Nop, the IMMEASURABLE CONTRIBUTIONS of my parents aside...My elder sibling almost single handedly sponsored my Msc...Not because I lack the means.., but because they felt its better to invest my own small change. Omoh, nobody go come between us woh, NOT EVEN MY FUTURE WIFE!
I am not saying your future wife should come between you and your family? They also will understand. Now for example, your wife is in the delivery room, bills needed to be paid and your sibling called you for money to settle bills too... Which one are you going to settle first with the cash at hand?

We already have a joined family account that we contribute percentage monthly too, for unforeseen situations like these.

Anyways, childbirth is a medical emergency, of course it would come first na 🤷...But if na normal bills, I would allocate funds based on priority & who asked first. it's that easy

Good one... I love this coming from you. I cap for your logic and I.Q.
More reasons I do tell young guys who are singles that marriage is meant for mature minds. And one must learn how to balance between your immediate family and extended family...

Let's assume there will be a situation where such order will be given.
Let's also assume that my sister and my wife are very good and nice people, almost at the same proportion, I will save my wife.

You'll not understand until you are married. The two individuals are very important to me, the lost of my wife will have great effect on my life and future more than it will if I lose my sister.

Mind you, I come from a family were our family tie is so strong. Still my wife becomes my own family.
I think d loss of one's son will have greater effect on a man's life and future than d wife bcuz it is d son or sons that will bear d name and take over everything from d father.

It means one has to take the initiative .

I have a cousin of about the same age. While he was waiting for one uncle to help him, I was making small small moves to better myself.

Uncle disappoint and after twenty five years they are now blaming him for not trying to improve himself.

Till date that nasty " come and save me mindset " is still in him and I am the new messiah. Person wey senior me ooo.

I had to ignore a message he sent some months back saying I am the only one who can help him.

This man was told to go learn any digital skill and I will pay for the training and certification so he can compete on the global scene and earn in dollars. Na lie na motor him wan make I buy for am to dey do Uber.


That mindset is deadly. No one is coming to save you for real.
So u don't know that not everybody will toll the path of digital skills or tech C'mon. I am totally in support of u not buying him the car as that's your decision but no b everybody go become like u. Some do not have the brain for tech or other vices ...

Brother, imagine sending a full grown man money every every 3 months like sey na me born am. It's one business idea after the other with the promise not to come back. Na lie.

Borrow money like 5 times, no repay back. Been carrying nigga on my back for over 15 years now.

Recently, I bought brand new equipment that will help expand his business. Nigger still dey ask me sey make I send money make him buy other accessories...for business wey youndey run dey profit from.

For those foolish folks saying person dey talk too much. Nairalnad is anonymous for a reason. You need a place to vent somethings wey you no fit tell person for real life.

And venting is how you stay sane and not die of heart disease unto sey you dey form Mr Macho.

You mean that the pain from the lose of a boy child will be greater than that of a girl child?

If this is your stand, I think you are backwards in your thinking.
The pain of losing a child is the same, be it a boy or a girl.

I agree with you. What OP is doing is dishonest as it amounts to deliberately trying to take credit for the thoughts and utterances of others.
Guys please pardon me but I have tried crediting my source"QUORA.COM", but wasn't able to modify. Thanks for your understanding.

All the same, I think people getting to read it here is a positive contribution.

But the correction Is noted and accepted.

That's a liability, those kind should be run far away from. To get someone to help in this era is a golden opportunity not to talk of 5 times yet the person keep coming back. Na to throway face oo...

Don't stop being kind bro, God bless you...

I don't agree with number 3. Family is family, there's no difference.
I think the wisdom in it goes beyond the literal terms. It's deeper than that. What I think though.🤔💭

Learn their needs. Lead them.

Mmm.
Re: If You Are 35years You Should Have Realize These by greenalwaz: 3:31pm On Jun 08, 2024
Ochyes:
1. Stay silent. Not everything needs to be said.
Silence is better than unnecessary drama.

2. If you find someone smarter than you, work with them, don't compete. Competition is a weakness.

3. The family you create is more important than the family you come from.

4. Your current job doesn't care about you. They only pay you enough to kill your dreams.

5. Free yourself from society's advice, most of them have no idea of what they're doing.

6. Influence: Most people drift through life. They have no purpose, no direction, and zero intent. Learn their needs. Lead them.

7. You are what you think, what you eat, what you read, the visuals/audio materials you consume and those you associate with.

8. It's better to have 1 friend who's;

Happy for you
Supports your win
Encourage your dreams
Than a bunch of acquittances who are

Lazy
Self-centered
Jealous of your success

9. You'll be 10x happier if you forgive your parents and stop blaming them.

10. No one will ever come save you. Your life is 100% your responsibility.

11.Your inner circle should be more focused on money, success, and starting a family.

12.You don't need 100 self-help books. All you need is actions and self-discipline.

Believe in your heart and soul that you are capable of big things in your life.

The only thing that is standing in your way is yourself.

Remove your glass ceiling.

It means one has to take the initiative .

I have a cousin of about the same age. While he was waiting for one uncle to help him, I was making small small moves to better myself...and I was lucky to have one or two friends and even strangers at every stage that lent a helping hand.

Well, Uncle disappoint and after twenty five years they are now blaming him for not trying to improve himself.

Till date that nasty " come and save me mindset " is still in him and I am the new Messiah. Person wey senior me ooo go dey call me "baba".

I had to ignore a message he sent some months back saying I am the only one who can help him.

This man was told to go learn any digital skill wey your brain go fit carry. ( There are hundreds of them) no be everything be programming.

I will pay for the training and certification so you can compete on the global scene and earn in dollars. Na lie na motor him wan make I buy for am to dey do Uber. If motor spoil or AK or Lastma impound the car for traffic offense, na me you go still dey call.

Learn something wey go make you independent of everybody and go useful for you for life na lie.

That mindset is deadly. No one is coming to save you for real. Move in the directions of your dreams no matter how small the steps are and God will send helpers your way who will not even remember that they helped you self.

I don see for plenty things for this life and with a huge sense of responsibility I dey teach young ones wey one listen how to navigate.

Some younger Nigerians wey dey reach out to me as per adugbo levels, I dey tell go learn any certification, I will pay for the tuition and the certification exams and provide logistical support in the background for you to play on the global scene...this is how much you can earn as you still dey young.

Na lie...na who go give them money to flex for Christmas dem dey find. Dey will be cooking different format to collect money from you as if no be the same Lagos dem born all ofus
