A man city fan?

EmmanuelScott1:
I feel divided, a true Chelsea fan supporting mumuchester united because of CR7 chai, cr7 will score and man u will lose

You better support your club regardless the love for CR7

viyon02:
Yeah, that is traits of a gentleman, but here in Nigeria gentlemanes will not put food on your table. You need to add little craziness to your attitude for you to be completed.

Exactly.

But the post is not about being gentle,it is about being respected.

A no nonsense person can as well be respected.

1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to;

2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the person that borrowed you remember or ask for it. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes.

3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is giving you a lunch/dinner.

4. Don’t ask awkward questions like ‘Oh so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids’ or ‘Why didn’t you buy a house?’ Or why don't you buy a car? For God’s sake it isn’t your problem;

5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesn’t matter if it is a guy or a girl, senior or junior. You don’t grow small by treating someone well in public;

6. If you take a taxi with a friend and he/she pays now, try paying next time;

7. Respect different shades of opinions. Remember what's 6 to you will appear 9 to someone facing you. Besides, second opinion is good for an alternative;

8. Never interrupt people talking. Allow them to pour it out. As they say, hear them all and filter them all;

9. If you tease someone, and they don’t seem to enjoy it, stop it and never do it again. It encourages one to do more and it shows how appreciative you're;

10. Say “thank you” when someone is helping you.

11. Praise publicly. Criticize privately;

12. There’s almost never a reason to comment on someone’s weight. Just say, “You look fantastic.” If they want to talk about losing weight, they will;

13. When someone shows you a photo on their phone, don’t swipe left or right. You never know what’s next;

14. If a colleague tells you they have a doctors' appointment, don’t ask what it’s for, just say "I hope you’re okay". Don’t put them in the uncomfortable position of having to tell you their personal illness. If they want you to know, they'll do so without your inquisitiveness;

15. Treat the cleaner with the same respect as the CEO. Nobody is impressed at how rude you can treat someone below you but people will notice if you treat them with respect;

16. If a person is speaking directly to you, staring at your phone is rude;

17. Never give advice until you’re asked;

18. When meeting someone after a long time, unless they want to talk about it, don’t ask them their age and salary;

19. Mind your business unless anything involves you directly - just stay out of it;

20. Remove your sunglasses if you are talking to anyone in the street. It is a sign of respect. Moreso, eye contact is as important as your speech.

21. Never talk about your riches in the midst of the poor. Similarly, don't talk about your children in the midst of the barren.

That's where CR7 is different. He performs outstandingly under pressure. Wake up and smell the roses.

Don't worry I will smell the roses after the match

God will help us.

Too much pressure on Ronaldo will make him even perform lesser than lingard's.


I smell flop.

It's no longer news that times are hard in Nigeria and that it cuts across virtually every part of the country, with the country experiencing one of its worst inflation rates in recent years. The result of this inflation has seen prices of goods and commodities rose astronomically, with many things which were cheap before now incredibly expensive. Foods and foodstuffs are not exempted from this astronomical as food inflation, according to official sources, rose in May to 22.28%, compared with 22.72% in April 2021.



The implication of food inflation has been damning for the common Nigerian especially, as they have been on the brunt receiving end of the anomaly. There have been numerous complaints by many Nigerians as they groan about the increase in the price of food items, especially as the naira seems to have lost its purchasing power. For instance, food items such as garri and beans which about a year ago, were sold for about N200/bowl and N450/bowl respectively are now sold at N450 and N1200/bowl.




These are just a few of the many food items whose prices have gone up, with many of them simply becoming out of reach of many common Nigerians. With many Nigerians now left with no choice but to reduce the number of times they eat per day, it could be wise to eat more of certain popular foods. The rationale behind the choice of such foods is that they possess certain qualities which enable them to easily fill up your tummy and satisfy you, hence you tend to consume less of them and may even save money in the long run.


Such foods, known as filling foods tend to have four characteristics that are unique to them. These characteristics include being high in protein, having high fibre content, having high water or moisture content, and being low in energy density. It is important to note that we are not saying the foods come cheap, but that by virtue of them containing either one or all the unique characteristics listed above, they can easily fill up your stomach and you will eat fewer foods, than if you eat other types of foods. Below are 6 of such foods:

1. Boiled Potato


Cooked, unpeeled potatoes are rich in minerals and vitamins such as potassium and vitamin C respectively. They also have high water content, carbs, as well as moderate fibre and protein content.

2. Eggs


Eggs have an incredibly high protein composition contain all nine essential amino acids. They also are incredibly healthy and nutrient-dense and could fill you up easily.

3. Meat


Beef, lamb, pork and other lean meats are also very filling as they are high in protein.

4. Vegetables

Vegetables have high volume and are great reservoirs of water and their high fibre content will add bulk to your meals, helping you to easily get filled up and reduce how much food you eat.

5. Legumes


Legumes such as beans, peas, peanuts and others are loaded with protein and have high fibre content, in addition to having a relatively low energy density. All these characteristics make them an ideal filling food type.

6. Fruits


Fruits have low energy density and also contain lots of fibre, which may slow digestion and help you feel full for longer. The best fruits in this regard are apples and oranges.

Life is believed to begin at age 40. Before you turn 40, you should have reached some financial milestones in life to make your years as enjoyable as possible.

I share your financial steps you need to take before you turn 40. If you have reached the age of 40, you can still begin to achieve these financial goals, because I think it is never too late to achieve something in life. if you have the commitment and courage.

The list below shows my personal recommendations. You have the choice to make them disappear or not. Still, I think your over-40s would be better if you reached those milestones before you were 40.

1. Pay off debt: Debt can be a major setback in your journey to financial security, especially compound interest debt. You must do everything in your power to pay off all of our debts from those with the highest interest rates.

Your goal should be to lead a debt-free life. Pay off your debt and make sure you don't take it back. You have more peace when you have no debts. Business loans are an exception. However, you should consider other ways to raise capital for your business before considering a business loan.

2. Build marketable skills: If you can do what others can’t do, they’re willing to pay for it. What skills do you have that other people would be willing to pay for? If you don’t have the skills yet, go learn it today. This is very important!

Try to learn a skill that is not common. If everyone can do it, the value will not be high. If you learn or develop a rare skill that you can do almost perfectly and that has a good demand, you can’t go bankrupt because your skills will always give you income.

Some good skills you can learn are graphic design, tablet publishing, hairdressing, catering and decorating, tailoring, vehicle mechanic, generator, computer repair and networking, computer programming, web design, welding and manufacturing, copywriting, nursing , carpentry, tiling, mosaic, application development, POP roof installation, electrical work and many more.

Most of these skills are not taught in colleges and universities, but they can feed you. Therefore, even if you are a graduate, you can learn the skills of someone who has one or in a skill development center. It aims to have at least a good marketable skill before the age of 40.

3. Develop a search for financial education: information is dynamic. New information comes out every day. What you know yesterday may be out of date. Therefore, you should always be alert to new information. You need to make an effort to update your financial knowledge.

Before you turn 40, you need to develop your reading skills. Reading is one of the greatest ways to gain knowledge. You need to learn regularly and quickly. Read good books and research online. For information, you need to learn how to use search engines like Google, Bing, AOL.com, Ask.com, and more.

Get a financial mentor: You need to follow someone who has done what you want them to do to prevent mistakes from being communicated by others and speed up your financial progress.

One way to follow a mentor is to read all of their books or articles.

5. Have an emergency fund -

The need to always have an emergency fund cannot be stressed. An emergency fund is money that goes to your bank account for serious emergencies such as job losses, illness, accidents, disability, and so on. Experts recommend that your monthly living cost be as an emergency fund for at least 6 months.

This money should have good liquidity, but it's best not to keep it in a savings account where you have access to it and for depreciation. You can save the emergency fund to a mutual fund account.

6. Start your own part-time or full-time business - if you’re not starting a business before the age of 40, when will you start it? When do you grow old? Business is a risk and the older you get, the less appetite and risk aversion.

Try starting a business before you turn 40. You can do this part time if you are employed. This will help you learn from your mistakes, grow, and gain experience. Business mistakes and failures get better when you are younger than at age.

7. Get married and have all your children: You have a more balanced view of married life with children. You may not agree with me, but I know that's true.

Married people almost jump into action without thinking. As a married person, think things through various perspectives and think before you move.

Think about the consequences of your actions, as it will affect your family in some way. You think about the couple and also make more balanced decisions, including business decisions, because two good bosses are better than one.

Having your children under the age of 40 also has several benefits, as it helps you grow with your children and helps carry the financial burden of raising your children while you are still young.

8. Build a solid base of passive income streams from paper assets. Paper assets are one of the greatest ways rich people make money almost effortlessly! Warren Buffett is one of the richest men on earth because of his paper assets. Imagine you have invested N50 000 000 in a mutual fund with a low annual interest rate of 10%. This means that it would earn approximately N5,000,000 annually and N 4,16,666 monthly. If you continue to invest interest and capital, you will increase even more in the coming years. Therefore, the rich are getting richer because they use the power compound to use the paper resources.

Before the age of 40, this is the best time to buy a lot of paper assets. Invest in stocks, treasury bills, bonds, mutual funds and other paper assets. He is interested in a wide range of paper resources.

9. Investing in real estate: Investing in real estate is one of the best investments you can ever make because it is always appreciated in value over time. In addition to food, rental housing costs are one of the biggest expenses for the family.

Before you turn 40, it would be good to build your house. See here how you can build your low-income home. In the worst case, even if you haven’t built a house, try to buy land before you’re 40 years old.

10. You have your own farm: Have you thought about how people without farmers would survive? You can say, ‘I don’t have to be a farmer, because I can always buy the food I need’. Let me ask you: What if you have money to buy food and there is no food to buy because there are no farmers?

Even if you don’t want to grow full time, try a backyard garden where they plant vegetables. This will help you appreciate the wonderful work that farmers do.

Investing in agriculture can also be a good way to build wealth. There is always a market available for agricultural products. I have written several articles on agro-industry and how you can benefit from it.

11. Start giving to others: You can get as much wealth and wealth as you can, but if you can’t find a way to help others, you won’t know what the accomplishment is. The true measure of life does not lie in how much you have, but in how much you give.

Start allocating a portion of your monthly income to help others, especially the needy, children, and the elderly. You can take responsibility for sponsoring a disadvantaged child through school. You can adopt a child. You can meet the needs of disadvantaged children and the elderly on a monthly basis.

I can really do this without the stress of writing articles and maintaining this blog as I don’t get a reasonable financial benefit from it. My joy, though, is that this blog is helping thousands of people overcome poverty and remain financially stable.

Start handing out people now. You don’t have to be very rich to help others. Give what little you have because it opens more doors of resources. There are many people around you who need your help and help. You can deliver cash or to babies in need, disabled and motherless at home. You can sponsor a poor child through school. There are inexhaustible ways to give to others.

Bonus Tips:

1. Write a will. Many financial experts recommend getting a lawyer to help you make a will that legally grants ownership of your properties to everyone you want when you go ahead. This is especially important in conflicting families.

2. Buy an insurance policy: Several financial experts also advise you to buy life insurance. The goal is to give your loved ones a financial advantage if you go further.

There you have it. It is not good for anyone to collect information unless it is used. The choice is yours.

It depends on what you find out from professionals in the space. Many times what you read online isn't necessarily true. Seek out business analysts on Linkedin and find out what their day to day life is like, salary range, challenges etc.

Messi is a Man city player

An inspirational writer once wrote “Don’t be in such a rush to reach a goal that you reach the goals before you are ready”. Put your heart into a goal but don't rush, good things in life take time.

We are in a generation where people prefer instant gratification to long-term enjoyment. Little wonder why the world is filled with confused and dissatisfied individuals. People make grievous mistakes and live the rest of their lives in regret.

This article exposes you to five very important things that you should never rush in life.

1. Building A Business
You have got a great idea, so what's next? Raise a capital to start up? Don’t be in a hurry. Having a great idea does not equal having a successful business. A lot of people are so excited about their plans that they immediately venture into execution them. Building a business is an important thing you should never rush in life.

Before you start up that business take time to ask yourself little questions. Questions like if that idea aligns with your passion and future goals? If you will be able to stick to the venture in hard times?

You should also learn more about your proposed business, network with other people in your niche and work on building quality services and products before starting up.

2. Marriage
Walking down the aisle with someone to spend forever with them isn't something to be rushed into. It is a critical life decision most people allowed the pressure from family and friends to make them dive into marriage.

Marriage is a sensitive aspect of every human's life and you must be sure to be ready before you commit. Being in your 30s does not make you prepared for marriage. Marriage goes beyond age.

Asides even if you’re prepared, is your intended partner willing? No doubt it is not possible to fully understand someone but then you must take your time to study and noticed certain behaviours of your partner.

Always bear in mind that being married does not mean that a person will change or drop certain characteristics. If your partner does not change before marriage, the chances are that they may likely not change even after marriage.


3. Large Financial Commitments
You need think through and weigh your options often before you get into any substantial financial obligations. So, maybe you just got some considerable amount of money, on your list is buying a car or you saw a house for sale at fair price and you are thinking of acquiring a bank loan to purchase it.

For getting a good ride or home of your own is lovely. But do you think you can manage them based on your present financial level?



4. Making A Promise
Promises mean nothing without the accompanying action. No matter how small you may think of promises, it has the potential of causing a massive hurt to others, if not fulfilled.

To make a promise is to put your reputation on the line. Your integrity is a valuable asset that you should not trade with. One reason why people make promises and fail to keep, is that the promises were made hastily.

Hence an anonymous writer wrote, don't make a promise when you are happy. People don't respect you because you make Commitments, they do when you keep your Commitments. For this reason you should be careful when you give your words to others



5. Making Your Relationship Public
How do you feel about celebrity breakups? Well, many at times the primary causes of those breakups especially the fresh ones, is the media and publicity.

Too many eyes on a relationship is bad enough and worse when the relationship is a new one. Often, people get carried away by their sweetness of the early stage of their relationship that they hastily start expressing love in public, social media especially.

We know that good things take time but we get carried away by our desires that we end up rushing through things.
