Belated wishes,

true story brethren, a gf of 6months left her guy because she needed 20K and he could not provide it on the day he promised, he pleaded for 2more days saying he had spent all his money on his accidented truck which was undergoing repairs, she simply packed her bags, took the phone she gave him and left his house, not after insulting up to his dead parents in the grave,
this same guy spent N8k the previous week buying just undies for her cos she said she needed a change, infact he is Mr lover original.
See my people, love is giving of oneself,and money seems to be d easiest extension of the self, but then some folks are just plain prodigal, A girl who demands money from a guy puts a claim to her man's time or life, she is demanding what she sees as hers. Really if you say you re her boyfriend,it means u accept her right to your ownership, if she can call ur 'kini' her own, then y cant she claim ur money to be hers too, afterall doesnt ur money belong to u? and do u not belong to her?how can she own ur frienship without d money, haba,
if you get money,give the baabe.if you no get,go borrow,if u no fit borrow,beg her and tell her you still love her with a dry pocket.if she doesnt listen,let her go cos she is a hired killer and not a girlfriend. What if like in the case of my friend she refuses to go?well my friend's gf is claiming 170k as a parting settlement for 6months of sex and one abortion, you go fear fear.well that is what you call hired killer + domestic prostitute = she doesnt say thank you when you send her N400 recharge card cos its too small + she has many politicians and military men as 'uncles'  + she says stuff like "you cant foot my bill"during an argument+she has over 30pairs of shoes and gets a new one cos she likes the color, ,

@bani & mambinaje
thx guys.please take action on these ideas immediately and you will never regret it, lets bridge the digital divide as fast as we can cos the world won't wait.Cheers

As the saying goes, the internet changes everything and small guys can now play it big, however, because these changes are very rapid and continuous, it is almost impossible to measure its overall effect. Like waves in the ocean, it is better to ride its twists and turns, especially the upturns (rather than trying to measure it).I can remember the surprise I felt the day I learnt Nokia, the popular phone maker consists of  about 7 people. That particular year, they sold several hundred million dollars worth of handsets but made a profit of only 40million dollars; they were clearly not in for the profit, but rather the value of the brand, they knew how and why they should dominate the world, using the same tools available to everyone. Later on I read of how First virtual company, owners of the popular western union money transfer brand had about 40 employees including the founder. They only developed the technology, negotiated the marketing, certified their brand quality. Every other aspect of the business was run by partners who used online manuals to outline work-in-progress. (I kept asking myself one question day-in day-out, how do they do that…, 7 people, Nokia?) Being an undergraduate at university of Benin at that time, and knowing the state of the typical Nigerian workplace, my only hope of satisfactory achievement in my life's work was entrepreneurship. Not just entrepreneurship as the average man or woman might know it, but entrepreneurship in the way Nokia (and other idea savvy industry leaders) know it. That is what I often refer to as the “Nokia way”.
After plenty of self study and research, I began to recognize a pattern in the activities of these small but mighty companies. They all did what could be easily replicated by any body and easily transferred to any other industry or business, whether it’s a single website or a multi-national company.

More than ever before, It has become extremely important for everyone to be able to achieve optimum impact with the minimal resources at our disposal. (If you’re born and bred in Nigeria, you’ll agree with me on this).It would interest you to know some of the phenomenal capabilities that exist in our world today and the opportunities created daily, especially for wealth and overall personal success. Most of us are already familiar with some of these opportunities (and even the technologies that make them possible, especially the internet) but to benefit from them, we all could use a little paradigm shift which of course is always pre-requisite to any major progress, yours and mine.
Doesn’t it annoys me when I discuss the subject of e-business or internet business and people just only want to refer to selling egold, affiliate marketing, blogging for dollars, online Forex trading, e-books or some meager application of these systems as if that was all there is to it. All these systems are a means to an end, this end being profit or non-profit.  Why make a cent when you can make a dollar at the same time? Why bring a cup to the stream when you can carry a bucket? I’d often ask them. Many of us may not have $20million to start a site like ‘2nd life’, or the financial and technical skills to configure virtual money like china’s ‘QQcent’. However with our little #20,000(twenty thousand naira) splendid opportunities abounds.

What opportunities abound, you may ask? Well, in my humble opinion, the ultimate application of our present possibilities in term of global technology/human development is summed up in one word “e-minipreneuring”, which is a hybrid of e-enterpreneuring and e-micropreneuring. Becoming an e-minipreneur is the modern day equivalent of learning to swim; i.e. it’s fun, it’s the best form of exercise, it’s chic and it’ll get you ahead when others are drowning in the sea (of information in this case) .Its not rocket science and you won’t find it being taught it in schools. In a nutshell, E-Minipreneurs seek to monetize the modern day “manna from heaven” AKA “globalization”, by using recent business strategies driven by technology. They get their businesses up and running instantly usually on a small scale, relying on everything from rock-bottom priced laptops, printers and open source software, to broadband connections and free telephony (with tech giants battling it out who can bring the free-est of the free to savvy consumers- you and me). They also take advantage of new business to business service models combining recent concepts and strategies such as business process outsourcing, information technology outsourcing, strategic alliances, on-demand/turnkey services, co-opetition (rather than competition), internationalization, automation, mass customization (rather than mass production),flexibility, click- to- brick and mortal strategies, along side digital opportunity, globalization, e-business /internet etc.

All these strategies were once exclusive to major corporations but are now widely and increasingly available to the average Joes.  Unfortunately, Mr.  & Mrs.  “Average Joe” may never consider using these strategies as they slap together yet another Website or blog in the name of internet business (hoping to become the next eBay or Google). Little wonder how recent research show that most online business owners have at least 5 websites and make an average monthly income of $57.Yes, perhaps Mr. & Mrs. average Joe didn’t have enough money to market their sites like the big names do, but what about the likes of Amazon.com, the giant book seller that never became profitable even with their $2million a pop super bowl adverts? They got it wrong from the start by putting old wine in new bottle. According to Jesus Christ, you will lose both the bottle and that sweet mature wine, hmmm; pity!. So for some people who are nursing the possibility of starting a Nigerian site like eBay, be sure to do it the “Nokia way”, or prepare to pick the broken pieces.

Use your imagination, add a little of your creativity and innovation to all these new possibilities, and as you do, remember the fact that they are within our reach, and then you’d have discovered the “Nokia way” as I mentioned earlier (there is really no better way!). Before your imagination begins to run too wide, you’d agree with me on the fact that there’s no limit to what can be achieved. You may not end up discovering the eleventh planet, but you will definitely make global or regional impact in just about any area of human endeavor, especially in Business.
Here’s a classic example. Have you ever dreamed about offering your own wireless phone service? “Wanna” be MTN (laugh), well just incase you might not know, it can easily be done these days, just by becoming a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO). This is a mobile telephone operator that does not own its own spectrum and usually does not have its own network infrastructure. Instead, MVNO's have business arrangements with traditional mobile operators to buy minutes of use (MOU) for sale to their own customers
Many of us are familiar with simple resellers of telecom services such as long distance, local exchange, and mobile network services and I read in a recent issue of success digest extra of a new arrangement by Nigerian mobile carriers to offer such large scale reseller plans. In contrast, MVNO's typically add value such as brand appeal, distribution channels, and other affinities to the resale of mobile services. What if I told you that starting today you, yes you can be your very own mobile carrier in the US? You might be tempted to doubt it because we all know the business of providing cell phone services has mostly been limited to companies with deep, fat pockets, but a start-up sonopia Corp(www.sonopia.com). now enables anyone to launch their own wireless service even without up front payments?.  (Their service model is based on an “on-demand/turnkey strategy”)

The Sonopia website launched in the beginning of April this year and allows organizations and individuals to create their own branded mobile phone service in just a few minutes online, a feat which took existing virtual operators such as Richard Branson's Virgin mobile (which pioneered the provision of a branded phone service on rented network space) six months to accomplish. Starting your own mobile carrier through Sonopia, you will be able to upload and send exclusive content to your subscribers. You will receive a portion of the monthly proceeds, which can range from 3% to 8% per month based on the number of subscribers. Sonopia will handle all support and billing for your wireless customers .This is a slick way to get people to sign up for mobile phone solutions. It’s kind of amazing that you can start up your own branded mobile service online in 30 minutes.
Sonopia allows individuals to create their own calling plans and then sell them to others. Your wireless carrier is just like any other with unique calling plans and allows you to send out messages to your subscribers.
Your wireless network will run on Verizon and Vodaphone infrastructure. Sonopia takes care of passing out handsets, sending out your customized monthly bills, and basic customer service. You take care of getting the customers and raking in the cash. A percentage of the monthly revenue generate from your mobile carrier goes directly to you or your organization. If you can pull in enough subscribers you could stand to make a bundle pretty easily. How is this opportunity open to non us citizens, you might ask. Well my answer to that question is a simple another question. How is the internet open to non US citizens? Remember, the internet changes everything.
Perhaps we should have nairaland mobile for nairalanders living in the US, or maybe all the Yoruba people in the US can start their own service and call it “GBEDU wireless”(please no tribal sentiments implied :~}). Your guess is as good as mine; I already started my own network. I named it the emosquitonet. A percentage of my monthly revenue goes to malaria research so that each time my subscribers make a call; they are spreading a tele-mosquitonet over the one million children who die from malaria each year in Africa.
There are many more businesses like the sonopia corp. that will get you started up and running in just about any industry, especially those with a global appeal such as media, entertainment, Apparel (fashion), etc. Many of such products and services can be combined to form unique products and services in various these industries; Bringing resources and other assets into combination to introduce change, innovation and a new order while escaping the authority of others.Not self employment but e-minipreneuring.Not a small business but  a baby global business because baby elephants are bigger than matured lions.
Should you want to know how you can start a small but mighty online business; scale fast and dominate in the entertainment, fashion, media, publishing, manufacturing, wholesale /retail and advertising industry? So you want to join the “baby global business bubble”- a rebirth of the dotcom bubble of the late 90s? – Well then, be ready to go straight to ridiculous success according to Pierre Omidya, founder of eBay.
Feel free to email or call me (day time only) and in exchange for a bottle of GOOD wine (no beer please  :~}) I’ll send you great resources where you’d find all you need to get started as an e-mininpreneur; NEW WINE, NEW BOTTLE! Cheers.

Seun:

"Quick money" is almost never legal.

who says? perhaps in the stone age. well Many scammers lure their victims with the promise of quick/easy money and Most illegal businesses also profer quick money as an added incentive towards the high risks.We all know its everyones dream to have such means of income and there is no law which says making money must be a lifelong daunting task.just as technology is changing every aspect of our lives,it's also changing how fast we make money too so that the possibility of quick money is more feasible these days.Please read my post @https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-84365.0.html I hope you find it useful.Feel free to post your questions and comments there.cheers

@all,
its an evolution of our culture of hate and enemy centeredness.its human nature curable only by unconditional LOVE.

@webjunior,
pl accept ma condolences.accept her departure and move on,lets celebrate her life time and as you read this receive the peace of God in your family.Amen.It helps to believe that death is not the end of life,its only a journey to the unknown,a better place where we hope there is no cancer or malabsorption.From what you wrote,you did your best to help and lets give a lil kudos to our professionals too,we are all just trying.your search for a 'medical lawyer' will only prolong the healing process you need right now.(the legal services arent any better ya know!)your baby sis has just taken flight,her place is with the stars now and we all suspect she's no longer in pains(please let this console you).its only a matter of time and our pain of loss will go away too.its painful,feel my tears ,take heart.

, the day you believe you are,

Hello Elaiye,
I 'm in the business of setting up GSM short code and educating users on several ways they can profit from this Mcommerce system. It should cost you between #20k-#30k to set up,depending on the  messaging features you want (send/receive bulk text); it takes about 72hrs to get the code up and running. All you will need to do is provide ur business info i.e type of bussiness, office address, and email address. In my humble opinion, the profit sharing between you and the Gsm providers is quite fair. (Do you know MTN, Celtel and globacom will pay you between #8 - #26 for every text message sent to your short code number,It usually takes about 6weeks before your first payment arrives and your service provider handles all the backend activities so you can concentrate on your core business)I hope you found this info helpful, 'at your service anytime, Cheers.
