You should be asking how much she makes in a day in her blog. Do you know how much it cost to advertise in her blog? An advert in her blog can go for 5million. She said it herself. Now calculate it for a full month and know how much she is making only from her blog alone. Mind you, she is still into other media outlets business and other side business. If we calculate all, you should know how much alone she is pulling in every blessed day.

I'm not interested in asking how much she makes in a day. Calculate her expenses versus her rumored income (which even you think is so much) and you may discover that somewhere along the line she got the same kind of money Invictus Obi got and is yet to be exposed. The only people whose income I can believe are football players. They are straightforward with nothing to inflate or pretend about. There's nothing secret in there. Unlike these other people who have no true income. People who claim to do business are usually shady and economic with the truth. Some are simply proceeds of corruption.

She is an entrepreneur. We all know her stories. So you mean she is sleeping with men to make her money?
We all knew Invictus Obi's "story". Until exposed, all those posts mean nothing. Anyone can pretend to have a legal source of income. One day, time will expose it.

So what did you gain after you swore for him not to make it. What did you gain as he returned to Nigeria.
Brother if you must help a fellow brother, give him your blessings as he goes, life is not really easy even outside there brother. He may have it in mind to pay back but still trying to settle down, family, debtors, accommodation, jobs, etc. All this these don't balance in a day. May God never send helper like you my way. If the op has sworn for that guy all these years, would he have known that the guy has been struggling and even saving up to pay after 5yrs.

This is why it's good to communicate with people who you owe. He came off as an ingrate, hence the curse. That is why people must show gratefulness. He definitely didn't deserve the money, but that someone took out their time to give him demands he responds and not feel entitled to it to the point of keeping quiet.

What did duduade gain? Satisfaction. Even God doesn't bless ingrates.

Farmerguy:
2015 was a different year for me, after my grandpa died, he willed his farm to me. When he was very much alive, I took interest in farm work and i had to move to th village to work on his farm and his poultry. So he willed it to me and the other family members didn't give a damn. (most of them were doing good in Lagos). So 2015 I sold alot of farm produce (I'd say since he willed the farm to me, I worked harder than I was working before when he was very much alive).

I saved up most of the money, made sure my wife and kids were okay and I threw about 80 percent of the cash i made in the bank.

September 2015, I was roasting yam (me and the people I employed to work in the farm, we took a break) and my dude from way back was on the other end, we spoke for hours that I couldn't continue with the other guys.. He needed money for plane ticket and other stuff.. Said he would pay me back in folds when he gets to the states and works for a while.

I told him I was gonna get back to him as I needed to discuss things with my wife and Iwas gonna get back to him. God till date I didn't know how I credited him one million.. I just can't explain it till date. He eventually traveled and i wouldn't hear anything from him until last night (he didn't call me at any point and I didn't bulge for 5 years).. He'd call me yesterday and said he's never seen a nigga like me and he'll wire me some funds Monday..



It pays to do good, always
But nowadays one has to question if it's the proceeds of fraud.

Did you know your government should do their part by giving you speed limits, educating you on them and enforcing it, for instance? Reckless driving indeed.

Who said it's about big roads or good roads? There's more to do about it.

Career / Re: Should I Recommend My Best "Team Member" For A Higher Position Off My Team? by Tellemall: 1:20pm On Dec 01, 2019
AlexDeedat:
Please I want you to judge me but, while you do that, please be sincere. I will make it brief. Please dont mind the typo errors or any errors as we have many English teachers on board.

It all started about 3moths now, I works with an FMCG Multinational Company as a Field Sales Manager and I was newly transferred to one of the northern state from Lagos.

I arrived this state as a Johny Just Come (JJC) and I can barely speak ordinary 'Wa kin pa o' (come make I kill You), I am a Yoruba Man.
I met an existing Sales team which I inherited from the previous manager.
One of the Sales people is Mr X. Oh my God! This guy is just so exceptionally intelligent, smart, hardworking, dexterous and has the qualities to be a great Manager. He is still an Open Market Sales Rep despite the years he has put in the Business.

Mr X took me round the Territory, helped introduced me to existing distributors and we were able to recruited more. My line manager was so surprised that i was able to fit into the new environment easily and met 72% of my target for the first month within that shortest time. This particular Mr X has so much channels he can singlehandedly do 50% of the entire secondary sales while the remaining sales rep struggled with the rest.

Now this where I'll need your advise. There is a new vacant slots for the post of TSM, three (3)northern states and one(1) south eastern state. I have opportunity to sloth Mr X's CV so he can be called for exams and possibly interviews. I am more than sure this guy will get the job with my help and his effort.

The problem is "I CAN'T LET MR X GO NOW" I decided to work out ridiculous incentives for him to increase his pay and he was so happy about it this month. He received 2x of what he always received monthly for the last few years...but yet, my conscience wont let me rest till now as it is about 48 hours to the close of submission for CVs.

I need this guy on board so badly atleast for like 4 to 5 months when I'll find my feet on this ground..I have looked around the remaining sales team atleast for a replacement but the rest are just.......This environment still looks like I am being pushed here to suffer..If you have been to core north, you will understand.

**I know God pushed him to me and I am very grateful. I'm I being wivked or self centered by holding on from sending his CV?

**I'm I going to be so stupid for allowing him Go now.

Pls advise me on what to do..

Cc: Moderators..

Think of yourself first.

Mr X has been languishing there for years. What difference will 5 months make?

On the other hand, you mentioned God. This means that you cannot stand in his way, when you have it in the power of your hand to give him what he needs. You shouldn't have added that part. But because you have a conscience, do what people with consciences do: use it. Free Mr X and suffer the consequences.

Car Talk / Re: When Did Women Start Having Mind To Drive Like This? by Tellemall: 1:11pm On Dec 01, 2019
It's a known fact that most women are inconsiderate drivers. They are known to be stupid when it gets to right of way issues on the road. I can see why the Saudis kept them away from cars(apart from the religious aspect). Imagine all that stupidity unleashed on the roads, there would be a lot of unapologetically silly behavior.

Most times you have a ridiculous road user, check as you give them the middle finger. It is most likely a woman.

It is actually not that big of a deal because humans, especially younger ones, naturally have the instinct to hold their breath under water. The phenomenon is called Mammalian Diving Reflex and is triggered when cold water touches the face. It is the same reason why birthing baby into a tub of water is possible and also why babies can swim.

Provide solid evidence.

Exactly...they will just start avoiding you and gossiping about you somewhere.

Yeah! The most they will do is come for a useless condolence visit, drop some platitudes and go. Or just avoid altogether and show up when everywhere is full so that they can start pretending.

No, we were some of the main people helping, that's why I know how bad it was. Sibling and cousin doesn't mean anything to some people oh, except freebies. It's a pity

10 lepers were healed. Only one returned to say "thank you".

You should have seen what unfolded when one of my uncles died. It was stranger than fiction.

This man who helped everybody with school fees, food, work, everything! To the point that he even neglected his own projects. The people who stayed in his house rent-free for years, how much did they contribute for the burial N0.00

Everybody was just dodging his house like he was a leper so that they wouldn't have to do anything. Just a few people plus the children had to pull together and prevent the whole thing from being a total disgrace

In short OP should just forget that thing. Feeling guilty my cousin sister blah blah. Nobody cares.

That's life for you. Don't take other people more seriously than you take your self, your wife and your children. Because when it gets dark, they will run far away and they will not help.

I promise you, if something happens to the OP, those people won't drop a cent and they will move on without a care in the world. They will only feel bad that their money bag is gone. This is why I never take people who are after monetary gains serious.

I hope you didn't run from the uncle's family? sad

This is personal so please be courteous with your comments.

I have a married female cousin who takes church serious more than her life, well I don't wanna waste your time with that part of the story.

I have tried to help her husband and her financially for a long time now and I'm afraid I've turned from helper to head of household, not funny. I jokingly told them to hang their boots after they had their fourth child but as I'm typing this, baby five just landed.

Their first son just got admitted into Unilag and guess who they called to help. I've severally decided to stop helping but thoughts of those lovely kids of theirs have always affected my decisions.

I told the newly college admitted boy to open a bank account so that I can channel my help properly but her mum said he wasn't 18 yet so she would be the one running the account until then.

A little background story.

My cousin is a graduate but helps her husband in an imaginary business of his which I have put in like N10m if not more yet nothing to show for it. I later switched to helping my cousin get a job, she ended up getting duped of the money meant to pursue the job Nigerianly.

She was/is my favourite cousin growing up and she was more than a nanny to my sister and I when we were little.

How can I put an end to this madness without feeling guilty about the kids? Mind you, I love their kids very much.

Initially I did not wish to comment, but this thread has opened a sore wound.

From personal experience, you aren't doing them any good. The day you say no, you will become that hated cousin, that evil uncle, you will get to hear how you never did anything for them. They will even go to any extent to wish you harm.

You may have enough, but these people will leech you until you won't have a sound retirement plan, and they won't let you think of your own dynasty. You will love them so much you won't see how much they've been a drag.

If you have given them so much but they refuse to work with it, then further aiding them will be poison. You will be destroying them and making them and their children dependant on you. I am telling you this from experience: the day you refuse to give in to another one of their poorly thought out schemes, they will teach all their children, even that son you love so much to despise you. There will be no guilt on their part. They will justify themselves even when they are users.

How did they have a son and not think of how he will go to university? Then they had four more without a care in the world. Why? You enabled them.

Cut off subtly. Don't give in to their every whim. It's the trials that made you stronger, why don't you let them get stronger? Give them some tough love.

My bro, you have to think twice, no mata the amount you spend on those kids they are never going to be yours, time has thought me that people you help today end up asking you what you did for them, those kids will only remember the day you said no to their request, you are already offending them as it seems because you should have lay down your for them by now.... they will end up loving and caring for this their lazy parents in future. Better think of how you will raise your own family, render help when its convenient, you do not own your cousine yoyr life....look yoy are only encouraging their parents to do nothing, go a d set up your own family, so you can have a way of escape. Look if you have already done that let them lack some finance, they will remember to do something and not yo waste money, they only keep coming to you because they know you do not know how to say no....people are wicked, don't be surprised that these people have money hidden somewhere but are just too greedy to let you be, they do not see how its normal for them to go a day ylwithout spending your hard earned money, my bro be wise a d take actions...

Truth in gold. I regret any steps I took to help people. Just say no and you will know that your haters aren't out there, but have comfortably been traveling all over the world on your expense, educated on your tab and yet! Yet they are the ones who have the most to say that you never did

Better start prioritising your own investments and stop financing somebody else's stupidity. Call them and tell them you're not paying anything except school fees. Set up a direct debit to the school and make a good contact there

If the tables turn and you can no longer keep up those kids will still grow up to curse that their stupid uncle ...hope you know that?

Since she takes the church more seriously than her life let the church sink more money into the fantastical business.

By the way, the Bible has a lot to say about wise spending. Or she didn't see that side or what

Bunch of selfish pseudo-religious leeches. She took care of you as a child and now you must take care of her as an adult right? Somebody with a husband for that matter.

10 million! 10 million.

The bold part has said it all.

The people who you help with your utmost sacrifice will always have things like that to say, and then begin to hate you. If you die helping them, at worst they will shed a tear then move on.

I have shown you that the church collects the money the politicians steal such that they are unable to do what you say they should do.
Is that such a complex thing to understand

So, the reason the politicians don't function is because of the church that they gave all their money to(according to you)? If so, how are the politicians still lavishing the billions right under your nose when they gave it all to the churches (according to you)?

You hate churches and Christians, but understand the difference between the church and the government, and their respective responsibilities.
