It's good to be good, if you are a bad person I am sure you could have been scared why those men were calling you.
One thing I have learned in life is that hood deeds always bring reward, it might not happen immediately but it will surely happen when you least expect it, so keep been a good person because it will always pay.
Romance › Re: What Do Men Benefit From Marriage by Sandralight(f): 9:53am On Jul 03, 2023
Tunde835:
When women get married they get someone who provides for them, they have kids that grow up to provide also till their old age. When a man is married he only toils, sacrifices until when the day comes to get paid all the love and attention is diverted to the mother that's why men die earlier. Society doesn't care about men. So my question is why would a man get married?
Most Men dont bond with their Children, that's why the children give more love to their mothers than fathers, and some Nigeria men are the worst, you will see in America where when the woman gives birth, the man will help in feeding and taking care of the baby but in Nigeria everything is left for the woman, even to change diaper the man cannot do it, they just think it's just to provide money but money is not love and affection.
The children grow up been more comfortable with their mothers even when the fathers comes home, all they do is Scold and treat the children like they are in a military camp "Have you done your assignment" " have you done this" " have you done that" the children can't even laugh with their dad or talk with their dad.
The child upbringing is left with the mothers so when the child grow up, he or she naturally focused more on the mother than the father because that who he loves more.
Fathers should remember that for love to be strong, it should be nurtured, just because you gave birth to the children doesn't mean they will love you like that if you dont nurtured the love.

There was one man that lost his wife and they had 2 little girls, one was 9 the other was 7, the man was working a very flexible job but still the man pack the children to stay with his dead wife siblings because he couldn't take care of his own children, so tell me if tomorrow the children are not close to their father, people will say Men dont get love and they are only money making machines

Sirchiboy:
There was this guy back then In school.
He hardly come to school but one of the bigger boys in school.
I was the most brilliant boy in my department.
Him and his boys normally come to me during exam time so I can tell them answers.
I will meet this guy to tell me how I will be making money like him but he will tell me later.
Do you know after the final exam.
This guy and his friends blocked me and didn't talk to me again.
The sensible people that I would have followed in school, I didn't follow them again.
I was foolishly following those animals thinking they will teach me how to fish but I ended up being used.
To be honest both of you played each other lol, you were only helping him so you could get his ideas on making money while he was using you to pass his exams.
Sometimes people think they are smart but they dont know the person they are trying to deceive is smarter

My dear, Riches alone can't bring you true happiness. It's because you most likely in Nigeria that's why you think like this. If you were abroad your thinking will change. Do you think all the millionaires and billionaires in this world are happy? You never jam depression which doesn't discriminate whether you are rich or poor. When you have God and Jesus nothing else matters reason Jesus said, seek first the kingdom of God and every other thing will be added. True happiness comes from God whether rich or poor.
I think we are diverting from the issue, of course God is the one that bring true happiness.
What I am simply trying to say is that money brings happiness, it makes you content, someone with money can afford all the comfort life have to offer unlike if you are poor.
Like I said in my first writeup "Money may not bring happiness but poverty never brings anything"
It is always better to be rich than poor and one thing you should know is everyone are not the same, many people get happiness from having a good life, from been rich just because some rich people get depressed doesn't change the fact that poor people get depressed too.

Even many Churches nowadays preach prosperity, praying their members get money because once you are rich life is easier to live, been truly focused on God is easier.
I have many things I would to say but let's just leave it like that, you are taking this to a religious level and I dont think I am ready for that

Salvation
Both the rich and the poor all fight for salvation, I know people are going to go with the rich man poor man story in the bible in which the poor man went to heaven and the rich man went to hell.
Rich men are also Christian too and they serve God too.
Tell me from this example of which one of this 2 persons is going to hell
One is rich, have money, dont have much bother in his life and serve God will all his heart
And the other is frustrated poor, poverty make him to steal, deceive and lie just to afford the basic necessity.
So who is going to hell.
Now I am not saying the poor will go to hell, I am just saying the devil can easily manipulate the poor all in the bid for money than the rich.
So basically everyone fights for Salvation but the fight is easier when you are rich because you wont be tempted to sell your soul because of peanuts like Esua sold his birth right because of porridge
Lack of money leads to a lot of sin

Money can only give you comfort but not happiness.

Money is a human craving that never ends.
So what's your definition of happiness??
Like tell what will make you happy in this world, you can list 3 things because you guys keep talking about "comfort, comfort" then tell me what makes you happy

MrBrownJay1:
money can buy you a COMFORTABLE life, but comfort is not the automatic connection to happiness...

ask any billionaire with an incurable illness if they A) are happy or B) wouldnt change place with a poor person right now (in exchange for good health)?

but hey, to most poor people today, MONEY IS INDEED THE SOLUTION TO THEIR PROBLEMS, and as they are hungry/broke, they certainly believe that money is the solution to their immediate problems, thus they believe that "money = happiness".
So the poor dont get incurable diseases??
The likelihood of the poor dying from basic malaria is higher then the rich dying from serious disease.
If a rich man have kidney damage, he can use his money to get the best care in the world and even buys kidney and be healthy unlike the poor man that will like died because he couldn't even afford dialysis which will be hundred of thousand weekly even before thinking of how to pay for kidney transplant.

Whether rich or poor, many sick people will rather exchange lives with healthy people but the rich get the upper hand in terms of medical care

YinkaOlusesi16:
If you have all the money in the world and you are infertile, you can't produce & you can't have sex, is that an happiness?
If it's infertility, there are many treatment for that and also there is another thing called "Adoption" it's just that many Nigerians dont know how to love other people children, that's why if they can't give birth, they just rather remain childless than adopting.
Also the poor can also be infertile and been poor and infertile is surely worst right.
Romance › Can Money Buy Happiness by Sandralight(op): 2:48pm On Jul 01, 2023
I saw a saying today when browsing Twitter and someone said
"Money may not buy happiness but poverty never buys anything"
It really resonates with me because of the constant saying that money can't buy happiness.
What exactly can make you happy?? Do you know money is mostly the root cause of sin, many people sin today because of the search for money, young guys enter into frauds while young girl are into hookup because of the desperation of money, if they have money, they wont enter that lifestyle.

So my question is "What exactly is the happiness that money can't buy"
Because my happiness at the moment is getting my own place, there is one thing I have been having in my head for months now, with 250k I will get my own place and leave where I am staying now, getting my own place will give me so much happiness, I wont feel sad or depressed so yes money can buy happiness.
When you are sick you can afford the best medical care, you can buy anything you want, you can travel anywhere you want to go, so why are people saying money can't buy happiness?

There was one lady I know years back, this lady was travelling when she got into an accident and injured her Spinal cord, the doctor said they can fixed the problem but they have to fly her to Lagos for the surgery and the money for the surgery is big, the lady family couldn't afford it so they didn't do the surgery and they took her home, this lady was paralyzed from the neck down, couldn't use her hands or legs, mother called a lot of pastors because that was her only hope, the pastors came and pray for healing but the lady remained where she is and she remained like that for 8 years, can you imagine spending 8 years of your life on the bed not moving and know this is your life, even if she had the money for the surgery it was too late and she was paralyzed forever.
After 8 years the lady mother died who was her primary care taker and nobody could help her, after some months of her mother passing she died herself, maybe she prayed for death or others prayed for her death because nobody cried when she died, they were mostly relieved, nobody want that burden of taking care of her on their shoulders.
So yes Money buys happiness, if the lady had money she will be living her life to the fullest, poverty is a disease that never helped anyone.

So when anyone says money can't buy happiness I wonder what sort of happiness they are saying because once you can afford good food, have your own house, good medical care, you have no worries in your life and yes I do know the rich also have their problems but they are not living hand to mouth, they wont be scared of an emergency because they know they can handle it.
Now that this country of ours is getting worse by the day and prizes of goods are increasing with salary remaining constants, our poverty level will just be increasing.
Poverty is like been in a free fall and hoping, struggling, hoping someone gives you a lifeline but you just keep falling and falling until you hit the ground and it's over.

Anyway I am just ranting.
Have a nice Saturday
Romance › Re: If You Know This Book And You're Yet To Marry Check Yourself(pictures) by Sandralight(f):
I read a similar group of stories then, I dont know whether it's this one or something else, I remember one of the stories, it goes like this

So there was this group of friends that always hang out, so one day one of the friend let's say his name is David told them that, he can sleep without heat or blanket during the cold season, that is body is very strong to withstand the cold and he can leave his windows open and sleep without any source of heat, his friends laugh and said it was impossible for him to do that and he will catch a cold or freeze to death, so they decided to do a wager, if David can sleep without any source of heat throughout the night, they will give him a prize but if he can't do it, he will have to prepare a feast for all of them.

So the day was planned and David really slept the night, opening the windows and without any source of heat, his friends came very early in the morning to see whether he really did it, David showed them everything and told him his body is really strong and he can survive the cold but one of his friends saw a candle burning and they ask David about it, David said he used the candle to see and his friends latch on that, that a candle is a source of heat and that candle kept david warm through out the night, so David failed the challenge and he have to prepare a feast for them.

On the day of the feast, all his friends came early and David told him the food will be ready soon, they waited for hours and hours and David kept reassuring them that the food will soon be ready, after waiting for so long they all went to the kitchen to see the food that was taking too long and to their surprise they saw that the food was been prepared by a single candle and there was no way the food was going to be done, David came after them and told them that
If you believe a single candle can warm me throughout the very cold night then they must believe a single candle can prepare their meal lol

hhh audio 6 figures you sabi lie small small. You are right nobody can deny that I'm handsome n confident n smart. U see if not for your brother do u think u can make it? U r a shop errand boy but u come here making mouth.

I go shock you one day I will come here n show u my achievements.

Come I will help u with beautiful Hausa/ Fulani babe I know is your problem right now
Why dont you stop all this, first of all it's not by force to give you money.
Someone might decide to help you but the way you are acting will drive people away, you keep attacking and attacking him because he doesn't want to go low like you and insult you, so REST and move on.
You tried everything from reverse psychology to acting humble and then insulting him all because you want money from him but since it's obvious the guy will never give you anything move on.
You didn't work any money in his pocket and he doesn't know you from Adam, so you are just causing setback to yourself with your entitlement behaviour.

Good evening my dear sister. It all started 3 days ago when I sent someone money. I just to be silent about it. But he came out and be saying that I am fake. Even the first person I wanted given didn't believe me. So in order to clear everyone's doubt , I sent 20k to a random person and pasted the receipt for sometime before deleting it. They reason I posted the receipt was because of his doubting Thomas tendency which I didn't fancy at that point. So I blurred the guys name and my name and pasted it.

Ever since then, he has been plastering my life, which I already told him that I don't have anything for him. He calls me different kid of names ; A simp, Mumu and many more. Which I didn't reply back in an abusive manner.

He is the most entitled person I have ever seen in this nairaland. I have never given any female money. Buy he keeps telling me I'm after puxxy n all that. Please let's forget about him, I use am the catch cruise. I came back from work early today, that's y I have been replying. He saint me messages in the morning when I was at work.
Lol, just ignore him and he will stop disturbing you.
Did he think you are a kid that will fall for his cheap manipulation.
Someone that really need help dont act that way.
I hope you have a good night.

I thought about safety too. Reason I got a licensed shotgun. But it's been over 3 years and I have never had a reason to use it on people, except when hunting. The only problem I face is the road to my cabin. It's terrible, especially when it rains, and no access to transport. So I have to always trek.
Well I am happy that you found your own personal haven not many people get to do that.
Stay safe out there.

You actually can, although not very common here in Nigeria. I am in Lagos, but I was lucky enough to find a piece of land in Ogun, and it was so cheap cause it was in the middle of nowhere. I had help building the cabin, and it was close to a running river. It was perfection. I installed solar, a water filter, and a couple of other necessities. Every 3 to 4 months, I retire to the woods and stay a couple of weeks then return to civilisation. I am a hardcore introvert who enjoys his own company, so staying two weeks alone with my dog is heaven. I hate people.
Wow I am an introvert too and I raise my hat for you since you are the king of introverts, but are you not scared??
Like Staying in somewhere isolated in Nigeria where security agencies dont protect citizen, like do you have a way of protecting yourself if you meet bad guys or something.
I dont think any lady can try this because it will really be unsafe, that's me tho, you should enjoy yourself
