What did u mean by hours you put in is non existent? If you are on work visa and after you have gained ilr status is it not same number of hours you can work if you choose to? Abi i am confused. Pls explain

All restrictions previously placed on your hours or type of employment are lifted. If you are a doctor and you want to work as a butcher, for 1000hrs a week, you are absolutely free to do so.

Abeg. Gist me about this agency thingy. Heard it from 4 people now.

Sorry o, I was away.

Basically Agency jobs pay more than normal NHS shift but you are not entitled to paid leave or holidays. I also don't think they have health insurance like the normal NHS would provide.

It's like a person who books a bolt ride from Ikeja to costain vs Using BRT for the same route, the charges would be different.

The fact remains, that you start earning money in this UK after ILR, because all those restrictions on how much hours you can put in would be non-existent.


Just keep your records clean and wait in hope!!!!

Peerielass:


No mind Oga Lexus with his rent money is dead money 🤣. Some white folks intentionally decide against buying a property or having too much savings in the bank because it makes them ineligible for State funds.

Well it depends on the individual's vision and plan ultimately. Some people don't want to live in UK forever sha.

At the end of the day, find out God's plan for your life and execute it.

Some days I wake up and ask myself, If this life ends today, will all these worries and chasing matter anymore?


I have refused to be under any pressure internal or external, no matter what is happening.


My only concern is to know Christ and His Cross. Any other additional blessing, I go thank God.

If house fall out, and I am able to afford, I buy.

But.....


Let no man trouble me, life is easy!!!

Peerielass:


When the time comes for you to go into residential care, your children will sell that your mortgage free property to fund your stay whereas Jimmy no house down the road that is renting will get a fully funded place from the Council 😜🤣. There are no hard and fast rules in life.

What a funny comment 😂 😂

slimanyd:


Lol. Another process . When I discover the loopholes in the cheating I read above about someone paying such amount monthly and the monthly mortgage paid by the real owner sef monthly no reach half of what tenants are paying. Its real dead money o. It pays to kuku pay 600£ monthly for 15 years than to give this useless LL the opportunity to dey rip person nah.

What exactly made a landlord useless??

That he saw ahead and bought his own house??


We should be beautiful with words I would say.

Oops wrong thread!!

Let me drop this two first. Please read it and come back for more.

1. Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.

This book is for stoics, or anyone that wants to strengthen their inner core, and awaken your internal strength. It makes you realise your power in every given situations, and helps you acts not only rationally, but ideally.

If you read and integrate the teachings of this book into your life, you will be a happy person generally. Things people do won't get you angry. You begin to see things from different and whole angles, and become self-restraint. It's the Bible for self control and to coexist graciously.

2.Analects by Confuscious.

This book is a collections and complications of the teachings of Confuscious. It focuses on self-leadership, sharpen your eyes to see things for what they are, and to be a refined man. Based on the theme of this book, I think it's for men (based on the "jonzi" term, though women can learn from it.

It teaches you to be moral, principled and reconcile your fleshy desire with what you could be. It's a book that calls forth the best in you, a call to excellence. It focuses on maxing out your potential, and to be the man everybody who have the fortune of meeting you grateful.

The audio books are on YouTubes, so you don't have to buy it. So maybe when you're driving or cooking, plug headphones and listen to it.

Oh thank you boss!!!

I am gonna get them.

Cheers mate!!

pansophist:


I read mostly philosophical books.
So book that stood the test of times. Read them. They are timeless and objective, and make you smart in an unconventional way.

The older the book, the better. So I do read books written thousands of years ago. The oldest book most people are religious books such as the Bible and Quran, but it could be more.

Please could you refer me to any of such titles?
I can grab 1 or 3 and add to my body of knowledge for the year.


😁

Thank you sir

pansophist:

You're right. I also do not see any benefits of Morocco in the ECOWAS. I strongly believed that their aim for joining ECOWAS was temporary, using the community as a tampon, and disposed when it's geopolitical aim with the western Sahara is accomplished.

I also don't see how Morocco can integrate into the community politically. Firstly, they share no border with any ECOWAS state. All ECOWAS countries can be reach by road from another without entering a non ECOWAS state. That will be impossible with Morocco, since you must cross via Mauritania or Algeria, which are non ECOWAS countries

They are geographically located in North Africa, and culturally very distinct. Their situation will be like the case of Mauritania, who left ECOWAS in 2000.

Also Morocco has far more industries and advance manufacturing that other ECOWAS countries, so Nigeria (as well as Ghana) can say bye to their regional influence. They will grab our market, its as simple as that.

Morocco for example makes clothes for inditex, a global clothing giant that owns brands such as Zara, Bershka, and Morocco is far ahead in solar energy. Morocco in ECOWAS will be like letting Germany in ECOWAS. They will seize the market.

I wonder what the administration of Morocco wad thinking. Do they honestly believed they will be accepted ? It's like Japan applying to join the EU.

Another highly cerebral comment.

You guys challenge me to read more.


Please what sort of books do you read??

LordAdam16:


That entire Morocco-ECOWAS fiasco was a geopolitical red herring.

Morocco is always on the lookout for opportunities to court international political capital for its claims in Western Sahara.

Nigeria rebuffed that advance because it'll get us entangled in sh*tty Middle Eastern politics. We have enough problems with Islamists to choose a side. Algeria, Iran, Qatar, and certain pacts in Egypt and the UAE would have made giving Morocco's claims legitimacy a very painful decision for us.

Like Oman, they're the outcasts of the Ummah. Historically, they've pursued unilateral moves because of deep suspicion of other forces in the Levant.

The development in Morocco is mostly to pacify citizens because the Monarchy has very powerful geopolitical foes. It is on that basis that they can't offer Nigeria the same visa privileges they extend to some West African states, lest our Islamists be used by Middle Eastern funders to destabilize Western Sahara and the ruling house's hold on power.

I like the Amazighs tho'. Proud, fascinating, fiercely independent, and politically deft people.

-Lord

Man you write with so much knowledge and depth!!! Come on.... pheeww...interesting.
