Can a Nigerian open a revolut account in Nigeria?

UppaZakum:
Good day. I would like to get your perspectives on some issues I have been facing lately. I am about to make some key decisions that could either make or mar my future, which is why I'd like to crave your indulgence. This is going to a long write-up because it’s important I provide some background.

Next year, I plan to take a career break (leave of absence) towards pursuing a PhD in the US with the hope of transitioning to a dollar-earning environment. This move is going to come with some huge sacrifice - I may have to give up my job in pursuit of this goal. In other words, no income is anticipated within the duration of the PhD (4 years). Moreover, I do not intend to return to Nigeria as I’d be applying for a green card to enable me work in the state. However, should I not be successful in the pursuit of this venture, I’d would fall back to my job in Nigeria. This is not an easy decision to make but a necessary move I have to make to further my knowledge, skills and ambition and to create a great future for my two kids.

Now, here comes the big issue. Since I notified my wife of this plan, she has been extremely joyful. She’s been making lot of plans. Despite the fact that I still have some reservations, she thinks otherwise. Each time, I bring up the reservations with logical explanations; I can see the sadness on her face. That look like “ I hope you’re not changing your mind’. I really do not care though because women folks are emotional creatures without adequate capacity for logical reasoning. While it is okay to look at all the positives that can be unlocked because of this move, it is wise to consider what could go wrong as well in order to make a more informed decision. I can tell she has not been paying attention to the downsides I have been mentioning such as lifestyle changes, possibility of not getting a job even after the PhD, weird western ideologies my kids will have to face etc). She’s just so fixated on the supposedly “good life” over there.

The second issue is the fact that since I started working on this plan, she has been discussing about pursuing a fast-track nursing program (2 years) concurrently with my Phd program. She has been researching schools and all that and has been coming to tell me about the tuition fee. I have not out rightly rejected this idea, but I have stylishly told her it would not work giving excuse that there is no fund to support that ($30,000 for 2 years). She does not seem to believe me. I do not blame her. She has access to my bank statements and knows how much I have been saving (a mistake I admit). She is also aware that I plan to save my all my upfront pay when it comes next year. She has not given up yet on her plan. Anytime I’m back from work, she will always bring it up again and tell me how she found a cheaper option, and blab la bla. She has given more than 1000 reasons why she should pursue the course. She is fond of saying since it’s a two year course, she can always support the family while I’m still pursuing my PhD. The cheapest option is still around $25k. Whenever this conversation comes up, I just maintain a deafening silence or wave it aside without making her feel bad. First, the money I have been saving is to cushion the impact of zero income for the duration of my PhD (4 years). Second, I got a full funding offer with $2500 monthly stipend. Based on my calculation, we should be able to live on the $2500 with some lifestyle adjustment. However, I am making provision for additional $1000/month to cater for miscellaneous expenses, which will come from my savings. In the same vein, after the doctorate, I’d still need some cash to process my green card or EB2-NIW visa and to stay afloat pending when I get a job in the US. In a nutshell, I’m planning to save at least $50,000. It is from this savings that my wife expects me to fund her nursing program. While it might seem like a great idea to fund the nursing program for two years, she gets a job, can then fund the family pending the completion of my PhD, my redpill instinct kicks in, and makes me feel that this is a very risky route to go. We’ve seen situations where women change the moment they start to cater for the family while their husband is not earning any income. I am currently the provider. I provide everything my wife and kids need. Financially, they are very well okay. This is no longer going to be the same over there should I go ahead and fund the nursing program. After her nursing program, she’s likely going to get a decent job and will be in a good position to support the family. While I am not opposed to this, I also have to safeguard my interests and plan for any eventualities. I have no idea what she is likely going to turn into, also considering the fact that we will be in a country where women’s interests are elevated above any other thing. Women are naturally not providers. Any woman providing will most often than not have resentment for the man. The social media is replete with cases of men sponsoring their wives overseas and their wives turning their back on them. The infamous “What have you done for me sef?” comes to mind. Most often than not, it never ends well.
Just to mention, my wife has been loyal and submissive so far. She has been a good mother to my kids. However, I will not let that cloud my judgment, the actions I take and decisions I make. The loyalty and submissiveness will most likely disappear the moment we leave the shore of Nigeria and the moment she’s done with her nursing program and become exposed to the western influence. I don’t know for sure, but I think it’s risky not to prepare for this.

To the redpillers in the house, I’d like to seek your wise counsel. Are my fears valid or unwarranted? While I’d want her to do something productive within the four years of my PhD, I am not convinced to give up my leverage. Are there any no-regret options that I can explore to ensure she's also productive within that period? I have suggested doing a data analytics course or a course not less than $10k. After critical evaluation, I thought I could still sacrifice $10k (with the hope that I will sell the car I bought for her). If she changes, no regret. Her loss. I will not lose sweat over $10k. I will continue with my life with whatever I have left in my savings. My priority is to have enough safeguards and protect all I have worked for. Moreover I can always return to Nigeria to continue my job if shits hits the fan. She does not seem to fancy my suggestion. She just wants Nursing. I have not given my final verdict yet. I wanted to get inputs from redpillers first but my busy schedule wouldn’t allow me. Now that I have the time, I welcome sound advice and suggestions from the house. The money I have saved and the one I am going to save is to help me withstand the temporary setback that will be caused by my plan.

In all you do, always put yourself and your interests First in your decision

This is a defining moment that is very much capable of screwing you up and leaving you with nothing

Over there in the West, all the odds are against you for simply being a man

So any decision you make on this case onwards should be LOGICAL and devoid of emotions

Lol...there is no father Christmas that ladies love better than simps. They are the best providers in the universe.

See how that one trained a grown ass woman, leveled her up and reaped the breakfast rewards.

She married a rewire and people seem to be confused. Those guys make cool money but may dress dirty.

What's Rewire?

henrimoto:
Pls. Can anyone explain part of this financial statement to me.

The net profit part indicates a (-) sign before the figure. Does this mean LOSS or is it that they are paying off a loan debt ?

This is why I ask: the expenses for the period is less than the revenue
Cc: aremso

A negative net profit figure shows the business made a loss for the reported Quarter or Year

You said expenses for the period is less than revenue?? Are you talking about COST OF GOODS SOLD or OPERATING EXPENSES??

Did you also factor in the INTEREST EXPENSE the company will pay on it's debts(Bank Loans, Corporate Bonds)??

Maybe these factors contributed to the net loss the business reported

Kobicove:
Well I made the investment sometime in 2008.

I can't remember the exact amount it cost me at the time but I bought about 30,000 shares

The did a share reconstruction a few years back so now I have about 16,000 shares

The current value of each share on the stock exchange as at today is approximately N40 therefore my 16,000 shares are currently worth approximately N640,000

What do you mean by "Share reconstruction" and what's the rationale behind reducing 30,000 shares to 16,000 shares??

benedictuyi:
I don't know about depositing.
As for withdrawing, they've a wire transfer option

[quote author=Yok2 post=122492790][/quote]How do you deposit and withdraw money from Sproutfi??

victichy:
@OakPearl, I have been following this thread since it’s inception. I registered on Trove app because of this Thread (2019). So it’s over 3 years of investing. I have made over $50,000 deposits on Trove through Real estate Money hoping to invest for a long time and make some money. Unfortunately, most of the stocks I invested in Went down and my money as I speak has Been reduced to a little over 10k.

The Reason I am back writing, is because TROVE has refused to let me withdraw my money since January. I thought it was a joke but up till this moment I can’t withdraw my funds from trove. When I message them, the response I get is that Drivewealth is holding my money.

This is outrageous and I need people who are investing with Trove to be aware what the are doing. If there is any Trove staff available on this platform , I am making an appeal that I need to withdraw my funds, this is not fair. I NEED MY Money. You can’t hold my money for almost 4 months now and keep feeding me Bullsh*t.

Sorry for the typos. Na Vex I take write this.

I don’t do this and it’s painful, I have to call them out here. Please anyone who can help me Reach out to TROVE, I need to be able to Withdraw my funds that is available for withdrawal. Since they have refused to respond to my messages.

Report DriveWealth to FINRA and SEC(I've done it before) demanding a reason why your money is being withheld by them

FINRA and SEC will write them a query mandating them to give you a response regarding the matter

They'll answer you promptly and officially

Ok sir, I hear…..we will both come back here to see how it will end, I guarantee the white man will not let him go scout free.

A lady accused him of rape, despite the lady refusing to press charges, the French government took it upon themselves to press charges against him, their reasons been for ‘public interest’.

He is paying lawyers in both cases but we are hear saying he is broke and all his money were dashed to his mother…just like the mother is currently dashing him attorney fees, she should be ready to be dashing him alimony monies, etc.

His best bet is to settle those cases, otherwise if a Judge decides on it, they will take him to the cleaners and throw his ass into jail until he ask him mother to dash him alimony money.

Paying Alimony is far cheaper than losing half your shit in a divorce proceeding

Hakimi won't have any problems paying alimony....and by the way, he's also entitled to half the properties in his ex-wife's name

Esoresor:
A rich man is expected to plan for the future as well but if unfortunately that happens then the woman should stand strong by him. I just feel it’s wrong to condemn women who only wants rich men while ignoring her other very good qualities.

How many world cups has Messi played?

5 and he won the one

There is no guarantee Mbappe will win another World Cup in his international football career

Messi has one world Cup, Mbappe has one world Cup

Now tell me how many Balon d'or has Mbappe won??

Messi is about to get his 8th and they're both in the same Team which means Messi is very much likely to get his 8th Balon d'or before Mbappe gets his first

TheOgaBoss:
oga mbappe achieved what it took Messi decades to achieve, give him his due.

A decade is 10 years and Mbappe won the world cup just four years ago (2018)

So how did Mbappe achieve what it took Messi decades to achieve??

When Messi was Mbappe's age, he already has Balon d'or

Mbappe can only dream, he can't lace Messi's shoes

[quote author=yok post=117789179][/quote]The problem is that SproutFi only serves Latin American investors. I have checked their platform and they are currently not tending to Nigerians

So even if Passfolio moves our stocks to SproutFi, it's useless because SproutFi doesn't tend to Nigerian investors

What do you think about Trove?

WE ARE BACK TO OUR NORMAL GAME TILL NOV 2 FED MEETING
The fear of the Fed issue is now settled. Inflation must be attached with heavy rate hikes?

For us and our forum members, you will receive more stock picks henceforth. However, we are playing a very strict game, we would avoid buying anything that is overbought, this is the issue we have been avoiding. Too mant stocks in the oil sector are overbought, but we will look for reasonable pull backs. For this at least we have 2 names in mind, but we believe crude or oil will not be sweet if there is no dividend- don't you hear sweet crude all the time, so we are only interested in oil stock that has the sweet(dividend) attached. If you look at the history of oil prices except for a new coy (has Nad many mergers and acquisitions) like OXY, most of them will still be close to prices they were sold probably 4years ago, you can check and dispute my comment (no harm, I may not even counter the argument), the point is if you look at the sectors, OIL has one of the higher dividend yields

Passfolio is closing operations and will transfer it's customers stocks to SproutFi. The problem is that SproutFi only tends to the needs of Latin Americans

Do you know the Broker one can transfer his stock assets in passfolio to?

I dont save money

It's against everything I stand for

Mom007:
You are a small boy trying to play God with what you don't know about. That cheating girl you knew 7years ago is no more o, let me tell you. She is now a mother of 3 children and somebody's wife. Remove hand from her and her family matter before something bad happens to you. Or are you jealous her life turned out better than you expected? The small child you claim you are feeling for, what better place do you think she can be aside from where she is? You want to bring a druggy, junkie, armed robber yahoo boy into the small child's life now and you think thats really the best for her? Can your friend take care of the child? What claim does he have on that child besides donating sperm? Leave that family alone if you like yourself. Besides, if you tell the husband, you ruin the whole family. What of he sends her out with the 2 kids who are truly his and they become destitute in the street? Can you have that on your conscience? Whats it to you anyway? You are not connected to them in any way so whats your own? The woman's karma will locate her eventually, never doubt it but it doesn't need to come from you.

So the man doesn't deserve to know the truth about the paternity of the child he think it's his seed

That's highly selfish and unfair to the man. Women will always support women's indiscretions

Actions have consequences. The man has a right to know the woman is imposing someone else's child on him making him think it's his child

Then he can decide whether to keep being a father to the child or not

Ebonygeek:
Don't fúck up a child's life for nothing. What future do you think she will have with such a sorry excuse for a father?

She's got a good home now and has better chances of living a good and promising life where she is!

So the man that thinks he's her biological father and toiling day and night to provide for his "daughter" doesn't deserve to know the truth??

If it is PBR, then forward the screen short from yahoo finance showing the exdiv date 22 JULY?? . you may likely get a better response. But I believe you will get it. Passfolio is too big to play pranks, you can copy support at Drivewealth.com in your mail.

I've sent several emails to DriveWealth customer service but they have ignored all my mails. This is unlike them as they used to promptly reply my in the past. Passfolio have also joined them in ignoring my mails

I want to know if there's other ways of contacting DriveWealth aside from mail cos they no longer reply my mails

PBR just paid dividends day before yesterday, those invested in it have received theirs, I don't know why Passfolio is telling me there's no dividend payment in July for Petrobas(PBR)

yok:
Please check the ticker you have bought: PBR is Petrobras it does not pay monthly dividend. The one that pays monthly dividend should pembian (PBA) . If you confirm your ticker, you can verify the exdiv date on fidelity research website. . Good that you care for your money

Do you OWN PBR Stock?? It paid dividends two days ago. Those that own it have received theirs already but passfolio is telling me stories

Pls who invested in PBR Stock?? Did you receive this month's(July) dividend??

Passfolio told me PBR did not pay dividend this month while it paid

Other investors that use other brokers have received their dividends from PBR
