The day you breakdown, they would simply find another means of survival..........

Are you fully sorted, you now own your own property, have enough savings in the bank, pension plan, life insurance, loads of investments portfolios.........

NEVER BE THE GOD ABROAD, YOUR MONEY WOULD END UP IN BEER PARLOURS AND ON FOLAKE'S FOR THE NIGHT.........

For your parents, render financial assistance (within reason)..... Others can sling their hook .....

Very apt

And the most consistent, he has been on the billionaire list for about 35 years. He must be doing something right.


Majority of the current billionaires about 80% of them won't be on the list in the next 10 years and will be out of the list for good

Hello Everyone. Need advice. I'm into IT working full time 8-4 in manchester. Bills back home and other responsibilities are building up. What other side hussles can one do? I thought of combining this with care jobs (part time from friday night to sunday morning). How feasible is this? Also, referals for part time care jobs within manchester would be helpful.

So it clearly means, no recipe for a perfect union........

I still insist on luck & gamble.........

Lexusgs430:
Both people involved, have to be delibrate and intentional.... Towards making their union work, nobody is the boss or the slave, they are joint CEO's of equal standing, in this consortium of marriage, working together, ensuring their going concern, is indeed, going in the right direction ........

Exactly � Boss

If both partners don't see it as obligations to make it work, it will surely crumble within their own eyes.

Lexusgs430:
My in-laws are still happily together, but my parents are not really together (in the true sense of the word)........

Should my wife have used this parameter to Judge, going by your principles........ She would have not even looked at me twice ............

So I say again...... It's a mixture of luck & gamble.......

No luck or gamble oga Lexusgs430...its your daily cautious decision to make your marriage work

Lexusgs430:
When I look back at my friend's marriages and about 60% of them are divorced......... When we chat, they always tell me my marriage was the least expected to stand, considering all the circumstances involved.......

Marriage is indeed a mixture of luck & gamble........

It's because both of you decided to make it work daily...


Been married for upto a decade now and we decided to make it work and it's been working for us blissfully by the grace of God

Ixodes:
I do not agree completely with the bolded...you married a woman from a good home who simply replicated same and you are a good man yourself simple. correct me if am wrong. you want to get married look at the parents of your partner what you see is what you get.

Not completely true...

Both husband and wife decide to make marriage work deliberately....

I have attached the price history of my buy to let property.

I'm the second owner. The first owner bought the flat brand new and I guess the property was overpriced/over valued as at 2007. New builds are notoriously overpriced, hence why those looking to achieve the best returns in property investment avoid them.

Today, that same flat and others in the block have an open market value of at least 160k and those that have sold their flats recently achieved way above that figure.

I haven't spent a penny on any home improvement apart from painting the walls when a new tenant moves in (I'm blessed to have had 2 longterm tenants in the last 6+years) and changing the original carpets which were off white in colour.

My advice - do your research carefully, read the home/valuation report, read about the history of the area, is the area notorious for crime (anti social behavior, vandalism,etc) and find out if the council is planning any redevelopment or rejuvenation around the area (e.g. demolishing houses in that area to build modern properties,etc)

My oga, when am ready l will come for tutorials for home owners association Thanks

Request to speak to a gentleman named Vick

He provides mortgage advice/services for properties in England and Scotland

Thanks so much

Ralphlauren:
Yes, you can. I currently have 2 mortgages. My source of income and affordability tests were based on my contract jobs.

I used very good mortgage brokera/advisors that sourced the lowest possible interest rates for me though.

Anything is possible if you have a very good mortgage broker that knows his stuff.

Which mortgage broker do you use please?

Lexusgs430:
We can't keep them all........

Human wants are unlimited, whilst resources are very limited.........

Along the way, you make other gains on the path of landlordism..........

Quite true Boss

Safeob27:
Thank you mamatukwas for opening this thread, I can already sense that it would be of immense help. Hopefully I’ll be in the UK by September God willing and thinking of how I’ll manage for 4 year old son. He can be very very naughty and cries a lot despite his age. He’s the type that cries at the supermarket , in school , church , everywhere and his sister is well behaved. Might sound somehow but thinking of leaving him in Nigeria with his grandparents because all efforts made to stop this habits have not been successful for now.

carry him come joor, my girl the cry too

many of the oyibo children that come to my hospital de cry well well too


every child has the right to cry, but no go de beat him oooo

Thanks Mamatukwas for this forum

Lexusgs430:
I witnessed the dot-com crash, my mortgage was still affordable and I pulled through successfully.........

Sold the property afterwards, and ran with my gains ...........

Why you run with your gains...l was thinking you should keep it as longterm

Lexusgs430:
Another real life UK story, happened a few days ago ......

A known hypertensive man, was prescribed medications, to lower his BP levels.........

He did his own research about the prescribed drugs, DR Google informed him that possible side effects, could be weakness of his 3rd leg ........

Rather than returning to his GP, voice his concerns/or switching meds or let's assume his 3rd leg got weak.... Be placed on the magic blue pill, he completely refused to take his meds and not medically voice his concerns.......

He was at the restaurant last week enjoying himself last week, he had a cardiac event, rushed to hospital, after a few days, his life support machine was turned off.......

Not only did his 3rd leg eventually die, he also lost all the functions of all his body parts......... All body parts no longer required by him, body parts might be harvested for others to benefit.........

HEALTH IS WEALTH.......

NB : He also did not see the benefits of having a life assurance policy. They have now opened a go fund me page, towards burial expenses etc etc...... ..

Look after yourselves, nobody else will .........

Lol at Dr Google

Many have gone and will still go if we refuse to learn from others...

Ticha:
Because you need somewhere to live and paying rent is paying for a service like any other service. The fact that someone makes a profit from it is neither here nor there. We can translate that into saying buying food is a waste of money as we'll just shit it out. Not everyone can afford a mortgage even with the best will in the world. I advocate one having their own property somewhere mainly because as immigrants, we would really struggle at retirement. To access the full raft of a state pension (which is peanuts by the way), you would have had to pay 35 years worth of NI. Therefore it is absolutely necessary to have a retirement plan which could be a property (the most difficult asset class to pull money out of as it is not liquid cash) that is paid down somewhere cheap for example or money funneled into shares

Thanks Ticha..

Getting a good dividend paying stocks is another good way of retirement if one can get good volumes of dividend aristocrat stocks

Try a bundle mortgage-loan deal...... A separate loan might affect your credit search loan limit.......

Recently I went to see an aunt in UK who was visiting from naija and during my time with her, she attended online Catholic Church mass , then I heard prayer for Nigeria in distress....I said whatttttttttt. I remember that prayer growing up, I left Nigeria 18 years ago.

You mean till now Catholic are still saying a prayer for Nigeria in distress .... daily the country is getting more and more in distress .I didn't even know what to say . I weak like fried over ripe dodo

At least you for pray nah....A day is like 1000 years in the Lord's eyes, so e never reach 1 day self...

LagosismyHome:
The way we pray in Nigeria ehnnn yet many terrible things are done by our people. I just cannot process the two

Religion is a business centre in Nigeria

mex551:
might not be massage oil. Could be anointing oil that the tenant sprayed while praying in the house. I had an experience when i was in Naija. Sprayed in the whole house once and the mark is still on the ceiling uptill now. It's been over 3 years Personal house though

Permanent ANOINTING

LagosismyHome:
The domiciliary care work industry don't pay for travel so you can be driving up and down for work for 15hours but paid 8hours. Its very draining so its also important you are sure of what the work entails before you commit yourself

Now with tier 2, employers are putting payback clause amount if you leave early . ... that i blame home office. They collect as hugh as 2k in fees per employee

hussle of an immigrants no easy. Citizens have more ability to vex and not work

Very unfortunate situation for immigrants from Nigeria....its well
