So why haven't you given Oyb a chance?

A chance on his railway salary? I'm trying to build a financial empire and it'll not be built on [b]ideas [/b]alone. Stop pulling me back abeg.

Yes he will, I know many Warren Buffets at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre. Heard there are some Dangotes and Otedolas at Yaba left too Grin Grin

Funmi your influence run far and wide[/b]

Yeah, Greater Funmi for better life!!!!!

[size=14pt]@RedHotChick

You seem to want a man prepared to fund your breast implants,botox and liposuction regimen [/size]

Naaaa, I can afford those things but am very tomboyish and natural, so no artificial thing for me. Even my hair is natural afro(although i've been doing dreads for over a year now). I want a man that has a sense of commitment and thinks with his head and not his 3rd leg.

If you get a woman half as intelligent as sheniqua,you're made

What if he gets a woman half as HOT as Funmi, won't he turn to Warren Buffet?

I prefer to remain with those who still have their heads screwed on tightly. Over time i've noticed that not only are they more beautiful, they have much more than just their bodies to offer.

Whatever, You must have been reading too much "Songs of _poor Solomon". First impression matters a lot.

Me and you?? Are u out of your freaking mind??
The residue i give out to various charity organisations is enough to keep u off the poverty bracket for life.
You won't have to milk cows ever again. . . . . . . .Comparing the ALMIGHTY POUND to the weak dollar. . . . You must be spastic!!!

Whatever!! whether it's pounds, yen, dollar or naira, it's the quantity that matters and not the quality.

One thing i've learnt never to do . . . don't ever spend above your means to please a woman. If she's the type who wants to go shopping 24/7, likes dinner outside . . . dump her fast before she ruins you much quicker than the iPhone you just bought.

Naaa, how will you impress a classy chic? You want to remain with low profile ones huh?

The idea of spending the greater part,if not your entire working life living on credit is ridiculous.

Some Nigerians groom their credit, spend over $1m dollars, bequeath their stuff when they get old and retire to Ogbomosho or die with the debt. Bankers are blood sucking vampires!!!

Who are the men? Youse??
Buncha clueless cretinous cold-blooded vermins. Cheesy Grin

I have always known u were a dyke though.
When a babe milks cows in Nebraska, drives humungous trucks and carry a piece. . . . her status becomes SHIM.

I'm safer from you that way because you can't afford me.

when they are toasting, they will buy you expensive thing. now maybe that guy used cc to buy that phone. what someone wan do with that expensive phone, i don't know.

get a free phone and pay for service jo.

me sha, i'd like to be in the lady's shoe. Grin a guy must get me expensive thing sha. do cheap guys, commot for road Cheesy

roflmao; welcome to a man's world

I may have to get a restraining order to keep your ugly ass at a distance.
Whatz all these analogies. . . . . . . . .
You couldn't pick any of your 600 vagrant boy/fs. . . . . .Why Hannibal??

This boy [/b]just came back from the brothel with Klimepet and is his mother is not home so he comes to nairaland to discuss with [b]men.

Are you telling me
You know I'm older than most of you here
My eyes have seen things.

I have seen a doctor and his wife who literally live from hand to mouth despite the fat salaries.
Most people are deep in debt up to their eye balls and living pay check to pay check just because they want to look rich.
who are they deceiving?
I don't ride a benz or Jag and at the same time I don't spend sleepless nights wondering how to pay for them monthly.

I know a doctor friend that is not married. She has over $300K in school loans, bought a condo for $250K and an infiniti FX 45 for $35K. Damn, this girl cannot wait for her pay check every two weeks to meet up on her bills. She bought some of her furnitures from bang and olufsen and they are all financed. Life is hell for her because even her fiancee is getting worried that she may end up filing for bankrupcy in America.

@Queenisha

People in the Anglo-Saxon world-US,Britain,Australia,e.t.c- are knee deep in debt. In the UK,household debt surpasses savings by about $5trillion! People seem to regard debt as income.

Can you live above debts in America? How especially if you are not a Nigerian politician?

excellent post Tayo-D

I doubt that the GO is getting the jet for self aggrandizement, if you need to travel far and wide as part of your ministry and it is more economical to get a Jet than to continuously fork out for plane tickets all over the place coupled with delays and what not, then it makes sense.

People will continue to say there is poverty in the land, RCCG is doing a great deal to help with that - but the primary mission of spreading the gospel should not be lost.

I don't care how much I love Adeboye but getting a jet is outrageous besides this news came from a tabloid and may not be factual. Common people, are we blinded by religion? Even mega million dollar pastors like Joel Osteen or Creflo Dollar has no private jets. They still travel around the world in a commercial plane. The pope that is the president of vatican flies in private Alitalia . What happened to the examples kept by early churches like building schools, hospitals etc and not private jets. Redeem is not a liberal pentecostal church and shouldnt allow themselves in this stupid idea. Kumiyi seems to be the only credible pastor in Nigeria now.

We have these friends here in the USA that live in a mansion literally.
My hubby and I were shocked when the man called and asked to borrow money from us to refinance and cash out equity on his home and I'm talking of borrowing an amount less that $2,000.
How can you live in a house you can't afford?
Go there in the summer,they can't even afford to turn on the AC to heat the mansion.
I'll rather live in a modest 3/4 bedroom that I can heat and cool comfortably that live in a 7 BR house and wear socks and and winter jackets indoors to watch TV in the winter.

Roflmao. Some prosperity pastors preach against your mentality by the way. Their philosophy is "if your father in heaven is rich, why belittle him by living poor". That's why some Nigerian bankers cannot save because they attend these churches, make shopping trips to UK and put their kids in primary schools they can literally afford.

If i can afford a $500 phone i definitely will get it. Why make all that money and refuse to spend it?
Saving is good, but the goal of saving is not to impoverish yourself but to provide a safety net.

How much is the latest iPhone 3G now

Good but you have to buy WHAT you REALLY NEED. What's the point of buying a sophisticated phone when all you do with it is make a call and answer one?

Child bearing is not an illness.
Most women can work till almost the delivery day and after baby is born,most can go back after 2-3 months.
That word housewife ought to be expunged from the mentality of every woman.
Put the kids in day care with other children,they won't die

Yes; but you need to understand that some women are gagged by lack of education and the mentality of the bull they call their husband. Some men in naija will rather die than allow their wives work and the women agree so the marriage can work but when they get pushed aside, they start screaming holy mary mother of God.

Why buy a $500 phone when there's a $189 phone? nonsense!

My present cell phone is abot $200 and I've not used the damn camera for once but i've sworn never to spend my money on any camera cell phone or PDA again. i rather stick with the free ones they give me.

who be DaPhoenix again? It seems banning fever has caught nearly all the nairaland females - from Hotfunmi to Osisi to Morenike to TOH. Grin Grin

[b]Oyb has room for second and third wife, I think Ruby and Gamine should applyhis bedroom is nicknamed Paris[/b].

Gamine will castrate him in 2 minutes and use all his gratuity to shop prada.

That's why a woman must make and have her own money.
I don't care what her husband makes
as long as she is able bodied,she must work and have her bank account.
Marriages that ended in divorce started with "you may kiss the bride"
so that ifhe starts with any mago mago,you can leave without fear of starvation

Good but sometimes child bearing and raising kids may make a woman stay home as a housewife thats why I rather let my husbaand be a stay at home husband than funmilayo doing it. I gotta cover my ass.

I bet he is using his saved riches to race lamborghinis, have a flutter in Monaco and having Bond Lady lookalikes at his
beck and call

Yep!!! Never place your bet on a man even if he's a pastor.

that is y i said i want to eat it now and clean my mouth,sharp girl no be thief abeg

Go girl otherwise you may be saving for wife number 2.

They rule of thumb is living below your means and saving at least 30% of your salaries.
If that means riding a Totyota Camry instead of a Benz so be it.
I'm not saying people should starve and wear raggedy clothes but I don't have to compete with Naija women in gatherings.
Most people that show money especially here in America have no savings.
Absolutely none.

@Bold, very very true.

On the issue of saving with a man, there will always be a clause there because men are cats. You may toil and suffer to save and he comes up with a 2nd wife idea one bright sunday morning especially when you are resident in Nigeria. Trusting a man as long as his peewee is still alive and active is as good as raising a cub and hoping it wont turn to a raging beast.

what toys u talking about, and if its what i'm thinking, how do u rate em.

Do you expect OYB's toys to be valued the same as pataki's toy?

As long as I eat well,dress well and ride a modest vehicle I'm content.
I'll rather monitor our investments grow than spend money stupidly.
Seeing our statements give me the biggest kick more than anything

Good point but not growing your investments with your blood. again, what is a modest car especially when your so called lover exposed you to a certain cadre in the society?

Assuming you are a diplomat and your husband makes over $2M/PA as a neurosurgeon, what will you be doing living in Brooklyn or china town especially when you keep friends in that class?

I am not saying he is a thieving politician. I am only scared you will turn him into one with your farting behind, heavy self and Short stature.

OYB has potentials to make money only that he lacks vision. I am here to provide the vision for him to better his life. Yours is different, you lack charisma, vision, ability etc, which woman will agree to clear up that mess? You better stick to being gay.

Funmi farts again,

@topic

abeg i don talk am,funmi if u want them stingy and poor men tell me now ooooo,make i carry u go deliverance Grin Cheesy because poor men don reign pass for our mama and papa days,now na computerized world we dey,so we need enough computerized money to chop and clean mouth

I'm tired of OYB and his 50K per month salary. i think i need a prophet to deliver me from his handsome and suave arms but na handsome i wan chop?.

Who is Queenisha? Is that a ghetto form of queen?

i can see pataki was right . . .considering the fact that 90% of 'successful' nigerian men are the likes of babangida, ibori, odili, etal - i can just see their wives giving em hints. wonder what fani kayode and borisade's wives whispered into their ears Undecided.

add one zero to this 190 million. .

OyBobo is at it again. Sweetheart, i know you are a railway engineer but i'm okay with that as long as you follow my masterplan on how to add zeros and make us some money. Are you not tired of wearing Aba made shoes?

warren buffet is the second richest man in the world and the dude does not eat hotel food. cause of room service costs.maybe he's broke too. . .

wonder what kind of paris hilton type chicks assume that being disciplined means you're a broke ass.

i can just see them now- you have money for tokunbo- they insist on tear rubber - you have money for tear rubber they insist on SUV. you have money for suv - they insist on hummer. May god save us from these long throat chicks

Don't mind Warren, his car never break down for Ijebu Ode before make i see whether him no go chop mama put.

poor assed dudes should be burned down to ashes,its berra dey die in their poverty dan suffer unnecessarily



they need to be scraped out of this planet earth Grin we don't want them ag

Pataki, hannibal, Sly make una take cover because this chic is out to exterminate y'all like the Jews. Are these men responsible for being poor by the way?

The only woman that easily comes to me mind is none other than that Funmi of a girl

I stand behind OYB, so are you saying that OYB is a thieving politician with pot belly?
