Anuoluwapo23:
Its nice to write again and I'm really excited to share this story of mine to every Nairalander so i would be needing your help(mods) also to reach more people on this interesting tips of mine..

I'll be giving out just 3 tips,I was in a bus today and I was thinking about my life and giving thanks to God and how I could have saved over 500k in my twenties even without supports from my parents or family,we arent really financially stable so i just had to source funds for myself and all sorts by myself.


1.Socialize and Make Friends:Some people call themselves introverts but I think this is a very bad thing because it would really affect your standard of living even if you're the richest in this world because you would need someone's help to get rich or get high in life,you know you can't do this alone,just socialize,make friends,let your friends help you,let them pay for your food,let them pay for your drinks,let your rich colleague pay for your lunch, it might look like begging or some sorts but because you know where you came from,don't be shy to ask people to help you,don't be shy to talk to anyone thats helpful,it might be your lucky day.


2.Tell people your problem;In 2009 I remember when I needed a job so bad that I told a friend of mine about my difficulties,but my friend that I told had another friend,she told her friend about my issues,I should be angry but I wasn't because I didn't expect her to tell someone I don't know about myself,and I didn't request her "uncalled for BC",but I I don't know who's who,so I kept my cool,and few weeks later her friend got me a job which was actually my dream job in an accounting firm and its a very good one,when I got the job,first week,my boss liked me so much just because I was the open minded type,I do not hide my problems from people,he always pay for my lunch and drops me at the busstop of my area and it went on and on that my salary was really enough because I don't even remove up to 10k out of it in month,isn't it cool?



3.Be A Giver ;What do I actually mean by this?its not just about giving and not expecting a return on investment,its about giving and expecting nothing to come out of it,not even 5N.
Earlier this year,my aunt had her wedding ceremony and we were all excited and all sorts,some people just came and said they haven't eaten but I don't know them,and they were my aunt's guest but they had gone home for verification so I just overlooked it,although I should be angry because even me I hadn't eaten for the day so it should be annoying that someone came "after party" for God!Nobody really does that but these men did it for real,and I gave them my food that I had reserved for myself, (they were two) so they ate my one plate until earlier this month,I saw one of them in Abeokuta at a store where i was trying to decide on which blender to purchase from the 3chub store somewhere in panseke,and what they had that day was a syinix blender and the man didn't just purchase the blender though, he also bought me a huaweii device because I said I had non at the moment although I had non,I got robbed in my street by 9pm(May God Help Us In Nigeria) so they snatched my bag which had (a boom j8,a vodafone tab,my makeup kit,my shawarma,8k,and my devices charger and different stuffs " but I'm grateful to God that I wasn't even stabbed.So it just happened that way..


That scenario is really funny but that's how to stay rich,Thats how I stay rich even when I have a very low income,I hope we all make use of these beautiful steps of mine, I didn't even read them from a book,Its my idea,please read and share and like.
On point, but on number 3, the man bought it for you because you are girl. Tell us if he didn't ask for your phone number

Car TalkWays To Save Money On Fuel In Nigeria by nickxtra(op): 10:00am On Jun 10, 2016
No doubt, fuel prices in Nigeria have steadily been climbing since the introduction of automobile vehicles, however, with the current increment to a national average of NGN 145 per litre, the fuel scarcity is on another level and there is a need to find ways to save money.
Despite the ongoing kobo-pinching trend, you cannot stop driving: you depend on your vehicle to get to work, pick up the kids, and maybe attend those mandatory anger management classes. This means you have to change a few bad habits and increase your personal fuel efficiency in order to save money at the pump. Here are six simple ways to save money on fuel, making things easier on your pocketbook as well as the environment.
1. Drive sensibly With the situation of the country at the moment, the fuel economy is directly proportionate to how hard you accelerate and how steady you are on the gas pedal. Try not to drive too aggressively or too carelessly, and also, observe speed limits. Driving aggressively can lower gas mileage on the highway and aside from that, it can attract law enforcement agents and you will have to waste fuel while trying to explain your way out of their grip. Again, while each vehicle reaches its optimal fuel economy at a different speed, it is important that you try not to drive above 50 mph as with almost every vehicle, gas mileage usually decreases rapidly at speeds above 50 mph.
2. Only carry light load Another easy way to improve your car’s fuel efficiency and save yourself some extra bucks is to make the load on the vehicle as light as possible. Basically, the less you pack, the lighter your load, the more you save! Loaded roof racks and other exterior means of storage negatively impact your gas gauge by up to five percent. So, if you have junk in the trunk it may be time to clean out the car and take out whatever you don’t need. Believe it or not, your car needs more fuel to move around more weight.
3. Use the AC Efficiently The weather condition in the country is generally hot and with the added noise/air pollution in some busy areas, as well as the stop-and-go traffic, it is just convenient to run your car’s air conditioner all through the day. The Society of Automotive Engineers , however, conducted several tests which determined that you lose up to 10% more fuel driving with the AC on and your windows up, therefore, it may be best to think of alternative ways to stay cool this season as cranking up the AC will put a dent in your fuel budget. If you cannot roll down the windows and let in natural breeze complement your driving, go ahead and use the AC, however, ensure you turn it off when it’s not hot. You can also drive during the cooler parts of the day to cut out the need for the AC.
4. Do not ‘warm up the car’ Nigerians love to warm up their car! Agreed, at one time, engines needed to sit idle for five to ten minutes before they could be trusted to offer reliable transportation but gone are those days. The way car engines are fashioned today, you can now just turn the key, put it in drive, and drive out, despite the weather condition. Warming your car up for as little as two minutes consumes as much fuel as you would use driving a mile. Not warming up your car ensures that you save the money on the fuel that would be wasted doing so.
5. Look out for filling stations with accurate meters
This is a big issue with filling stations in Nigeria. While the government has given sanctions and implemented strategies to combat this issue, there is a lot of station guilty of the charge. Most of the pumps and meters are doctored to ensure that what you are buying for the price of 1 Litre is way less than 1 Litre, even though the Metre reads 1 Litre. Put your ear to the ground and find out the different areas around your location with accurate pumps and go there, that way you do not have pay any more than you should.
6. Avoid excess idling
There is no room for undue gallivanting with your car anymore or letting it sit idle for periods of time .You need to make a plan on where you are going to, research the shortest cut to take and get your act together before you set out (especially if you are going out with a group). If you are going shopping, trying running through your checklist before you turn on the engine and if you must take a call or sit in your car for more than a few minutes, it is more fuel efficient to park in one corner, turn your car off, and then restart it when you are good to go. Allowing your car to sit idle for some time ensure you waste fuel money.

Unless you want to get your baby drunk when you breastfeed, and your baby could get alcohol poisoning from mother's milk if you take alcohol. Avoid alcohol and other forms of drunks until you stop breastfeeding, so that it doesn't affect your babies growth and development.

FamilyHow Safe Is Dry Gin(alcohol) To A Nursing/breasting Mother Of A Week's Old Baby? by nickxtra(op): 2:01pm On Jun 06, 2016
My wife put to bed just a week ago. Although, she is not an alcohol freak, but she is asking me to get her alcoholic gin, particularly 'seaman aromatic' or any related hot gin. Her argument is that it was recommended or advised by a nurse that it is really not harmful if she takes it and that it is good for her tummy, i.e reducing the fats in the tummy. I have advised her that, it is not good for a nursing and breast feeding mother to take certain foods, including alcohol as that may be passed out to the baby via breastfeeding. Experience mothers, Doctors and Nurses, your advice and views are kindly required, to enable me place a superior argument before her.
