Bro pump that 1m you have into your other business abeg. If that your other business is doing well enough you wont even have the time to drive on uber anymore. Any business not doing well is obviously suffering from lack of fund.

I'm even surprise a fellow driver with experience is asking this kind of question.

You should know better na bro

There is no bigger business or investment in Nigeria right now than spending the money on yourself. Yes. You heard me right. Spend the money on yourself. Its better you look at yourself in months and see the effect of the money than invest it in one nonsense that is bound to fail. At least you will look fresh and wear nice things.

In Nigeria from the moment you try to set up a business, everybody will start hustling you. From your contractors to your managers down to the dealers themselves! All of them see you as the gateway to their imaginary billions!

You see most of these so called businesses you think that are successful? If they tell you what they really do behind to succeed and stay afloat, you will choose to remain poor. Am not talking about rituals or any form of diabolic thing. Nope. Thats nonsense. Am talking about the real realities of staying afloat in a hostile business environment like Nigeria. You have to be mean, ruthless and evil to succeed.

I wouldn't know how to explain this further. Strong Cartels know better.

Most people here forming jack of all trade in one business or the other don't know jack. All they know is fantansies and utopian mega successes.

In Nigeria, what most people know is how to give you juicy business proposals because you are willing to bankroll it. If you are observant, they are usually nice and sweet at the beginning. They will show you all the upsides of the proposed business without showing you the downsides.

But once they succeed in separating you from your money, the real demon in them will come out. Stories here and there. Mistakes here and there. Losses here and there. Ask them why they didn't see and state all these in the proposal they brought before. They will be looking at you like morrons.

Nigerians are very terrible in keeping promises. They take a lot of things for granted. Thats the reason why a morron will approach you to take your car and drive on Uber, wreck it in 2 weeks and still be looking at you like an imbeccile without any purpose in life.

The worst mistake you can make in business in Nigeria is to LEAVE IT TO SOMEONE TO MANAGE. It will take a very special grace and anointing to get a focused, determined person that is willing to work with you long term. Most human beings especially Nigerians are wired to be Wicked, Evil, Self Centred, Greedy and Covetous. All they know about is themselves.

I have had a friend that opened a restaurant business in Owerri. Months in Months out, losses will be turning in. I told him to mount CCTV without his workers knowing. What he discovered shocked him. Everyday, almost all his workers came with there coolers and were carting away food to feed themselves and their families. They did this in collusion with the manager who was sleeping with most of the girls there. So, how will he talk?

I wanted to suggest to him to use Gamalin 20 or Corrosive aerosols to poison them so they will die gradually. But I was serving God then. That was how this business went down.

So to the brother that has 800k, I will advise you to go and keep that money in your bank account. If you even try to buy a Nigerian used car, they may heartlessly sell a melon or snake oil to you that will pack up in months.

If you dont have any solid business idea you can establish and be managing yourself, take that money and spend on yourself. Everyday withdraw 5k and go and eat cat fish peppersoup and Nkwobi with better palm wine. Its a better investment.

When I made similar money that you have though mine is higher, I ran away immediately and setup a fish farm with 4 GEPPEE Tanks. I have enough fish that will last me for the next 10 years if I manage it well.

This quarantine period, I simply quarantine 3 catfish into my stomach everyday with 3 bottles of Gulder. What else can I ask God?

This man stated it as it is.

Let me share my little experience...

I bought the "Watermelon/snake oil car" in December 2019.

Okay, I saw this car on jiji and decided to go and check it out.
I went with a mechanic to Ibadan on Sunday. 8th December 2019.

On getting there, we inspected and I kept asking the mechanic if anything was wrong. The fool kept saying only tyre.

I asked him severally, he kept on his word. I paid sha.

Driving the car to Lagos sha. Car started going off in traffic. He kept saying it's a small issue.

We got down to Lagos and expenses started on this car.

From guys that changed the lights, to 4-tyres, windscreen had a small crack. Spent 200k there oh. I won die. Car wey I never use make money. They all sucked me

Conclusion: They knew the car was faulty , but still keep lieing to me, in order to make money from me

Guess what!!!! The engine was bad.
Sold it off at a loss sha.

That was when I knew that there were too many greedy folks in 9ja. Only after their pocket

A305:
I know this is irrelevant but I just want to feel intelligent for once.

It wasn't Albert Einstein that tried 999 times, Albert mistakes were minimal and were mostly discovered and corrected by his wife Meliva Maric, Infact, Einstein's wife was smarter than him, she did all the writing in theory for him and also helped solved most of the mathematical equations that arouse Albert Einstein's curiosity that will later lead him to make sense of it in the real world(using the universe) which he actually did sucessfully, hence, making Einstein the genius.

Nobody acknowledged or gave credit to his wife Meliva, All people knew was Albert the genius did everything.

When young Einstein got his fame from his new found genius status for outsmarting Newton's theory, he was getting invitation to give lectures in universities all over Europe, local man couldnt resist women, he loved women and had (hoes at every area code) in Europe, although women were naturally attracted to him due to his look and status.

This broke Meliva's heart and so their marriage couldn't work as Einstein fell out of love with her but she wouldn't agree to a divorce so guess what Einstein did.

Albert promised her his Noble prize award along with the money if she agrees to a divorce, She did agreed and when Einstein won the award, the award as well as all the money went to Meliva.

So man, the guy whom you actually referring to was Thomas Edison, Thomas was the guy who tried 999 times in attempt for an invention and made mistakes every time but the 1000th time was when he finally invented the light bulb.

Less than 30% per annum in Nigeria is a joke against inflation and I am being lenient

I’m very skeptical; because of all the hype. I don’t want to be disappointed.

Another response I thought about but didn't care enough to give. Chop knuckle jare

Mayor555:


Take it from me, you won't be disappointed.

BAZ001:


With a mechanic or your mechanic?
I doubt if your personal mechanic will do that to you.
There are some good Nigerians out there though the percentage is low.
I don't believe average Nigerian is greedy , average Nigerian is hungry and looking for food , so when they see opportunity dey want to over feed. Poverty mentality
Same thing with our politicians - they keep packing money cos of fear of being poor after d tenor . Money dey can't spend in life time cos there mindset hasn't change.

Same way you go to parties and you see guys struggling to pack 6 bottles of coke home cos it's awoof, just 600 naira. They drive big cars n live in lekki this same people can afford cartons of juice but the mindset

hefelove:

Sorry about this boss. Too bad, I've always being seeing things like these on this thread, and something just came to my mind now, mama radautoworks I think we should nominate you of any one wants to buy a car here the person can contact you to follow him/her for check up but he has to pay, it's better paying you 20k for check up on the car than spending another 200k on stupid expenses and selling the car at loss

Odignity:
Please I'm dire need of someone to give me a car for taxify.

I thought Tyrant too was banned ?
