And Bayern never disappoints. I knew if BVB were to somehow win the league, it would be from Bayern shooting themselves in the foot. And the minute i said Koln will be the likely team to score and they did

Dortmund did it!!! Whew!

So happy for them! They left it too late but made it!

Modified: My mistake... I just rechecked! Bayern won the title!

Congrats to Thomas Tuchel!

Angelfrost:
Bayern back in the lead... Dortmund needs a MIRACLE at this point!

Bottling of the Season loading!

No miracle for them today, they can try again in 10yrs

Congrats to Thomas Tuchel!... That man has to be the luckiest modafucka ever created!

That was how he came from nowhere and snatched UCL from Pep Guardiola!

Man City should be careful... Treble fit disappear like this o! But I trust City this season!

The Op no get understanding of Nigeria and how the situation and economic works, there is no jobs anywhere even with the few jobs in town the salaries are so poor that a grown up adult will have to skip meal because he can't afford it. The only option is to find any little business that can bring in little income to survive. The situation of Nigerians today is now survival, you can hard find any youth in this country living up to his dream and aspirations. If I want to build a startup business do you know how much resources it will cost me? Where will I get the money from? Who will fund it?. These are many problems limiting majority of Nigeria youths.
We have big plans and dreams but the dreams becomes useless when there is no resources to push it. Majority of the youth are try to survive, they are dumb, or foolish they just want to survive in the hard economic

I have noticed that most Nigerians are adults by age only and not thought. 80% of adults lack a clue about their next move and direction.

They usually copy what other successful people around them are doing on the surface.

If a colleague buys a car, they start getting worked up until they also buy a car. If a neighbour opens a shop for his wife they rush to open a shop too. If their friend is into tech, they abandon their budding career and start taking tech courses upandan.

I think the copiers do this because they believe mimicking will make them reach the same goals as the person but they fail to realize that life doesn't work that way because there are many unseen events and efforts that may have led to the copyee's success.

The colleague who bought a car may have been gifted by a sugar daddy or recently lost a parent and inherited the car while you are planning to use your entire savings plus loan.
The neighbour opening a shop may have had 15 years experience in that biz line while you just want to dive into it blindly.
The tech guy may just have the brains for it while you are more likely to succeed at sales.


Finally, when they are done copying and don't achieve the same successful result as the copyee, the next thing is to accuse him/her of using juju and using people's destiny to succeed.

Just do you.

The so called principles of economics literally doesn't work in Nigeria. Rather we are in a competitive adventurous strive to lead. Apparently this is a war talents. Las las money is the goal

Op, you made a valid point but it's not people fault because no enabling environment to try new things. We copied everything from classwork to final year project thesis, and copying is not only done at lower level of education,even at higher level. The country economy situation is not helping any ambitious individual. I believe copies of Dangote refinery will soon be and everyone will benefit from it. Copying is a cultural thing in Nigeria, if you don't copy you may be left behind, so copy anything copable. There was a time a student was copying in an exam but mistakenly copy the other person names.

Don't blame them. Nigeria isn't working so once people see any business that gives money, everyone would dive into it and over saturate it.

Look at POS... around 2016, you can rent a shop and run POS and make reasonable money. In fact you could live comfortably with POS business. Today, you'll find over 20 POS operators on a single street. So if you're planning on going into it, just be prepared cos whatever you make from it obviously wouldn't be able sustain you.

Look at Uber/Bolt. I know someone who is in Canada today courtesy of Uber. He started out as an Uber driver as far back as 2017. Today because there are no jobs, more and more guys (and even ladies) are going into uber. This had made Uber become over saturated . And if their drivers are honest with you, they'll admit that it's not as lucrative as it used to be.

Same with provision shop, you can find more than 20 on one street all selling the same thing. How on Earth would they make profit?

Is it korokpe or danfo bus...that one is worse, there are some routes you'll ply, when you reach and park, before it reaches your turn to load again, it might take up to an hour because there are lots and lots of other buses ahead of you.

In the late 90s and early 2000s, one of the fastest way to make money as someone who wasn't fortunate to attain university education was to do hire purchase. Find someone who would give you a bus, and within a year, you've paid him back and you have the bus all to yourself.

Today, bad economy and inflation has made it impossible for these guys to deliver, so even though they're in possession of the vehicle, they would find it very difficult meeting their daily target.

It's not that these businesses aren't lucrative, they are but because there are so many competitors, profit becomes very slim. This is why so many of them aren't making it.

If the country is working, people wouldn't be eager to do any kind of business, this means that businesses wouldn't be over saturated, so those doing it would easily prosper.

you forgot pure water.

Private refineries everywhere
Except you want what is shut down in the South South monthly nobody is going down that dangote route anytime soon

Another thing I noticed in this country is that when the uneducated ones formulate any rumor it is the educated one that help spread it without investigation.

Your observation is quite alright

But don't forget that behind all the struggles and hustles, everybody is just trying to survive.

Very true.

Nigerian adults are very trendy. They follow what in the news or gossip brings.

Reason why the japa syndrome is trending a lot.

Typical ogbono goblin okoro

Always feels they are something when in fact they are empty.

Imagine this akpu infested entity telling the owner of a forum how to run it and complaining about advertisements which helps the owner to generate money.

Quit the forum, that's your only option.

Nairaland is not the only place to cry, your fellow okoros are crying on twitter and Facebook too

Very tiring

Beautiful piece. I recall one member here LeoDeKing who is also omenka. Back in the day he used to spend time criticizing and spreading tribalism 24 hours a day.

Shatap there. What do you know?

Nowadays, "kids" are raising kids!

Angelfrost:
In other news... This might be Thomas Tuchel's season after all!

Dortmund aiming for the position of King of Bottlers!

Dortmund just had one job to do today, after Bayern gave them a lifeline last week. But what did they do? Couldn't win their last game at home. What a pity! Only that I would never have pity for they and Arsenal. They deserve to go trophyless for the next 100 years!

PS, Bellingham had better port to Mancity ASAP.

because the govt refused to open up the economy to opportunities and they didnt do it becasue they suffered from the same problem the OP raised... most nigerians aint forward thinkers, we hardly plan or have foresight for more than 2 years and this affect our leaders becasue they are part of us the people before they become leaders. that limited foresight of ours have reduced our definition of success to money, money and money( i'm not denying the fact that money is important or good but our myopias have reduced it to everything)... You will governors/Presidents fighting to keep oppressing people for something he will only enjoy for 4yrs or 8yrs maximum when a forward thinker will see the 4 or 8yrs as a step to plan for the next generation... leaders think about the next generation but our leaders cant becasue they are from amogst us the people that suffer what the OP said..its a real problem

POS agents everywhere you go...

Dortmund messed up big time... Imagine the crucial penalty Haller missed!

This is a trophy that they may never come this close to winning for years to come... Bayern played rubbish the entire season, and you still stupidly gifted them the trophy!

Bellingham is definitely avoiding Man City... He already dissed them badly!

Real Madrid will take him...! Liverpool would have been his preferred destination but those ones will never pay that joke of a transfer fee!
