InvestmentStarting A Transportation/courier by TheOldGods(op): 1:11am On Dec 31, 2024
Hello everyone, I want to buy this car. I've already finalised the deal. But I remembered I can ask questions to get a feeling of this business I am about to venture will be profitable. I am currently in Lagos, and I am looking to start a courier service with this bus at the island. Carrying goods, helping people move/Relocate etc.

Please if you've had this type of bus before, what are the things I need to look out for?

Can it travel long distances?

How is the fuel consumption

Also is it a good side hustle, if you're into this?

Your ideas will help me alot to make the best decision.

Very unfortunate...some of these deaths are avoidable, if government officials do their jobs.
No death is avoidable because we can't control what happens next or around us.

You can be very careful but, a car will fail brake and hit you from the back and it's death. The only way death could be avoidable is if we are able to see the outcome of our death

did you see me mention to him that he should not believe in water he wants? Tha you believe in whatever you want doesn't mean that it's right. And doesn't also mean you have to believe in what is right. You can choose to keep kidnapping people even when talked to 100 times about the consequences. Yet the kidnapper will never stop

[quote author= post=133479863]You Will Not Die Before Your Time, I Pray 🙏[/quote]Prayers doesn't do anything. It's over speeding, lack of awareness and bad luck that causes these things.
No amount of prayer can save anyone who doesn't know how to swim, yet jumps into a deep pool of water, if there is no life jacket or anyone there, no amount of prayer can save that person

No Amount of prayer can save anyone who is driving at speed 250mph/hr on a rainy slippery road, but driving at 60 speed and a touch of luck is what saves. Have a nice day

Nonsense

If government is the one dealing with drugs, it's legal, but once you do it, it becomes illegal. Government of selfishness. If government exports oil, it becomes legal, but if you do, it becomes illegal. If you buy a land from the government it becomes legal and yours, but once oil or natural resources is discovered on your land, it becomes illegal and no longer your land. Ask yourself where Are they taking all these drugs they seize? Dey play


Government is just a group of people using the security to enrich themselves

tell us how you think religion should be abolished, shat should the government use
first it's simple, we need to start from the foundation, which is our children. We have a lot of lies and miseducation about religion. You don't learn left hand at an old age. The government can start from schools, from kindergarten, teach them that prayers do not bring money. Teach them there is no God anywhere overseeing what we do but the government and if they do bad they go to prison. Teach them that there is a criminal called Jesus who came to die for the sinners, meaning they can sin and Jesus will always forgive them. Teach them that humans are not created but born.


I mean, if you have a one on one communication with me, you'll understand better. I'm not explaining myself well here

If tomorrow, he becomes President before Peter Obi or anyone from the SE, they'd start blaming INEC and the Judiciary. The difference between Peter Obi and Seyi is the fact that Obi is donating up and down at the time he is desperate to become President whereas Seyi is donating years ahead of his political ambition just as his father did. Don't give when you are desperate; Moral of the lesson.


A round of applause for Seyi Tinubu 👏👏👏
just shut the f up. He is donating with whose money? What job is Seyi Tinubu doing? I'm very sure it's his father that built this thing and told him to commission it for it to look like he built. You're comparing obi with Seyi, you should be comparing obi and your father. What has your father achieved and donated? But obi has donated and achieved a lot. Silly noise makers

If you knew how lucrative Freelancing is, you wouldn't say this. There are freelancers that make 6 figures monthly and I'm sure OP is financially capable of moving to Abuja which is why he made this post.

Gone are those days where you'd have to leave home and go to work to earn a paltry sum of 100k or less. This is the digital era where one can make 6 figures from the comfort of their house.
lol, you wouldn't want to have that argument with me. Started freelancing since 2019, made alot of money from freelancing but it's not stable. Unless you're fully employed remotely. If it's just freelance, you can go for 2months no single client.

THELATTERMAN:
I'm planning to relocate to Abuja next month, that is January 2025, after completing my undergraduate study in one of the neighboring states. I'm confused about the best, most affordable place to stay.

My major needs are security, electricity, nearness to town, and affordable housing. I have been looking at Kubwa and Lugbe, but I would appreciate some input from Abuja residents here.

Note: I am on a budget. So, places like Asokoro, Utako, etc are out of it. Secondly, I'm a freelancer; hence my need for an area with a steady electricity supply.

So, where in Abuja would you suggest and why?
I will not advice you to move to Abuja if you don't have a job. Bro, prices of house hold are very expensive. If you still stay with you parents and under 30, I will advice you to stay there ooo. Learn a skill that earns money, and make sure you have upto 6million before trying another state. You need to get a stable job oo. Freelancing is not stable.
FoodRe: How Blenco Supermarket Ajah Is Ripping People Off with no price tags by TheOldGods(op): 5:33pm On Dec 12, 2024

This happened to me as well at Egbeda. There was no price tag for the ducros curry I wanted to buy. Only to take it to the counter and my total balance was off. I wasn't the only one shopping so I thought it might be another item that was too expensive. Only for me to find out that the curry was almost 6k, for 250g o.

As I didn't see the price on it, I thought las las it cannot be more than 2k. That was why I didn't even bother to ask. Omo that was the last time visiting that supermarket.

FoodHow Blenco Supermarket Ajah Is Ripping People Off with no price tags by TheOldGods(op): 12:35am On Dec 12, 2024
So I entered his blenco mall at Addo road Ajah. Only to discover that these guys removed price tags for all their items. I was shocked because I have never in my life witnessed such a thing. When I asked one of the workers, she said that the management told them to remove price tags, that prices of items are Increasing so they removed price tag. And I asked her, so prices of items are increasing every second.

I was so dissatisfied and was very angry that we Nigerians are the one doing ourselves. Recently Lagos State government started cracking down on supermarket not fixing price tags in june 2024. They should go and seal up blenco and fine them huge money, maybe that will set a standard for people trying to milk and cheat others I bought toilet roll for 750 per one at blenco, same toilet role I priced at the street , small aboki seller which is going for 250 naira but because I can't see price I paid for it without checking.

How can we report this?

InvestmentShould I Start A "Holding Company" Or Corporation? by TheOldGods(op): 12:37pm On Dec 09, 2024
Hello, people of Nairaland. I am in the middle of starting a business and investment plan. I have gotten my company name and I am now ready to register at C.A.C. However this is where I am confused. I want to start an oil production firm and a video production company and I am also in the process of bread production. I want each of these companies I am running to have their own separate names but under one general brand name either the ''Holding or Corporations''. I am still a small business, and I am looking to run away from tax if possible or where I can pay the least, I also need where I can invest money that doesn't accumulate tax as I heard online that holdings can do that. but I don't know how Nigeria's laws work on these. So any Help, advice or input no matter how small will be appreciated.
thanks

Mods please help get more Audience, as I cant see any answers for this here

myspace:
Why are you not adding the part of the bill that would increase VAT by hundred percent, from 7.5percent to 15percent?

Why are you not adding the part that would require all Nigerians have a Tax ID to operate even a savings account, which means government can monitor and garnish inflows they deem taxable, even if those savings inflows are proceeds of non-profit activities?

What kind of demonic cruelty is this? Nigerians are crying for relief but you want to increase their tax burden.

It is sad the only people voicing concerns about this draconian bill are from the north.
oh, I didn't even know there is something else hidden. The north should never let it slide

simps, are talking. If you listen to your wife, that's where you'll remain poor. Some men took the best decisions of their life until they married to a woman. Women are not logical like men, that is why they are always poor, the only thing they can sell is their body. Imagine taking advice from a woman who has never seen 1million in her life, taking financial advice from her? Some men are just simps nothing more.

How many women is their 20 to 30 years were able to build a house, buy a car and start up a business? But you as a man you did all that, and still brought a liability home to be feeding her just because you want to have babies.

Na the person who brought that nonsense addage" behind every successful man is a woman" needs to be sentenced to death, I'm sure it's a woman who said that to make it seems they have impact in a man's life.

"Behind every successful man is all night of thinking, is all day of hardworking, is all night of borrowing money for business and planning how to pay it back. Behind every successful man, is all week of hard labour, carrying cement, behind every successful man is all day of saving money, depriving himself of instant pleasure for his tomorrow. There is no woman who can make a man rich, instead they will always take from you. You can't plant what you don't have.

There's nothing to probe, besides the investigation was posted since 19th Nov just to calm the SM tension...Even though I condemn brutality of any kind but Why is nobody talking about the silly attitude of the civilians in question? If you all Wants to be sincere, watch the video closely, He's a maj gen & should be respected, Even the guy's attitude in response to the soldiers says alot. Common SORRY would have averted all that but nonsense pride made them to stand up to military men and a general for that matter.
respect is earned not given. I don't care if you're a military general or whatever nonsense. If you don't command respect, you won't get it. Why will a so called general be hitting someone? Why will an adult, come down to play with kids. I keep telling Nigerians, if by any chance any military man hits, you, Omo, if you can knock them out with one punch, do it immediately. There power no reach to fight you. If they feel you did anything wrong, they should arrest you, and take you to the police and charge you to court. The moment there is a hit, Omo, if you have anything hit them back, it's self defence

INDIA AND INDONESIA DID THE SAME THING TINUBU IS DOING. THEY ENDED FUEL SUBSIDIES, SAVING TENS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS WHICH THEY PLOUGHED BACK INTO INFRASTRUCTURE, HEALTH, EDUCATION ETC.

WHEN HE ENDED SUBSIDIES, INDIANS WERE ABUSING HIM. THERE WAS SERIOUS HARDSHIP.

THEY ACCUSED THE GOVT OF THE SAME LAVISH SPENDING ON OFFICIAL JETS, CARS ETC.

BUT LOOK AT INDIA TODAY.

THEY HAVE CHANGED LEVELS.

GIVE TINUBU TIME!
bro, it's not about given two years to mature, are they doing it? Tell me one good project that this government started after removing subsidy and is using the subsidy money to do it, before we can consider giving that project few years.

Even ordinary electricity the grid is collapsing back to back, and they can't declare emergency of it.
