We tend to underrate good life and this is why we live the way we are in this country Naija. We don’t have a minimum acceptable and thus the leaders are unmoved to do something really “awesome”. What I will love to see happen is a legislative framework for holding leaders accountable; Naija don’t ask questions or account from leaders, so they always get away with it. Now to the main discourse, the suspension will help address the required pressure on the roads thus eliminating or reducing pot holes. Do you think it will cost more to have this over Lagos waters than the current blue rail?assuming there a sincerity in costing?

santaclaws:


I know where the Schwebebahn is located and I have lived in Germany myself. I'm just saying it's not an essential project in Nigeria right now. We need to get the basics right before thinking of this...

Nigerians are still struggling with potholes on the road, keke and danfo menace, NURTW thugs on the road, rail track thieves etc, we need to get it right first.

It was an engineering marvel. So comfy and nothing to worry about. Boarding and highlighting at the platforms were superb just like using tram. On top of my head, I mean, a lot went into it such as fibrration and balancing of the beam that it is hung and slides on. But it is a very beautiful experience at Wuppertal, the city of suspended monotrain.

God1000:
This is wonderful


Have you boarded such a train before, tell us about your experience

This is not a fanciful thingy. I used it in Wuppertal and then I realized our leaders are indeed short sighted and evil at best.

santaclaws:
Very possible, but it's an unnecessary project. We're ok with a basic fast rail system and good roads for now... We can't ignore the basics and start fancy projects, who are we deceiving. 😏

If he’ll exist, isn’t it meant for some type of people? Do you want the creator of hell to regret his efforts? What is even wrong with you comrade? lol

Comrade, abeg leave am for us. We like it like that. No come again abeg lol

Antihypocrite:


I get ur point, but at least something must interest me enough to take me back there.

You pay and get the value. Don’t you pay tax here, direct and indirect? Are you joking? Don’t you buy prepaid electricity and no supply for u to use it? How about water supply, motorable roads, security and safety? It is like our lawless country has really dealt with us that we see all these ills as normal and we should continue to suffer/smile

femi4:
Did she tell you she pays rent monthly for as much as 1000 pounds....dey play

Outside food, everything is damn expensive
Council tax, tv licence, power n gas bill are recurring expenditure that dem no born you well make you skip a month

Tell me you r joking! You forgot lawlessness pervades the land here and as such no quality guaranteed? What are you buying that you won’t face a high level of counterfeit? De play

Persephone1:
Food is cheap in UK and even USA... Try buying anything outside food then you will know Nigeria isn't TOTALLY bad.

What is good paying job?in our country please. even if you earn so comfortably, you would see reasons to regret being in this country as you drive the roads, until one of family members is kidnapped, or fall ill, or you are robbed, how do you survive in midst of hungry and frustrated fellow citizens, etc Moreso,when one visits other working countries, it would glaring that in the next 50-100 years, Nigeria can’t develop to 1/4 of those countries. It is sad thing!

Nevverio:
People with good paying jobs

Leave op to be yarning dust and telling people how they should live their lives. How can a “rich” guy go to where he would be asked to account for his wealth directly and indirectly? They don’t care and they are lawless and no consequences for bad behaviors, so they would rather stay back and visit and return because they can’t truly work their wealth. We care too much about age in this country and that is why unnecessary pride and resultant penury is dealing a lot a blow. Wealthy?who are the “saintly” wealthy in Nigeria if not “money miss road” or “some cheats” or “some lawless lots who loot and perpetuate and reshare the loot”. Everything is enough to go start all over where there is health care…appendicitis won’t kill you, women don’t cheaply die during birthing, you won’t bother about power supply not internet connection but about how to control your consumption of same, relative security of life and properties, value for lives…human and animals, law and order to a substantial extent, nearly round peg in a round hole in govt systems, government with a listening ear and adopting same is relatively high, elections are issue based and not careless and wanton killings and intimidation, no lawless drivers, no Keke and Okada and even the Mumu Uju as minister who has the effrontery to spend wantonly on useless Keke as an empowerment for women…in this age of industrialization and automation and countless crafts to truly have economy value and to the society and tax system, no bad roads, Christians and moslems looking for miracle’s and juju men flourishing because we don’t have basics of life…if you check what these sets offer they are actually never far from basics of life that working countries have settled for their nationals…if these people get to working countries they would have no one to patronize them, arts and crafts have a good playing ground for anyone to thrive, etc. You can only be scared or cower to this your advice if you are the “get rich quick type” or I want to go to the abroad to build mansions and estates in my village or back home. This your talk is 0 over %1000…shift abeg with this, guy

ednut1:
Remove senior chartered account. KPMG, PWC, EY,BDO, and the other audit firms are filled with Nigerian accountants who were hired directly from Nigeria. People wey dey collect 400 to 600k monthly in Nigerian audit firms enter Uk to collect 46k to 65k pounds per year. Which starting all over be that

You are earning well but you dont have peace of mind, your company or business is suffering from trial and error govt policies, health care is shitty. Why do you think they wont japa

lol…please stop this joke. You seemed to forget the high(est) level of lawlessness here implying zero standards or nothing to write home about. Woods houses are standardized and tested to serve/fit for purpose. Don’t let us start with owners supervising and “managing” materials and/or regulators never visiting and/or looking south if they eventually visit. I mean, we have a lot that you know about on the lawlessness and “justice” procure(ment) by highest bidders.

Standards are a thing here! The gap is like from here to the heavens lol

planetx:
Houses in Nigeria are actually better built than the one's in the US, that are just basically flimsy wood.

He is definitely aware of this and even more. Yes his rent would consume that money by 50%, say, but he would get true value such as (available) electricity,gas, clean air, clean agri produce(to a great extent), water, relative security while in his home(not riotous and disoriented fools easily marauding neighborhood or streets and no law enforcement would easily bring them to order), greatly comported drivers with regards for human life, govt can be questioned and you won’t be easily killed for asking questions on how resources/taxes are spent, and importantly a house built with standard materials and maintenance is assured compared to some shitty houses down here in Nigeria. All he needs is education on how to save/manage his expenses on gas, electricity, food and et all.

Note that I am not against your point, but I think we should be objective is sharing our thoughts with aim of laying all things bare for him to be guided

Goddeywithme:


You forgot to tell him how long it will take him to spend it. Cost of living is way higher. That money he earns in a day there will be spent easily. His monthly rent will become 50 percent of his monthly pay. Don't forget to tell him that

Just imagine what you are saying “he is 8x likely to get shot in US than in Nigeria” yet 8 out of 100 don’t drop dead daily ba? You don’t know what this country truly holds today, say for someone who use to buy 70liters at 15600 to be paying for 43190; no change in sight with income o. No way to change job easily o. No side hussle o, everyone is always looking at you with some bombastic side eyes that you r succeeding or even making efforts to become a better version of your self, let me not start with the “sick” religion mindset that have turned many into “miracle” seekers instead of resourceful countrymen…even politicians that have made life look like you either “belong” to o their class or die, injustice everywhere even in small things of life. Omo, this country is heading downhill so so far and unnoticed to many because they have become used to abnormalities that have become order of the day.

Now, I would think the friend advices him on what he’d do to fare better when he arrives instead of putting them up as reasons he’d not come at all.

So op, learn some survival skills such driving of tractors(aka agri farm machine operation), barbing, joinery, etc. Give yourself a time to get good on any of these or others. Don’t let your age bother you, we disturb ourselves too much with age in this country and we are never better for it as it causes unnecessary pride with resultant effects such as penury and “suffering and smiling” because “my age people don’t do this and that”.

Please plan yourself and go out. Ensure your mindset is focus on “securing a life with basics of life, security and safety”. Don’t go with “get rich quick, I want to build houses in my village, people must know that I am in the abroad, what would my mate say/see in the next years to come”. Don’t put yourself under pressure that don’t translate to true value for your life, don’t live for others opinions, Stay focus on yourself and your immediate family for a starter. All the best ahead,

Offpointng:


Wish I can like this comment ah hundred times. It's really annoying how these folks hate to hear the truth. Like what are you actually going to do Abroad without a skill? what?? Even the better health care system, he won't enjoy cuz where's the money to enjoy it with a menial job?? he might enjoy the organised system but not fully cuz of racism and he's 8times more likely to be shot dead in that USA than he might in Nigeria.

It's pointless giving OP a go ahead if you don't want to be his assumed enemy

You would kpef very soon, no doubt cus the amount of bile being secreted is so high. Bitterness ends a life quicker! You would be experiencing internal heat, then stroke, and off u leave earth.

Obviously, your mindset is what is delaying you from "hammering". Your type would make it and expect all peeps to worship you, and also won't know or value giving to people u til they sweat their life out in hard labor. You are mean! person at the moment. Change!

So encourage yourself to love unconditionally esp as none of them caused what has befall u, no proof they caused u any harm. Stop the eveil

Someone who Just did youth service already got a high paying job in nppc, while me that have graduated Since 2010 still struggling to feed from hand to mouth, no properties no thing to call my own. Meanwhile a cousin of mine already own 2 houses this boy I used to dash him 20naira for busicuit early 2008 when I visit my aunty, now he's 22.

Once you asked them for help and they give you once, they won't want to give you again. My heart's boil so hot whenever I see them on wheels driving expensive cars, A boy who doesn't know anything about life is already married with kid on the way. It wasn't like This when I was in my 20s, back then, we had to labour hard...farming, fishing and the rest to make ends meet..

Imagine, I had to go for house hunting last week and we had to wait for the owner of the compound, he arrived a young man expecting me to greet him first. I just called the agent I wasn't interested.. somebody that can't drag age with my youngest brother.

The guy is always on a wild! Very annoying thing. He can't see solutions that the people r getting but aducing it to his imaginary heaven. Sometimes I wonder what he is still doing here as earth is filthy...just do what u have to do n leave earth alone. >>>he is just an a*s oloun. Twisting everything to suite his unfounded gist. Even peeps of UAE are on another religion but far far better than his country where religion is carried on heads.

All over the world, The Shadows of the Great tribulation is casting itself on us as we are seeing various forms of Orchestrated global Shortages that could lead to Choas.

Right now we are witnessing,
Water shortages

Supply chain orchestrated shortages

Anymoment, anyday now, there will be a worldwide Human global shortage following the Rapture, which will plunge Planet earth into a total global Collapse.

JESUS Christ is Coming Quickly. Live in the Conciousness of HIS Coming. It is gonna be Suddenly, in a time you least expect.

Misery is terrible experience. Don't blame him. He meant well for himself, at least he's doing nothing illegal. You are only religiously biased

Uprightness100:
Crazy jam there! Condolences to the Dead.

These are kind of Scenes that will be all over the Nations of the world, one of these days when JESUS appears in the sky to Rapture his Children out of here.

It's gonna be Worldwide Commotions, as pilots and those in vehicles who are Saved and washed in the Blood of JESUS will mysteriously disappear from their vehicles and planes.

I don't even understand this wack mentality. If the end is near like a click of mouse, what are u still waiting for? Won't it pay u more to leave the world even before the last trp? Common, take the dive and leave us alone

Global Wars at an all time High.
Global Pandemic at all time High.
Global Famine and Pestilence at an all time High.
Earthquakes, Insane weather, Tornadors, Volcanoes, everywhere.

This Ship is Sinking!
This World System is Sinking Fast!
We are soooooooo close to the RAPTURE.
JESUS Christ is the Life boat.
JESUS Christ is the ONLY way to be Saved.

There is only one man on earth who can stop Putin's rage. That is the antichrist ( whom I believe is Obama, the Ex US President).
Unfortunately, his time has not reach to come on the World stage. As his time will be after the RAPTURE of the Bride of Christ.

We are in the Last of the Last days. The Rapture can Happen at anymoment.
Everyone needs to Run to JESUS Christ and Surrender completely to HIM, to avoid Super stories.

Stop being nonsensical

What does it Profit a man/lady to gain the whole Earth only to lose his/her soul?

Kanye West spotted with new girlfriend. Everywhere is quiet, redpillers are happy.

No one is telling us how it is too soon.

No one is telling us how his prick would soon reduce for fucking another woman.

Just good ol LOGICAL comments and well wishes.

A woman can even drop dead and the man would marry in seconds because despite claiming not to benefit from marriage, they are always quick to replace an ex or late wife.

Men are such strange and selfish creatures. Even when they don’t want you, they still do not want another man to want you. If they have their way, once you break up with them, you’ll be confined to a lifetime of posting crypic messages on WhatsApp . That is why they spend productive time monitoring their EXes, hoping the next man pumps and dump. So they can rush to Nairaland to tell us how their EX is 45, single and frustrated, while they are now happily married to a more beautiful woman, with two kids, a 6 by 6 bed, one Firman generator and a Toyota Corolla.

Imagine o....where is this your conclusion coming from? I would like to learn

GoodHardDick:


There's nothing like Alpha women! A woman cannot be an alpha. The word alpha is only attributed to a man and not a woman.

Women ain't made to lead, they were made to follow and hence, can never be an alpha.

Begin to hit him , you will hear him shouting Where is God?

Your points are valid. How long do you intend "to keep clearing out the initials" before opening up? Timing matters. And knowingwhat really would work irrespective of the ownership percentage matters too. For as low as 15% ownership, you could garner enough funding for another idea where your pre-seed is all by you(over 80% contributions). I think one needs to ramp up ideas as these "ideas" are birthed or being nursed by many, so early-to-market with evolving capabilities would always put you ahead of new entrants; the loyaltyand eventual traction is not only procured with money but by being innovative, consistent and adaptive. Yes, I work with one and consulting for another by the side on different idea .

DissTroyer:


I understand. But I think the problem with pre-seed funding is, at the stage the structure is most vulnerable. Investors set an higher margin for exit clause and since profitability of the idea become the main driving force, you could also lose control because your percentage ownership is lower, including the original valuation.

Secondly, there's a tendency to deviate from what birthed the necessity of that idea.

Most financial advisors would tell you to stall pre-seed funding as much as you can. But for FinTech, as with most ideas, funding is important. But what are the terms?

Since I am into web development, graphics, UI and creative writing myself, it's a leverage to quietly work on the idea before opening it up at a later stage. There's the legal framework too which must be clear-cut.

Just out of curiosity, are you working on any or something similar?

Refusing to open it up is understandabl but I think it is not safer. An idea not converted into and timely too will continue to remain "a pregnancy". Rather examine and dimension the level of equity and risks you would desire. Btw, funding appears to be the "engine oil" of any idea �wondering � if you have factor this in already. Don't be over cautious ⚠️ with level of ownership as you could use one realized to open other ideas where you can have a higher stake rather pick your battles and start off asap. My thought.

DissTroyer:
The problem with this is mostly the clause from these angel investors at the pre-seed funding.

The ROI and more. There are so many sharks out there and sometimes one rather scales the idea to a certain stage before opening it up.

I've been working on a philanthropy-driven fintech idea for months now but refusing to open it up.

Agreed. But note the Fintech is massive, and would be lifetime because money is forever(as far as I can think, now) in existence, thus building around it some sort of solutions that provide some great experience(earning, growing and redistribution of finance) will be a lifetime and may not be saturated enough for products to peak. What can happen is competition and only the evolving-ready team would often be ahead.

BennyDGreat:


I agree. There's need for diversification.
