90 minutes is long at the bernebeu" for your house.
Devvy is desperate. Me no kuku send am.. na the others dey find time respond

You could have easily blocked him rather than all those personal insults and beside it's just banter. There's no rule or guidelines when it comes to banter. Devvy keep on the good work and continue terrorizing these folks

Smh.......Resulting to personal insults because of football banter. Devvy is really giving you lots nightmares
