Toks2008:

Honestly I am not the right person to ask cos I failed in it.
It doesn't mean you won't succeed but do your due diligence very well.

I understand but you can still guide me you have better experience tell me where u failed and I will avoid such mistake thanks

Its actually a very tricky business that involves alot of regulations and monitoring.....people pay according to their consumption... Its from 3k a month to 5k... 17,hrs daily.... I bought a device from China that we set after we had checked what you intend to use once you plug more than you paid your light trips off

this is innovation at best. I feel like crying after hearing what u've faced
What a country!

First in history I have followed a thread till the end. Kudos to everyone who made out time to narrate their different ordeals.
Never start any biz with a loan. Trust no man in business. I repeat trust No man. Not even your parents nor siblings. I lost 300,000thousand naira in 2006 in a wonder bank. Courtesy, a family member. Anytime I see the receipt among my documents, I get electric shock all over my body. From experience, the only sure investment is to buy any genuine landed property .

What kind of loan? Loan from friends or loan from mfb? Because I am about starting a biz now. I can say that 70% of the start up capital ain't mine. It's coming from my friends. What say you my dear friend?

Hello everyone
Let me too share my small story on bad investment.


So early last year, when I was in 100L my small 18 years old self heard about naija taxi, and how you can make 15k every month if u put some small thousands of naira ��

And my aunty just sent me 10k., naso I put 5k into naija taxi, before one month reach, naija taxi closed down oo.

I did not see my 5k again ��.
Wo hunger flog sense into me for the next three weeks, to make matters worst my mates con dey laugh me �� because I told them that I would soon gain financial freedom.
Well I did learn two valuable lessons
1) Never invest in a business u know nothing about.
2) Don't count your chicks before they hatch.

God bless us all oo

Hi everyone

I lost over 1mil in Cryptocurrency trading when I was a noob in the game.

I have gained over x6 of the lost now.

A word of advise for Crypto guys here:

Learn the basic TA such as Bollinger band, RSI and MACD.



Learn Price actions, resistance and support strategies.

Don't be greedy, always take profit no matter how small..

Don't contact anybody here, the YouTube is there for you to learn.

I wish you all the best.

Anybody dabbling into cryptocurrency trading should just follow this advice. I'm always disturbed when people say they loose money. One thing I know is you loose when you can't hodl anymore and sell below your entry point. Oh, well, except you bought into some shady lending, betting ICO last year

Investing in YouTube tutorials is good. A 1 gig sub will get anyone started with some videos on anything they want to know.

Thank you for this, bros.

[quote author=Generalkorex post=73104192]I made money from redesigning blogger blog for people, I charge very low compared to what those big names charge, plus the one I made from my saving then,I was working as a teacher and do extra lesson too.l invested in liberty reserve earning Small Small from buying at I the rate of 160 and sell for 165/dollars.It was going smoothly,then a friend introduced me to a platform where you can transfer liberty reserve fund to payza acount and earn profit.it was making sense at first until i transfered 3k liberty reserve. and feu the company disappeared.the guy i was buying the liberty reserve from his hand said he saw it coming but his selfishness to sell his fund didnt allow him to caution me.My money, My brother's money all gone.



While I was still trying to track the website liberty reserve closed down

Purplekush:
as a 28 yr old who was fresh out of service. I started online buisness with my blog and was raking in 250 to 300k plus per month. after like 3 months the income rose to 1mil plus and even 2.some in some months.

Then I started trying out new investments...

LONG STORY SHORT: lost 800k to MMM. By Feb when MMM was confirmed to have crashed, I went ahead to lose another 1 Million naira and 6 months trying to set up another online business.

The painful part was not the 6 months of no income but the bad timing.

because, I had already paid for some plots of land before then. Paid for my new apartment. Was about making down payment for a new Corolla 2015 model when MMM crashed... and the investment started acting funny.

I was TOTALLY SCREWED!

I come lose lappy wey I buy 250k then Acer V Nitro. I was so depressed the only thing that kept me from SUICIDE was MaryJane. I owe my life to her

But then I was able to cash out around 300k plus on the 1mil investment and I am currently on another HOT NICHE and just 2 months in it i am glad to say I now make at least 9 to 15k a day.

By God's grace and if this one goes well, I should be hitting 7figures per month from next year. INSHA ALLAH! AMEN.

Nothing beats losing money to some yeye deal. It brings out the adrenaline in you.

WORD OF ADVICE TO ALL STARTERS: think Internet business. It's cheap to start and gives you room to make mistakes with less financial loses. Besides, the ROI is totally insane!

I used to have a set of video courses for pple who are always asking "show me the way" but then nobody wants to put in work. Most peeps just want free money.

I am really hoping to find something i can do online and won’t mind learning from you. You mind sending me your number?

Gmajor:

I'm interested in the video. Why don't you upload it on a cloud like mega or Google drive and then people who are interested can pay for it?
How large is the file?

It's more than 5 Gig. I'm trying to compress them. I should put up a post today on how to get the videos. To be notified kindly follow my moniker, bro

I had a mild loss this year
I imported some iPhones earlier this year to reselll but mumu me did not do due diligence on their unlock status. I ended up buying 3 locked phones spent like 60k+ to unlock 2 of them. I sold the last one like that. All in all, I made loss of around 20k and that’s because I bought very cheap if not, I for hear am. But I understand that was a learning curve. Hopefully, I won’t make that kind of mistake again

Bro please I would love to this cheap iPhone too..please can you show me how..please

For your info I play my own games thoroughly researched by me and I have been smiling. The winning rate of the best punters in the world is not up to 70 percent. What makes the difference is proper money management.

Take your games away no one needs them here. Bye Bye.

Bro please do you have any pattern that works for you in betting?

I dunno why I pity you but let me just help your life.

2 kinds of people make money thru "online business"
1. a website or blog that is POPULAR, tens of thousands of viewers everyday, and
2. people who sell the dream of making money online, like the ones you are begging here.

don't waste time or money on no. 2. if they really are good, they would be too busy being no. 1. They need suckers like you to feed.

I've said enough.

Bro please can I get your contact I would like to ask you some few question about exportation

Ask here it send a pm

I have lost quite some money.

I met this guy that claims he trades forex and makes millions... I wanted to see him make the millions in my presence so I could learn. Then I was a corper. We met on some occasions and being on weekends he couldn't show me live trades. Weekdays he sends screenshots of how much he made. Then he would show "genuine " concern concerning my finances as a corper.

Later he asked me to bring just 20k to grow it for me.... He complained that he couldn't make enough money because of the size of the fund..... Later I put in 500k....in three days the money was gone.... Called him till he changed sim card entirely.
It was painful to loose such amount as a corper.

However, I was struck again and that one was terrible...
Met someone else who claimed he was great in forex trading... Told him to go to hell.... He was persistent and pleaded that I should give him a trial...

I decided to try him with just $100.
He managed to move the $100 to $800
After three weeks of monitoring him I decided that he was good..... Then I put in over a million....

Within two days he did well and boom all accounts got blown the next day..... He blamed whatever and pleaded that I give him $200 to recover all.... I deleted his number.


Bottom line.... DONT EVER GIVE YOUR HARD EARNED CASH TO ONE "PROFESSIONAL" FOREX TRADER TO MESS WITH.
