Travel / Re: Japa: People Now Liquidate Investments, Savings To Leave Nigeria — Ali Baba by mishooo(m): 6:00pm On Jun 19
IbeOkehie:




I never tell lies because I don't post anonymously. I only post on what I'm sure about. Salary data for high earning EMPLOYEES, especially those of hospitals and non-profits, are widely available online. Sometimes you can even get the salaries of high level employees at private quoted companies. There are many Nigerian employees I know of who earn over $500K annually. There's this Yoruba guy working for oil company in Houston that I looked up, he was making $400K per year. Then there was my neighbor for a while and another I know of for fact, but I'll just go with a hospital CEO. Many working doctors at these hospitals earn more than the CEO, again I know this for a FACT.

In all I write, I'm not overly concerned about HIGH INCOME earners or the top of the pyramid in ANY COUNTRY. My main concern is the PROSPECTS for average people like me who come from the poor to middle classes.

This is graduation season in the USA. I have three family friends or acquaintances who just graduated as nurses in Texas, Virginia and Georgia, ALL of them already had Nigerian university degrees before they arrived here 5 to 10 years ago, one of them is a Law graduate from one of the old federal universities. Their average starting pay is $33/hr, and they each got CASH signing bonus of $20K to $30K. I'm sure each of them can now comfortably send ₦500K = $325 per month to Nigeria, but I would advise them to use it as payment on a 5 year new car loan instead grin

One of them her husband is already a Nurse Practioner and I know their starting salary is $130K per year. So right now that couple is earning over $200K per year, guaranteed. That means they earn more than 90% of all households in the USA according to IRS data. I suppose they should have stayed in Nigeria or maybe return now and aspire to be the next Jim Ovia and Chinyelu Okoli or Dangote and Don Jazzy in Nigeria. LOL, I hope it works out for you all.

Good Luck to Nigerians.



This man here says a lot of truth.
Speculatively, I'll say the ratio of legally migrated educated (BSc/HND) Nigerians doing well abroad (mainly US/CA/UK) is about 8/10 compared to 3/10 in Nigeria according to my limited data as a Statistician

How does this work bro?

It doesn't work at all. Amazon shares is 126 as a t today. 100 unit is $12,600 - which is more than the $10k amount the OP has - barring transfer and agent fees. Please explain how 100 units can make you a high impact investor.

FYI: Facebook is $303

If I have such amount I will use it to purchase shares from a blue chip or fortune 500 company and be given a HB1 visa or a special kind of visa given to foreign investors. From there you can go there anytime you want without the embarrassment of being called a bloody Nigerian. And you convert 10m to dollars and you will see you are gonna be a highly rated investor. Like 10k to 12k dollars worth. Over there you know it is a lot of money.

Migrating overseas is expensive except you want to do your postgraduate studies. You have to look at cost of living. Don't just come here asking people who may not have a full/detailed idea of how cost of living is in some countries.

Malta or Luxembourg is okay for that amount but if you want to quickly be a millionaire in dollars, buy shares from amazon, Facebook, Google or Apple Inc.

Cheers.

Many things are not true in this writeup. Do you know how much those shares you mentioned cost? How can 10-12k be a lot of money when ordinary IT guys are collecting that after taxes monthly??

Salford Salford.... You did not give me the specific info I asked via email. I have madam's contact o, don't get it twisted. That Kitchen strike is looming. you will chop your poundo yam in powder (Wa je iyen e ni isu)

@Car shopping... Me wey don buy car, collect insurance quote before DriveTest. Iyen lo n pe ni "I must pass this test at once by faith."
I reached out to the instructor on a Saturday and told him we are going for testing on Thursday. (He did the booking becos I wasn't getting any date b4 19th.) He asked, have you driven in CDN before I said No. He said you can't pass this test. I looked him in the eye and said "I am passing" and we are going for it in 5 days. (That 19th was key becos car seller don dey disturb my voicemail say make I come commot the car from them showroom, and I said give me till 19th. They had said I cannot take delivery of the car becos I don't have a G).

After Day 1, instructor now had confidence in me that your driving is very good, You just need to learn the instructions. Come see MSB Rhythm. Me I changed it to MSTH = Mirror Signal Turn your Head

You know they said once examiner match brake for you, that is the end of testing. My examiner matched brake o. I said It was still orange so I could still go. I asked "have I failed the test" She said "Sir, please continue with the drive test" So test continue o. We got to carpark, did all the maneuvers, reverse packing, straight line parking.... When I hear that word congratulation, omo.... that was a solid nice birthday gift. Everyone had said they won't give you from G1 to G (Since you have never driven in Canada before). I kept rebuking allllllllllllllll of them say I must collect this thing. It was God jare.

Kwasi took four of us there. He picked me up at 4.15am in Brampton, We drove down to Toronto to pick the other 3 candidates before heading to test location. Omo... the place far die. 3 went for G, one went for G2. I was the only obote among the G testers. Other two don dey drive for Canada on G2. I passed, Jamaican Passed, but the other Nigerian lady did not make it.

Those instructors are making stupid money. 30 dollars per session and they can have like 5 sessions in a day. On drive test date, He took four of us there, that is 200*4 = 800 Dollars. cool cash. Nontaxable becos na cash transactions. The first day they told me I was going to pay 200 dollars for test date for him to take me there and use his car, I wanted to have a heart attack. 200 ginni for what? why wasn't I told before we started this whole thing?. I just said, I must not pay this 200 twice. Okay... continue with the process. I will bring you your money tomorrow.

I got a good deal on insurance as a member of HRPA.

Where is Maternal. I don miss my padi of life.

Ok. I see why it is soo expensive. You are in ON.
Everything there is so expensive.
I was referring to SK earlier. Ours is just $25 for knowledge test and $55 for road test.

Well done man

Romance / Yahoo Plus Plus - The New Spiritual Internet Fraud !! by mishooo(m): 1:38pm On Feb 24, 2017
I saw the below online and decided to share:


"I just feel like sharing this..... If any man have an ear, let him hear. Revelation 13:9.

"Too many times people make excuses for being wit som1 cos they are comfortable with who they're with; or cos they're tired of being single. I can vouch for it that soul ties are real.

"Dating & physical ties are much more than matter of the heart. They are matter of d soul & spirit.

"Last year December, I travelled to ....... met with some of my very old friends. Yea, they are looking real good, expensive cars, nice outfits, spending anyhow.

"Funny thing... they told me to meet them in one of the most expensive hotels. So we could talk better about life and all that. We were all happy to see each other. Sat down, we started gisting and one of them said...you can order for whatever you want.

"Food, wine, anything, & ti oba je omo germo lofe, won wa ni bi" owo okin shey problem" I actually didn't understand the omo germo part.

"After a while, I decided to leave, we exchanged contacts. One was my very close friend when in school. So I fixed another date with him.

"I was like, khay...you are lazy, your friends are big boys and you are here still hustling. I was a little bit down. Thank God for God. I'll like to tell you this, comparing yourself to others will only prevent you from happiness. Just work hard and trust God.

"I was so curious about what these guys do for a living. I don't have to be quiet, who knows, a great deal might come out. I said to myself....a better job offer or business. Well, I met with that my friend a day to Christmas I think.....

"I started asking him questions....life in general, family, what they all do for a living.We were close in schl, so I was very free with him. And then silence came....hmm, khay, what do you do in abuja, omo mummy ni e, o le lemi nkan ti an se( u're mums pet, u can't do wht they do)

"I was so scared. This kinda thing almost put me into trouble wen in schl. Sometimes If they tell u what they do, they might lure u into it. Well, to cut it short, he told me these guys are into yahoo plus plus plus. Can't even remember how many plus. *Deepsigh*

"Now...this is why I'm tweeting this. Not only for the ladies, guys too should be very careful these days PLEASE. He said their own plus isn't laptop. D logic is simple.They sleep wit girls to take their star/fortune & leave dem struggling all their lives.

"This is too deep. Too spiritual. Too bad. In a country, where you're still struggling even with your stars intact. *Deepsigh*

"No wonder the Bible says in Jeremiah 17:9 that the heart is deceitful above all things, AND DESPERATELY WICKED: who can know it? See, let me tell you this...the safest place to be is in God's hand. Honor God, obey His commandments. This is only for your good

"To make the matter worse, he said....as a guy if you sleep with such lady, they'll get your destiny too. So it goes like that. That's how their money generates. Khay, ma sho ra o ( khay be careful) he kept on repeating that. Well, after that I talked to him abt God.

"Ladies be careful of men you let into your heart and enter your body. Sex is not only physical exchange, it is also a spiritual exchange. Sexual soul ties bind you to a man, men his type and the dark spirits that follow him.

"If u adopt a sexually promiscuous lifestyle & connect with people sexually outside of marriage, u're not only disrespecting d will of God....you are spiritually and physically opening yoursef to spirits that mean you no good.

"Flee from sexual immorality. In many places, scriptures teaches that fornication is a MORTAL SIN. It may seem hard holding on to your body, but trust me, it's even harder getting off a soul tie.

"There are many ways to show love WITHOUT having sex. Don't be deceived. I pray for many more years of this celebration in good health, happiness and joy. May the Lord bless us all." (sic)

the priest will put the passport on the charcoal, use 9.5 liters of fuel to put in his car and pour the rest on your passport. When it is set aflame, ifa will see your heart and accept the burnt offering. he will now teleport u to the us. So basically, you have a 100%percent chance.

Please don't go for it as a graduate. The hustle is not soo worth it. Its demeaning and you need to see the list of all the complaints i kept hearing from Naijas that are doing security work in Dubai. They complained a lot and many of them told me they don't mind going back to Naija but the disgrace would be much and some have to recoup the cooperative society funds used to process their VISA, Flight et al.
Their stories were diverse and very pathetic. imagine 16 people living in one single room with no amenities and their salaries being deducted. I met and listened to almost 10 different security employees and from 3-4 different hotels and estates. so i know what i am talking about.

I suspect your friend is the one who scammed you.
Tracking and arresting scammers is very easy, what you have to do is call the police, give them their phone number or bank account and they will be caught in 6 days.
If your friend lives in America and claims the scammers took the money you sent, why didn't he report them
?
To be sincere, you friend don chop you
I buy cars for people and send them to Nigeria, i know how it works.
Physical inspection is required and you must not pay without seeing the car.
EBay is the only reliable auto dealer where you can pay without physically seeing the car and the car will be shipped to you.

Nahhhh! My friend is like a twin brother. Besides i mentioned that my proof (kind of receipt) is still on their website that i paid and they never for once denied it. In fact there was a time we called the Bank Of America in a 3-way call conference call to retrieve the money back saying we transferred in error but the Fraud Dept. operator told us its already more than a month and they would need to get in touch with the owners of the account.
He later called to say they declined to send the money back and he wasn't forth coming in giving us more info about them.
