God Bless your hustle man! Just stay focused and believe me we shall one day share in your success story.

Thank you bro. We don't have any option than to succeed. That's the anthem I sing to myself everyday. Bless *pray hands*

Interesting topic I must say. Too bad I just came across this now.

Well, right from my childhood, I started hustling, indeed I am the son of my father who also started hustling right from his days in junior secondary school. I started looking for a job the same week I finished my Waec/Neck exams. I worked for about 3 years before my dad put a stop to it and made me instead focus my mind on school. I did as ordered and first got admission into a polytechnic but I didn't want a polytechnic, neither did my parents, so after three years I transferred to a federal university. I spent (probably wasted 7 years in school). I said wasted because all what I learnt academically came from YouTube video tutorials, nothing meaningful came from school except social life exposure and few business opportunities plus the frustration from lecturers that won't give you your deserved score unless your 'sort' them. It made me believe not every 2-1 or 2-2 graduate really deserved it.

While waiting for service, I was staying with a relation living in the neighbouring state of my school. I was doing little jobs like house painting, graphics design (I am quite good with Photoshop, again thanks to YouTube and good vision for designs and colours), I also did few programming assignment/projects( also learnt web designs and programming on YouTube) and typing projects for students.

My relation told me to help her get a good power bank, so I contacted my brother who
has a shop at Alaba in Lagos, he sent me few second hand power banks that were imported from Malaysia/Indonesia, I also buy online. I would do a little magic and construct a very good 15000mAh power bank(not all these fake ones we see everywhere). She could charge her phone up to 3-4 times before the power bank goes low. She was so happy she told me to get more for her colleagues and her husband. Each second hand power bank cost N500, but I charged 5-7k for each making more than 200% profit. My cousin spread the news and also I used WhatsApp app to advertise and that was how I started selling power banks, memory cards from my room. Mind you, some power banks were totally faulty from battery to the PCB , so that counts as a loss. Some had only bad boards, so I'll mix about six originally batteries with a good PCB and it with will give 15600mAh for real, but it was a gamble I didn't mind. Then I delved a little into printing to add to my little power bank hustle. I print/customize Tshirts and football jerseys. I am about to go for service so I'm a little bit of dilemma right now.

It is not easy at all to survive in Nigeria. I remember when business wasn't really moving, my sister just gave me 10k, I used it all to buy memory cards from eBay and sold them. My parents are quite comfortable, they can always provide for me but right from childhood, I like being on my own, I don't like depending on people.
Though I don't have a shop to display my goods for better patronizing but as soon as I am done with service, I'll face my business (Web development, painting. power bank and memory card mini-importation and shirt printing) full time. Yup, I am jack of all trade......kinda.

Blessings to all those legitimate hustlers out there, may your river never run dry and for those shady hustlers out there, please turn around, it's never too late and earn legitimately. it may be slow but at least it will be worthwhile in the end.

I sell original second-hand power banks and customize clothes as well

Qadaffi2idiamin:
There is no receipt to prove this claim, no evidence. What you think you have as evidence is not enough, please move on. You made the mistake.

Oga, there's more than enough evidence if the said guy(soldier) is caught.

1.)The agent funded the soldier's account, so there is history of funding transaction. in both the agent's computer and also the soldier's account.

2.)There's also history of games played for such amount on that particular day the soldier placed the bets. Bet9ja app has history of all games booked and amount staked.
Only if the soldier claims he has paid the agent, but then he can't claim to have paid the agent because he has already denied knowing or having any transaction with the bet agent.

A friend of mine few years ago won some money but unfortunately he washed his trouser with the bet slip inside. The agent refused to pay my friend, claiming there's no slip, so no payment. Fortunately for my friend, the date,time and some part of the bet slip code was still visible, so we requested to see the list of games won on that particular date. The agent refused to oblige,so we threatened to involve the vigilante, that was when he agreed to show us, and we saw the bet slip my friend placed and my friend collected his money.

There's always paper trail when it comes to betting sites

Kalixx:
Money and connection indeed rule!

If it was a regular hustler who kept a young lady in his house, sleeping with her, and all that... the parents of this guy would have come for the head of this guy.

But oh, there's money,it just makes every wrong right.

See how they're smiling. Lol.

100% spot on,bro. He even has two kids on the side out of wedlock, yet the girl's parents still accepted. Imagine if it were to be a struggling guy. Indeed rules/laws are only applied to work on the poor/middle-class in Nigeria

Liliyann:
It kinda turns dem on
God forgive me but I have done it before

You are asking for forgiveness yet you are smiling/laughing at your comment. Shows you don't even regret doing it. If you and the chance to do it again over and over, I know you will. Stop deceiving yourself

What a foolish man. The lady should have reacted like Nikita, give am 2 for face upfront before questioning him.

My woman knows I love grabbing her behind but I got so used to it to that I forgot myself on a particular day. I saw a colleague of mine for the first time after many months, so she ran towards me and hugged me, I forgot myself(thinking it's my woman), na so I just grab and squeezed her äss. She pushed me away and was in shock, I quickly apologised.....and kept on apologizing and explainingmyself. She kept it cool but she still dey use one eye look me till date. It wasn't funny that day

I can see a corpse's hat. Damn! after all the hustle and bustle. Na here the person journey end.....I hope not. Indeed, we are born to die. I feel so...so....

I attended my dad's step brother's wedding, all they played throughout the ceremony were boring gospel songs all in the name of not wanting any worldly songs because he is an Evangelist. It was fvcking boring to the core. Aren't there any good or lively gospel songs to play or even wedding songs like PSquare's "No one like you", Eldee's " Today", Sunny Nneji's "Oruka", Timi Dakolo's " Iyawo mi" and so many more.
I wonder if love songs on your wedding day is considered a sin. Omo, some people just carry 'born again' for head.

Los Zetas, chai! That cartel is from the pit of hell. Their members don't have souls. I haven seen a couple of their videos on how they kill their rival gangs or snitches. They like using chainsaw to cut their victims.

Latino Cartel members are the bloodiest . Do not F with 'em.

I didn't even need to click on the topic before knowing it's RS Belgrade. I know what Serbs can do, their history as well.

This RS Belgrade na still the same team wey chop two wonderful free kicks from Neymar last season. I wish them luck....because hell yeah, they'll need every luck they can find to survive that group stage

Guy, of what importance is speaking or understanding English language and achievement in football ? Great football legends like Pele,Maradona, Paulo Maldini, Zinedine Zidane,Ronaldo Delima, Ronaldinho, Iniesta, Xavi, Rivaldo, Figo, e.tc don't understand English, but still succeeded in their careers. English is of no use to Messi, so u may keep ur opinion to urself.

Did I ever say without English one can't be a great footballer? I just made you realise and understand that not playing in Britain or any English-speaking country doesn't suggest one shouldn't understand or learn a language. Just like the way you tried to make the person you quoted understand.

Your problem is that you either lack comprehension or you feel you are bigger than being corrected or enlightened. Which ever one it is abeg pack your wahala dey go. Work on yourself

The difference between Dîick and Prick is......but the Oga kpatakpata of them all is Gbola!

I so like this dude. The guy go use laughter kill the wife. Just add humour and sarcasm (those that are naturally gifted in this) any lady will fall for you, even if you don't have money but when her eyes clear, your jokes will no longer be funny

Amozever12:
Has Messi ever played outside Spain Guess u are new here

Dude, it is not about playing outside the shores of Spain but it boils down to the interest in learning the language. Ricardo Kaka never played in Britain but speaks English fluently, same as Toni Kroos, Maurice Köeman, Pep Guardiola, Jüergen Klop(before they came to England), in fact Klop's accent is very good it is hard to tell if it is German or American accent. Most Dutch and German players speak good English because they have English as a major language course in their respective countries.

Where's my darling Manchester United....oh snap! They bottled it the previous season. Lemme wait for Europa league draw

karo93:
Its not that deep most times...

A girl knows in less than 15mins of meeting you if you are the kind of guy she wants to be romantically (not necessarily sexual) involved with...it doesnt take too long to know if he checks most boxes


The friendzone is for 2nd choice guys......the kinda guy she isnt originally interested in......but can be a backup plan, or if she's hasnt found her real type after 6months.....or the one she later decides to sha manage maybe out of pity or something......these are the ones that spend eternity trying to win her heart

If a girl that many guys are chasing just accepts a new guy s proposal quickly, it just means she rilly liked him.......the ones in the friendzone are the 2nd class/2nd choice.

Human beings don't treat people they really want roughly for fear of loosing them

A thousand LIKES at the bolded. A girl I once dated back in my uni days had guys with money and cars queuing and begging to date her. First time we met and spoke, I just took her away from my thought because I felt she's got millions of guys chasing her and me, I can't woo a girl a lot of guys are chasing, not because of my esteem but it's just who I am. I didn't know that within the first few minutes of our interaction, she had already fallen for me.

Funny enough, I didn't really woo her. I just made her know I liked and cared about her then we hit it off in a space of two months. I wouldn't wanna go deep but it was an awesome experience knowing a woman loves and worships you for real and would do anything to keep you.

Most of then don't know the level of what they got into until it's too late to turn back.

I went to a shop to get something and while waiting for my balance from the shop owner, I heard a group of kids discussing using slangs....one was like "Aro, men that do things are ado, but men that don't are adont....wida your cappings via......where were you....blah blah blah". I looked at him and shook my head repeatedly. This kids aren't even up to 13years. I was thinking, where are the parents of these kids, do they know their kids have probably cut off 40% of their life. It's one thing to have a child, now it's another not to have a useless one that will bring you only shame and pains

Chai! Did the dude do a tag team with Mike Tyson and Anthony Joshua? This is bad mehn but it's very rare for a man to just beat a woman this bad.

I remember the day one of my ex slapped me. Mehn, as I no beat am silly that day, I knew I can overcome any thing coming from a woman. I asked her why she did it and she couldn't utter a word. I told her straight that it should never happen again else I go beat am silly, if she likes let her call her brothers and uncles, me sef brothers and friends.
Most women have gotten too comfortable with this "real men don't raise their hands on a woman" thing that they believe they can do anything/misbehave and get away with it.

I am not supporting this form of violence but some people just need to be know their place and sometimes, you use force to do it

Topmaike007:
imagine I was unable to use it Netflix payment

Too bad. Is your card Visa or Verve? The customer care agent told me the Visa card usually support online shopping. So I'm guessing he meant only shopping on e-comm sites

Topmaike007:
bro which debit card are you using to the ordering... Access bank have refuse to give out card that does international transactions

Are you serious? I collected mine about two weeks ago and I have already purchased some goods on Aliexpress. In fact, I purchased some goods that same day I collected my Access debit card. Unless if something is wrong with your account

Right from time, most male fashion designers or guys that are seriously into fashion are gay. Just with one glance, you can see it written all over their face....but the one wey pain me na Tom Ford; I was like "at least there is one straight person with this James Bond look". Only for me to read he's also gay. WTF I just weak

jmaxjohn:
i was bout to say 'wow this guy is good', until i found out you just took. /////// image and edited.

Bro, he is a web designer/developer not a graphics designer. Truth be told, most of our inspirations or ideas as a graphic designer comes from other people's work. Take it easy on him, It's just an image not a copied website. Cheers

The only problem I have is with the person who recorded this. To be sincere, as a couple, married or not, it is fun to explore outside your bedroom. Do freakish or risky things to thrill and spice up your relationship more.

If given the chance, I'd do same on that plane but in a low key manner. You people think marriage is all about coming together to make kids, grow old, and then your kids will take care of you...then you die. Me I love adventures a lot....I don't want to go into details about my own experience

What you on about chief?

What exactly don't you get, guvnor? BBB-->Beauty, B**bies, B**ty, and last B is for Brains. Cheers, mate

I have no problem with her celebration here. But WTF is that comment about God putting her enemies to shame. So, God supports BBN, is that it? Another dumb comment was even saying God of eleventh hour This is why I don't like Christianity in Nigeria

djoe21:
You are a very intelligent person.

Hahahaha! I see what you did there! But truly, the babe dense sha

Onyi22:
Is English their language? How many award have u won with ur correct English?

Nne, this is quite a shameful comment coming from you. Is English not the official language of Nigeria? Is English not the middle-man's language for communication in this country. For heaven's sake, the OP is a darn blogger and you are passing this statement as an excuse for his bloopers.

The dude made a statement concerning his observations which in fact is true, yet this is the kind of defence you are putting up for the so-called blogger. How can a 'blogger' post such with so many blunders scattered all over like shrapnel yet you are still defending him. Truly, it is quite appalling

While somewhere, someone is killing himself over Juliet. This is to show BBB without B =O(zilch). BBB will attract a man, if the last B is missing.....forget it. Ask Amber Rose

The only time I used PMT was when I was heading to Enugu from Nsukka to go see my cousin in UNN after my post utme

GIGM is good but darn expensive. I love their customer service as well. I am not a fan of 'small' buses because I am tall and these 'small' buses are usually inconvenient. I use either Chisco or ABC.

I have never heard any good news from people who used PMT. I guess they have also lost a customer, because I'd never use them.

For heaven's sake,stop quoting the whole post, please!!! Today is Monday for crying out loud. How can someone just comfortably quote such a long post. You get conscience at all

I'd do me Lexus 330 any day. That car is old but still feels good when you on steering.

I can't really tell if juju is real because I am yet to have any experience of it but back then in school, a guy in my lodge stole a phone. The owner of the stolen phone went to a native doctor, he was told the thief will return the phone the following day but he shouldn't harm the thief, he should just let the thief go.
The following day, the thief came back with the phone. While confessing, he said that he decided not to sell the phone any more.

I don't know if that's juju at worked or just a thief with a conscience

Sometimes, I wonder if it is a crime to hustle legit. These people make it look like 'stealing' is the only way, and if you refuse to go down that path, you dey dull, nobody will respect you. Even elders of nowadays worship whoever has the 'biggest' money, forgetting how our tradition works.

C'mon mehn, are you trying to tell me it is bitcoin that gave him all these?

Now this so-called Op or wannabe-blogger. Quit blogging please. Your write-up gives another type of migraine. See as you use blunder finish everywhere because you wan blog
