You're the one that wants to live big man life, there are families where household income is 150K and they're managing to take care of 4 children from it, and still have savings at the end of the month!

If you get 45m now, won't you know what to do with it to escape poverty?

TemporaryHansel:
But, are they comfortable? That is the question.

My bunk mate for Uni na him story you just tell, Year one he was very close to first class, By year 2 he was introduced to "Kashi"
By year 3 he has become an addict to betting. He will leave room going to class maybe Test dey at 12noon, he will just say let me bet N100 by 1130 he will be down say N5k, I will tell him guy your test is starting now He will ask me "Shey I wan leave 5k loss on table dey go for test ni" Make he try recover small.

Thats how one semester allowance will finish within 4hrs of betting, He will now start begging, or promising to help people take exams. It got to a stage he promised 3 people the same exam, same time and those he didnt show up for started chasing him around school. They caught him one day and beat him badly

He even did the same racket, promised exam runs for one girl wey be DPO sidechic, Police begin fnd am and he had to disappear from school for almost 1 semester leading to extra year

Today he isnt doing well at all, this was someone in his teenage years we all used to look up to him

If you win that via betting on the likely you will tin through half of it chasing a bigger win

My guy Kwame aka Calculus na the same thing. He was a bright boy hence his nickname Calculus

The first and only time I ever placed a bet in the bookies was following Kwame to go put £2 on the outcome of Porto Vs Monaco in 2004 UCL final, little did I know this has become a problem for Kwame. It was when his baby mother called us his friends to intervene in his matter that we knew the matter was serious. She was working while Kwame was in uni. Kwame will blow his student loan and start blowing money she brought home for groceries, failing to pay bills and absconding with money meant for the house upkeep.

Next thing you know Kwame and I will be en route to play for our uni football team, we are already cutting it fine for time, Kwame will say he needs to stop at cash point to withdraw money and place a bet before we travel. I stopped with Kwame at cash point, his hands were trembling, he will withdraw £10 and walk away from the cash point, leaving the £10 in the machine, his mind was so distracted. I will now pick the money and give him. Cut long story short, Kwame dropped out, and we heard around 2008 that he got caught in Canary Islands bringing drugs to UK (as a drug mule). His situation and need for cash must have got so desperate. This is not before dropping 2 more kids on that girl in quick succession. Kwame ended up with a long bid in Canary Islands, I think he got 10 year sentence

Last I spoke to a mutual friend a couple years ago, Kwame was back in UK, working as a driver for some escort agency (basically a pïmp/protector). He would drop the girls to wherever they were being hired and wait in the car till business is concluded peacefully. So I asked my guy to greet him and he also sent his greetings.

Kwame situation showed me to stay away from anything gambling, followed by one of my junior brother who wrecked himself gambling a few years later, which started with an innocuous trip to a casino and snowballed into something else. I won't go into his story cos village people are watching but like I always say, I'd rather become an alcoholic than a gambler

But for the Okpa knucklehead obsessing about my looks, I'd do exactly what I sometimes do to unattractive men obsessing about other men more advantaged than them in the looks department - taunt you with my picture. Here's another to cry about.

iamoyindamola:

Make una have mercy I just they break
I no wan choke

Ballzproblem2:
Unless he's fake obviously)

DissTroy:
Thanks for the backhanded compliment. Imagine looking so good, your detractors think your picture is fake or a catfish. My full names are known on this thread and same name across social media. It's even my current DP on Facebook and WhatsApp.

You want me uploading another last month with an appeal court judge and some other justices we hosted for an event? The backdrop would even reveal the location.

Thanks for the backhanded compliment anyway.

The guys story I told briefly was actually my very close friend from primary school. I will call him S. cos his name starts with S. He is a Moslem guy from a polygamous home but his mom was the first wife and was bounced for the newer wife. I don't know if you have encountered all those Moslem guys who learned Quran early, Very sharp with Math's but deficient in English. S was so good with Math's that in primary school that when we go Math's and English. S will score like 95 but his English will be like 60, while the rest of us will probably score 80-80

His mom knew me from primary school and my parents knew him to because prize winning day Math's is sure for him

By the time we got to SS1, He was already reading Engineering Maths by Stroud, Bunday textbook for Maths, he already took GCE and passed but 1 subject, By the time we were in SS2, he passed all the subjects so he never finished Secondary school because he was too good

So when I was in SS3, He already entered OAU Year 1. So when I was entering year 1, I deliberately wanted to stay in the same room so he can rub off him. His Year 1 GPA was about 4.4.

That year we stayed together was when one weed head guy we called "Elder" he was like 28yrs and an extra year student was also in our room that was who started teaching us how to play "Kashi" but my friend took extra interest in it and started the gambling life

In our room pre cell phone, my guy will just disappear for 2 weeks on those gambling trips from one school to another, get into trouble, no transport fare, enter lorry and just wandering around

By my year 3, I continued staying on campus and he moved to town where his life now took a very bad turn

One day his mom came to my house and told my parents that she found weed in commercial quantity in the traveling bag he was taking to school an they should tell me to stop being friends with her son before S corrupts me too

Many years later I tried to reach him and got info that he was still staying with his mom, got involved in an accident that broke his leg, I told him I will sponsor his MSc in Instrumentation from UI. I was paying the fees directly to the school (because I knew he would gamble with it). He finished his Masters and got a govt job.

2yrs ago, was when I heard from him that his mom died and I sent money to him for her burial

A wasted talent, I just realized that anything he wanted to do he always went in hard, whether gambling, weed smoking, Maths, Electronics
