So you're a teacher 🙂? Teaching can give you good money to invest in business ventures if you know what you are doing. And you can be a freelance teacher and plan your teaching schedules at different schools. You can be a part time teacher and still earn good money. Cheers.
thank you

Sir we've spent so much money in the past few years
I can't even count how many times he have tried killing people, my family has been disgraced to the last because of him, from one problem to the other, I can't count how many times the village youth came to our house because of him as am talking to you now we're discussing on how to raise 50-80k so that we can get him arrested
We're not safe anymore and also am sorry to say this we don't love him again we just want him out reason I was asking if he can be be detained for a long period of time and if things changes we may Charge him to court and probably jail him or we take him to rehab
relocate your parents and siblings to a different place leave him there

Lol

So of all the people in your life, friends, families, colleagues, church/mosque members etc you think it's a stranger with no ties with you that can loan you ... Funny dude
honestly sir being a stranger doesn't matter ,what matters is integrity, honesty. Besides that, most people around were all struggling too and I came from a very poor family ,my colleagues were all teachers like me always living hands to mouth.

I have not escaped poverty but I am taking steps towards getting there and these are my steps

1. My first major move was quitting my job to venture into business which initially I regretted cos of hunger but after 3yrs it began to make sense

2. Lifestyle changed helped me alot because I trimmed the friends I kept to just 5 reasonable guys that don't drink, womanize or go clubbing all the time. Our weekends we only hangout to brainstorm and another move was to get married when I started making some money. You won't understand how much being single cost until you get married to a responsible and decent lady then you realize how much you've wasted. I got married to a decent and hardworking lady who helped me to cut down excessive wastes and she helps me to budget and cut down cost alot, like moving from an overpriced house to a budget friendly house, removing peer pressures like throwing parties for child dedications etc, my wife stopped all that


3. Aggressive saving and investing. Nearly everything I earn now goes into MMF and Equities and every year we purchase a plot of land to add to the plots we already have. Our goal is for the MMF and Equities to be able to match up what my business generated, when we get to that level we can pat ourselves on the back and say well done.


4. I bought back my time by empowering my younger siblings. Seeing him roam the streets without ambition pisses me off so I strategically brought him to hustle with me and in the process taught him the business. He sees money now and runs the store for me. His presence now doubles my sales because I market and he also markets as well and every transaction gets him his cut. A substantial sum and this helps buy back my time because I delegate tasks to him while I have freedom to explore other investment opportunities. Aside that he now plays a major role in catering for our aged parents, a burden that was solely on me before.


5. I know what works for me and what doesnt work. Before now I spent alot trading cryptos which only causes me losses and miseries, so I realized since 2017 all have done was waste money without making even a penny. So realized that crypto will never make me rich hence I blocked and deleted everyone and anything crypto related and focused on my business. Also with almost everything I earn going into MMF, equities and real estate, I am only left with money to feed my family so no room to be a nice guy that I used to be. If you beg me for a loan, I can only give to you if I have anything In my opay. Aside that no money and I can't kill myself for you
give me loan sir pls 150k I want to start photography business

Offcourse they allow fraud or probably work with the scammers. Tell me why i will expose an app that succeeded in clearing my account and still collect loan on my behalf and such expository will not make front page but useless topics keep making frontpage
this is serious I swear it always baffles me. A good enlighten topic would not make front page but very disgusting useless topics always appears on front page immediately they're publish.

You can keep believing the stories and remain ignorant. He chose to factcheck the truth and seeked knowledge, and he was liberated. Keep following stories up and down and not use your brain, we will all meet our creator and he’s the master of the day of judgement. You still have time, SEEK KNOWLEDGE AND KNOW YOUR PURPOSE IN THIS LIFE.
God bless you with this wonderful comment

JoePeach:
They probably just mean the Russian army. Nowadays, they give millions of rubles for signing a contract, and they write off debts. Well, there are also lifelong benefits, cheap mortgages, and lots of bonuses for children - free education and healthcare. So, yes, they give you money to buy yourself an apartment. Plus, they pay a lot per month. They give you about $50,000 upfront and another $5,000 per month. Plus bonuses that can reach outrageous amounts.

Romance › Re: I Want To Marry A Fulani Girl. by youngsum(m): 10:22am On Sep 10
broadman20:
Good morning House,

It's my pleasure writing this message after giving it a careful thought for sometime now.

I'm a young Nigerian from the South South part of Nigeria.

I've been into Real estate and housing for more than a decade now and has been doing well for myself and the society.

I just have this need that has been worrying me for sometime now.

I want to marry a Fulani Girl who is educated and open minded to marry from another tribe of Nigeria.

I know it's not a popular choice among my people here and so many people has tried so much to discourage me because of the funny bad blood and competition that exists between tribes in Nigeria.

I sincerely want to know better about Fulanis and also want to correct some negative impressions people have about them in the south south and South East regions of Nigeria.

I'm a very friendly and open minded person with a strong independent mindset, I will like this relationship to be like an adventure as I know we can really prove a point between our people.

Thanks so much Mods as I pray you can help and push this to front page.

Happy Xmas in advance to you all.
I can help you

Robertgreene1:
I don't joke with her bro. I take very good care of her. I even sent her 5k for data on Sunday evening. But there should be some boundaries you know. Besides, as a creative writer, l'm very good in chatting and l type quite fast. Infact, l used to enjoy chatting with my girls from morning till night back in those days. But l don't have that kind of time again. I'm 30. So if l loose my job now, we will start eating chats abihuh But everyone is still entitled to their opinions sha. Shalom.
you're very funny I swear. It seems she's your first love

Shamed because you feel or know she's wrong? Which one?


Funny you only heard the missope part of the story and there you go condemning the other party already. Y'all so emotional you put emotions before common sense.


What if the missope is super dramatic? What if things were the way the lady says they were and missope didn't take her time to hear her out well enough?

I once had a phone stolen at the wrong place at the wrong time and because of my career and what reporting might do I had to pretend all is well. You know what, y'all already condemned her to the cross, enjoy the crucifixion display here on Nairaland.
I know she's wrong

The case has not been proven by any authority.. That palmpay number may be innocent and that could dent reputation, op and her friend will have more explanation should in case it turn out the other way

Even murderers not yet tried or convicted are only called suspects and their faces are blurred for a reason.
I know she wasn't convicted but the woman need to be shamed

My dear, I never thought she could do that until she started giving inconsistent stories of how her phone was stolen and her whatsapp subsequently accessed...

Just because I didn't send money to her direct account...

But I learnt my lessons though.....

This is what I keep saying and preaching on a daily bases.

This is the beauty of the Nigerian Business space, only the wise knows Whatzup

When people come online and say 500K cannot feed them in a week here on Nairaland and a Salary of 1 Million is too small to feed a family of four currently in Nigeria, I LAUGH MY STOMACH OUT. They don't know Nigeria are surviving in their own way.

If you know how much this traders and farmers earn you will be shocked, If you see some of their bank account you might run mad. My Aunty who is a Senior Civil Defense officer said when they were given sudden layoff from her Bank job many years ago, after they were paid off, She took her money to buy Civil Defense job, while her friend and colleague used her own money to start hoarding and warehousing business.

SHE SAID HER FRIEND CURRENTLY CAN PAY HER (AS A CIVIL DEFENSE OFFICER) HER 6 MONTH SALARY AND SHE WON'T EVEN NOTICE THAT SUCH AMOUNT LEFT HER BANK ACCOUNT

I know someone who used Chewing stick business to build his own personal house and another for rent, and have train his 3 graduates and the rest are still in school. I know a rice trader, Panel Beater, Welder, Carpenter etc who are living in their own personal house and training their children with money from their business.

I left big white-collar jobs and am still getting offers currently, But I CAN NEVER GO BACK TO IT AGAIN, Shaa Business is not easy but it is still bae and need adequate patience, tolerance, prayers and also strong mind.

Note: Business is not for everyone ooo. If you are not ready to cry once a while avoid it grin grin grin

May God help us
nice submission, can I see your picture?

I was agitated because I assumed my knowledge of the topic was commonsense to most Nigerians. Going through the first page showed me it isn’t.

People stick to where their pockets can manage. It’s why Lagos has the mainland and the island. The cost of living in both areas is completely different.

Yes, it makes sense for people to live within and even below their means. Don’t forget that our country people worship wealth and every show of it. It’s why people try to live above their means. Nobody wants to know how you achieved something, they only care for the final product.
go and sit down madam you're not smart .
