Business / Re: Traders Lament Low Sales As Food Prices Soar In Lagos by onlyhope: 8:00am On Nov 23, 2021
nnekaike:
A while back,the large crowd i meet when i go to buy on Fridays/Saturdays is alarming from my meat vendor.

I noticed for some months now,no more crowd even on Saturdays.
A lot of persons can no longer afford MEAT.
How we survive in this country and carry on daily is a mystery,living in this country is hardwork.
You are so right. I told someone recently that my purchasing power has reduced. I can barely eat without meat or fish, and I make stew/soup within 3-5 days. Now, I can't remember the last time I ate fish/meat. The sapa no be here o.

This does not factor in the costs of your bench work or research. If 'others' cover your house rent and feeding for the period. For example, someone very close to me needs between 3m-4m for his research alone in the life sciences.

Career / Re: Is N400,000 A Bad Salary In Today's Nigeria? Is He Doing Something Wrong by onlyhope: 4:05pm On Sep 20, 2021
Hi, don't be bothered by what people are saying here. Take care of your family as you feel is OK for you. 100k monthly for four people is very OK esp if you are eating good food. In fact, if you don't spend any other miscellaneous cash asides this every month, and your wife does not complain of being cash strapped, then you're doing well.

All of you that are trading Transferwise, be careful with those guys. One day, the devil might just enter them and they will close your account for a reason they won’t state. I used to buy Transferwise funds on this thread for a long time until they decided to close my account, I never did anything illicit on it and I never used it on any website, yet they still closed it. Now, I have almost $2000 stuck with them that I won’t get until in two months time. You all can google Transferwise closing accounts
Wow! Thanks for this.

Well, I know what your aunt did can be sooo painful. Sometimes we feel their actions are unforgivable, but I'll say, let it go. If you do not want to help her son, you can dodge it stylishly. However, if you feel like helping, you can do too. I'm even surprised you still communicate with her.

Let me share this here..
I have an elder sister, she got a car but she can’t drive very well..
And I can drive, I started to drive her without asking her to pay me I take her to her work and I hang around until 4pm then I bring her back home..
I just finished my schooling I’m waiting for service. One day I spoke to her about using the car for bolt so she can have another source of income..
She said she has been looking for someone, I told her I can do it since I’m waiting to be deployed by nov or Jan..
To cut the story short, she gave the car to someone else, this is my sister I have been driving without pay for the Past 3years..

Most family have lost its unique relationship. Don’t expect anything from anyone.
Why did she give her car to someone else? Ask her. She's your elder sister. Using the car as a taxicab is directly or indirectly your idea.

Why would the bride sponsor her bridesmaids? The dress they would be wearing are they not the ones using it after the event? Wedding event of just 2-5 hours max na him you dey worry yourself? The bride (or groom) can sponsor if s/he's rich anyway.
Chuky7:
In pre-wedding arrangement,
doesn't the bride sponsor her chief brides maid?

Career / Re: Dairy Of A Web Designer by onlyhope: 11:46am On Jul 28, 2021
Well, at this information age, no employer shd just make an employment without reason. I wouldn't have replied, but so that all of us can learn and keep learning.... I discovered recently why there's no job in Nigeria because all of us are doing the same thing. I can graduate as an engineer and do the work of a receptionist and vice versa because we rarely train for special skills in Nigeria.
When I check websites abroad, there're always jobs. Why? Because they have specific problems they want to solve. Now back to the issue....
Let's assume the vacancy is for a web developer with javascript coding knowledge with laravel framework, jquery, etc. You as a developer can do the work with swishmax and Php or Flash. And you now came for the interview, you want me to employ you? The people/interviewers asking him know what they are doing jare. If I'm a senior developer looking for a junior developer to work with, we must be able to work with the same codes (By the way, I'm not a developer).
derecho:


Hmmn...but did you read where he said "...application and the codes"
If they love his work, why not employ him first?

Hi, you were wrong! The fact that you told them the applications you used does not mean that they will or they can do it like you would. Let me give you an instance here right now OK. I used Figma, html5, Adobe InDesign, Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver CS5, CSS and Bootstrap to design the website. What did this take away from me after telling you just now? Job seekers, you guys will just be turning an easy task to another complex issue. Well, I believe you're still young sá. All the best.
phemmylink:
It was never a hard feeling for me to be an unaccomplished web designer, shishi I didn’t gain, it was a sense of fulfillment back then, I had this top of the world feeling that I can create something, fact that I was creative drove me and got me high atimes but this was not filling my pocket up with cash like uncle Seun spews. So on that fateful day, I boarded a bus from Osho do to surulere, dropped at one lousy bus top to attend one of those interviews I will never forget. It was my turn to go in, and when I got in I saw two goofy looking guys, they asked the usual bla bla bla questions, to cut the long story short they asked me what are the applications and codes I used to design the websites I showed them I did and I told them it was my intellectual property and I can’t share that with them only if I am guaranteed the job, and one of the dude who was the boss asked me to gerrout. Was it wrong for me to say that, the question keeps bordering me all through my journey back home.

Family / Re: Is It Right To Hide Or Belittle Yourself To Find "Wife Material? by onlyhope: 4:41pm On Jul 27, 2021
I wasn't planning to quote you but I like the way you presented your argument. However, your argument is flawed. You even used the word 'modesty'. Damn! Are you saying you will not marry a modest man? Let's even assume the man is not wealthy. So, what you imply is that, if I earn a nice salary, drive a Camry 2014, you will choose someone that drives a Mercedes Benz 2020 over me? Given that both of us (me and the other guy) has the same net worth? See, net worth is what matters. And, actually, you should not be able to tell someone's net worth except they want you to know it.
Amhappy:
If you think being modest about your achievements will land you true love go ahead but don't over play the game. And it also depends on who you are aiming for. Modesty will not help any man aiming for Otedolas girls for instance. I think as a lady you should bring on your A game to land a good man. Show your best part not your worse. And don't allow anyone guilty trip you for going for the best. There's nothing wrong with a man with money. No matter how you pretend we ladies love to have wealthy man or a prospective one. Forget Nollywood love stories. Can he provide for me and my children is not being materialistic. Just make sure you bring something to the table also. Everyone love a good life
Family / Re: Is It Right To Hide Or Belittle Yourself To Find "Wife Material? by onlyhope: 3:07pm On Jul 27, 2021
Phew! I read this thread from beginning to the end. My contribution is, a man should do what pleases him. If you're yet unmarried and you're viewing this thread as a man, do what you like o. No be the woman go feed you o. You can check the advice from the ladies here, only one lady agreed that you should keep a low financial profile when looking for a wife. Me, even if I have the money to buy a car, I no go buy am. Also, if I have a house, I'll tell you it's a rented apartment. How do people even determine who has something to offer? I've never looked for a relationship from a woman because she has money. So, let's assume that a lady is 20x richer than me and I did not know but she agrees to date me. If I now discovered she is 20x richer I will run away? B.S. As a man, appearing as if you have nothing is the best approach to getting at least 'a compatible' companion in the present Nigeria's context. Everybody dey street o. Whether you like it or not, dating is a game and it will remain so till Jah comes.

I don't know who is offering you what you don't even deserve.
Sex is something done by two married adults.

Literally, they both enjoy the moment. I don't know who is offering who their private part.

Vaginal smell isn't recorded in many ladies.

Vagina is called fish in some countries, why? Cause naturally the vagina in some cases give out a fishy smell.


99.9% is all what your imaginary upper case produced.

Learn not to stereotype.
This is one of the most hilarious comments I've read on NL. So it is called 'fish' in some places because it smells like rotten fish. This is hilarious....

All these distinctions you people are making between working/lazy; brilliant/slay queen women are nonsense to me, tbh.

The hardworking and dignified women that most men will still insult that she slept her way to the top, and accuse of being lonely because she's too sophisticated and can't find a man on her level, and she should dumb herself down and be submitting salary to a husband, if she ever finds one, so he won't feel emasculated?
No woman will work (hard) her way to the top independently with people insulting her. Also, how do you mean, submitting your salary to a husband?

Investment / Re: MBA Investors Forum by onlyhope: 10:02pm On Dec 02, 2020
I am not an investor with MBA Forex, but I have been checking this thread (almost often) and wishing the company to have a good comeback. I am happy the company was able to overcome some of these hurdles, and pull a stunning comeback.

I am particularly interested in this thread because, there are over 1000 Forex investment companies and academies in Nigeria.

Will all these companies be scams?

Besides, TB is now less than 1% per annum; mmf is about 1.15% per annum; what does an average Nigerian do?

So, instead of cussing and forecasting doom, I would have preferred if we suggest some 'verified, legal and secured' investments where investors can put their money.

As Nigerians, the earlier we realise that we need the triad of high risk, medium risk and low risk investments to scale this country, the better.

Best of luck to us all.
