Hmmm...
You want to bring your wife to USA and still want to use the subjugative laws on here to run her life abroad. Guy, for Away, there's no kinsmen to settle blue black punch marks you guys often decorate her with here in naija.

The laws there are pro-women, you do anyhow, you see anyhow.

Respect your wives abroad OR better still don't marry at all.

Teejay13:
Nigeria is in the hands of God.

Perhaps, a change in leadership might help us get out of this mess.

Abimloaded:
Girls don't put men in the "friend zone".

Men put themselves there.

Few will understand this.

Junnior:
Interesting. What if I did nothing wrong but they insult me and say I wronged them? Should I still apologize?

MJBOLT:

best zombie movie,how??

abbey621:
What's 28 million for people worth billions? When you have that much money, your thinking evolves beyond what common folks can phantom. You start thinking about the stars, existence, supernaturals. You stop reading history and story books and want to see things for yourself. The chance to see space, up close and personal is something 99.9% of the humans will never achieve, this is the type of goals billionaires aim for .

@WinterMinter Lol... I had to trace you down here and I found out that no one replied to this.

So let me help you.

You need skills to get ahead in Nigeria today and you can choose various skills. Most of my skills are digital skills.

However, you need one that is IN SYNC with your personality--one that you love

For a very young guy which I presume you are:

1. Make YouTube your number one resource for learning anything you want. Learn as much as you can, read as much as you... very very very important.

2. I would suggest learning digital skills as mentioned below and the reason is that it decentralizes your opportunity and makes you limitless.

a: Programming: Learn website design in coding languages like HTML, CSS, Jave Script...

Where can you learn? You can start from nairaland here

https://www.nairaland.com/programming

Other programming resources are: https://www.freecodecamp.org/ and W3Schools.com

b: Learn graphics design.

This one is also very good. The more you improve the more your chances of getting paid higher sums. Graphic designs is deployed for posters, Tshirts, large format printing, ID cards, business cards, TV promotions and so on.

One new trend of graphics design that can help pivot you in the website development mentioned above is UI/UX.

Having a skill here (UI/UX) means you can design what a website or app can look like, and you get to determine the feel and appeal of users. UI is simply "user interface" and a user interface is the skin, colour and features of the website or app, the feel and the appearance, just like the skin of your body. People will always judge you based on your looks and appearance as a human. A guy with beautiful skin and handsome face will always attrack girls and vice versa. It is same thing with UI/UX

C: Learn Video Editing:
The application of this is endless. People need videos to send messages in different from. we love entertainment, we love movies, we watch music videos and so many many more. To get a hang of basic video editing skills, please install INSHOT app on your phone and start basic editing with just your phone so that when you transition to PC, it won't be so hard for your to understand.

After you have gotten that, please find a PC software that you feel comfortable with, go to youtube and learn each aspect of video editing as it relates to the chose software. This makes it easy.

For instance, I use Filmora 9 for my basic video editing. Assuming I want to learn how to make people disappear in a video, I will go youtube and search "how to make object disappear in flimora 9" there will be many results that will hit me. Many will of them are often very useful.

Let me also point out that video editing and graphics design is not HARD... na just "point, drag, drop and click" be most of the processes involved and some hacks that you will learn as you progress. There are already templates that makes most of the visual effects super easy.

D. Learn digital marketing: This one is about how the whole or most parts of the internet business functions. From content marketing, to email marketing , to copywriting, to sales pages, to landing pages, to squeeze page, to social media marketing to media buying, blogging, SEO, PPC etc... it is large but there are course that helps with each.

Google can help you with your digital marketing journey and they are free see link below.

One good thing that I love about digital marketing is that you can use this skill to propel any offline business and out perform current players. There is nowhere you can't deploy digital marketing to help any business... especially in sector that has no monopoly ( as most business in Nigeria have a sort of monopoly with one man calling the shot). The goal of business is to make sales and digital marketing makes that possible.

You can also use your digital marketing skills to help programmers and webdevelopers sell their products... knowing how to sell and the tools needed to make that happen is an undisputable skill.

Now for offline skills: You can learn tiling, POP or electrical works etc. They are in high demand but with digital skills, you can use social media paid marketing techniques to out perform most of the guys in the sector.

So let me leave you with last advice that a respected friend gave me... "If you can't fly, run; if you cant run, walk; if you cant walk, crawl... but never be stagnant"

Enjoy

P.S.: let me add that anothe digital skill that you might need is Power Point, MicroSoft Words (beyond the basics), Excel and Spreedsheets. very very important and in demnd in the corporate world. Use YouTube to handle this and learn it all.

Just do you, bro. Acquire skill, be smart... the thing is, an average Nigerian girl date based on finance because of the economic situation of the country, while there is nothing wrong with that, using it to ridicule someone just because they ask you out is the height of disrespect.

You see, money in the bank is not the true test of the wealth of a man but the knowledge he has. I say this because some men get one lucky lottery hit and start flaunting it. You will think that they are really rich. When they lose that money, it is often hard to rise up again because they didn't really understand wealth creation. Now, a girl who meets such a man would use it to judge you who isn't up there yet. If you are working on a better project, she wouldn't know because of the instant gratification that she seeks.

Money comes and goes... but these Nigerian women are not interested in that. It is all about money now now now. A guy who would have made over 300M in his lifetime is currently owing me just 50K. After dragging so much, the wife had to open to me that dude is broke. My joy is, i know his wife had a genuine love for him and it was not the money she saw because he didn't pay much attention to her initially but she stood.

There are also men with money but with very very bad character, such that women who end up with them can't live, can't leave or can't do anything but live in frustration because of the money.

By humour I mean a generally brighter outlook on life, intelligent jokes, comic relief (as in when you're discussing something very serious and you slip in a humorous word play and she's smart enough to catch it, and even respond appropriately...)
