Ok, please give me one reason why you mentioned me. Just one reason.

PAQ:
The reasons are; Dollar rates and increasingly high custom duties.... Then greediness on car dealers, especially third party sellers.

2012 i bought a 2005 Toyota Matrix for 1.550mill today, 10 yrs later its about 2.2mill.

Take good care of your cars, because the Nigerian economy has now turned a car into an asset, abnormal but true.

I saw it online on jiji, imagine adding almost 100% in value after 10 years, cars in Nigeria are like Italian Cheese, the older it gets the better it becomes, such an irony. Smh. Thanks for your input anyway.

henrinco:
The major factor is most automakers didn't have computer chips to push out their cars 2020,2021,2022 due to covid. Most 2022 cars you place order for here, you will have to wait for 3 to 6 months. Thus, since people can't have new cars, old ones started increasing in price (law of demand and supply). Is very bad here in Canada, cars also appreciated in value.

The price increase here will influence cost of tokunbo cars in Nigeria. It is still simple economics.

Wow... Just wow...

No real insurance and government environmental protection agency against pollution, if not the prices will drop to dust

Please elaborate on this more.

The solutions are numerous. I will mention just few.

Make policies to discourage ostentatious living. In America for example, the more expensive your car, the more tax you pay for the car. In Nigeria, an undergraduate that has no job will own an expensive car on campus. If the undergraduate's father or mother is properly taxed, the undergraduate may not own the car.

Stop celebrating people's wealth when you do not clearly know the sources of the wealth. Those who fraudulently make money deliberately cause inflation just to show they are richer than others. They will pay 1,000 Naira for a bottle of water that normally costs 100 Naira. They raise the prices of items to monopolize the satisfaction. If you begin to ask critical questions about people's wealth before celebrating those people, even crime will reduce. People commit crime for money because they know the society does not ask how the money comes. The society cares about only the money.

Serve yourself in many areas. If you open Chicken Republic door yourself, the price of food in the place will reduce. If the company hires a person tom open the door for you, the person's salary will be added to your bill.

Learn that wearing one cloth more than once in a week is not poverty as long as the cloth is neat.

Discourage irrational spending. People used millions of dollars to attend the 02 Arena show just to show off. The same performance can be watched online. Going to 02 Arena is not wrong. But there are more important things the money can be used for. Those people that traveled and bought tickets for the show passed homeless people and poor patients on their way to airports. But irrational thinkers will say it is not my money. They will say whoever makes money should spend the money as he wishes. But the same fools complain when pastors and politicians spend public money.

Stop accepting gifts during political campaigns. Politicians use their money to offer the gifts and later embezzle public funds to pay for the gifts. Why is he giving you the gift? To do him a favour? Are you voting for him to favour him or for him to serve you? Do children give adults gifts when adults send children on errands? Is it not abnormal for a political candidate you want to send on an errand to give you gifts for sending him on an errand? Answer these questions.

Stop celebrating political projects as if the politicians spend their personal money on the projects. Why would you sing and dance when a governor tars a road? Is the job not why you voted for him? Is he not getting salaries for doing the road? Is the road construction a charity work by him?

Doing these things will change people's ideologies. The ideological change will reduce the demand for foreign goods. When the demand reduces, the price will fall. Remember the law of demand and supply. Nigeria demands more than it supplies. The higher the demand, the higher the price.

You made so many rational points that can be put into consideration. I like your evaluation and if put to practice will reduce a lot crime, especially the questioning of a gotten wealth.

In America, is expedient to have a job before anyone can rent you a house.

In conclusion, we are the real cause of our problem so to say.


Thank you very much your input. I appreciate.

U no get problem na if na only car u notice the price skyrocket

Lol... Na where en pain me more I dey talk, I want to get a car soon.


If a bag of rice was sold 15k last 5 years ago and today it's sold for 33k; I won be bothered as it's no longer the same rice of 5 years ago am buying today. A lot has gone through the manufacturering processes etc...

Its not a car that remains the same for 10 years but rather it's value appreciates in Naija

immortalcrown:
Many African countries have better economy than Nigeria. It is simple.

Is there any solution you think (your opinion) can solve this problem?

aycapri:
Aswear, the matter tire me. Na tha Corolla price worse pass. Accounting in secondary school taught us that assets like this depreciates in value. It is the other way round in the current Nigeria. It is well

I swear, 2002, a car of 20 years is sold 2.5m in naija, like how? These cars are probably not being manufactured again or has many many more newer models to compliment the years.

Yet it's still very had for a middle class to acquire. It is depressing indeed

HitbackIIback:
They don't as both items mentioned above obeys the laws of wares and tears. The issue we have is that our currency is dying everyday and this is what we use in exchanging with dollars. The dollars has sworn never to show naira mercy. Our depreciative manners makes it look as if these items are appreciating.

So a car dealer, who had a stock he never sold 5 years ago stand a chance of selling it at a higher price just because the niara has depreciated? Not because he added anything to the car?

Something is seriously wrong.

immortalcrown:
Economic abnormality is the answer. Nigeria is the fastest in moving towards the wrong direction. What Nigeria sells to foreigners keeps losing price value. What Nigeria buys from foreigners keeps gaining price value. How much was crude oil last 5 years and how much is crude oil now? If naija gets a functioning refinery, crude oil price will rise only in Nigeria against Nigerians.

In conclusion, bad economic policies keep crippling Naira. Good economic policies favour other currencies.

Are we the only country with bad economy? I've seen people going out to some neighbouring countries to get this cars very cheap then smuggle it into Nigeria.

Normally, the reverse should be the case. Like how can a car worth 3 million naira 7 years ago now be almost 8.5 million?
No modification, just the normal same car of 7 years ago with the same engine and probably the same body.

How do these things appreciate so much once they get to Nigeria, even worse the value keeps adding as the year goes by.

Same thing with laptop computers.

What's going on?

KensonAbule:
If you do masturbate, then u stop it

Everything in nairaland is caused by masturbation eg: bad luck, masturbation, not sleeping, masturbation, not worship God, masturbation, not making it in life, masturbation! The list is endless. Smh

Deborah98:
I can't wait for luck to smile on us again in terms of good governance. This suffering too much no be lie. A Nation that is rich in crude oil lamenting as though they have none. Chim oooooooooooooo it is well.

I thought Dangote refinery has started work. We were promised it will reduce this sufferness.

ubunja:
If it weren't for that women need men's money, most men would die without never having tasted pussy. Thank goodness for money. Women will tolerate any kind of shiit as long as they're compensated for it.

But with sex, as with anything in life, there'll always be cheat codes and shortcuts that cut through the money thing and even the body game and jumps over even the Chosen method and get you laid even faster and easier. Like this one brilliant hack this other guy used to make women want to fucc him....

If you think offering a girl money is the quickest easiest way to get her to have sex with you, then you've never showed a girl a video of yourself fuccing another girl's brains out!!
Let me explain...

So, I know this guy who somehow had a short sex clip of himself tearing pussy on his phone. I'm not going to talk about the risks of this, like What if you lost your phone etc. But will speak on how his video was his marketing tool.

So the guy would be out with some girl, then play the clip on his phone, and the girl would know it's a póřńó clip because of the noises and be curious and ask to see. Looking at the video, The first thing the girl would see is some dude fuccing a chick's brains out. Mmmhhmm. Then seconds later she realizes IT'S THIS GUY she's talking with who's in the video!!! Wait what!? AND JUST LIKE THAT EVERYTHING HAS BECOME REAL. The video has come to life. Now the girl is no longer just watching,, she takes the phone and studies the video with a mix of intrigue and wonder. She's as amused as she's shocked - everything about the guy is bare for her to see!! His dick, his body, his technique, his expertise!! Now the girl is making decisions in real time, responding to the guy as quickly as her body is responding to the video....

Let me tell you the guy's body count shot through the roof!! .

Lol... The sex clip work like a charm!, had one on my phone some years back, each time a girl comes to visit me and goes through my phone gallery, she stumbled upon it and get the thrill of her life. Like, my face ain't showing in the video though, just a POV doggy se'x, but she could see the bed is mine through the bed sheet and my hands.


I quickly grab the phone from her, though it just a minute clip and the only sex video on my phone, you need to see how they beg me to allow them finish washing it. Like this girls would deny viewing porns but can't help viewing my sex clip.


The next move I ask her if she likes my dick, how how I bleeped the girl... Lol, long story short I end up fucking her from just a little video of me she saw.

Never thought it was the video though until this your write up, cause my intention was never to allow her see the clip in the first place, I've had sex with 2 girls who saw the clip without thinking about it.

I think now that I know, I have to start using is wisely lol.

Divoc19:
Finally, this is the reason behind the attention. Must he be a president to make a change?

In Nigeria, YES!


More than 200 million population crying over one thing yet a man, just a man sitting on helm of affairs nullifies and does what he feels with no regard. That is the power that comes with being a Nigerian President. If 200 million people combined won't be heard you think a standalone man will make any change?

First of all, I've been a gym instructor and what I have to say is... That lady in that pic ain't married. The rules are to make sure you ask about the marital status of your client before any training. There is some training very bad for a month old pregnant woman, less to say.


Second of all, regardless of the exercise benefits, married or not. Once the training requires you are to touch a woman's sensitive part, you ask for her acknowledgement and if she ain't comfortable with it, you diverse another alternative for that training.


In conclusion, unless totally required and as a last resort, you don't put anybody in a position that exposes them sexually to the eyes. Be it, man or woman, in fact, in my gym a guy is not allowed to take off his clothes openly and there are dressing codes for everyone.


And yeah, we don't encourage anyone coming to the gym with their lover. It takes away the focus and many other things I can't write now.

[quote author= post=110448460]Na over 3.5 go end the game.

What concerns rituals and increase in school Fee's as if they are the ones paying the fee's. Your parents are the in better position to protest or complain not you.

Just imagine, so an individual can't sponsor him or her self again in school?

Don't you know most of this parents are being owed by the same government months after months, you think of they have the time and energy to protect they won't?

Most of this students have conscience, they know what and how their parents get to work to raise that money.

ubunja:
nowhere on the manosphere are people promoting cold approaching. From Stephiscold to Alpha Male Strategies to Corry Waine to Cousin TTaw to Rom Wills All the red pill groups are on Choosing Signals, that's the red pill. If you want to push an idea that is not really red pill all in the name of trying to be inclusive and accommodating people who want retain their blue pill methods, you're corrupting the very game you're trying to understand.

Cold Approach doesn't give you confidence,, what gives you confidence is a girl you don't know, whom you've done Nothing for, and she chooses you to be her BF as you are. That's what will improve your self worth and make you feel like a human being of value.

You simply dont understand why the Bible mentions that the road which leads to destruction is broad and many follows it?

No matter how much you sound it, even if all the 3.5billion males on earth hears it. I still believe only a handful will follow the Rep Pill method. You can't simply change what evolution has imprinted in humans for many years in just a few article or thread. But let this not discouraged you my brother, people like me are grateful reading your write up, and we know this is the hard truth.


My short story: I've never dated a girl I Cold approached and it lasted more than a month. In fact, it's 3 weeks max.

Wooing a girl outrightly has always ended either in my bed or just waste my time and money. It's always a relationship I barely enjoy.

I started noticing the chosen game 7 years ago and how magnificent it is. The minimum duration of any relationship I was chosen lasted more than 5 months, the dating was superb, no pretence! no packaging! This bitches will nearly wanna die if they don't see me in a month, not to brag though... Lol...

There is to much to talk about this but I'm not gonna bore you or anyone with it.

The reason most people are scared of the chosen signal is because they feel it takes time or most of the time it's the girl they dont fancy who always come for them... Lol won't say it's a lie though.

The little trick I use to get a beautiful girl I really wanna Bleep is to make her believe she worthless to me. The trick it to make her think about me all the time and in a way that make her question herself, lol... She gonna act like she hates me though, but deep down she will wanna know why I see her as worthless when a lot of guys are dying to get her reply.

This writeup is becoming longer than I expected, I've been using this trick before I even stumbled upon your article about something of stuff. Have a love day Ubunja.

ubunja:
For guys getting triggered over this writeup.....





And don't worry guys, I got you. It's gonna be sweet when I put out writeups for Male Gold Diggers. Just chillax.

Can't wait for this "Male Gold Diggers"

ubunja:
I don't usually quote you cause you're more blue pill than red pill, but I'll stop you right there and call bs on that 80% blue lie. Dude even women themselves don't hit 80%, don't come here with that bs man. We're not kids here. Even di Caprio himself with all his looks and status and money, if he approaches 10 girls I bet you he will not get all of them to say yes,, and even getting 8 (which is the 80% mark) isn't guaranteed. hypergamy itself isn't as straightforward as many guys think. Many times it misfires because women are first of all emotional. Ask yourself, If hypergamy was as ironclad as it supposedly is, why are many women married in poverty. But that's not why I'm responding to you,, that 80% lie is what I can't countenance. I could have ignored. The more realistic stat that has been shared is "approach 100 women for sex and 1 will say Yes". Of course You may get more than 1. But to tell us that for every 10 chicks you cold approach 8 will say YES is bullshiit on top of bullshiit because even women themselves don't hit those numbers.

Anyways, you've said it yourself that cold approaching is addictive more than sex. No wonder. Cause I doubt there's a lot of actual sex there.

Yeah, have a friend who does more if the cold chasing stuff more than he gets laid. He sees it as flexing since he's good looking and hardly get turned down when he request for a girl's number.

The short story is, he hardly every get to fucck this girls, after wasting time and money on airtime and WhatsApp chat. Lol...

I keep asking him the aim of it all since he only ends up wasting his time and making these bitches feel valuable than they are worth.

ubunja:
Meanwhile in South Africa...

Had a comment on this somewhere here a few days ago.

Am yet to see foreigners crave our Naija girls they wey dey do for our men.

It boils down to how we have been brought up from the outset.

An average Nigerian guy starts struggling with life from 17years old, since nature won't stop his dicck from erecting, he always falls for the scam he has been told and seen on TVs about how to love a woman. He ends up being used and manipulated and yet still feels it's normal and what he's expected to do. He feels so lucky and loved when the opposite gender reciprocates a little of his affection.

This is how we have been trained, it started a long time from the Nollywood movies to the advert we see.

That's why many foreign women love Nigerian men! Because we have seen the worst of females here at home, dating them make use feel free and loved, the affections they give us in return for just dating them make any Naija guy fall in love! When we try to treat foreign women the same way we treat our women, they get overwhelmed. Nigerian men are always desired by these foreign women.

I'm yet to see or hear a foreigner wishing for a Nigerian girl, I haven't heard.


As I said, it boils down to our upbringing. Thanks to the internet, a lot has been emancipated from this ideology and that's why the hatred for Nigerian girls by their male counterparts keeps increasing.

pocohantas:
Smh. What is wrong in him being after her money? Women go after men’s money everyday in the name of financial stability.

Everybody wants the other for something. So make we no dey disguise.

That is how I saw one in an online group begging people to pray for her 38yrs old Canada based sister to see husband this year.

What stops her sister from marrying one hardworking homebased guy and taking him to Canada? At 38 what does she expect a man to want from her? Agbalumo breast or virginity?

If he loves you, is hardworking and sensible, what else? Smh!

The best comment I've seen from you so far, and believe me I've been here for a long time

More like list of things SIMPs should do.

All i know in this Buhari's time is only money that melt but parties heart.

Of course! Who wouldn't

Loewe:
No sane man would come close to such a woman in the first place.

On another note:
There are also male intimacy gadgets (fake vagina), but let's ask ourselves why dildos and vibrators sell far more when men are always the ones vilified for liking sex too much.

Indeed a very nice question! Like how do these things sell more in the market but yet men are the ones seen as sexcapades

These people have fuel stations in some west African countries that sell fuel higher than 165naira.

They have the power and money, imagine having about 5 fuel stations in Ghana, you buy at 165 and sell at almost 500naira when converted. They pay those at the borders, you can't stop their tanker trailer moving this fuel to a neighbouring country.

It's such a pity and unfortunate, whatever policy they make is always for their good but never the masses. They so much take advantage of the overpopulation we have in this country.

Omo, naija can never better, the foundation is flawed. Only the second coming of Jesus can make it better.

Loewe:
Same Nigerians dealing with Nepa, bad roads, insecurity and generally rough environment will now be scared of snow? Abeg rest!

Snow that's only for a season ooo!

It pains me a lot this is happening to my one favourite player at Chelsea, we begged him never to leave.

How a player who did so well and was talked about by every media became literally none existent in the mind of fans baffled me.

His cross, let him carry it.
