CHEAP IDEA FOR FENCING Instead of buying blocks, raising, and cementing it with the cost of blocks and cement today. It would be better to use pipe and concrete mix to fence your property. Buy plastic pipes (4k per one) You might need 20 pieces Cut into two Dig the ground and plant it in a straight line Buy your sand and concrete and cement Mix it and pour them into your plastic pipes. Voila You have your fence. Even if the pipes wear with time, your concrete cast will remain and you could plant fencing flowers and nettles around it. Saving you a whole lot in blocks and cement which is susceptible to collapse during heavy rain . |

Using Pallet for Ceiling The cost of abestos ceiling is 5 thousand per one. Instead why not buy pallet 300 per one and 20-30 piece (6 thousand naira) can cover a room or a shop Pallet insulates and can easily be replaced, you can smooth it with emery's cloth and paint it in any color of your choice. |

Adding pictures of the kind of fencing and ceiling you are describing to your posts would have been a great idea. |
| Re: Living Besides Nigeria by Psiyohos(op): 6:10pm On Feb 05, 2025 |
Here's an example of the fencing done by a church He used iron pipes. But you could also use plastic pipes and pour concrete mix inside it and it doesn't have to be as tall as this. But this is good too

Living The Life Monastic Monastic life is a form of Monk living, steeped in renunciation and asceticism. It becomes the only way to be once you master it. You get to save a lot of money and live healthier. I practiced it at one time and I saw purity first hand My regimen then was Wake, boil beans Go to my shop Download a book I will be reading through the day Fast till 12 pm Drink Garri in the morning with either date or groundnut Eat crackers and cucumbers in the afternoon Come back home around 6 pm and eat the beans And If you spend 200 daily on garri have 2 jalabiyas for staying at home 6k Do your subscription of night plan of 500 mb 50 naira Download a movie and a book using the Telegram app to be read and seen during the day. You might not spend up to 150 thousand naira in a year. I'm serious. Just have 5 of each clothes for work, 2 jalabiyas for staying at home, living a strict regimen and you will find yourself with more money and a better health. Asceticism, autophagy, Long walks, Reading and sleeping more, and you will live longer. |

Clothing Hack I noticed the clothes in second hand market (super) are now even substandard than before, they cannot afford quality bail and the clothes are even more expensive. Clothing is a priority but we need to stop buying these second hand clothes and start sewing out clothes from scratch,. It has more quality and when you calculate it, it's the same price. So you could buy a material 3-4k per yard Sew it for 8k And you could have 3/4 shirts of quality. I bought even the least cotton material - Teru For 1.2k p/yard -4.8k Sew it for 8k with design I get 4 shirts (12k total) basically 3k per shirt And with more quality and last longer than these fading second hand clothes without quality being sold now.

Witchcraft Injuries Certain sores appear at the back of your sole, and toe, created and heated up by women who make them pain you and cause them not to heal, they are sweet sores that affect your nerves and can hinder you from walking. In Igbo it is called achi ere Use ash to heal these injuries Pressing ash on the surface or swallowing a copious amount of ash (nothing will happen,it cannot kill you) to cleanse your system and dry it up |

Psiyohos:What about athletes foot? Can ash work? |
| Re: Living Besides Nigeria by Psiyohos(op): 1:53pm On Mar 27, 2025 |
Well you'll need to mix some salt with the ash and put drops of hot water using cotton wool But if you have the money, Apple cider vinegar or any vinegar is your best bet. |

SEWING YOUR CLOTHES At some point in your life it becomes a spiritual impediment for you to put on any cloth that have been worn by any man either white or black Taking time to buy material and sewing your cloth is important as you grow older. Then again, there are work clothes make sure you buy brand new. but second hand clothes... no no no!! |

For a Nigeria without Egg The recent poor exam results of our young schoolers have been linked to the decline in Egg consumption due to the price of eggs today. Remember Bone marrow is there for you, it's another source of protein similar to egg Wonderful for your noodles, spaghetti and rice, fitting for a possible Nigeria without egg

How to Live The Cheapest Life No matter how hard the country gets, I keep thinking of ways to make it livable for the you and me, ordinary who must find a way to live besides it, who just want to live a simple life with our families Here's how you could live a cheap life off saving 500 naira daily. Get a piggy bank and keep 500 inside to be opened at the end of every month.. 200 become 6k for buying a material of 4k (4yrds of Teru or plain material) for 2 shirts as a guy or 2 simple gown as a lady. 200 becomes 6k for buying a painter of beans to be ground and used for eating moi moi every day ( I believe moi moi and ugwu should be Nigerian staple diet, its nutritional benefits are immense) 100 becomes 3k for paying your electricity bills. ceteris paribus you should live a simple life by doing night plan downloading movies on telegram channels, books that you will read and watch in your shop everyday, learning while literally minding your own business... That is the cheapest free, the cheapest happy, to living besides Nigeria. |

Get a Charcoal Stove The recent crisis with the distribution and sale of gas goes to show how important having a charcoal stove is for emergency cases like this one. People couldn't cook. keep a Charcoal stove just in case, just to think we have a civility that can turned of under the whims and caprices of those in power don't be left hanging This goes to show you how fast our civilization can crumble, if it goes on for more than six months, it would be chaos as civilization cannot work on an empty stomach Get some protection for your family, go solar and Buy a charcoal stove |

The Eba Souffle This name sound cushy but it's a hard wrought idea of a poor man's eba. where a boiling hot water with red garri meets salt ground crayfish grounded fresh pepper locust beans red oil mashed together with the eba to make a souffle when you can't afford to make soup. You can add dried fish and diced onions. and you will see... |

The Olympic Torch I keep thinking of ways to make the Charcoal stove perfect but the initial burning and getting the coal to crackle and burn seems like it's disabantage. So I thinking of using the idea for the Olympics torch to make a flame we can put underneath the stove that burns the coal without stress. You will need a tin ( maybe a milk tin) You will need to add and mix sharp sand with diesel. Then you can just set fire to it and place it under the pot. The fire will never give out. No more stress of fanning blowing and using all sort of nylon and paper to get it to burn. when you are done, simply remove your tin and put a lid on it to snuff out the oxygen to be used again the next time. |

Try this: Have you tried eating garden egg and okra soup, Mashing and blending a mix of garden eggs and okra to make a thick vegetable soup with ugwu and fish It is quite interesting. Especially if you add the i locust beans, dawa or (ogiri) crayfish and a paste of grounded groundnut as your seasoning. |

Are You Ready?? By the time the New world order officially kicks in January, will it meet you ready it will start with the taxations and come with an increased inflation that ensures that people will never leave their economic caste. Are you prepared to find an alternate way to start living by . Sewing cloth Saving 500 naira per day Homeschooling your kids Open your own business Having at least a room on a plot of land. If you aren't here, it's not looking good at all, We are at peak oil, And We are about to undergo the world wide slated baptism of fire. It's not going to be easy, Create a business for your children rather than sending them to the university. without a business they are just going to suffer. |

Making Boxers Shorts One other benefits of sewing your own cloth is you get to make boxers short off the remaining pieces for the same amount for sewing the main cloth. why should you spend money buying a new boxer shorts, killing two stones with one bird you have variety, cotton, plain material, native boxers short. "Waste ke? Ehn, use am do short knicker for me" |
| Re: Living Besides Nigeria by Psiyohos(op): 12:34am On Feb 02 |
Cotton Material As Bedsheets I have thought about this and I think bedsheets are one of the biggest scams if one isn't buying a brand new. Instead of buying a second hand bedsheet for 3-5k why not buy cotton materials as bedsheet. Even some of the pieces go for 2k and you get a thicker sturdier material than the second hand weaker. |
