If possible to reverse time. Two friends of mine work in the same company in year 2009 and both were given each #100k as the end of the year appraisal bonus.
One use the money to buy land in remote area in Ibadan, while the other used his money to buy BlackBerry bold.
The guy that used his money to buy land said the land has appreciated to 4million early this year while the guy with with BlackBerry can not even remember the phone again (this is a true life story). Pls learn to invest your money in property or your family, parent etc.
Your pri*k can not be big as head of a baby and baby will surely pass the vagi*a. Don't kill yourself on pus*y. Plan your life. Dangote want to be more richer, the rich doesn't spend anyhow. They keep investing. Buying phone of almost half a million to 20 year old lady is senseless.
FamilyRe: My 85-Year-Old Dad Is Cheating On My Mom by okewumi: 1:32pm On Oct 28, 2021
purples25:
Generally, why treat old people like they are already in their graves? We kinda like to see them as corpses that don't have any sexual urge, or need to relate. I think people are silly anyway. Any small thing makes them discriminate. A man grows old, means he shouldn't socialize, means he can't have sex or wear some kinda clothes, means he shouldn't be loud, prosperous and proud.

When you take away the right to live happily from that old woman or man, then you get surprised when they start abusing minors. It's not an excuse, but look at the inhumane way you categorize them. An old man of 85 shouldn't have sexual urge or sex, who gave you the right to decide that, young pup? You think you too will not get old? Because your blood is rushing fresh, you are arrogant, you think you know how grandpa feels in his loins. In fact, I won't insult you.

After condemning the old men and women to the shadows, you get surprised when 85 is caught raping 6 years. Now baba wants to do normally, its not acceptable because he's old. Mentioning his age again and again like he was supposed to become an angel Cuz he got old. That's exactly the reason he does it! You make him feel like he can't be a man with independent actions because he's old.

Not supporting what he's doing though. But you are treating him like a corpse or a baby. Honestly why should I care, because, as a woman, I see ladies of 30 to 40, not even 50, being treated like they are 93 or halfway in their graves already. There is no difference between how a 30 year old and a 95 year old woman are treated. If you are a 30year old woman, you should just call yourself grandma and dig your grave and hide inside. That's how people act. Meanwhile a man of the sane age is still a 'young vibrant man'. Its stupid.d to be honest.

So I shouldn't have spoken up concerning this man. But I have. You can talk to him about it, like you would cautiously do if he was young. Don't think you can use his age to sabotage him. Talk to him with the same fear and respect. And let him make his independent decision. He is a man still. Not your old dying dog who you can reduce rations of food for and control through such.

Nevertheless, what he is doing is wrong.
My formal landlord was 83 years and the man still they fire. The children organise a young widow of 47 to they cruise together codedly for him. I don't know where it is stated that everybody progesterone should not work at that age.

CareerRe: Share Your Experience While Working Under An Elite Person. by okewumi: 7:46am On Oct 12, 2021
HBB1:
You have only been working with horrible people

End of story!

P.S: there are wonderful wealthy people the world over.
[color=#990000][/color]


They are not horrible at all.

You just need to negotiate well before working with them. You can work with an average company over years to add value to yourself and be a professional. Immediately you are for an interview to work with them, negotiate properly and package yourself well. If they want you, they are ready to employ u. You must value your off-time period into negotiations
My boss can call you middle of the night to get job update (time difference of USA to Nigeria)

Most of them are very hardworking and doesn't joke with relaxation. Their schedule may be tight but they don't joke with vacation.

They don't eat anyhow. A poor man can eat five EBA with one meat, but the rich will eat snail and vegetable to be healthy.

There are good ones, example is a man who is presently a state governor in southwest. His name start with M. Before he became governor, he is a philanthropist, a cheerful giver. He will buy children cloths from USA and ask staff to share and give to their children. His drivers usually fight each other with hr so that they can drive him. He will ensure you buy a land. For instance, he can ask you where is your land, if you are stammering that you have #200k and the land is #500k. He will write check of #300k for you so that you can buy and assist you while you are building it.
He send workers for training irrespective of your tribe. Let me stop there.

The button line is, negotiate well during interview, don't expect any cheap money because they are rich and plan your life. Even in free town, nothing is free. always be honest


You will learn from them. I think l av learn a lot from their way of life
CareerRe: Share Your Experience While Working Under An Elite Person. by okewumi: 10:19pm On Oct 11, 2021
Hmmm.
I have worked with two and l learnt a lot of lesson. The man stays two weeks in Nigeria (best hotel in Lagos) and two weeks in USA.
1. They value their time. They believe time is money. The man prefers you take uber to a treckable distance to save time.
2. They value their tools, car anything than you. They will tell you how they bought a spoon/spanner in Canada and if you don't handle it well, they can sack you. They believe there are thousands of you outside than the stress the will undergo to get things you misplace.
3. They are very stingy. They don't see you that you can have any help to render for them financially. Nollywood is nonsense to them. They can send you an errand and expect change of #50
4. If you are very good and diligent, they will use you and want you to be slave to them. If possible your children and you be also slave to their unborn children in the future.
5. Despite doing your job diligently and being loyal doesn't mean anything to them. You are only doing your job even with your overtime. They fire you at any slightly mistake without remembering your sacrifice. Im
6. They don't need your idea. In there mind, you should keep your idea to yourself. Their idea is the best. To them, you should go and use your idea to be rich.
7. They forget to pay salary sometimes because of their schedule. They can decide to own you for months. They believe they must exploit the poor to be more richer. A poor employee is a tool in the hand of the rich.
8. Working for them doesn't make your life better or rich. You can work for an average person and achieve a lot than the so called rich. They prefer you eat best food with them than to be given cash. Eat with them and have energy to do work in the next day is their believe. They believe if youare given cash and you are comfortable, you nay be rich.
9. Most doesn't believe in religion especially the Christian one. They mock pastors and laugh, when they are in their mist. They can send imam or pastors to mecca/ Jerusalem so that you can keep praying for them.
Tired to talk jare.

You need to work on yourself. To me you are just an opportunist and gold digger. You ex is not coming back, she has put herself in a position of your wife. She has seen a lot of you weekness.
Love is reciprocal, if you show love to your wife, she will revert back. How will you not sleep with your wife since August. She will show you beast in her. You have displayed that you hate her from pit of hell. I pity you wahalai. I have someone that spent his life, thinking one woman is better than the other. 15 years has passed now.

PropertiesRe: Landlords And Landladies Share Your Experiences With Tenants by okewumi: 12:31pm On Sep 27, 2021
eagleeye2:
As a landlord always try to get everything or almost everything fixed before a prospective tenant move in. Also never forget to sign tenancy agreement with your tenants, very important. Do not be overly friendly with tenants, but have a humane heart and a listening ear. If you can do all these it will take an utterly irrational, wicked and jealous tenant to still cause problems for you.
I was once too good to a tenant that he started thinking that he can dictate to me and even insult me. But I showed him my werey side and eventually kicked him out. He went about spoiling my name and that of the compound. But God who sees everything later vindicated me.
Also avoid renting to Pastors. They are some of the worst kind of tenants you can ever have. (Apologies to the true men of God).
Never in my life will l give house to a pastor.

The man of God has a church outside Lagos and after the first year payment, l reduced the rent by 35% (he was complaining that their headquarter was not assisting again).
Now he has never pay full rent despite full reduction. The worst now is for him to bring chicken and be feeding them inside on of the room (3 bedroom flat) I have warned him but he has not moved them out. I am just watching him in 3D
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Has Your Former Boss Made You Lose A New Job? by okewumi: 11:54am On Sep 21, 2021
Employers are HUMAN. We have good human being and bad one. You are changing from one company/school to another which is in the same industry. They are pain sometimes for leaving. Some prefer you are slaves to them forever. They don't mind if your unborn children apply and be slave to their children too.

Let me give you a case study
I have work in one man business, if you resign, the man will keep monitoring your LinkedIn account or ask from other staffs your new place of work and if he knows your new employer, you are gone.

We organise a training for our partners in the same industry and different companies sent their staffs rep. These guys came with their cars for two days training. My former MD called some of MD that sent staffs that they should be vigilant because for those guys to be riding cars, it means they are stealing company money (so ridiculous) sad sad

You have to be careful in life. Don't think all employers have good hearth. Some are devil.

Abi !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The state is not an industrialize state comparing to Lagos and Ogun state. It is purely civil servant state apart from Nigerian Brewery and some others few manufacturing state.
The guy ensure he pays workers salary before end of the month so that their will be cash flow from civil servant to traders in market and artisan in the state. With that, the system can be managed. I know by the time they finish Lagos-Ibadan express way, more industries will surely diffuse to Oyo state.

Thank you for paying pensioners their stipend on time. The way my parent use to pray for him always amaze me.

Alots of men are suffering inside marriage ohh, na you go pay rent, pay school fee, build house.... The truth is guys should stop dating the avail girls, the avail girls are not doing anything, they cant add nothing to your life, dey only have in-between there legs to offer. Date girls and marry girls that are not avail. Date girls that are working, or learning trade, even if she ugly marry her like that, you cant use because of your wife is fine, then you nor go pay children school fees. girls that are working would give you less stress in marriage because they can contribute. Date and marry girls that there parents had train them very well, not the once roaming the street and looking for whom to carry all there problems.

RomanceRe: We Had Sex 2 Months Ago And She Is 3 Months Pregnant Now by okewumi: 3:17pm On Aug 09, 2021
nezer83:
Sorry about the loss in your pregnancy, you can try these;

1. Start taking follic acid if you have not been in it. Take 1 tablet a day.
2. Take lots of fruits and vegetables, and less sugar
3. Quit alcohol and smoking.
4. Take dates when your cycle starts, this will help you know if your body runs 28, 29, 0r 30 days cycle as the case may be. The Importance of this is to help you understand when you ovulate (the fertile period). A woman ovulates between 12 to 16th day from the first day of bleeding.
5. Use ovulation predict kit to check your ovulation. Use from the 12th day of your cycle.
6. Pay attention to the discharge of white clear mucus, this is usually a sign that ovulation is very close.
7. Have regular sex, every other day, on your most fertile period (usually 12-16th day of your cycle). Note that sperm survives for 5-7 days in a woman.
8. Try mid night or early morning sex, your body should be relaxed then.
9. Missionary position that allows for deep thrusting is advised (You can use a pillow under your waist)
10. Engage the services of a gynecologists.
110. Trust in God and keep trying.

Hope the above helps.
May God answer you before the year ends. Cheers.
Thank you for the update.
She can type ovulation calculator on goggle. She will input her cycle and the starting day of her period. Internet will bring her ovulation date. This really help when my partner was counting wrongly
