This post was made in March. Currently we have crossed over to 2025 by God's grace. Yet, note this:

The price of every single item mentioned on this thread has increased.

So, I don't know what the standard amount should be now. Everything is really expensive.

It's not a gender thing dearie. The crux of the matter is that most of the commenters on this forum are jealous and frustrated. Many of them have never entered a plane in their lives. Most of them have not even crossed the seme-border. Even on this poster's thread, he is being insulted by a few people. There was a girl who posted her trip to Morocco on the travel thread. You should see the level of insults she got. This is despite the fact that she POSTED that she was based in England. Too many bitter people on this site.
I can believe this. So much bitterness. People should be happy for others. So that when it is their turn, they can be celebrated too.
TravelRe: Trip To Mexico (pictures) by purples25(f): 9:12am On Jan 07, 2025
Good for you.

For all the ladies insulted on their travel threads here until they could no longer post, well, I won't take part in the celebration of this thread. It's okay when it's a man that traveled but when it's a woman, so many insults filled with bile.

Ciao. Men, enjoy your fellow man's travel thread. I'll be happy once I see a woman's travel thread grace the front page with mods making sure she isn't harassed.

Good evening ma'am.
I'm also a fiction writer ( romance and cozy mystery genre to be specific) and I've successfully completed jobs on Upwork for both clients and outsourcers.

Please kindly share the official WhatsApp contact of writendearn, if you don't mind.

Although I've already sent an application through thier email but I have not received a response yet. I wouldn't know if it's still functional since the OP was last seen in 2021.

Thank you!
Good evening, great writer.

I would like to give his contact, but that would require his permission and sadly, I've been cut off since last year, no replies or anything. I stopped receiving jobs or responses.

Here's what I'll try to do. I will send a mail to him, if he replies, I'll see to connecting both of you. Give me a week to see if I'll get a response, and I'll give you feedback.

I just saw one idiot troll that insulted me narrating what he went through here. So because of what you went through, that is why you randomly pick people here and insult them, abi? The insults you come here to keep inflicting on people may it transform to a thousand pains for you and continue by God's grace, let God fight for those of us you don't know here but keep coming to unleash your frustrations on like we are the cause of your problems. If God sees what you've been doing I pray he fights for us and punishes you for all those insults God punish you idiot.

I now understand why trolls operate the way they do, frustrated beings looking for whom to kill with their infectious frustrations.
CrimeRe: 29-Year-Old Groom Poisoned By 14-Year-Old Bride In Jigawa by purples25(f): 12:31pm On Jan 06, 2025
Why does a 27 year old think a 14 year old can actually love him? Why is a 22 year old that has had a relationship with a 14 year old seen as an actual lover? Why are both of them not seen as predators? Why is the 27 year old talking without fear of the law, why is he talking about dating the girl two years ago when she was 12 years old, like it's normal?

Lastly, with all these, what do these people consider to be a child? Who is a child in their eyes if a 14 year old can be deemed to be in love or even have an actual ex?

Before you relocate, if you truly intend to end the marriage, cut all ties after calling elders as witnesses. You will explain what has been happening and your mom's behavior before you suddenly relocate.

Maybe it's because it's been long I mined the pi sha

But have people started cashing out? Like how much for one pi now?
They've been cashing out for a while now. Last I asked my bro, it's 1 pi = 1000 naira. It changes o, it might not be the same value when you are done with the kyc. I only hope it's value continues to increase.
CrimeRe: The Story Of Ada Beke The fake Dermatologist by purples25(f): 10:51am On Jan 04, 2025
Bea1234:
Ok. Thanks. Let me mine for 30 days thanks
But for the Pi to have reached that level, you should have already mined up to their expectation. Just continue sha. Like I said, while mining, please try to find a professional around you to handle the rest.
CrimeRe: The Story Of Ada Beke The fake Dermatologist by purples25(f): 10:56pm On Jan 03, 2025

Thanks for replying.

Pls I already have the two apps.. It's just that the system said I should wait for kyc verification.. I'm around stage 7


I just want to know if there's someone I can do to open the system and do the kyc? It has not gotten to my turn yet..
I'm seeing there that you haven't mined enough to qualify for verification. You can mine everyday until the 30 days specified on your profile have been reached ... That's a month. While you are doing that, start searching...

My brother is doing mine for me, but I don't know anyone else. I think perhaps you can ask any tech savvy person close to you. Try that first, inquire within your friends and family, if anyone is into crypto/this Pi thing.

Bea1234:
Good evening ma'am. Please how did you do your pi kyc.. see what mine is writing?
You have to get a colored and clear version of your national I.D and also put in so much information. It is complicated but first, you would download the Pi browser which is different from the Pi app. You have to do it fast because verification takes long.

By the way that's a lot of Pi. It will be nice if you get it converted to naira o... good amount of money. I suggest you get someone very very trustworthy to do this whole processing for you, because they'd still give you a lengthy password and all that. I got my I.D improved upon, I mean the colored version, for 3k and now I'm verified. It's a lengthy process, get a trusted person that will not take the money from you when converted to help out. Family member that is so trustworthy is even the best.

But if you must start alone, download Pi browser first. When it opens you'll see the option for kyc. Don't touch anything you don't understand there. Find someone to help you quick before the deadline.
CrimeRe: The Story Of Ada Beke The fake Dermatologist by purples25(f):
Please, I want to use this topic to address some issues concerning fake life.

PLEASE people should stop using the term 'fake life' anyhow. There is fake life where people are lying about what they have.

However when women wear any type of beauty enhancement, it is called fake life, even when everyone knows it's an artificial body attachment. Woman doesn't have money but dresses nicely to an event, people call it fake life. Someone poses in front of a car, didn't lie that it's their car, but just for posing there, it's fake life. You take a picture and enhance it, even if you never lied to anyone that that is how you really look, you are already accused of living fake life.

PLEASE AND PLEASE. Be guided on what fake life is. Taking nice pictures or edited pictures even though your life is not so good or you are not so beautiful, is not fake life. Wearing extensions of nails and hair that everyone knows is fake is not fake life. Posing by something, as long as you did not lie it is your own is NOT fake life.

Let them know. The Ada Beke is living fake life. I don't support fake life. But let everybody stop using the term anyhow.

These are the people we would be killing ourselves to go to the gym for. To have surgeries for. To make sure one is tight for. 😂

If you have low self esteem they'd even convince you that you're not effable (valid for intercourse). Meanwhile they could make it right with a dead and gutted turkeys hole. In fact, anything with a small hole that they can put the thing through for it to get that feeling.

Your face, your body shape, well, maybe there are truly men that care, but deep down, many can sleep with anything. They lied to us that all that shit mattered just to have us on our toes. To control our self esteem.

Good, good. Demand from them what they demand from women, they can't provide it neither can they be it. Honestly it's hard to find a partner who has certain qualities that you yourself do not have. You have to be what you want too.

Demand a virgin when you have been going around. When your sti or STD starts to show, you will say it's the innocent girl, not realizing it must be from where you've been before. This is how you stain someone that is innocent. Affect someone that has what you cannot give.

Affects both men and women o. Just be very close to the level of what you want in a partner, ladies have some money as you want a guy with money too. E get why.

It's possible for a Nigerian to be a master's degree holder and also an illiterate (village person). Look around you, evidence stares you in the face. smiley
In the sense that her mentality might not have changed even with her education. That's actually possible. But if the story is true, let him let her go. It's so painful for someone who married you to be talking as if devil tied both of you together. They can separate since there are no children yet.
RomanceRe: Why Are Foreign Women ‘rushing’ Nigerian Men? by purples25(f): 12:34am On Jan 02, 2025
greypencils:
Okay! One should understand the root cause of the Nigerian woman making demands of a boyfriend or fiance. I personally trace that to the Igbo culture. Traditionally, a woman is not expected to inherit lands or houses from her father after his demise. The prosperity of the Igbo woman is mostly tied to the husband She marries. She therefore becomes very picky over who She dates and eventually marries. Such a man is expected to take full responsibility of her before getting married as a sign that he is capable of doing same during the marriage. Younger generations of girls took cognisance of this. Lagos-based Igbo girls mixed with other tribes who definitely passed it on till it became a Nigerian phenomenon.

That being said, If Nigerian men want Nigerian girls to be less materialistic, it is our generation that will change the culture. When you have female children, provide adequately for them. Try to your utmost to give them the very best. Also, give them a place and treat them as equal to your male child. Give them a substantial part of your inheritance and let them know, marriage doesn't completely define a woman. Her career and personal achievements too should.

Until that has been done, Nigerian men have no right to complain about Nigerian women being materialistic.

For those who would quote me, picture Tony Elumelu's girls asking their boyfriend's for money for bone straight. They can never because they were born into money and they know they have a stake in their father's money.
The problem is, do Nigerian men really want independent Nigerian women? Many love having their pick of women courtesy of those women being poor, less educated, and less accomplished. I remember some women hiding their achievements and properties, just so they can get married.

Sometimes Nigerian men see these independent and accomplished ladies, and the next thing is to become their competition, scorn them by not giving them fulfilling or purposeful relationships, just using them or even scamming them. The Nigerian women who can find themselves and are comfortable are largely branded as prostitutes by a raging, jealous and angry group of Nigerian men. Example, Nairalands travel section - check where some women are travelling, opening threads about doing it alone, and see the amount of rude and bad assumptions and insults males have made about them.

What I will say is, the Nigerian man should examine himself and his ego, and if over the years, his kind has been sincerely supportive of successful and independent women. Nigerian men should not accuse their women, while they start calling them prostitutes once their women DO become successful and financially capable. Nigerian men should calm their egos down to accept the kind of Nigerian women they so crave. You can't want what you hate at the same time.

Meerahbel:
1. Money Market Mutual Funds:
A money market mutual fund is a type of investment vehicle that pools money from multiple investors to invest in low-risk, short-term debt securities. These funds typically invest in commercial paper, treasury bills, and certificates of deposit (CDs). The goal is to provide liquidity and preserve capital while earning a small return.

Example: You invest $1,000 in a money market mutual fund, which invests in a mix of short-term debt securities. You can expect to earn a small interest rate, say 1.5% per annum, and have access to your money when needed.

1. Treasury Bills (T-Bills):
Treasury bills are short-term government securities issued by a country's treasury department to finance its operations. T-Bills are considered very low-risk investments and offer a fixed return in the form of interest. They typically mature in a short period, ranging from a few weeks to a year.

Example: You buy a 3-month T-Bill with a face value of $1,000. You pay $980 for it, and at maturity, you receive the full $1,000, earning a $20 interest.

1. US Stocks Market:
The US stock market, also known as the equity market, is a platform where companies raise capital by issuing shares of stock to the public. Investors can buy and sell these shares, hoping to earn returns through dividends, capital appreciation, or both.

Example: You buy 10 shares of Apple stock at $100 each, totaling $1,000. If the stock price increases to $120, you can sell your shares for $1,200, earning a $200 profit.

Key differences:

- Risk level: Money market mutual funds and T-Bills are generally considered low-risk investments, while the US stock market carries higher risks due to market volatility.
- Return potential: The US stock market offers potentially higher returns over the long term, but also comes with higher risks. Money market mutual funds and T-Bills typically offer lower returns, but with greater stability.
- Liquidity: Money market mutual funds and T-Bills are generally more liquid than stocks, meaning you can access your money more easily when needed.

It's essential to understand your personal financial goals, risk tolerance, and time horizon before investing in any of these options. It's also recommended to diversify your investments to minimize risk.
Took my time to read. These are very good ideas, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. Appreciated.
