I will give you the advice I give others and myself. 1. Since you can't really stop giving, make a strict budget for what you are willing to part with monthly or quarterly. Tell your significant other about this to help you track it. And give yourself a deadline like 4 or 5 years when you put off the switch. 2. Make sure you invest every other cent you make. You should not keep idle funds. You can't give what you don't have. 3. Learn to say NO and teach your kids how to do same. 4. Learn to ignore calls until you have money to give. 5. Always give LESS than what somebody asks for. NEVER give the full amount 20 Likes 2 Shares |

Haha I can relate very well with this and I can write an epistle about my experience but got no time fort that. My advise to you is to either change your numbers and if you must give these friends your number it should be the one you can easily change at anytime. I have not been to Facebook chat for over a year now because each time I got there it was messages of friends bombarding me with one financial demands or the other. How you forgot them and what not. And even since I stopped going to the chat they've not cease from messaging with incessant demands which I don't even reply. The thing is once you're abroad most of your friends consider you to be living in opulence and you can't have the usual friendly correspondence you normally had with them without luring you to their problems, mainly money. It's only on Facebook that this sh1t happens though as it's easier to change phone numbers from such people. 1 Like |

Just do the little you can , we Africans also have to show some love to our extended family and friends. Though it could be very annoying sometimes expecially when you know the person making the demand is lazy and not the serious type. |

You earn 6 figure salary per month, spend 50% on mortgage and complain about spening $3k per month to less privileged ? sounds silly. You are a PhD holder, yet you come to nairaland where mostly undergraduate students are visitors to seek for advise on common-sense issue ? Sounds silly also. Well, my advise is to close the facebook account, throw the phone line away and buy new phone where only your wife and kid will have access to. That way, you can enjoy your 6 figure salary alone.

ronald4lif: The best thing to do is to ignore them but ensure you chat them up once in a while. They can't understand no matter know hard you try to explain and you also can't distance yourself from them. |
