The advice is funny to you but not to others
Is data analytics the only skill... Its just an example.
Read and think before you open your mouth...

You seem quite sensitive and easily offended .Anyway I already acknowledged that
yes it is not the only skill that was not the point the point was that your advice still relates to going to his father for help rather than self reliance so perhaps you should take YOUR OWN advice on reading

You focussed on the part where you perceived an insult. Honestly that was not my intention .
You need to work on your self esteem and stop seeing insults where none exist.
Yes it is funny

From the story he told he needs to forget about his father as a source of money and look inward whether he is interested in data analytics or carpentry

Hezzyluv:
My parents where not stingy, they where just poor. however, my dad manage to pay my WAEC fee after the SSCE, I go do mistake further my school instead of learning hand work

Someone paying 950 per session without hassle is poor?

Lol... Its seems you are hurt by my words. Don't take it to heart. Since you talk about self esteem, then its your issue bro... Settle it.

Like i said... Read and think

SavageResponse:


Go and work for your own money so you can use it to gamble all you want!

if truly ur parents are not generous to u that means , o ki n se omo gidi, u got some bad behavior before u got admission and they knows u won't change cuz u are now free in school to do any how.....

Lol
I am exactly the wrong person to try that reverse psyche with.
Let us leave that gay stuff alone and focus. I do not want to hurt anyone and it is petty to see that as an achievement. I rather heal. Work on your esteem


The point I was making was he needs to develop self reliance and fix his situation himself
Going to daddy for laptop etc is just perpetuating dependency

TOTOnigga:
Hello guys.... I don't just know.. Is it just me or is there anything I don't understand......my parents are rich people especially my dad, I know that for sure... someone paying #950,000 naira per year as school fees for me aside other expenses, plus multiple houses and lands I can't even keep count of....

How come they are this stingy? There is no time I would ask them for money for my own personal well being or any of my personal needs that they would like to assist me. I once ask mum for #12,000 naira just to buy a fairly used android phone (when I know they can even afford me an iPhone x) but she told me I should wait till months end before she gives me saying there is no money on ground... it's five months now and still nothing (not waiting for it though)...

Then I ask my dad, he told me I don't need an android phone... telling me that phone makes people unserious and other types of bulls*it( a 19 year old student for that matter)

Any expenses that is not book or academic related is not important...my parents would rather buy clothes for me than give me money to buy clothes... sometimes I end up not wearing some of them..

The funniest part is that, anytime I take any urgent lie(Asin scam) about any payment in school...they wouldn't Waits a second to send it to me... This has got me telling all sorts of lies just to get what I know can be gotten honestly.. It has even gotten to the point that any money that enters my hand now, I use it to play sports betting to see if I can get enough money for what I need, but I end up loosing the money...I am just frustrated.. someone time I wish I didn't even have rich parents cos what's the point...

Are they stingy to outsiders too?
Like do they help people? Be honest

walesoflyf:
Bro the best you can do is try and get money from them, that you need to learn an IT course.. You can inflate the fees for the course.. Go ahead and learn the course while still in school and the be self dependent.. I belive by the time you are through with the course, you'll have garnered a side knowledge and start using that as a side hustle to make money for yourself...

God bless u for this advice..... I hope he listen. Spoil child

I can't tell it all. No offense meant.
You need to change your attitude and be serious. They have a perception about you.

How can you say your parents are rich but stingy?

I have a friend by extension, his parents are okay even sent him to one of the expensive private universities in the west yet this nigga is not in good terms with the parents.

But the sister is very calm and understanding, she has access to their parents assets including money. And works somewhere that pays her up to 500k monthly but nigga is complaining. Many times, his Dad turns down his calls and even mum doesn't help out.

My advice, change your lifestyle, change your company. Make your way through your mum

When you grow up and struggle on your own you will appreciate parents

LordVoldermort:
@First bolded, You guys never say how to hustle, what side hustle do you want to start when you don't have any money?
@second bolded, I agree but humans are social animals we love to compare ourselves with others consciously or not, if his parents knew they are not rich enough why send him to a place surrounded by wealthy kids... that sounds like torture.

I should tell him how to hustle online? Everyone with their own path. He should look for what best suits him. That's for him to discover.

Is it a crime to want good education for your kids? Even in public schools, rich kids are there. They are everywhere, comparing yourself to anyone in whatever form it takes is toxicity. You're being toxic to yourself and soon enough you'll become a menace to those around you. The only person you compare yourself with is you. Set targets, meet them and try to become better everyday.

May God bless baami, I know he's not on socials but that man dey try..

Man was earning less than $100 every month and hin still manage sponsor hin pikins to school still hustle work for me after I dust school matter.

Bia OP, that your last paragraph fii be reason why your old man and malee no wan dey press you small thing, e sure me die say dem know as e dey go for you that's why dem lock up..

your parents think like business people. They don't pluck money from a tree. Any money they spend must yield fruit from them based on history. That is it is better they spend on your education or buy you a laptop that would educate than phone that might be a liability to you.

You look irresponsible to me...

I do think that is the reason behind their stinginess...

What will happen if you've got all the money at your disposal... You will do drugs.

Your name is TOTONIGGA... Change!!!

Op, your parents are giving you a great lesson in how money works and being frugal in life. Keeps studying hard until you get out into the world and start earning your own.

Thank God for you stars and the privilege of having a rich but stingy parent.

You no be criminal na why.

Pls understand with them , they don't want u to get their money . All they want u to get is their senses which is better . Considering ur appetite for squandering , if ur parents leave those properties for u today u will end up selling them off to fund ur pleasure pursuit. Pls they are doing u good . They are waiting for u to develop the capacity to manage and control wealth . Thank God for their lives . When the right time comes u will see the other side of them pleasantly

Bro....let me be very honest with you. Your parents have you at heart, you are 19yrs old, it is not an age for financial lavishness as you think. Try to focus on school and make the best results. My dad had money to pay for my University at a Private University but i ended up in a State University. Through out my University days, i can never remember been given 30K as pocket money if not for rent, fees or errand. Today i am a graduate, fully employed (thanks be to God). Now i don't have to play bet (i did and regretted), i choose what to buy.....JUST BE PATIENT AND THANKFUL TO GOD IN AS MUCH AS YOU ARE NOT LACKING WHAT TO EAT.
