Travel / Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 6 by Selfkontrol: 2:41pm On Mar 31, 2023
Hello all, good evening. Pls I have a question. My wife and I had a bad experience during her last pregnancy and we lost the baby due to doctors negligence. Baby came out with birth asphyxia which was surprising because she attended all anti natal. Everything was fine till birth but we lost the baby some days after birth.

Now she will take in in few months time and I want her to deliver the child in the US.
I’ve never traveled out of Nigerian apart from Ghana same with her. Someone educate me on how I can get visa fast. The process , things I need etc. Do I state the reason of traveling? because I heard interview date is till 2024. Thanks

Only fools and bastards will believe all those online results that obi won.
You’re sick!! I was live and direct in my polling unit till 10pm and I can confirm that obi won in almost all the polling units in rivers state. The cap was too much. In my polling unit pdp and apc didn’t get up to 20 votes combined. Labor party got 325 votes. Most polling units ballot boxes and bvas where hijacked

Politics / Re: How My Journey To UK For A Job Turned To Organ Harvesting- Davido Nwamini Narrat by Selfkontrol: 5:25pm On Jun 29, 2022
Emaprince:
you are making up stuffs on your own.

You read him well. He said they promised him job. Not kidney donation.

He came to UK and they took him straight to the hospital. But UK doctors are not as curript as Nigerians..so the first thing to do is ask the guy if he is willing to donate the kidney..and the dangers involved.
if you read between the lines you would realise the boy is not a smart liar. a kidney receiver obviously needs a matching donor so how come he was taking to the uk without prior test in Nigeria to comfirm its compatible. the fact is, the boy is aware of the kidney donation but played a fast one on the senator.the senator made promises to the naive young man but I guess he had a rethink and probably took advice from people so he played the senator. either ways, the senator is going to jail.

My brother good day to you.
I was going through an old thread on Nairalanders about how people made their first millions.

And your input caught my attention among others.

I would like you to teach me what you did and some of the things that I can venture on.
More especially on the crypto stuff

I know something's could be easier with the right amount of info from an already experienced fellow, as some ideas fail because of lack of info.

Am not asking for money from you.
I simply need ideas and which you can tutor me on.
Am not a lazy person, as I know what efforts I've made towards my breakthrough, and still haven't found that path for me yet.

I'll appreciate your response thanks....
Good day bro. Well crypto is a fast way to make millions and also the fastest way to get broke if u invest in a coin and the coin under performed. There’s no rocket science about it. Sometimes u get lucky enough to invest in a good project very early and that could be the turning point for you.

Been doing this for years and I won’t tell you I’ve had smooth years. It’s all perseverance.
Another thing I’d like u to understand is that this is a risky venture. . I mean you don’t buy a token with alll your savings or money u need urgently. U must be comfortable enough before you invest or u get ur self stucked and probably sell at a huge loose when you need money urgently or broke. It should always be cash you don’t need for atleast 1 year or 2, and expect the worse too. It’s a risky business but highly rewarding. I mean HIGHLY ReWARDING.
For starters, get ur self familiarize on how to trade coins on exchanges like Binance, gate.io. Etc. u can download those apps on play store or AppStore then watch some YouTube videos on how to set them up. It’s easy just register ur acnt and set it up.
Be ready sha it involves a lot of money.

Don't even try it.

People especially extended families hate successful relatives like shit, especially when they are villagers and uneducated.

I'm not saying "village people" is real but they can literally poison you or infect you with a sickness that may lead to your death.

Just keep extending the monetary assistance.
guess I didn’t think about all these. Thanks for the advice. Mission aborted

What's that uoir name again, Mrselfcontrol

I didn't even read where you ever discussed this with your mum, that's by the way

You are not the best person in position to renovate that house

Your late dad would have stood for you to renovate the house but he is no more, so who will do the backing for you in the mist of those wicked unknown people there

What makes you think that you are capable of doing that without being harm even before you complete it

Why not wait for the senior ones to call a meeting then you make your contributions and let them face the work, Instead of you fronting yourself

The house belongs to all, so it's the duty of all adult working males of the family to do so not just you

Am quite sure your uncles are not really at peace with each other, so who among them is the one that you will appoint that will not extend the enmity to you

Why not play low and buy a land ams start building in the city where you can put for rentals or resides in

That house is not standing and looking unkept for nothing

Don't be surprised if you were told that any one that tries to renovate it, goes to the other side of life

Control yourself abeg and spear your life for the sake of your mum

In your mind, you think every one is happy with your progress ?
thanks sir for the advice. To think that I already made up my mind to go fix the house. I think I just woke up to reality. Thanks again. Plans canceled!!

garriAndsugar:
If your aim of building or completing the house is to take over the house later..don't try it.

But If you just want to build it out of your own freewill without having any other motives then you are free to do it.

About involving your uncles you can try but they might not contribute
Hell No I don’t even plan to even sleep there for one night. I’m just doing it cos I feel bad people still live there and also shameful because I can’t even go to that village with that house like that . No I I’m not involving them for financial help but to inform them.
Family / Thinking Of Renovating My Family Village House. by Selfkontrol: 10:29am On May 16, 2022
Good morning everyone. Last night I was on a thread about a guy contemplating to build his house first or complete his mother’s house. That topic is somehow related but completely different to mine so I want to share with people in the house for advice.

To cut the story short, I come from an extended poor family where even a good 3 square meal to some people is a big deal. I grew up in the village from childhood till I was in secondary school before my father died and I moved to live with my mother( my father had different wives that where not with him before he died.)
My mom gave me a good life. Better education
And all and now I’m 30, doing well in life. I mean very well.
My father has 5 brothers all still alive. They are all managing life and even their children not doing so well. Though I have tried to assist most of them the little way I can

Now, the family house in the village that my grand father build. Same house I grew up as a child is a complete mess. Its so bad that I can’t even drink water there currently. It’s to sad all my uncles could not renovate their fathers house. I don’t blame them though. They are not doing well. About two of my uncles still live in that house that the roof is almost falling and sometimes I feel ashamed because that’s where I grew up. I can’t even take anyone there because it would be too embarrassing for me. Due to this I haven’t been to the village for long

Few years ago, the most senior uncle did foundation at the back of the house and raised it up a bit but couldn’t complete it since then and even all the brothers can’t help. Now I feel I’m in a better place to atleast help complete it. I already made up my mind and was traveling this month end for it. Even though it would be a gradual process. ( just to lay few blocks to lintel then roof it.) until I read that thread of that young man and some comments made me think twice.
Pls experience elders in the house ur input is needed thank you.
I want to know if I’m making the right decision. If I need to involve all my uncles even though they are all not in unity.
It’s a bit confusing because my father is late. If he was a life I know it would be easier. I would just put him in charge of the project.

Now, my major reason of doing this is because I feel bad people are still living in that building that would soon collapse and also for the fact I grew up there and in my current position I can’t do anything about that house.

Business / Re: How Old Were You When You Made Your First Million?, And How? by Selfkontrol: 8:59pm On Jan 30, 2022
2018 was exactly when this thread was created and I can remember vividly how I spent my whole night reading peoples success stories. back then I barely had 100k in my account not to talk of making 1 million. damn!! how time flies. Today the story is different. I've been involved in crypto trading back then when this thread was created but as a newbie. I just knew few things. I know I had a few coins back then but they all dipped and I didn't understand the Market very well.

2021 I broke even after investing in a coin I didn't think would yield a good profit till after 3 years. (Shiba Inu). my people I blew. after just 2 months I checked my account and behold $100k with an investing of maybe $500. crazy right. I was part of those that cashed out silly profit from that coin even tho I sold too early. if I had left it for a month xtra, it would have been a $million but I thankGOD for everything. since then my life has never remained the same as I have been going higher.

You could buy 5 sound cars and give them to 5 trusted people and you will earn 500k monthly from them.
You may also invest in smart home, or luxury interior design services.

thank you for your input. I really don’t buy the idea of bolt. I know it’s a little lucrative but that’s if u have good people as drivers. So many uncertainties in it.

We’re being govern by stupid and backward leaders. For those trading bitcoin pls always use peer to peer for your transactions. That way you’re dealing with an individual selling to you and not directly from the bank. They can only flag it if they know the source of the funds. Always use remitano and Binance peer to peer for buying and selling btc. Nonsense and ingredients

Well,most of the goods comes in from china.But there are also some from Indians too and America depending on the choice from customers and hospital.
Again,the medical lines are divided into two in the local market dominated by Igbos.There are those who are strictly into drugs, injections,vaccines,etc and there those into medical equipment like beds,IVs , ventilators, test kits,etc

The knowledge for it isn't easy trust me, especially for the first category because there thousands of drugs in the market.

But those who study courses that are in line with medicals will find it easy to do this business.Unlioe my other siblings,I didn't do such courses,they did and it's paying off for them.
thanks bro. I think medical equipments will be better and easier for me. I will make more research on it.

Health / Re: Stubborn Rashes On The Head: How Can I Treat This? (Disturbing Photo) by Selfkontrol: 2:13am On Apr 06, 2020
Serious matter.
Op I understand how your brother feels because I have been in same situation years ago. Mine was just a single spot but keeps growing everyday. I bought lots of drugs and applied lots of things but nothing. Lasted me for two years. I had on several occasions cut it with razor blade but it kept growing back and it was just too embarrassing. It’s a bacteria infection that’s in the bloodstream and needs to be treated from the inside. Don’t bother applying anything on it. what took care of mine was azithromycin. You can easily get it at the pharmacy. Don’t bother going to the hospital because you would end up wasting money everyday.
Get azithromycin one pack and finish it. It would dry up within days and you can peel it off and that it. You can repeat the dozes the next week. After that come back and thank me. Peace
Education / Re: Right Steps To Study For A Masters Degree Abroad by Selfkontrol: 10:14am On Mar 07, 2020
Try to persuade them to set you up for business. A masters degree is not a road map to a good job unless maybe you don’t plan on coming back to Nigeria. But if you’re still coming back to Nigeria, you would still be looking for that same job unless your parents have better connect. That money to spend on masters is enough to set you up in Nigeria.
But if you still want to travel for your masters then Australia and Canada is your best shot but it’s best you go through the Permanent residency route depending on your course to make things much easier for you.
There are bunch of information on travel section. Go through Canada and Australia thread and you will have enough information to kickstart your journey. Goodluck
