Most parents desire to have one of their children around them in old age which may not be realistic most times.

In your own case there is nothing serious you are doing in Ibadan to warrant leaving and Ibadan is not really such a place to secure employment easily.

Why not strategies better and plan to leave when you secure employment at any location while doing the i/t training around your parents location.

Family › Re: I Just Made My First Million Naira. Wow! Advise Me by ogawisdom(m): 7:48pm On Jun 18, 2024
Congratulations

You have a million but not yet a millionaire grin

A millionaire is someone with assets that can produce millions. Eg you have 4 Keke on the road that produces millions for you yearly or house with tenants.

But I understand your feeling. If you are focused and good at investment you can hit 10m in few years time.

My definition of a millionaire is someone whose investments or businesses can generate at least 1m monthly whether he works or not, that is 12m per annum minimum.
Family › Re: Is 700k Per Month Too Small? by ogawisdom(m): 6:52pm On Jun 18, 2024
ruffhandu:
Hello people,
Please I need some advice.
We live in PH, and have 4 kids. The oldest is 10 while the youngest is 6. I give my wife 700k every month, and this includes general upkeep and maintenace and fuelling of our car (Lexus 330). I don't drive the car (I dey leg, while she uses it to run around, which includes school runs and her business).

I no dey chuk eye for her business. Bu I am getting frustrated as she still makes me believe that the money is not enough. I pay electricity bill (band A) and house rent (3m pa) yet every now and then she puts bills on my head. It is driving me crazy.

When I tell her to list out her expenses so I plan with her, she picks offence. I am really tired of the whole thing and don't know how else to approach the issue without causing too much problem. I know some men whose salaries are 250k-300k in PH, yet they are surviving.
Give her the money weekly like 150k weekly for better management. She is wasting it since you are giving it once as the big man that you are

Family › Re: How Do I Chase Away My Inlaws From My House by ogawisdom(m): 4:47pm On Jun 16, 2024
Wakatumbit:
My wife gave birth and her mom has been staying with us for the past 3 months, we have dedicated our baby already and my wife has even learnt to bath the baby and do things by herself when it comes to the baby.

I don't have an issue with the mom staying with us but ever since she came my wife's siblings has been coming to the house, her elder brother and sister and sometimes they stay up to a week.

With the two of them that makes us five in the house and feeding five people in this economy is not easy. I just looked at my bank statement this evening and in the last 2 weeks I've spent over 250k on expenses, from feeding to fuel, to baby food. If it's just me and my wife we won't be spending that much.


I'm thinking of telling my wife to tell her brother and sister to go leaving only they mom and they shouldn't be coming at all, they can visit but they shouldn't stay.

My family doesn't come around a lot and when they do visit, they don't even stay the night.

But I don't want to make it look like I'm a bad person, so how do I chase them away codedly
Make them uncomfortable and they will leave. Show attitude, be mute and unfriendly. Stop providing like before, show signs of lack and they will flee.

As long as you keep acting like dangote they will keep visiting at least to eat well grin

Don't on gen anytime they are around and keep a mean face.

This thing is not hard if you no be sisy

grin

Religion has damaged alot of Africans, all they do is pray and hope for miracle.

Humans control this world not God, God has left everything to us. He said be fruitful and dominate the world.

This can only happen via self development and working, taking actions and creative thinking.

We are god here on earth, BC God made us in his image.

I believe in God and prayers but it's mainly for heavenly matters.

The price of garri keeps increasing. A paint of garri is 4,000 naira.

Any cheap alternative to garri that one can use to eat soup?
Just learn to be satisfied with half cup, eat less so that a paint can last for you.
Investment › Re: Treasury Bills In Nigeria by ogawisdom(m): 5:09pm On May 31, 2024
Esthered:
Please I want to ask for advice on behalf of a friend with 4m.
1. He has invested in TBs earlier in the year. He isn't sure if he wants to invest in TBs again as he has no land asset.
2. He's contemplating buying a land in the outskirts of Lagos for capital appreciation.
3. He has a land in his hometown gifted by the dad that's undeveloped and was called by his uncle to build on it for the purpose of renting but has his reservation as the location is not a commercial area but town.
4. He's trying to discover himself for a business that he can do to earn a side hustle.
Kindly advise.
Let him do mutual fund for liquidity sake while searching patiently for a land of 2m and a business or investment of 2m for regular cash flow.

The money should be working while you are searching for the next thing to put it into.

Family › Re: My Wife Sleeps With My Boss by ogawisdom(m): 5:31pm On May 04, 2024
Iykegodslove:
Good day everyone!! I am emotionally shattered as I type this message. I have been suspecting my wife for years now but no concrete evidence to confront her.

There is a boss of my mine who happens to be our family friend. Each time he calls my wife, she deletes the call history immediately. This has been happening for years but I keep quite because i love my wife and my children so much.

Of recent, i decided to know what is happening by hacking her call with him. Lo and behold, they are into deep relationship that my wife calls him baby. Infact, sleep has gone out of my eyes and am thinking of how to deal with the situation.

It should be noted that i am not working under the man in question only that we are church members and he has rendered countless of help to me. I am wondering what puts my wife into this mess. I am graduate but i decided not to work for anybody but to focus on my farming. I am doing well financially bcs i can boost of 500k or more every month. We are not lacking anything at all.

Please house ignore my typo and help with good advice.

Note: i dnt want to divorce my wife and am ready to forgive her bcs she has been of great help to my success and moreover, i love my family very well. What should i do to stop them?
grin grin just pray for her to change SIMP

You don't want to divorce her but what if she wants to divorce you nko. A SIMP will never be attractive to a woman.

Like I said go into dry fasting n prayers.

For the people clapping hands, 35% increase on 33,000 current minimum wage is 11,550 which translates to 44,550 new minimum wage.

This is more than wickedness
Use 25% for your calculation since that is what low end workers will receive.

FunnyDude:
$500 cheap in Nigeria?
Parents are earning and spending dollars in Nigeria?
Is Nigeria UK?
How much is the minimum wage?
Same parents are earning naira in Nigeria and paying 20k USD in UK .

School needs funding to maintain high standards. If 500k is too much the individual should consider other options like college of education, Polytechnic or stop at secondary school.

Government should only subsidise primary and secondary education since it's a minimum requirement for life.

University education comes at a cost and I consider 500k too cheap.
Education › Re: University Of Ibadan Students Lament 450–750% Fee Hike by ogawisdom(m): 7:17pm On Apr 17, 2024
Still very cheap below 500 USD as School fees in 2024 but you people will gladly go to UK and pay 20k USD per session.
