Yankee sweet no cap
The fact that you can work and earn good money, eat food, pay bills, drive in sane environment, comfortable life without stress.
I mean just accessing the basic things you need at your fingertips. It’s enough for me.
No rush no hustle as u are working you are earning.
Peace of mind, you can change jobs, jobs full ground.

Unlike naija dt u will work for 6yrs and loose the job and no job for next 2yrs, start driving Uber to put food on table.
Or your salary is being slashed and your boss no send you.

Not to derail, in Nigeria, a lot of people still attend church largely due to failure of the government. There's no support structure for the ordinary citizenry... The church is the last beacon of hope.

But I'm amazed when people expect fantastic stuff /miracle without putting in the required work ..
For instance, material prosperity (what we all pray for) is hinged on giving back to humanity The most advanced nations of the world are the most philanthropic..
Transgenerational wealth is sustained by giving back to the needs of humanity.
Boss there's a lot attached to church going as much as political gathering. You can't take the socialisation effect off it. A building contractor that worship under churches that like planting parishes is a big man already. A good tailor with a touch of Ebuke is already a big person. In fact people now call make up artist before going to church. And if you attend the one on providence with the kind of Tojahh mindset, free lollipops will always be around you. Lot of social benefit boss... but I'll like to focus on the purification as I see it as a sacred place and if my heart is not clean, then I am wasting my time.

I'm not speaking like a pastor I'm only speaking like a Christian and people change when challenges confront one or when one salvation is not totally in line with the word of God... All those you mentioned are great men of God but[b] I don't know why you still decide to do your thing personally[/b] after rocking with all this servant of God..
I was expecting the first bold. People changes for various reasons, some may just be eyes opener. You remember the Sadio Mane thing not holding a cup of beer in his team photo? That's what religious and belief does to us. I am not saying he is wrong, as every man have to go with his or her belief and should be respected. That reminds me of 3 events which 2 was my school days. 1. A lady had a carry over, so she came to my level to rewrite it. Obviously a Deeper Life denomination by are blouse, hair and skirt. She sat right beside me, as i observed all the nonsense she was writing (mind I move with selective crew). Call her attention to what she is doing and she ignored me. Why? She doesn't believe in examination malpractice, not even to ask questions. So she's lost in her own world. She took like 4 different papers. What manner of religion put her in that chain is what I am yet to understand till today.

2. My roommate attends a church that sales tickets to them. I don't know what they told them to make them buy ticket. He will use is feeding money to buy ticket and be looking for someone to sell the ticket too. I don't want to judge. It only remind me of my sisters and many Nigerians. They hardly give, not because they don't want to give, but stuffs they have to keep up with once the salary lands.... but you see that tithes and 1st year fruit? Don't go there, even if it means going broke, so be it.

3. Why is that Nigerians abroad put work first. If you are meant to resume work 9am on Sunday, you won't use fulfilling your spirit first as excuse. Late 10 minutes in some company and kiss your work goodbye.

What I mean by personal is more like concious effort and common sense, since there's no anointing for ignorance in the kingdom. Pastor can't tell me to jump into fire and I'll do that because he is a pastor. I have messages on my phone and I listen to it when I feel like. Tho, may we not forsake the gathering of one another.

Smiles.... What you don't know is that most of the Medical practitioner that you mentioned are genuine born again Christian in Africa and all over the world.... BEN CARSON was a perfect example.... I will say it again and again that a genuine man God don't need the members money to survive God will raise men to cater for his own... New callings are going to spring forth because Generals of.God kingdom will be retired home or rest due to old age but the same anointing on them will rest on the incoming generations and they will do more than the previous generals that is what the devil is fighting but I'm always confused why people normally tag church with offering and tithe and not others things they are doing......
Other things they are doing like? I don't like speaking about religious position view with people as I believe time changes all. Today you are sounding like a pastor and it feel like I am the one against church. Tomorrow it may be the other way round. I have seen that a lot, folks just change and I wonder where it all went wrong. My friend that used to invite me to church, only left this country and stop believing in God. I am the one begging him now. Loads of curious tots especially with our bigotry ways of worshiping.

Ps: I rock with Pastor Sam, Joy Meyer, Joel Osteen and Pastor Bola Odutola... I just do my thing on a personal level.

Na sunday work sweet pass, just that if you hang for yaba/surulere axis na short trips of 5H to 1K back to back till after church.
Make una go church ooo... sincerely lock down reveal a lot about religion. My concern have been non off this pastor was able to cure corona. Our lives was practically in the hands of medical practitioners. Those people really went all out for us and won't forget the effort of Akin Abayomi, the man gave his best. One thing I leant from covid? Made pastors are made, but the upcoming ones are at the mercy of their members, no tithes, no offerings, no gifts... the hunger that will injure them is not here. Las Las the members are the live wire of the pastor, apart from the made ones that have invested by expanding their church. Their church? That sounds odd, but some churches are privately own.

You stated : I am about to spend 200k on 2 cars and I am not happy

Maybe it is you that needs to see a therapist ... Not me


In terms of your business challenges try and look for a mentor ... Try checking in with Pearl1910 he has a wealth of knowledge .......

I spoke to him few times and he goes out of his way to help people. .. You need to attached yourself with people that are doing good .. You can pick their brains and learn from them.



You asked : if Investing 8m to get 3 cars makes sense. Again Pearl 1910 will be able to answer those questions .. You know that my cars on uber are bought Tokunbo.. U pretty much aware of that. And also I stated several times that am not a big fan of naija used cars. And if I had 8m na Engine oil I go use am buy. If you pay attention to my post u will know that am no longer investing in uber business..
From day 1 I advice people to diversify their business. If you pay attention u know that I import bulk engine oil .. You will notice that I barely talk about uber business anymore



You stated :And it is imperative you know this... the fact that your" relationship with someone doesn't go the right way, does not make you or the person in question a bad person"

A thief is a thief ..... There is no sugar coating it .. I doubt a good person will intentionally steal from a person...

Sorry I no fit reply to all your questions here ... Your post long die... And I hate typing, since you took your time to write , it is only fair that I at least reply you..

I hate to type on phone....
grin it is really hard not to be insultive here, because you guys will really tempt one to toll that lane. Please don't bring him into my picture, else I'll drag him like a faulty generator and even you know he's no match for me. I consented to being a gentleman on his case out of respect for Barbiturate and let the story be that. Note! No hard feelings, not even one... but it is what it is.

You said you don't like typing? Like did you really type that or it was a mistake? Dude you've been up here typing nonsense and incoherent things. Who does that? Do you really think I want to get involve on this banter? If it is vibes, cruise or jabs... wow, it's ohk and another way to burn out stress. The moment your start bringing family matters up here, going about having issues with everyone you meet, then you need to check yourself Bro.

Gosh! I have meet people here, was there a time you ever learnt I have issue with anyone or anyone call me out? It is call wisdom and I'll dash you one for free. Don't give people what they want(you can't satisfy every want), give them what they deserve and it starts be first studying their person. Every human have a worthy tag on them, the moment you've realised their kind of person, put their worth on them and live your life. No fuss, no wahala... relationship is not working, simply means it is not work. I don't have emotions to be discharging unnecessarily. You've spent 3 pages on threats and I ask what is it that you want to say, that is new self. If you take all those pages to throw threats, how many will the revelation take. Damn who started first... I don't even want to take anyone side, both of your should just grow beyond bringing private matters to people who barely know you. One day you guys will have issue with your wife and bring it here.

Note! If it heals or to counter a point, then it is understandable.

About a thief being a thief, meeting your boy for knowledge, your not investing in Uber and using 8m to import engine oil?

I just read where you said Don join in discrediting your boy grin did he act cunny or not? Who is Gabrinchi? Would you have preferred if Don has turned blind eyes to the truth and paint black, white just to suit your narrative. See the way you just try to murder his name and how he was quick to counter it. You blocked a soul for no reason or your inability and concerns and you say you didn't play God there. Damn! Who the f are you? I am about to spend 200k on cars and you can't understand the point of not being happy about that. Please were you happy going to police station, were you happy when your car was driven to one way and going to pay lastma money or when your cars was involved in accident? Maybe your boy helped you out. Use your head man, every human long for a free hitch life, but it is impossible as part of what we've come to do in life is to solve problems. You should have referred me to your boy, if I have ask you to borrow me money or seek for loan to fix. I have been running my shift for years and I have never begged a kobo, maybe ask me how I survived. And if we help people with our right hand, left is not supposed to know about it., read that again and your boy sticking his neck out to help.

About you running away from Uber means it is not profitable. Told you back then, your method will flop and here we are both observing it. 8m to be waiting for 90k weekly. They pay for 2 weeks and one come with big story. Here you have to take from received money to sought out issues your didn't bargain for and the circle goes on because you lack a proper model of setting up such business. Meet your boy for classes, you spoke to him a lot, yet learnt nothing. You are a bad student, did you read where he advised someone about getting a naija used car or both of you are not in concord when it comes to that grin how can two work when they both can't be on same page on important matter as that?

Regardless, I am not trying to put you down, rather me wishing you grow. Favourable start as you try your uber stuff again next week.

Cheers !!!

Dru try and see a therapist... I've learnt not to take sides here, but sometimes these things goes beyond just vibes and the as* lickers won't say the truth. There's nothing you want to expose about your business partner that is new under the sun. Even if they carry your money run or your car, you are not new to it or are we new to it. This is the first of it kind, is jusy a way of stressing the needless. Someone you once trusted with your money run you street live for here and nothing happen. So nothing new, all I see is just 2 folks trying to dance naked in public space. Most of us here do business with each other, some goes fine and some flops. We move, best you can do, is to distance yourself from any relationship that is not giving the peace or vawulence you desire. And it is imperative you know this... the fact that your relationship with someone doesn't go the right way, does not make you or the person in question a bad person. Relatively, we all have our good and bad side, which makes us imperfect.

If I say I am typing with respect, waters my message. These things we have seen it and it feels like you have money to throw around. I like you for your honesty and pure mind... but forgiveness seems to be far from your dictionary. I remember when you and I had argument over if your pattern of running this business is profitable, because from my feasibility study, I don't see you making profit from ehailling with this many wahala. Honestly, it is not from the angle of hate or jealousy, but someone that wants to see everyone flourish. I don't have to sugar coat anything or just focus on the good tides of business without bringing the down times to revelation. I am about to spend 200k on 2 cars and I am not happy I have too. Even the 200k may not be enough. Battery, Ac, paper renewal, tyres, body work and legs. That me just managing myself, now talk about you at the far end of USG and want to have it all. Things are bound to happen, you just have to deal with it like a man.

Ps: But does it really make sense to invest 8m into this business? Assuming it will get 3 cars.
