Lmaooooooo

You begged a girl everyday for 4 months? Are you under a cûrse? You even said 'as God will have it' are you nörmal at all? You think that girl didn't fûck for 4 months while you kept doing bambiala on her case?


Your eye go clear
Life is bigger than your imagination. I can relate with your own kind of perception, but life is not always like that. You think once you beg a girl, she becomes very powerful and the man weak? Women love to be chased. With the way you think, anytime a girl tells you it's over, you will just move on. You go soon date the whole world, you never see anything. For me to beg her, you should have known she is not the kind of girls u think she is. Nor worry, this story big pass you.

I'd rather be a pope than believe your words!!! You have no knowledge of women at all. And worse off? You don't even wanna learn. So I'd let you burn.

I can see that you have anger issues. I can't even count the number of girls I have dated. For you to say I don't have knowledge of women, I just nor get your time. Keep your ideologies to yourself. I don't think inline with societal perception. Any small thing, una go shout simp.

Bro, are you in Lagos? Let's be friends. Our stories are similar, just that in my case, after my girlfriend broke up with me, I begged her for several months till we came back together. But I'm beginning to understand how women think.
You begged her to come back? That's the begining of your failures bro.. You don't beg woman to come back to your life, she will punish you with it sooner or later and will hit you with "did I force you?", "You begged me to stay with you" lines...

You can be anything in life but never be a pushover and a simp!!

Bro, please save up like crazy and start a physical business that will guarantee constant cash flow if possible.

Haha the account was closed I had to withdraw my funds, bet365 were tired of acting as my ATM machine, the current $4 on the account are returns from void bet, still expecting $15 refunds.

Since your account starts from $0 to $500, why withdraw the $500? Why not start from $500 then compound, and become a billionaire in 6 months? funny I must say. There are always ups and downs. fluctuations are normal even life itself ain't a straight line. Only skill will make bookies reject you as a customer. They are afraid of skilled bettors because they know, that skilled bettors can beat them blue black anytime any day.

On a closing note let's not derail the thread, I ain't selling anything I am just educating you that profitable sport betting requires skills. Winning in sports betting has nothing to do with predicting winners, it is all about knowing when to pounce on the bookies when they make an error. Have a nice day.
Oh gawd you two get a room and fvck so this tension can die down make person hear word abeg.

The one I posted up there was from Swift Loan.
But there were two other apps that sent similar unprofessional messages. Forgotten their exact names.
Worst thing is, I think it was just 2-3 days late on payment when they sent me that particular message.

Mr brother.
That's why I advice anyone I know to avoid these apps. There are even other dangers because many aren't even officially approved platforms.
If you miss payment by just a single day, they just assume you are running with their money.😂
Very weird behaviour.

Even my girl suddenly started calling me by my name. No more babe (first sign that a breakup was underway 😆). Story short; she ghosted me a few weeks down the line and told me she needed space even after telling her to stay calm and that things will fall back in place. She was like; it's not you or anything. I said I need space for myself.🤡
Let me just cut the story of the trauma and depression I went through during this whole loan period.

Share your stories if you have any experience with these loan sharks.
Hope Your Babe Ain't showing Interest 😉

2015 When I was Using Bank-Loans to Run Masters ...

Loan was not Designed to Help You But Designed To Make Some Tyrants To Earn More While They are Sleeping ...

In Order Words, You are Working For Their Own Well-being at The Expense of Your Own Well-being......

That's The Essence of The Exorbitant Interest Rates Almost Half of what You Borrowed Payable Within One Year With Penalty for Defaults Which Must Always Happens as a result of Macroeconomic Factors beyond Your Control ... what a Devilish System huh

Imagine Everyone becoming a Capital Provider While Sleeping ... who is Gonna Work for Who huh ...

Capitalism needs to be twerked with Humanitarianism ......

Any Corporate Loan is a Wrecker .... The Essence is to Enslaved You Without Liberation In Sight Except You Be OG, You will Never-Ever Escape It ....

They will now lie to you under restructuring grin ... Na so Oyinbo Dey Chop Africa Since Year 0 ...

Provide you with Long-term Loan that would enslaved Your 10th Generations grin ... Zombies Would Collect The Loan, Still Use the Proceeds to Invest In Oyinbo Countries then In Boom or Doom, Our People Would Never See Joy grin

Congratulations, bro; this is what I encourage many Nigerian youths to do. There are lots of opportunities online, given the worthless value of our naira, earning what foreigners regard as peanuts can be a huge sum when converted to our worthless currency. I had to quit my job earlier this year to focus fully on my value betting scheme. To my utmost surprise, I have made profits worth my 5 years salary in just 5 months, even with my meager $18 stakes, all thanks to our worthless currency.
The bottom line is to learn a skill, perfect your skill, sell your skill to the world, and receive your rewards in foreign currencies. A focused mind can achieve these in at most 2 years.
Hey bro!

I have interest in you value betting skill!

I am very good in speculation & fact finding..

Okay…I will try to keep this as short as possible.😂
So some emergency expenses came up at some point in early 2023 that I had to take out a loan of about N110K to pay back over N180K (from three loan apps I normally use). I was still on a N100K salary then, but here's where it got really funny: I lost my job just a week after!
I thought I still had everything under control until it was due date and I still had no tangible source of income apart from the little 3k, 5k, etc., I was getting from some content writing opportunities I got from the Jobs section here.
In order to meet up the high interest, I decided to take loans from more apps and try to at least pay up a little to reduce the calls. This was where I got it wrong. I ended up using up to five different loan apps to generate about 48K (to pay back almost double in interest) all this just to try and clear the original loan oh.😢
It got to a point where all the loans were due (with interests counting) and the only thing left at that point was for my phone to explode with insults and calls. Had to get a new SIM and also take some physical loans to try and balance things.
Few months down the line, I was in debt of almost N400K (was about N389k).
It got so serious that some friends and relatives even reached out and were like what's up with you and all these loan people na…Na wah oh?🧐🤨 Shame wan finish me. Me when no dey like make them table my matter.😬😓
Though my family was concerned, everyone still maintained OYO things when it came to providing a real way forward.
Even my girl suddenly started calling me by my name. No more babe (first sign that a breakup was underway 😆). Story short; she ghosted me a few weeks down the line and told me she needed space even after telling her to stay calm and that things will fall back in place. She was like; it's not you or anything. I said I need space for myself.🤡
Let me just cut the story of the trauma and depression I went through during this whole loan period.
Fast-forward to December 2023, I decided to give Upwork a try so I could sell my skills (Video Editing & 2D Art/Animation). Already had an account but thought it was almost impossible to really earn anything as a Nigerian.
Still encountered so many hurdles on the platform but somehow randomly landed my first gig which was a ridiculously low-priced gig with less than 5 proposals on the job market. Probably why they gave me a chance.
I couldn't even complete the full package. Delivered half of the job and got half the already-small pay ($10). But here's the thing, I luckily got a 5-star review from him, and things started moving forward slowly.
About two more gigs later, the fourth client I met on Upwork led me to Discord (this was around mid-march this year), and there on his private server, I came across a certain guy who was interested in hiring me outside Upwork. Seemed like a joke but I later found out he was a very big Italian YouTuber in the Animation/Paint Art niche (names withheld for privacy reasons).
Man just randomly made me a part of his team. I started working remotely and earning heavy sums I used to only hear about (thanks to the exchange rate of the Tinubu era…😂)
After receiving my first paycheck, I cleared each and every loan I ever took, got myself a new setup for easier work, saved some and then of course, used some to regain myself from the struggles of the past year. E no easy! Man I slept like a baby on the first night. grin
Been working for four months now, and I now look back and laugh at some funny experiences I couldn't even explain here.
So guys. That is how God saved me from loan sharks.
I don't normally create posts here, I just come once in a while to read and laugh. But I decided to share this testimony with y'all.
Peace and I'm out…✌️❣️

N/B: Please avoid loan sharks at all costs. In fact anything loan eh, be careful.

Share your stories if you have any experience with these loan sharks.
I sent you a DM sir.

I'm actually not an expert on these Upwork stuffs though. I will just say I got lucky. Because for sure I know how difficult it can be to navigate that platform properly when there are thousands of people offering the same services as you do, and a thousand others even above your experience level.
Just that when you come across the right opportunity, you'll know it's for you.

Maybe something that gave me an advantage was the fact that I always started my cover letters with action phrases (Hey! Watch some similar videos I have worked on below, etc.), and then I indicate interest in making a free 30-seconds sample work for them to confirm my expertise (if it is a video) before I then proceed to introduce myself and do the normal cover letter stuffs.
It is applicable to any niche...But again, I can't tell for sure if this was what did the magic. Just my own theory.
Wish you good luck on Upwork bro!💪✔️
