docdes: True. I was saying same yesterday but many people said I was simping. And, I'm not also in support of Natasha because I know how manipulative her type can be. It's not every issue a woman has including harassment that she brings to the public. Also remember that you may side her and she may be wrong. Most importantly, she can do a similar thing to you. |

Nature does not discriminate based on age.. Nature doesn't, but a woman would never respect a man of about the same age with her not to talk of one she's older than. And respect from a woman is extremely important in marriage. |

okerekingsley90: Hi brother. Can you help suggest an inverter for me. I just need to power about 6 bulbs laptop and fans in the night I already have a big generarot but to on am everyday na stress due to noise and maintenance I can't suggest an inverter, but if you need 24 hours light, a 3.5kva inverter preferably hybrid inverter and at least two big batteries along with solar panels would be okay. I don't use a generator again both at home and in the shop. I get at least four ice block daily to feed the deep freezer in the shop from the deep freezer at home. So sales is good as drinks are cool all through the day. |

I hope they get over this experience strong and move on to do better for themselves onwards.
As for the pimps and madams that traffick and force other people's children into prostitution, while you keep yours at home and even raise them up with the money you made from such biz.., hmmmmm.
Your own children will bring so much pains to your life that you will end up commiting suicide out of misery.
I can't believe some people are actually laughing and teasing this girls sef. No empathy again?
Imagine coming from a poor home, someone came and took your sister of 12-14years with promise of job. And, this is someone you all trust.., only to get to city and force your sister into prostitution. It's absolutely wrong to give out your kids or wards to anyone to train for you, and more worse is when you don't see this child at least every week. |

ibechris: Na men dey like to suffer.
When u are in your 20's start early and awake ur investment mindset.
If u can do this early enough,at your 40's ur passive income should be enough to take care of your family expenses while u continue to grind with life.
I learnt this technique at an early age...not from my father but from someone whom I lived with years back.
Example is. If u have 30million,invest it for one year,use the proceed to settle all family expenses for one year,after that u can rest and be happy. Not all the time,waiting for salaries that isn't enough.
May his soul rest in peace and may this serve as a lesson for all our able young men especially our teenagers.
For those who may not find this feasible,this theory is working for me and u can always adjust it to suit ur figures especially if u think the figure is too high. remember na advice ooooooh. Let's just pray to have money. I also invest some money. But it's not easy for over 95% of people out there. So don't think they are lazy. They may really not have enough. |

[quote author=Bobodee09 post=133766456]Most times I don't like arguing this things cos it like you women never be accountable for anything. So having those kids was actually only the man decision  The woman didn't want them to be 4 ,the man was constantly raping her. They just gave birth to the children last night and since he went broke due to the economy he should killed 2 out of those kids so he can take of wife and the remaining 2 according to you. It very easy to know someone like you isn't married. No this fact today, left to most men just having 1 or 2 kids is enough but it is women who clamor for more kids in marriage.[/quote Fact. A poor man in 2025, still earning salary, may have been rich in 2022. But due to the rapidly deteriorating economy, he is unable to make ends meet, even though his salary or income may have been increased. |

skywalker240: It is what it is
Even this year now we are battling how to make payments for school fees, house rent around the corner, the expenses keeps building up
Most times when I get home from work, after taking my bath, i just pretend that am sleeping and take a quiet place to reflect on what and what to do to improve the condition to favour
Life goes on
Nowadays, I don't work myself up, elders over here say
"Na the one WEY you chop for your Belle, na im be your own"
So most times when am at work and I see anything that i long to put in my stomach or for my satisfaction, I buy it, even if it means telling my wife a lie
Try to rest mostly on Sundays and when you get any chance off, lock yourself in the room and sleep
I'll never forget what A Man in his late 60s told me almost 10 years ago
He said if you as a family Man fall down and die today, the children you left behind will still achieve their goals and life purposes and yes they'll survive even without you. Correct statement. I wake up daily by 4:30am all through the year to strategize on how to put food on the table. It's not funny. Once in a while, take yourself out and eat what you want to eat and buy yourself something important as life would continue if you are not there. Most importantly, try to sleep where possible daily 8 hours or thereabouts. Really rest. |

Bobodee09: Is so bad that has a married man you can't even buy yourself new wears.
Throughout last year I couldn't get myself a new set of jeans trouser even tho I needed it badly despite having the money. All the money I made last year 90% when into paying bills and household expenses. It so crazy how you has a man you will have over 200k in your acc and you be scared to even buy yourself something of 10k cos of fear of the unknown. In all of this my wife and kids still has many clothes they haven't worn I paid for you.
Last weekend my wife bought herself over 10 new shirt and when I saw it I reminded her how I couldn't even buy myself new jean....she told me nah me no wan buy nah. It really hurt me cos whatever money I make the family expenses come first before my own personal needs but it isn't same for women.
I just feel marriage is design for men to suffer honestly. People just taking from you and no one really care about what you need. It's a fact. But as a father and husband, we must set aside some money to take care of ourselves so what happened to the man in the story, doesn't happen to us. |

smasher1: It's people with such behavior that does such to their husband. My friend a man has four kids, the first about to graduate. The wife is asking for the fifth. Now, the main issue is to keep on having money, because, a middle class family or person in 2023 is currently poor. And a rich man in 2023 that the income is not increasing astronomically like the inflation can not meet up in 2025. I had twins 2022 and the cost of feeding the last born 2024 and clothing her is four times the cost of feeding one person two years earlier. So if the income is not there, one would become poor. |

the father in-law is still alive but the wife, sister and her sisters husband called him that they will be coming to his place to return the bride price, I asked him , who did u give the bride price to? he said the father, I told him to ignore them until the father in-law calls u or ur father before u go and collect it.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO U ALL If they are legally married, let him go for the legal divorce. I don't see anything important about the bride price. After all, under African law, he can marry several women. |

wonder233: Feminists and simps will not like this. They are already frothing at the mouth with comments above. I commend the man. It takes tremendous courage to overcome the onslaught of a scorned woman. It is especially harder as people outside who are not informed think it is a petty thing, that a woman is a fragile harmless entity and divorcing her is easy. They don't know of the physical, psychological warfare you have to withstand from a highly dangerous, vicious and manipulative species. Many men just simply fold and keep taking the shyyt. In addition to this, spiritual warfare is involved too. If you are not strong, she would win. |

She already had that 'possible-expansion feature' in those 2018 pictures but my guy went ahead
The guy did what her father couldnt do
In all, its good to marry tall women. I guess she'd look different if she was very much taller than this What matters most is for the man to continue to love her as she is. |

shortgun: Solar system is just like a owning a car. If you don't have the money to do it properly, don't waste your little savings on any cheap inverter. Solar systems are very inefficient, you need to spend big to enjoy any benefits. Even with a 5kva system at home, i still ration power between my basic appliances. Forget what marketers will tell you, it's all a strategy to make sales. I use solar panels and inverter without electricity for over a month. You can't on what you put on in the day overnight. It would drain the batteries. So put off appliances latest 4, 5, 6pm and use bulbs and rechargeable standing fan overnight. |

TenQ: 1. Too bad, you bought a TOY 2. Sellers of Inverters will sweet talk you into bad purchases Let me break it down for you 1. Your One Panel 18V 30W: Means that if the efficiency is 100%, as long as the sun is up, the maximum load it can carry is 30W between 9am and 5pm (8 Hours) If there is no NEPA (Mains Electricity), it means you can use 60W of power for 4 Hours OR 120W for 2 Hours 2. Your battery capacity of12V 12AH Lead-acid battery Mean that at full capacity, it can store at 100% efficiency 144W of Energy it means that at best you can use up to 144W of Energy for 1 Hour OR 72W of Energy for 2Hours 3. Your Inverter of 220V 150W. Mean that at 100% Efficiency, you cannot plug loads up to 150W without blowing up the inverter. This is the maximum power you can draw from it if your battery capacity will allow it.
Now, you are driving it with a load of 95W OX fan Laptop at 65W
Let me shock you that the efficiencies of solar panel that is properly optimised is less that 50% from the rating Your Battery can have 80% Efficiency only when brand new, as you use it (especially when overloading it) the efficiency can drop to 40%
So, don't use your inverter for your fan or laptop, restrict it to giving you lights at night. Don't even bother augmenting with extra panels or batteries because it will still waste your money
Recommendation: Even though costly 1. Two Deep cycle Batteries of at least 200AH capacity 2. Three to Four Solar panels 3. Charge controllers rated for the four panels with a power not less that 1200W 4. Inverter (Sine Wave) of at least 1500W (Much higher is better) Less is a waste of investment
My Small Advice! I didn't want to tell him the truth. This is a toy inverter like a toy car can't carry anything to anywhere. I would advise minimum of 3kva for anyone that wants an inverter for home with at least two big batteries. For shop or office, minimum of one big battery to be used from 10am to 4pm is okay for bulb, fan preferably standing fan and charging of phones, POS etc. |
