Does anyone know good and genuine BDC that can help me convert my naira to dollar. I am out of Nigeria, I have a dorm account with GTB and I would like to send some naira from my Naija account to the BDC so that they can credit my dorm account with the USD equivalent. Thanks

sounds a bit long winded. I transferred from my HSBC account directly into a domicillary account. they deducted 29 pounds but I didnt mind

AfonjaBoston:
Lol i come here to "remember naija" and laugh my butt off ans people like you make that happen.
Life is not too serious. Enjoy it or you will be sorry.

You have a terrible way of "remembering " things. Of all the things you can be,be kind.
You are where people want to be, I really dont understand why you feel a need to make people feel less about themselves. you must be a deeply unhappy person.
I dont mean this in an unkind way but have you considered therapy at all? I can recommend a good one even if you havent got insurance

Gurus in the house I will be going for an interview on Thursday at Abuja for base on b1 b2 visa for conference I will like to know the type of questions to expect and how to answer them I will appreciate if someone help

Hi You may want to search transcripts on this thread and read through. I do not always agree with them though. I ll recommend cramming your DS 160. Packaging your ties and having money in the bank.

Conferences do not appear to hold water anymore. Would you like to change this to a vacation? I do wish you Luck

[color=#990000][/color] Merry Christmas and God bless us Everyone!

please post pictures of xmas chicken as some of us are at work. Tankio

I would probably kill for some kilishi/suya at this moment.
Did you get any?�
I had some suya in Birmingham which I hated. I want more authentic suya.

For my friend, I m sorry I got on your wrong side by mentioning your visa fees. please enjoy it and forgive me. Cheers

The bashing was rather rude and entirely unnecessary. You could have been kinder. Wouldn't have cost you any. The first 2 responders answered his query nicely. You then leapt in with assumptions .

It set my teeth on edge,I tell you. I like this thread because we are so polite to each other.i would like to keep it that way.

In other news,did I just read 13 million for a visa application? that is extortionate. the good thing is that it keeps you focused on squeezing every last benefit out of the system. Pele,you hear. it is well

Aphrodite007:
Sigh, our compulsive need to lie though. No wonder countries are closing their borders to us.

I m not quite happy with the tone of this reply. I preferred the first two replies. Lying is not an exclusive preserve of Nigerians. Babies start to lie before they can talk.
Poster only wanted to know whether there are any advantages to adding an extra passport number when applying.

I cant help though poster. I dont think it ll reduce the cost of the visa so just answer no and jump and pass. Tier 2 visa are usually walk overs anyway as they need your tax to finance f***ing brexit

mehn i am just tired of her. her complain is that she is not on sit and cannot respond to my mail or inquiry. i am so busy at work and i felt since i have an acc officer, i should be able to send mail and direct her to buy tb for me. I Have battle stanbic on twitter because of this, maybe i have to tag CBN. worst is that she wont even pick calls

Email her branch manager if you want to do what I would do.
1500$ for a book? no way. you could buy a used copy or try for a kindle or pdf version. Invest the change in tb.

Not everyone here lives in Nigeria,you know

I think I just lost 2 points off my IQ from this unbelievably childish exchange of words.

Wetin de pain me na say the yab sef no make sense at all. The last time I heard this was in primary school,I kid you not. Mtchew

#i am very angry at all this.

Abeg wey all the great minds here? Let's discuss business and leave these children alone.

Reading posts here changed my mind about investing in property patapata. I no do. I ll get a mortgage instead.

Also,reading about bitcoin makes my heart bleed. I downloaded remitano. still have no idea how to buy the actual bitcoin. My bank has been enjoying my cash for 2 weeks now.

Bikonu I need help

Unbelievable! If you want to have a fight, make it witty and interesting not the infantile crap I just read.

Tissue paper,what the heck is wrong with you?
Jobac,you again? Why always you?

Tick no, and get an appointment with OH.

Whatever you do tick, you will have a blood test to check the level of antibodies to all the above.

I apparently have had German measles in the past.

Kirchhoff01:

could you explain your use of the laughing emoji?
How dare you?!

My dear poster,at the moment,the minimum for bills is 100k. However,you can invest this in mutual money market until it's up to 100 thousand.

Please,dont mind this kirchoff or ketchup

Wow,I am seriously impressed.

Glasgow used to be stab capital of Europe until the late noughties, when they adopted a different approach and reduced it considerable.
London's stabbing is just off the chain, even with tougher sentence- perhaps they just feel these kids in ganags are mainly killing themselves..

really? what did they do?I m very interested...

chigo4u:
Interesting figures, US is really something else with the money. UK is overrated to me lol

The uk is a tiny little island. I really dont know how they even managed to go into the g7. The English channel probably had a lot to do with that.

The us is nearly a full continent.

HeliosHay:
I tend to look at the below factors

1. Interest rate - If the interbank lending rate goes up..TB rates might follow suit

2. Inflation - In inflationary environments, investors are forced to reach for greater yield to compensate for diminished purchasing power in the future.

3. Crude Oil price - If price declines, the government has less FX income and so it has to source more money (than usual) for capital expenditure by issuing TB at a higher rate

There could be other factors to be aware of...these are the ones i know. I just keep an eye on them..how they move will help inform the direction of TB rates (up or down)

I had to take a screenshot of this. in other words,forget t for now

bendo75:
Hello brother, I really appreciate you a lot. I did not know anything about NTB until I found this sub. Before then, I was just doing fixed deposit. Like I said earlier no need to reveal anything here but I want you to know that financially you have liberated so many folks with this sub myself included. That’s why I want us to keep your spirit alive here for our younger generation.

Again few years ago you mentioned crypto currency on this sub some of us dismissed you and called crypto a scam. You were not going to give up because you actually started a thread on Bitcoin. I followed you and started buying BTC, ETH and few other alts. I use Binance and Coinbase but I store them in hard wallets. I have seen the lows and the highs of crypto. I am a hodlor but when BTC or ETH pamps, I sell and put the gain into NTB.

Thank you again for spreading your knowledge and for empowering so many of us. In 2012 you had a vision to financially empower young Nigerians and I can say you have succeeded. English philosopher Francis Bacon said ‘Knowledge is power’. In appreciation and in your honor , I would like to make a small donation in ETH to a charity that you support. I would appreciate if send me your ETH addresss. God bless.

Is anyone cutting onion at the moment?

*crickets*

Thriveagric :Its not clear how they intend to insure your capital. Leadway insurance,their insurers,will also not divulge any information.

I m outchea.

Mr Olujaidi,Thank you for your contribution after 2 pages of mindbendingly boring ,unbelievably childish talk.

Now if you are new on this thread,We talk treasury Bill's and other investments in a respectful manner. I have never heard name calling here until a couple weeks ago .

For this reason,we do not discuss tribes,religion or politics on this thread.

Treasury bill rates are quite low at the moment. I m thinking of investing in Thriveagric or Farmcrowdy? What do y'all think?

Has anybody used thriveagric and farmcrowdy before?

reservd:
Una just dey derail this tread, tomorrow una go tell one newbie to read the last 10 pages, is this what he/she will be reading to learn and understand tbills? We easily lose focus these days, any small thing, we don digress

I dont even understand these days....everytime we will be gisting gist that ll not make us any money. me I just read and ignore. e be like say mods no send us again. I ll soon start my own thread sef

I'm a serving corps member and over the last few months, i was able to save 1.7m from freelancing. Now,The bad side is i'm super lazy to work, each time i remember i have 1.7m in my account, the spirit to work dies off.

I'd like to channel about 1.5m into TB, probably this will make me more serious.

What is the best bank for TB for 180 tenor?

What should i look out for and also what to avoid?

Thanks

Change your friends sir.

I m sure none of them have up to 17 thousand naira. that's why 1.7 million is demotivating you. People make that in a month. Or you think serving means you are young? people make their first million before service sef.

Better wake up

Another thing, would you be interested in Canada? You sound like you d be a shoo in for pr in Canada.

If you can afford uk school fees

My dear Poster, Take all the advice here. Na the people wey sabi be this.

Maybe look at the exceptional talent visa path? I m glancing at it myself,truth be told. I m an exceptional lazybones...�

popplm:
Greetings to everyone, I have been following this thread and gained a lot from the experience of fellow nairalanders. I am planning to secure a tier 4 student Visa for the next year september 2020 admission and planning to move with my 4 dependants (3 sons of 3,7,10 years and my wife) but I don't want to travel at the same time with them them to sort accommodation and other stuff before they finally join after 2 months

My question: can I apply for their Visa at the same time with mine and if yes, can the Visa still be active 3 months after it's issued?

Thanks.

I stand to be corrected but your tier 4 visa ll come with a proviso that you enter the uk within 1 month of issuance . You can extend it but it ll involve some letter writing.

Why not do yours first and apply for theirs later?

this is probably none of my business and I m sure you have considered the hell out of your decision but my living expenses as as a single,bus riding, doesnt eat a lot and non partying immigrant is 1k minimum.

Have you got a plan for your monthly expenses
