depends on how you view it. But women are manipulative. Men are easily manipulated.
not exactly so...

women who really love their men are easily manipulated by their men cheesy cheesy

so it's a case of what the man /woman in question is to you

that determine how well manipulated you will be
As a man

or as a woman cheesy grin

But in reality women own the world. Call it manipulation if you want but behind every powerful man theres a woman.. Men might be the puppet on the stage. But the woman is the puppeteer. Get a world leader who adores his wife/gf/daughter and watch closely, majority of his descisions may be based on what she likes and dislikes. A mans weakness centers on his libido or ego. A woman that can manipulate either or both....

That dude doesnt live in the UK. He is among the lazy Nigerian youth we are trying to educate. They waste years waiting for a lost uncle to come take them abroad. Time that would have been spent doing something meaningful. On every street in Nigeria people are building duplexes with a value over 35 million naira, paying 300k per term for their kids.. money is exchanging hands for those actively engaged. Ugosample comes from a lost generation of "negative thinkers association of Nigeria". At 45yrs he is still waiting for his uncle to take him to America to work like a dog

Pls go and read about h1b visa....
This is a visa that brings in over 150 thousand professional immigrants into the usa every year....
Taking up jobs with salary up to 100 thousand dollars....

Tier 2 visa in the UK brings in professionals to work in NHS, IT and high end manufacturing....
Most jobs in that category are over 50 thousand pounds......

Most European countries also have respective high skilled visa for skilled professionals....
I'm really surprised how ignorant u are about these things because I know a lot of naija IT guys who left for Germany using the highly skilled route....

Now I know you've never been to the UK, you have just been using SENSE to reply me and google, youung man I am a payroll manager (the department which deals with people pay )

If you are on a £100,000 salary in the Uk, your salary is taxed 45%

On your payslip all you will see that is going to your bank account every month will be £4,583

45% percent of your yearly must madantoroly go to the govt as Income tax

Now convert £4583 to naira every month and tell me if it is up to 3 million naira

Chai I even thought you knew a lot about the uk Kai so I have been wasting my time talking to you

So you thought all the £100,000 your friend earns goes to her chai see ignorance ooo
first of all
I'm not the guy who is going back and forth with you

and second
I am Very familiar with the tax system (did a bit while I was in school) and I know for sure that paying 45% on your 100k income is bollocks
both in Nigeria and Britain

it's a graduated tax system
You don't pay 45% flat

if you do that, you must be stupid

and besides
there are deductibles you can claim back
depending on your circumstances

so forget that story

that said
someone making 3m monthly (which BTW are not so many btw; that's 5 percentile ) does not make him better off than someone making say 6k pounds a month in Britain

the money may look good because it's a poverty stricken country (it's actually good money to be honest)
but the toll it takes on you to live a normal life in NiggerArea is so so much
financially and otherwise

me given the choice to choose where to live with a £100k income

I'll go to the Caribbean first
then may be American south (Miami )
before I even think of NiggerArea


but it's all good
people's perspectives differ

What's your friend being an investment banker being to do with the points I made in this previous posts.

I never said Nigerians never had good job, my argument was middle class uk like this uk friend on £100,000 can never be better off than an equivalent middle class or high class earning the equivalent of 2 or 3 million naira per month

Everytime you are just giving irrelevant examples all the time
so someone earning 3m in naija is better than one earning £
100k a year?

You still have age on your side, I can set you up. Take my offer and you will make a minimum of 20,000 naira daily. The days of traveling to America and western Europe is officially over.

Ever body has a point ....nigeria by global standards of living is messed up cos 90 percent of citizen are suffering from chronic poverty to unemployment to poor infastructure or insecurity....but u can hammer legally or illegal faster in Nigeria cos of the upside down system ....but in develop society your life and income is program for pay bills and good living not accumulation of money that can be enjoy and for the majority of citizen to be fairly ok .....both present and future generation....in Nigeria we tend to accumulate cos the uncertainty is so obvious
you, my brother have hit the nail on the head with your last statement

its what I say all the time

the craze to accumulate in Nigeria is a by product of a failed system that begets uncertainty

it's that uncertainty of what tomorrow brings
that is why civil servant is stealing
that is why bankers are stealing
that us why politicians are stealing

You don't know what you are talking about. Nigeria has a lot of entrepreneurs who are adding value to the lives of their fellow citizens through their businesses. Do you read widely about Nigeria's businesses at all? How many States in Nigeria have you visited? Don't talk about what you don't know, please.
I have visited at least 16 states

Name 15 companies in Nigeria that hire at least 40000 employees nationwide

from what you wrote
you have little idea of the value addition i mean

what you are mistaking for value addition is RENT SEEKING
and to a lesser degree crony capitalism

we cannot have many companies adding REAL VALUE in the real sense of it and NiggerArea is a cesspit.

You see. Hard work pays in the west. No matter what sort of work you engage in as long as it is not crime, but back in Nigeria, you can work so hard like a craze person, and you still wont get rewarded for it. People are also ready to work in Nigeria, but the jobs dont even exist.
the reward system is skewed in NiggerArea

what do you really expect

Crony capitalists and their girlfriends and hangars on are mostly the ones having the spoils with near zero value addition
the richest in America have their valuable companies wjivj cumulatively add even more value by employing tens of thousands, paying them salaries across board, and even paying their tavee to the govt, and producing goods for the world (not just themselves)

can we say same for the so called mofos in NiggerArea who claim they are "well off?"

we have those committing serious fraud in the banks and other companies in NiggerArea lining their pockets (that guy who was nabbed stealing 11m was just ONE of many incidents )
we have politicians and politically connected lining their pockets too.
then the girlfriends (you know them; buying properties left and right with no commensurate source of cashflow cheesy )

then we have the unscrupulous business men circumventing protocol to line their pockets too


while the teachers, the hustlers, the lecturers, the doctors etc are mostly getting peanuts cheesy

anyways NiggerArea is a country that worship money

Even the UK prime minister is not on £130,000 a year, he is on £120,000

You are delusionally trying your best now trying to give people wages they cant earn here in the Uk,

How can you say you know several people on £60,000 and they average normal people.

Do you even know how what the average salary and minimum wage in the UK is so you can have an idea of who earns £60,000 or not

And please you dont have to live in Banana Island to be middle class in Nigeria, Go to Owerri, Porharcourt, Enugu, Calabar and see young rich middle class millionaires. There kids end up attending expensive private schools in Nigeria and end up paying raw cash about £9,000 for tuition abroad.

Please can you tell me how many people who live in the UK can afford to pay £9,000 every year like its nothing. Please even that your friend that earns £60,000, tell him to his needs to send his kid abroad and pay £9,000 and see if he wont commit suicide.

Youve been to the British Parliament, there is rug in front, it looks clean, well done, Have you been to the Brunel President Palace or the Saudi Arabian parliament, then you will know there is more to what youve seen.

most of the elite /rich class in that nigger continent (especially NiggerArea) are crony capitalists and fvckin rent seekers with near zero value addition

look around in NIGERIA
it's clear for all to see
in that kind of setting
it's easier to amass a whole lot, when you are close to "that place"

Most billionaires in America are linked to value adding companies, with audited statements and filed tax returns

from Starbucks to Snapchat to Amazon TO KFC to Facebook to Google to Home Depot, Microsoft, Dell, etc etc
you can link them to their value adding companies employing tena of thousands each and having a multiplier effect on the countty


the so called riff raffs in Nigger Africa (NiggerArea )
how many of them can you link to value generating outfits like these
Apart from day Dangote and a few others

The aim of every civilized society is to ensure that a large percentage of the population can afford the necessities of life and have some extra to enjoy some luxuries. This is what the USA, Western Europe, South Korea and Japan have accomplished. There is a lot of debt in these societies which is a fact and the taxes are high but that's the price they are willing to pay for having 80% of the population on at least middle class levels who can afford a university education, live in a house, drive a new car and take a vacation. The taxes are a means of supporting the infrastructure needs of the society and ensure things work unlike in Nigeria where nobody pays taxes and things don't work.

The Op is right when he says that many Westerners live on debt (research has shown there is only USD500 cash for every individual American. The rest is credit!) but its this credit system that is the reason for the stability in these countries. This is something the Chinese government after years of export led growth wants to see happen in their society with their emphasis on domestic consumption.

The thing about Africa and other developing regions is that the cash based economy promotes inequality with a few rich people and masses of poor people. This was the situation in Europe before World war 2. The lack of a credit system to get a home or car is why we drive second hand cars which on the long run cost more to maintain than new cars and rent houses. This is also why many business that deal with non essentials find it difficult to survive here as many people have to survive daily in this country.

But on the flip side, its much easier to get rich than in developed countries as there are still many things and features taken for granted over there that is sorely lacking here and anybody who has the balls to venture into them will hit it big. As for the sentiments expressed here, it's every individual's prerogative to choose what he/she wants. Go getters who are innovative and want to strike it big will easily be pissed with the Western economic model and prefer turbulent countries like Nigeria where they can set up businesses. But for those who just want to live a quiet life and don't want all the money in the world (Good job, meritocracy, good pay, a house and a car with some money for vacation etc) without bothering about electricity or security of live as well as the rule of law, the Western economic model of credit and 50% taxation is a good pay off for that.
