Bunkbars:
A friend of mine, his dad left him, 100m in the bank. This guy just fixed the funds in the bank and was earning about 10m per year.

This guy just sleeps, wakes, gym, eat healthy, flex and date women.

He lives in a three bedroom apartment, that is well furnished. And has a clean venza. He drives only at close proximity.

I have told him to invest in real estate, or airbnb, the guy is afraid to risk.

abeg, send me his contact. i want to check something

This is depressing because it is true.

The rules of the game have changed, and fathers should be coaching their sons, to not go through the same path as others.

The time people wasted in uni studying a useless course would have been channeled to do better things.

But again, youthful exuberance won't allow lots of young people to just focus and understand that the playfulness of today is the regret of tomorrow.

A man will have to pick one of two poisons. The first one is to suffer very hard in his 20s, then life can be soft on him in his 30s,

or sadly, to live without intention thinking the future will just set itself up. It is sad that a lot of people have to get old before they know that time is life.

For men, their most golden age is their 20s. It's the age of no responsibilities, the best physical strength, no baggage, and time flexibility. He must spend this age wisely, to prepare for another stage of life in his 30s.

Then life will be very soft on him. Friends will love and respect him, women will love and want to be with him, and his society will give him warmth.

There is no guarantee of success after much suffering, but you miss all the shots you didn't take, so it's always better to shoot.


This is wisdom. Pure golden wisdom

Romance / The Most Difficult Age For An Average Man Born In Nigeria by ideamonster: 10:17pm On Aug 30, 2023
The most difficult age for any man born in Nigeria should be between 24 and 29 years, the pressure to succeed- to be something, to be someone is so immense. When you look around you everyone seems to be doing something for themselves, people seem to be living a life you only dream of. You have applied for jobs and the results have been more disappointing than Yakubu Aiyegbeni goal miss at the world cup.


Sadly this is the age when most guys lose it because the disappointments become too much and you find alternative ways to face reality. Worse is when a few people you studied with have been lucky enough to land jobs. Soon your circle of friends gets thinner – mostly they don’t even cut you out but you will be real with yourself and cut yourself off. I mean what will you do when you are in a WhatsApp group of friends and they are discussing about last week’s trip in Dubai and planning another trip to South Africa while you are not sure of what your next meal would be?


Most times you follow the conversation silently, all alone like a cross on the grave. Soon you realize this is no longer your kind of crowd because the more you keep around, the more the pressure to be something, takes a toll on you. You know when stories about house parties
come up and you act deaf because you don’t know where an extra 5 guys would fit in your house. Have you ever sat in a group of people discussing the new iPhone on the market or how British Airways offers poo services and you can feel your heart whisper to you "boss this is chest pain hour, can we just go and find a group that talks about GMAT, SHL, Dragnet, jobberman or job vacancies sites". But you sit there as these people are lost in their lifestyle conversations, you are like a secretary taking minutes in meeting.


After a few years of job hunting, you are now ready to take anything even if is to smell a rich man’s farts as long as it pays, so you end up as an office messenger in one blue chip company in town. To imagine that 4-5 years of studying and getting a degree is now reduced to picking and dropping off letters and if you are not doing that, you are being sent for cheap lunch by the employees when they are broke and they can’t order with fast food. This is when conversations about where people schooled start, you go silent for it’s no longer of any use to say you also reached University, it doesn’t matter – you have resorted to surviving.


Once in while you will bump into your now well to do classmates, they would offer you lunch, but not even eating the meals at Eko Hotel or Sheraton will make you feel better about yourself, because in your mind you wish instead they would give you the 30k and you sort your meals for the next 5 weeks. As it is the norm you will have photos taken, and uploaded on Facebook, but always it’s your face that would look the odd one out – not even the best filters can hide a face which has suffered the city's dust and sun but survives on boiled beans.


The worst mistake you can do is to try and date at this point – there is nothing that a person going through such times can offer in terms of love. How are you going to do evening romantic walks when you are tired from walking delivering letters in offices around town? What are you going to tell your lady when she says she wants to go for relaxation at the bar, pool or love garden sites that are in town? That your financial religion doesn’t allow it or what? This is the age when you sit back and watch as the ladies you would want to date are dating or getting married to guys 10 years older than you. And you can’t blame them – it’s only that your life seems to be progressing slower than their goals in life. Most of the ladies you meet during this period, if you are lucky will be patient with you till you hit 28, and if by then your life is still in disarray, then my friend be prepared for a walk out.

In this video: the pressure to succeed, everyday Nigerians like you share their heartfelt experiences facing the pressure to succeed and how to hack through this stage of life. Their conversation exposes a lot about handling disappointments, friendships, love, career growth and personal responsibility as well as persevering and appreciating each day's small wins,


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQXlcflI1D4

If you've ever felt alone, realize that there are several folks like you who are dealing with difficult times. How you live your life in the 30’s is determined by how you handled your life in this phase. Do not Give up. Do not Be Depressed. remain focused and create a Strategy. Be consistent, you must Surely Win. Peace

Disregard many of them. Take many of their comments as a comic relief because that's what they are — jokes. They are mostly low lives. I can tell you for free that most of them are SIMPS in real life. They grovel at women's feet for a living offline but then, let's pretend they are high and mighty online. cheesy

If you see some of them outside, you'll beat yourself up for believing their shenanigans on here. Just divert your attention from their mess and you'll be good.

If you can't read someone's intention, they will waste your time and dump you.

When you meet a serious man who is ready to settle down, you don't need a soothsayer to tell you.

After 6 months and nothing is happening, you can take over and ask him when.

It's better the relationship break up than continue wasting your time.

No one seems to be proposing practical, actionable solutions that can be implemented. Yet in the middle of all these, everday Nigerians as yourselves are trying to fix things. Here's a video presentation of possible solutions and how you can get involved.

Today, all hope seems lost. The economy appears bleak, food inflation is up, salaries are almost useless and there's generally a dearth of hope.

In the middle of all these, you need to keep a calm disposition, and begin to plan how your actions can pull Nigeria out of the shadows. Today, the country doesn't project dreams or a vision that young people can believe in.

We need visions of the future that will inspire and catalyze a global movement. The solutions to Nigeria's ills lie in the dreams and visions that you can bring to life. Here's a vision for Nigeria that we can all believe in.
