One thing with conceited people like you is that you illusorily know everything but understand nothing; I didn't negate the importance of money in my post.
Men! You are really a interesting fellow.

How am I a conceited person? I guess because I gave an opinion.

It is a pity. With all the grammar you've written through out this thread, i was thinking i was having a discussion with someone who is reasonable.

Anyway..i am disappointed.

Believe whatever you want to believe. Statistics show that it is very rare and very hard to make it from rags to riches.
Which statistics.

Anybody that want to create wealth do not go about looking for statistics, they just do it and sacrifice their time and resources in the pursuit of it.

People that will create wealth, will create wealth.

That is life for you.

Only the risk taker succed

Oga just admit you said nonsense. Even when someone told you that Erica has a movie on Netflix, you were still yapping trash.

Besides, it will be silly to discount what other people are doing because it is not entertainment related.
Admit to what exactly.

LordKO:
Her ilks are numerous; you see them yarning trash and permulating effective planning from convenience POV while negating constancy of change and indisputable importance of grit. They wittingly or unwittingly forget that less than 5 percent of the world population are gold collar workers thereby leaving huge chunk on survival based on unspoken neutrality, of which grit, couple with grace and definiteness of purpose, always reigns supreme on every game of neutrality.

Too much information with little knowledge has made it difficult for most people to know and understand that the world economy runs on quasi-informal system where grit, not some nonsense planned/fixed formal or informal acquired knowledge which makes good sense on glossing, is the indisputable commander.

First and last steps of economic emancipation lie on grit, not just neither money nor skill, because it comes in total package and the best motivator of grit is he/she who believes in the genius of your conviction with or without success in sight.

One's grit motivator is his/her MVP/MVE. Marriage like the one the person under discussion has, or his wife or offspring, could be his own grit motivator, so no one should cast aspersions on him.
Reality check - Without cash you can not make cash neither can you emancipate yourself financially.

Anyway, every man for himself and way of thinking...i wont criticize whatever anybody believes.

I know right.

That's why people who were well off before the pandemic suddenly went under.

The Hospitality sector right now is bleeding. Same with the Aviation sector.

Things happen.
You mean the middle class.... even among the middle class, those with investments and emergency savings were afloat during the crisis

not to talk about the Nigerian wealthy that hedge all their funds in dollars and real estate

Which kind of nonsense talk is this? I'm sure you are not watching the show, but just getting few gist here and there.
All the housemates have spoken about what they do at least 3 times. The first day, then twice the 2nd day, yet you just came here and started spewing rubbish about the housemates.

It is Laycon fans that will be his undoing in this competition.
I think you lack comprehension problem

I wrote something we can see, i didnt write about the in house profile

Just use this to understand what i meant

I didn't see any work of others except their selfies

Erica is an actress

Go and watch Hire A Woman on Netflix.

Eric is a fitness instructor, go to his page

Ka3na owns a store and clothing line. Go and check her IG page, she even signed Thelma as her brand ambassador.

Tolani is into A&R, half of Lagos knows her in music management. Maybe she will even manage Laycon after the show.

Kiddwaya doesn't need to do anything, his daddy is a billionaire, he's just on the show to see how the other side of the 1% lives grin

Ozo is into sports analysis and management. He has said that repeatedly, even while mentioning his first class in economics from a Norwegian University.

Prince is the current Mr. Nigeria World, a pageant guy through and through. He also dances when he can

Praise is an exotic dancer. You may have to visit the club he performs at, to see him in action, or you may be lucky enough to see him bust a few moves in the house.

These are just a few of the housemates careers and talents. If you were watching out for anybody else, but Laycon, you would know these things, but I bet the only housemate you are interested in knowing is Laycon, that is why you erroneously assume he is the only one that has a talent outside of taking pictures.

You are one of those kimberlee has called out.
All these are heresay...there is no evidence... we only see their selfies not their actual work

William and Harry weren't born poor. They were born into a rich royal family. So was their father and their grandmother and their great-grandfather. You get the point. Extreme wealth is more often inherited than made. Most people who make in life had at least some opportunities right from the start, e.g. access to education.
People who make it from poverty to wealth are the exception, not the rule.
Some people lost their businesses due to the pandemic, not because of their lifestyle.
Between rich and poor there is something called the middle class. It's not all black and white.
I think you missed my point.

William and harry ancestors were commoners, a bold person in his ancestry lines started the organisation of the community that lead to the monarchy, also intermarriages between different monarchy sustained it.

As i wrote earlier, Every wealth was once started by a poor man who wanted better.

Even those born into wealth, Somebody who was poor in the family started creating the wealth

There is a reason Laycon is trending.. that is because he has a visible talent we can all tap into

We can see the talent and work he has done before entering the house

That makes him Unique when compared to the other housemates

I don't know what other house mates have done outside the house except taking and posing for selfies

Radical you say? Are Nigerian educated youths at where they should be? If youth are not ready to redeem themselves by supporting Sowore to fight and get them where they should be, please let him do it his own way. As an adult, I will continue to campaign and support him. For how long will the youth continue to fight and vote for the old gluttons(with due respect to those that are genuinely older than me) that stealing other childrens birthright? Sad.
The youth have the power, they are the bulk of the voters, why are they not organizing themselves for power.

even if sowore is in power nothing will change, let him go contest for his local government chairmanship first then we can take him serious.

also, i do not like people who shout revolution, Libya is a case study for all of us, Revolution led to Civil war, death and poverty.

If he is allowed to go about shouting revolution, Nigeria will be another libya.

is she the only capable woman in Nigeria.

Something bothers me so much in Nigeria

We have one person for everything, why can we breed thousands of people that have the skills in that field

1 okocha
1 Okonjo-iweala
1 Falana
1 this and that

It is a sad reality.

So only Okonjo-iweala is the only woman that has the capacity in a population of 200 million.

Op the poster of particular thread you made reference to didn't bash poor people( maybe some of the comments did bash poor people) but you are right that poor people are being bashed everywhere.

Some seem to think they have it all figured out but you see life can be very funny.

They can't seem to grasp why this person/ friend has not gotten to a particular level in life, they can't understand that things might just go haywire at some point irrespective of how financially secure the person thinks he/she is.

Some are born in poverty and they live and might die in poverty.
Some are born in wealth, they will live in wealth and end up dying poor.
Some born in poverty will end up in wealth.
Some born into wealth will live in wealth and even leave wealth for their grandchildren to inherit.

Life will teach some people. Nobody wants to be poor, no one plans to be poor but the poor will always be among us and these are things some people will never understand.
I totally disagree.

Every Fortune was started by a poor person.... even those who were born in wealth, their poor grand father started it all.

Only a human can change his so called destiny.

People get rich, average and poor because they want.

People lose and get money because of their lifestyle.

To be rich is hard but how many people are willing to give that sacrifice to become rich

I told a poster on another thread that money has wings and can fly.

She asked how?

Peeps need to look around more.
Money does not have any wing nor does it fly away.

The only way people get broke easily is living above their means, bad investments and also no saving.

I met my husband in the university so obviously, 'financial stability' at that point was non-existent.

I have never based my choice of husband on money; my mother overfed me with confidence that I knew/know I will be rich enough to enjoy myself. cheesy With money out, comes character, vision, ambition, and if he is/was the one for me. (I believe in soulmates/God destined spouses).
But if he didn't improve himself, i believe, you wouldn't have given him the respect he deserved.

The reality is that 90% of women will go for a financially stable man over a poor man

A financially stable man does not need to have millions but at least has a stable income to take care of the family.

I will continue to stay this, Without money, you can not achieve vision or ambition.

I do not dissagree with you at all. But how much? What level of income is stable income?
100K as a man, if your wife is working also, then combine income will help in moving the family to the next level

Also just because you have 100k does not mean that you should born kids like rat

At least on a 100k salary or a combine income of 170k , one kid should be enough until when their is improvement in circumstances.

I think it is the recent lust for materialism and lack of contentment that makes people preach 'financial stability' before marriage.

While it is good to be 'financially stable', not everyone would be.

I think the goal should be to teach everyone financial responsibility, contentment and financial intelligence.

So that their N1 or N10 can go a long way.

And the need to have very few kids aka one or two.

What 'kills' most poor people is the number of kids they have.

I have seen comparable poor people and the number of kids (2 kids vs 5 kids) made a whole world of difference.
I will like to ask you a question

who will you go for in marriage

A financially stable man or a man without income aka Poor man?

Pls answer my question without being bias
