GloriousGbola:lmao bro I refuse to believe you can have that volume of money and be normal. It's impossible . Elon is a classic case of an eccentric billionaire . That guy has some screws lose but if all the screws are in place you can't be a billionaire. It's impossible . |

sukkot:You are completely right. Nigerians have that bad habit of entitlement. It's a curse and it's everywhere from North to South. You even read it online how some workers, families or even domestic staffs kill their employers or families all on this entitlement mentality. It has even permated every aspect of our society ranging from politics to churches or mosques. Everybody feels entitled such that the minute they stop receiving from you, you can't begin to phantom the level of disdain and hate. They don't like to call it what it is, Extortion whether through coercion or sentiments. That's one of the bane of this country's growth and development. Thus one own entitlement mentality is professional extortion caressed with lip and eye service which eventually adds to the already pilfering of our resources and corruption that fills up our political space. Afterall, those praising the emilokans mentality are like your security guy. Let their entitlement mentality be disappointed, you will see their true colors... Nuisance country |

otipoju:Good decision, I completely agree with all you wrote, your safety and security is more important than anything called blind patriotism, some diasporans went back to Nigeria and got Burchard by killers and most of the killing is linked to either a family member, friends or close associates ![]() |

@sukkot same thing too with the securities at my place and some others who are around you only because of what they can gain from you. They are never there for you , it s all about themselves and ass licking . Once the sweets disappear, they will free you . Once they stop getting free drinks , outings , food , money from u just know they will move into the next and they may even say bad things about you to people. Just stop smiling unnecessarily from now on . |

You gave someone a goat but refused to release the rope, have you given him the goat Whenever you gave out something don't expect a reward, either by kind or cash. Do it from the bottom of your heart. Given and started regretting show that you re not doing it from the bottom of your heart. It it like you wishing some good morning and the person did not reply you back or say anything, then you're offended. At that point you have withdrawn you're Good wishes from him. Again you re also discouraging the good people to stop being benevolent to others because of your own experience . A generous man is a generous man any time any day, and can never be changed from it. If I became wicked because of you, then I'm a wicked person from onset I was only pretending all these while. Character is a character, and can never be changed. God bless you. |

Innomach:Everybody is a beggar. Only that we beg different things at different times, but begging is begging. Do you know someone can walk up to you and asked for favor but he is well dressed, do you know that when you declined that offer, he might get home and hanged himself. Do you know what that person is going through that your Litle help can make him to change his mind.Listen if anybody ask you for help, if that person have that courage to ask you for help, don't look at their dressing if you have it give it to him. It has a way of prolonging your life and mind you givers never lack. A group of hired assassins visited a family to kill a man, but met his wife, the woman was very nice to them gave them good food and drinks , they patiently waited for her husband, finally the man arrived enter into the seating room and saw visitors wandering in his heart he never knew them. They greeted the man and told him to thank his wife, for being kind to them that otherwise they would killed him, that he married a good woman, that they are hired assassin hired to taminate his life. That's how they spared his life. My dear charity is good, it will saves a man from danger, and they will never plan evil against you, you can not know who is inside a masquerade but a man wearing a masquerade knows you. God bless you. |

Sablexxxtoons:I don't think any Indian would type a write-up as good as he did. I don't want to generalise, but it would hard to find an Indian that's good with English. |

sukkot:Na you cause am, next time do your charity away from home and mind your business. Honestly, you were trying to do the right thing but people have a way they assign a help to a responsibility, just ignore that guy like he never existed after a few days watch him run to you with apologies the ghost him finally. |

I think it is how one does those acts of benevolence that matters. .Do not make it everyday or consistently. Then vary the quantity and quality of giving. Then use style to tell them not to expect gifts always. |

sukkot:Never judge a book by its cover. Most of us do this but will claim we don't. A well dressed guy with fresh hair cut is almost always seen and readily accepted as a good ehmmm ..... responsible guy .... while another one well dressed with dreadlocks?... and tattoo .... he is almost always branded irresponsible and shunned. My advice .... if you need to help people .... help random people who you know need help. Begging these days is an occupation for many ... how can you determine who need and who want? There is a whole lot of working people who are really in need .... never write them off your who to help list. You may see a nurse with worn out shoes .... split at the back ... and you can see it was split before and repaired ..... that nurse needs help. If you feel like you want to help a particular person ... bear in mind ... it is better to teach one how to fish than give hime fish daily. Choose one who want to learn to fish . Regarding the entitled security guard .... if I were you I'll ask for a change. That guy may be plotting to have you robbed ... I wouldn't trust him. Maybe start dropping him foodstuffs again so he would call off his plot if any .... and when moved he wouldn't think you had a hand in it. |

I once met a guy who voiced out that " if you like give me present every day the day u refuse giving me,I will forget all ur previous good deeds" isn't that insane? |

Divoc19:It's almost nearly impossible!. If you stay with them it's worse.. if you don't, you'll see them once in a while and your kids will bond with theirs that's if they haven't poisoned their kids with toxicity.. best option is to educate your kids in time about it or make peace with them. ![]() |

But your never told us how the guy become your sworn enemy, is it because he refused to take your trash to the bin? Mind you, he is your security guard at the gate, not your domestic servant, it is within his right to reject taking your trash. |
| Re: Do You Make Someone Your Enemy When You Are Generous To Them ? by fancifulasuquo(m): 6:55am On May 12, 2023 |
Oga this your story is one sided, aside the security job there are other thing the guy does for you which although you don’t want to mention. Am sure He washes your car, run errands, take out your trash (which you unknowingly mentioned) besides how much do you think His company pays him ? You want him to do extra work for u instead of adding some tips you want to blackmail him as a typical Nigerian that you are. Tufiakwa |

sukkot:Just thinking about your area... Igbos don't behave like that. Every igbo man knows that everyday no be Christmas. Any hustling guy appreciates little things and 5k is even too much. If he is bigger than that, he would find a way to resiprocate your kindness with more than 5k. I don't really understand your environment or the people living around you |

sukkot:Rich people are not stingy I think they are wise ignoring the lower rungs of d society.i hv similar encounter at work with d securities their I gv them money alot even their oga but they turned it to something else like u must give us but d oga with d bags hv not given them shishi but I know later that it's for his peace of mind not to start what he can't finish.these guys beg irritatingly n don't hv time frame awareness.u gv them money in d morning by evening they are asking how far bros again.its better to lock up and be tag as stingy than feel sorry for them.their sense of entitlement is irritating |

sukkot:Boss, if I were in your shoes, I would find a way to get rid of the guy ASAP. Someone like that having any form of responsibility over your well being is a clear and present danger. Talking from experience. |

sukkot:For me, there is nothing bad in giving your house guard food. What kind of food am I talking about? Whenever you prepare prepare food for breakfast, launch or dinner at least try and serve him one plate a day. Regardless whether been paid salary or not. |
