Hello all, I want to get a a good portable car for my mum which she can use to go for her business. Any seller here can recommend or suggest. Location is Portharcourt.

bought a jagbajantis corrola for 2.1

I have spent another 2 million to put it in shape

Had I known
I would have just gone for a 3.5 million naira car and safe myself the stress of seat changing
Engine issues
Very bad suspension
Too old for any good look



Don't go for this type of car

Up your funds to atleast 3-4 million

Driggs:
I agre my brother.. if one isn't careful, the 1.7 will turn to 800k and you won't be able to explain why .

I am only amplifying because I know Nigerians are good people.. not good enough to suffer in silence.. I have seen God come through for people through nairaland.. he's still alive

I 100% agree with you

I sold my Audi 2008 for 1.3 because i needed to help the person

But the dynamics of faith and available cash is what people cannot really explain just as you are doing

I am currently having a bad experience with a car i bought from a person which I thought was going to help because I needed a roughing car in my new location

You are most likely going for a Toyota or Honda

If you check online, the least for for something that won't give you issues is about 2.8-4 million
That's why I told you to save more

Generally I like to have two cars

In your case..this seems like the first one

Having just a car in Nigerian isn't even good enough

You will usually need two

Looking at it properly

If you are looking at just getting a car now
Make sure the status of the car is really good to avoid wasting time in kazeem shops plus loss of funds

Driggs:
Father of 2 don tire.. but he won't give up..

If God moves your heart, Abeg let me know
I dey Lagos

If you value your car for more than that, I can spread the balance payment for a few months..

Let them take Uber when ever they need it
While you safe for the main car

You need safe about 4 million to be in a position of advantage

No.need to rush it

Rain will still beat the family if you get a bad car

Nna2025:
Dear Nairalanders,

My company asked a couple of us to resign, services no longer required. I was paid a little above 10M and I will be venturing into lending. Microlending. Please say your prayers for me and wish me well. I will appreciate all you prayers and encouragement too...

Thank You and Regards,

Start first by offering people loans for business without using your money

Like solar loan
Water and the rest

The Loans will be given by the bank
See if you can get commission from it

Run that for atleast a year before putting down your money

Your 10 million is like 6000 USD

Only a business you have done well enough
Or something you really know can get you profit on that money
Or just use the money buy lands

But lands been one of the safest can be risky too
You can let me me know if you are interested in property business

Hi everyone- please help find solution to my fuel gushing car. It finishes full tank less than a day without travelling out the city. Apparently, catalytic is ok, the injector is ok and radiator has been changed but the issue is not solved. I can see alot of Mazda cx9 2009 around ibadan and I don't think their vehicles consuming fuel like mine otherwise their won't be alot of this vehicles around.

I have tried alot of mechanic, but the issue is not solved. Is any using the same vehicle and had similar experience?.

Any recommendations for mechanic in IBADAN?

What year
I use cx9 on in too
As currently having same problem
After changing the engine on December

Cristlaw:
Good day Nairaland.

I will be brief.
I love this lady and I believe she loves me too because she is my dream woman.
we plan to get married by early next year, but the problem here is that my mom want me to hold on with the wedding because she feels I'm not buoyant enough for marriage.
My finance promise to support though.

By this year December, I should have saved 1.5M from my pocket and I believe family and friends will support as my total budget for the wedding is 2M.

Although I didn't tell her about my savings yet.
I don't want to enter a marriage without my parents support. Just few months left to new year and I'm so confused right now.

What should I do guys?

Don't ever marry based on your savings

Never used the main money you have for wedding

Never do a wedding beyound 10-20 % of your capacity
Meaning reserve 80-90% of your capacity for.marriage


Now...in marriage

You have 4 main responsibilities as man

Responsibility of your wife's needs
Responsible for the needs of the home
Responsible for the needs of the children
Finally the most expensive which many half baked men don't know

The vision of the wife
You will not have an issue here if she is visionless
But the implications of that is that you may be breeding a nagging wife

Guys usually have their eyes on kids as home
But there is usually more

Been.ready for the wedding means you are 80-90 ready for all of the needs above
Which is marriage itself

If you have been saving and you are not ready either through savings plus works or business for the above needs and responsibilities

You will easily get tired of marriage just after your wedding because of financial burden

Goo0dHardDick:
The girl is too poor to buy an iPhone for herself but somehow she doesn't see herself as broke.. it's the man that's driving Benz that she's broke-shaming for not buying her an iphone? Something she herself cannot afford for her own self? I don't know where they get their audacity from.

The audacity of Nigerian women needs to be studied at mental hospitals, because na crase dey worry many of Dem. Money is more valuable than opueh

When your life revolves around your dick
You will always find this type of babe

OKOATA:
Baba na because them broke. Ned Nwoko, Davido, tuface and the likes aren't facing such? LMAO.

How many people are ok in this economy

I am saying it again

Several single fathers are suffering too

Some single mothers are even enjoying and envied because they got money too

dreamxhaser:
Dey give yourself hope

Dey mumu yourself

Bebold:
You should be given an award for that

I hope you Single father also get married to a single mother.

The untold truth about single fathers, is that it's also difficult for them to find girls without child/ren to truly love them to the point of marriage.

I have a couple of guys in that shoe, the girl's family will warn their child that the man is an irresponsible one.

So many single fathers are frustrated on this one
Only the one with enough cash gets to be looked

I have two guys battling this for more than 8 years now

The ladies get talked about here frequently
But several guys are going through the same

Fetula4u:
have you been scammed before

Be asking

femdevcon:
Reach out to me on WhatsApp 08078
I have a fully verified Flutterwave and paystack account

Your details will be used to scam people at the global level if you sell your account
Don't do it

DNAPro:
I spend average of N5,000 daily on Airtel data which amounts to about 2 million naira every year.

Recently, I observed that Airtel just shuts me out of the internet almost every 2 hours, even when I have robust data.

This has continued unabated for the past 6 months, and they are relentless about it. I have called them several times to complain, what I get is the usual questions,which ends with 'switch off your phone for 5 minutes'.

I hold virtual seminars and meeting on DNA testing and genetic testing with both local and international clients. Getting shut out of the internet while you are doing this can be very embarrassing and financially costly.

Why should I have data and yet struggle to browse the internet, even when the costs of their data is now so exorbitant.


I need a lasting solution and alternative.

What is the best hitchless internet service provider and how much does it to subscribe.

Business owners, internet guru please bring your suggestion.

I want to cut off Airtel for good. I'm tired.

Buy starlinks anf have your peace of mind

Starlink currently cost about 700k per year( 58k per month)

Then another 600k to acquire the device



Good part is

You can acquire the device
Sell it almost same price if you won't need it anymore

You pay a monthly subscription of 58k

As they no longer do it for 38k

The only reason why I could run a workspace business was because I had the option of starlinks

Below is my current month usage for 38k

80,000

apprentist:
Thanks for taking out the time to comment. I wouldn't like to sound like I'm defending myself here.

1. I had tried to teach her to drive but no success and she doesn't have the time to go to driving school

2. I recently upgraded my washing machine to manual to fully auto so as to avoid the stress of rinsing and drying. And I do 100% of the laundry at home.

The only reason I can consider a housemaid would be to take care of my kids after school which to me is as same as them being in day care. Why do we underestimate the importance of parent care for children at their early stage in Africa? Anyways, your point is made. Thanks again

COVID time sweet lol
Had same experience as yours

But not exactly

Marriage was 2021

Fortunately wifee wasn't working

But here is the deal...except you make the marriage western( you will need to localise some areas

Do you have the capacity to take care of the family ,if she stops working ?

What are your ideas around her career and what plans do you have In moving her forward (build trust)

Bro, because I am a Christian too and tried avoiding the issues around early marriages especially for ladies who do not know the need of their man

You will need change the plan in getting sexaul satisfaction

Then you will need reduce the home stress which is multi demensional

If you are sure she is not lazy

Take her off the job through her father or family members
And tell her you would be paying her salary monthly ( aside home keep money)

Tell her the new way you intend getting more funds to pay that salary consistently ( you need something believable)

This dosnt make sense..but lol
You need to bribe her, use all manner of tricks you know to gain trust and make her resign

Finally,get a maid... Get two if need be

In all...you need earn 2x of your present earnings to do things 2x of your current capacity

I left home yesterday to rest...as we have a child already...

If you are stressed as a man...you will need sex for real..

So I had to buy that time by making it available before I get home
By asking her of any pressing needs she had since she is home..I used the need as an access because she could still give me the excuse of been .busy with her work ( runs the business from home)

If you understand your wife enough, you should find a spot to always have access to the yash you need
It's the third time this week, while she told me only once per week because sex no be food
Well for her mind..that's ok
Na me know as he dey do me

G0odharddick:
They said over 1.5m got below 200 and jamb approved just 300+ to resit for the exam?

This simple means only those affected by glitches and computer errors can resit for the exam, others should take their scores and prepare for next year jamb.

The senate should make JAMB results valid for 5 years

It's a cash cow for the government

satelliteDISH:
Who's selling? I stay in Benin city.

Which generation do you want to buy
2nd or third

Anyone?

Include the salary to.be paid

I was offered a job for 250k naira monthly
But can't do such

But just maybe there are other Nigerians working in some companies in Egypt with such pay scale
I intend doing like six months and getting back to naija,

I have masters in sales and management
And hoping for a pay scale of atleast 3k USD

Still in need

Still looking

Bloomsvilledgit:
Go and steal na. Make una see question

The main reason for the post was for people to look into their earnings

See possible ways to start earning more
Even from Nigeria aside travelling out

The other side is for people to know that they can actually earn what they are exporting their entire lifetime for right from Nigeria
It's not easy

But I think if we have more people doing such

Many people will actually be employed in the society

AfahaAbia:
Nice post but try to change the subject of your post to "Live" not "Leave" for easy understanding.

It's really serious how the cost of living have become so high. Sometimes I always wonder how families with up to 4 children survive in present day Nigeria

Thanks

Clemss88:
your quoted amount does not worth the amount I spent getting the documents which I used in verifying the PayPal , I used international passport, utility bill and bank statement. I still verified the account using my store details which PayPal demanded. Minus the amount I paid for the PayPal to be created for me.

How much is the offer

Still better than most epileptic network
Some said video streaming is very bad ..ans would rather settle with MTN 5g
Truth is , there is no 5g in Nigeria
Having worked at various data center in Nigeria

I believe that shit

Clemss88:
