Sports / Re: 'I Rebuilt My Life After My Wife Took Everything' - Arsenal Star Emmanuel Eboue by tosinhtml: 4:40am |
jedisco: I sincerely do not understand the craze of African players for white women, I cannot even trust anyone more less of a white woman. In fact even on my death bed, I cannot marry one of them. They know the law and will not hesitate to kill you with it if need be especially when it comes to wrecking you, they all extremely brutal and have zero emotions on that side. Even Mikel Obi has been together with his girl for years but refused to marry her, same with Ronaldo. None of those people trust their spouse. 1 Like 1 Share |

Gerrard59: There is no way to become a multi-millionaire in EU unless you start a business which you cannot until you have some residency in EU after some considerable number of years. Even management positions here earn peanuts, VP of Goldman Sachs is on 120k. That's not a lot of cash when you remove cost of living and tax of 45%. |

tensazangetsu20: Okay, the problem here is you think the experience in Chile is going to be the same in Canada & all those places. Everybody in the West is saying the same thing, I don't understand why you think they are lying. You are basically comparing women in Chile or whole of South America to the rest of world. tensazangetsu20: Tax in Germany is 45%, it is easier to become a millionaire where you are than any Western or A list country because of taxes. People I know in Germany since 2020 haven't saved up to €100k and they are in tech. Why don't you create a Poll or ask people in Travel section who live in these countries for years if they experience the same thing. I mean hear from horses mouth directly. 15 Likes |
Programming / Re: Front End Dev - Would You Prefer To Use A Template Or Code From Scratch by tosinhtml: 10:28pm On Sep 20 |
airsaylongcome: It depends on the type of clients. As someone who used to be a professional 9-5 Wordpress theme developer, using templates is one of the worst things that can happen to you to if you plan on delivering a stellar job. First off those templates are extremely slow, they have so many unnecessary Javascript components embedded into a single screen, once people visit your website, they would know you've used Wordpress due to how slow & inefficient your website is. The purchased template is super hard to modify, one change leads to several other changes and you will end up spending more time than you planned to if you had built your own theme from scratch. Clients want proper customisation, they do not want their website to look like every other website on the internet and they pay premium for it. You will end up making peanuts if all you do is install Wordpress templates with little customisation for low paying clients or companies. As no serious client will pay you $1000 for a Wordpress website, but when it is a theme built from scratch, you charge any amount. For example websites like CNN was initially built with Wordpress and it was super fast. |

Maybe I'm wrong on this but I see that you're using one country as a reference to "abroad" & the country itself is not fully Western. Your comparison of experience of women in South America is night & day compared to places like Canada or other Western countries. It's like comparing Brazilian women to women in other parts of the world who are less beautiful than them by a mile, It is not a true comparison. Also, most Nigerians don't usually Japa to South America so their experience of women will be completely different from yours. Nigerians moving to Germany or UK/Canada where black African men are not in demand, they won't experience this at all. Only 1% of Nigerian men who Japa can relate to your experience. tensazangetsu20: 5 Likes |

Family / Re: Dangers Of Marrying An ALREADY MADE Man? by tosinhtml: 3:32pm On Aug 27 |
Whether ready-Made or half made, what will be will be. The major issue here is that most women think they have the “glory” in quote to marry ready-made men, but the truth is that not every woman has that destiny. Some are destined to marry a poor man. So just because your friend is “Sharon Ooja” that married a billionaire does not mean you will be that lucky. Your own might be Babatunde a Lawyer earning 50k per month in a Lagos Law firm. |
Romance / Re: Lectures About The Analogies Of Women You Should Know As A Man. by tosinhtml: 11:36pm On Aug 20 |
MikeofKd: I'm happy this virgin woman myth is being debunked, nothing more useless in value than a religious virgin woman in actual reality. Once you meet them, you'd see they don't have much to offer other than the virginity. Character zero, career & upward mobility zero, financial knowledge zero. They don't strive to add values in other areas at all. I rather have someone with usable material value than being a virgin. The usual excuse is that, once she is a virgin, she would not cheat & that's a lie. Infidelity has nothing to do with virginity. 1 Like |

The Brits hardly take their baths, they can go 2 weeks without getting into a bathroom. I'm not having any of that bullshit way of life. |

The government is going to Tax workers to death going this route, the current government is coming for every ounce of income that is generated by citizens. Nigeria is struggling with inflation and a weak exchange rate. The Lagos State government wants to increase its tax base, but taxing remote workers and firms is too early. Nigeria's tech industry is still growing, and this move might hurt it. Companies hire Nigerian remote workers because it's cheaper and flexible. If they are taxing them, it drives businesses away, reducing job opportunities. 1 Like 1 Share |
Programming / Tax Them To Death: Lagos Plans To Get N200 Billion Annually From Remote Workers by tosinhtml: 11:52am On Jul 30 |
The Lagos State government has unveiled an ambitious plan to generate N200 billion annually by expanding its income tax base to include remote workers and leveraging digital solutions for enhanced revenue collection. According to the synopsis document for the EKO Revenue Plus Summit, which is expected to hold on September 25th and 26th, 2024, with the theme “Unlocking New Revenue Streams for Lagos State”, this southwest state plans to raise N5 trillion internally generated revenue (IGR) from four major sectors. One of such sectors is the digital economy, through which Lagos State plans to introduce a Resident Global Digital Citizen Tax Management System, targeting remote workers, foreign firms, and digital influencers. Blockchain and Tokenization Agenda: Lagos State plans to implement tokenization for real estate, infrastructure, and intellectual property. This project will require N500 million and aims to generate N100 billion annually from income fees and permits.

TheOldGods: Nice one bro, I like positive stories like this & your head is in the right place. In truth most people will not be rich by moving to the UK, but it gives access to travel across the EU, access to foreign passport for kids, access to opportunities that you may not have gotten from Nigeria. Remote jobs which were not available to you will now be available because you relocated. So it depends on what is important to you as a whole. In all of these positives, It is tough to live above average life in the UK because of income brackets, extremely tough I tell you. Saving money in the UK is also extremely hard. You spend all of it on bills bills bills. So every thing has positives & negatives. 2 Likes |
Travel / Re: My Journey To Hanoi, Vietnam by tosinhtml: 1:12am On Jul 17 |
NaijaVietnamese: I sincerely do not understand why you are comparing yourselves to the lowest of low in Nigeria in terms of salaries. Why not compare yourself to Bank Managers, MD, ED of banks. My point is, there are better countries to relocate to, nobody should be relocating to Vietnam to earn peanuts please unless you were totally jobless in Nigeria. |
Travel / Re: My Journey To Hanoi, Vietnam by tosinhtml: 1:07am On Jul 17 |
NaijaVietnamese: There is absolutely nothing to work my dear, I was earning (times * 2) of what I was being offered in Vietnam in 2018, Two years later I started earning (times * 10) of the same amount in Lagos Nigeria. My company even hired in Vietnam & I was earning over 50% of my colleagues who are in Vietnam. There is nothing in Vietnam apart from teaching jobs as you say & no teaching Job in Vietnam can pay me $7k per month, so why will change my mindset over peanuts. My childhood friend who lives in Vietnam earns $500 per month, that is peanut salary for someone who is hustling abroad. |

No matter what anyone says, I will never encourage anyone to go to Vietnam. Economically the place is dead, we are suppose to be economic migrants, If a place is not doing better than Nigeria economically, then why go there. |

tensazangetsu20: Ooo anything I read Vietnam, I used to get traumatised. I had an interview with a company there in 2018, that was the meanest and worst interview ever. After 6 rounds of interviews, they made me an offer, and the money was so bad that I started crying. There were 6 difficult interview stages. I did: 1st Interview - Codility 2nd - Engineering manager interview 3rd - Take home test 4th - Whiteboard Live Coding - pair to pair interview 5th - Design challenge & Refactoring a code within specified time 6th - Live Interview with 6 Developers throwing questions at me. I could have asked them upfront about the pay range but because I was desperate, I just believed the offer will be good as an International company. I also did not research very well about Vietnam because that country's economic value is in shambles even though they have great social amenities, 24/7 power & good roads. A friend of mine who travelled to Vietnam 10 years ago came back with nothing, all the money he made there was peanuts, In fact I was better off in Nigeria financially when he came back, now he is desperately trying to relocate to Australia via the Australia Skilled Select program but every thing is super tight atm. Now he is stuck in Nigeria. 2 Likes |
Programming / Re: Planning To Move From Graphics Design To Frontend, Is It Worth It? by tosinhtml: 1:01am On Jul 10 |
KobeMan: You need to be aware that to be elevated in your career and exceptionally good at what you do, then it means you have to choose one. If you want to go fully into Freelancing (Upwork, Fiverr etc) then having both skill is great but if you want to have a steady 9-5, then you have to choose one. Only crappy Nigerian companies hire one person to do both jobs, designer & Front-end developer. Secondly, you will need to move from "Graphic Designer" tag to "Product Designer" in the future because that is where the career path is, so that you can work for companies like Toptal etc. Choose your career path early, else you'd be caught in limbo in the future. |
