Send a text message, wait a day, then try a call if nothing happens. Phrase your words, to say checking in, just in case you sent it, I didn't not receive it. If not, happy/patient to wait for your email.

I have my own thoughts, but I would love to hear what you think.
Investment / How Come There Are So Many Empty Houses? Isnt Some Rent Better Than None? by Marinog: 4:24pm On Mar 17, 2022
With all the empty houses in Nigeria, why don't Landlords reduce rent and get tenants in?

And why is it that more property developers dont agree to rent to own schemes?
Investment / How Much Would It Cost To Build A 20 Storey Apartment Block? by Marinog: 4:10pm On Mar 17, 2022
Hello guys,

Con someone please help with an estimate on the cost of building a condominium block.

I know there are many factors, so this is a rough estimate. Ignore cost of the land.

Building should house 500 - 600 units. Unit types can be equal mix of 1 to 3 bedrooms.
Enough internal car space (preferably from the ground to 3rd floor) to match the number of units.

Room quality should be such that one should be able to fairly get an average rent of 400 - 600k per unit.

Thanks.

Family / Big Wedding Or Small Wedding by Marinog: 1:30pm On Aug 17, 2021
Can I get some advice on this?

I am planning a wedding. My original plan was something moderately priced, not too big. Though of course, my woman would like something extra special, she is supportive on our moderate budget. However, seems some top people would be attending by the look of things, and contributions, support has been flying in especially from her side.

Some of my close well off friends say I need to increase my budget . A few of my family members saying the same thing. In a way, it will bite me for now, but I can afford it. In a year's time, I think I would have balanced out.

I have read on threads here, advice on minimal expenditure. However, I also know you cant place a value on human relationships and network. Left to 2 of us, we just want a happy memorable day. However, one can consider families, social, cultural factors. I think some people here would understand what I am trying to say.

It is also possible I am looking for a reason to convince myself. What would you advise?

Romance / Re: How Do You Handle Having Both Rich And Poor Friends? by Marinog: 7:52pm On Jun 14, 2021
I never responded to this. Thank you, this is very good advice.

Yusufisraelj:


My guy as your level keeps going up, you will notice the following with rich and struggling friends.

Rich friends aren't loyal (most of them), they may steal an opportunity or idea from you and impliment it, and may not compromise their lifestyle for you, mostly they don't care about you but the strategic advantage you bring to them etc

Struggling friends may act loyal, just to fit in and not get you offended, else they lose their support structure (most of them), all your suggestions are okay and the likes, Some are always putting their problems on you and will not seek for tangible ways to become financially independent etc

My advice

Search among your rich and struggling folks sincerity; the willingness to remain true and want to be right and honest in all they do, only keep this kinds close and mingle with them.

Not perfection, bkos everyone is a work in progress, even more importantly you cannot be going up and be keeping certain struggling or rich friends, you will have to edit your circles to keep people of integrity, else your attacks will come from friends without character, opportunist, pretender's etc.

You should edit your circles along your lines of convictions, you cannot love God and keep friends who don't, you cannot love hardwork and appreciate process and entertain those who don't, bkos friendship influences big time.

There's a lot to talk about, but I hope this helps.
Family / How Do You Handle Having Both Rich And Poor Friends? by Marinog: 11:36am On Mar 01, 2021
Hello all,

Reposting here.. so i can get more responses.. thanks

So I want advice on this.

Background is I am the average guy that was very broke in the past, jobless for some time, doing my little hustling, and now after some big breaks doing well (thanks to God). There are many of my guys we were all hustling together, for some, things are better, for some, not yet. Along to the way to my present position, I've made lots of new, well off friends, in professional and social circles.

I'm comfortable been with very rich friends who can spend 1m in a day, at the same time also comfortable going to bukka with my other guys for 200 naira eba and okro soup. I dont use money to judge if someone is a friend. Now some people have been advising that this is naive, and I should maintain my new social class. There is some truth there because I've experienced a few drag downs, but overall it's still ok.

So if I am getting married now, all the rich guys want to show up for me, do I invite some friends who are still gathering themselves? Is it unfair to them to ask them to be groomsmen? Or to ask them to pay xx amount for clothes? I've toyed with the idea of paying for those who dont have enough, dunno if that makes sense.

One person fi dey ask me 10k support, the other one go dey invite me for event wey go chop 500k. Loyalty is a big value for me, so I guess that's why I still hold dear all my old guys. I notice the well off are sometimes snobbish, or want to maintain certain standards. In the past, I might have thought that was bad, but with some experience, I also understand why people do that.

What's the best way to handle these different types of friends?

Don't you think your claim is contradicting?


Yes it is contradicting, I think that is the essence of why I am feeling conflicted. I want to invite them. But is it fair to them? If I dont have much, and my guy is inviting me to come and spend a lot of money, I wont be comfortable.. In that moment, that isnt helping me life. So should I just invite them anyway, and they'll sort themselves out? Some of these guys ask me for support from time to time, or even owe me. Its no wahala, I know they'll return when they have.
