It is everywhere, and it is very dishonest. Tomorrow, the same people will say men are cheaters! Where were they when the men were toiling? Ndi stand at the finishing line waiting for the winners. I must admit tho that such an ideology propelled men to strive for success to win the "best" girl. But not any longer as women now work in the same positions as men. Both genders are now equal. Make everybody dey their dey.
Dem go wait tire. Na archive all their messages dey go. Ndi ara

25 will be 28 while 36 will be 39 when Tinubu will finish first tenure in 2027.

Another 4 years after that is how a fool at 40 and a fool at 30 is made.

How do have time to gym when your work takes almost all your time ? I wake by 4 am hit the road by 5 am , except Sunday , there's really no time tbh.
If only I had a high paying job with lot of time for myself I would be visiting the gym often.
I can relate.
I've learnt a lot lately from some of the writings of this guy, you might want to check some of these articles out.

I don't agree with everything he writes though, especially things that doesn't go in line with my faith and scriptural beliefs.

I'm still applying some of the insights picked from the guy as well. There's still a long way to go, but I'm assured that significant progress will be made with time.

The problem with men today is this

Men don't help themselves financially.
Men will prefer to help a woman they have never met in life before than help their fellow men.
When these same men need help, those women they helped financially will never look their side.
Women never help men.
Instead those women will prefer to help their fellow women.
Then when these men need help,
These men will now be looking for who to help them.

Men need to change.

Men need to start helping themselves more because in this life, you are all you've got.

Waithood is a serious case in Africa.

Our counterparts in developed world faces same issues as us. That's work and pay bills. However, for them, they are not totally disadvantaged by poor economic policies, erratic power supply, high rates of crime, bad roads, chaos, disorderliness, and every other negative things you can think of.

They still live in a good geography.
Still have good passports.
Can still travel to third world countries and live a life of royalty.

The problem in Africa is that we lack a foundational support. The men that occupy societal totem pole today had solid family background. Successful generations of today have a long line of existing supports.

You ought to build on top what's on ground as a young adult. Not to start looking for bricks to build when you approach adult reality. Because after you rally around to get things done, time is far spent.

That's why we waste much time and at the end we have little to nothing to show for it. Because we are starting from point zero - scratch bottom level.

Again we lack a community of support. If there are stable network of people acting as a therapeutic conduit, the shock and stress of adulthood will be minimized. However, that's not the case. Our individualistic approach to life, a single line ambition in order to accrue all the benefits is a serious drawback to communal and national progress.

Community presence and network ought to be a shock absorber. But we lack it.

It's nobody's fault. You can only do the best you can.

Don't relent.
Keep thinking.
Keep planing.
Keep scheming.
Keep looking for positive leverage
Get in touch with reality.
Seek light, beauty, wisdom, and understanding.

If you follow this way, you may not get all that you desire. Definitely, you will get something better than your previous state.

Keep marching forward.

Thanks.

grin grin life of a man is not easy, you get to face pressure from work, family and everywhere. I used to love movie before I was engaged with my current profession. But now I find it very hard to finish a movie, I could use days or even weeks to finish a movie. I thank God that I'm single, happy and 27, I don't joke with my peace, I don't like stress and drama. I cut off any lady that wants to add to my existing pressure cos they want to be employed as someone's gf grin cheesy. The country is hard, I just wish that an angel from Europe comes to this godforsaken country to take me to Europe.

After gym, you go give me food to eat? Foods are no longer affordable.

I didn’t make a general rule that everyone must go to the gym. Live within your budget. You can do bodyweight exercises annd stretches and still be fit. If at all you you can afford gym, you don’t have to eat the whole food in the world depending on what your body goals are. Good luck 👍🏾

honestly as a man within that specified age bracket and not financially stable, have it at the back of your mind that life is leading you 1 - 0, now if you’re a Nigerian, score should be
2 - 0. There’s no excuse to lament over the poor state of the economic , because your lamentation won’t change anything maybe it would but probably when you’re old and weak to enjoy the good things of life like expensive vacation in the pacific and all that good sh*t. The secret to Survive right now is Adaptation, they teach this in the military as it’s a core aspect of survival.

i believe for every problem, there is always a solution, it’s simple and concise. Learn a skill.
if you’re a corporate worker. Learn a skill
if you’re a skilled worker, also learn a skill.
i hate to say this, but the truth remains that one source of income is barely enough this days.

when i say skill, i mean an intellectual skill. A skills that pays you for your knowledge.
i won’t list everything as the search engine is there to assist you with any search queries, surf the internet for varieties of skills and learn a skill that picks your interest.

further narrowing this down early 2021 i was in a mess, i wasn’t satisfied with my income. i just knew the only way to survival was to have an additional skillset. i started off like this
data analysis for the first 6 month, learnt excel, python for D.A, power bi while learning sql, i found out that this career path wasn’t a good prospect for someone based in nigeria.

i transitioned from data analysis to frontend web development. AI wasn’t rampant and companies weren’t demanding too many frameworks to get you employed, competition was getting tighter and saturated. i kept pushing, the more i pushed the more i met resistance. stumbled upon a youtube video while searching for a frontend project to work on.

the youtuber is chuks maduka he interviewed Nigerian millionaires under 30. after watching his interview with habbyfx and jeffrey benson. me that my target was just to land a $1k job then and seeing these guys under 30 already having estates to their names. i wasn’t hustling enough lol.

long story short that was how i transitioned into currency trading. barely got enough sleep, at most 4hrs sleep and still had to work. i took courses and spent more time on my chart.
ever since then it’s been God all the way, i’m not there yet but i’m getting there. i’m funded with $15k as trading capital. what kept me going was consistency and determination to survive. i will say it over and over, learn an intellectual skill, so many skills can be monetized this days. peller earns a lot on tiktok live because of his funny accent. what’s stopping you from learning an intellectual skill?
for reference there’s a thread for currency traders https://www.nairaland.com/7954621/forex-trade-alerts-discussions-season

It gets crazy and messier when you see you are not getting any younger and you look at what you have achieved so far to nothing. Pressure to get married from parents and friends who are married is another thing. Financial capabilities to settle basic bills is not even there, talk less of living a moderate life to accommodate another person. The failed system doesn't reward hardwork, hence people cutting corners to meet basic needs.

Inflation is making life hard. We work a lot but can only afford basic things. Our money doesn't go far. We pay for food and bills, but can't save or buy nice things. It feels like we're not getting ahead, no matter how hard we work.

[Life no easy oooquote author=MikeofKd post=131570786] Honestly I can't lie , life of a man between the ages of 25 to 36 is quite a lot of heavy task. Recently I've been working so hard that I've even forgotten what it's like to sit back and watch a movie or do something worthwhile fun , I barely even have time for myself , it's wake up go to work , come back from work prepare for work the next day and it goes on like that , same repetitive routine every single day.


I wouldn't lie sometimes I just ask myself what is the essence of all these hard work ? Cause its not like you have plenty amount of money to just say u know what , I wanna take a trip to Ibiza this weekend and enjoy myself but ofcourse i pay my bills and rents with these hard works so it kinda still pays ,just little tho.

Whenever I think of getting older and certain things aren't even in place yet I get really frustrated, cause the clock isn't slowing down and I know death is inevitable it's definitely gonna come knocking some day , living a life just to pay your bills and survive isn't a fulfilling lifestyle tbh , I've read about people leaving their high paying jobs to relocate and live peacefully on a farm with their romantic partners, i used to think they were crazy but now i understand why.

Society has even made it worse for men within these age brackets and now the pressure we mount on ourselves is scary , cause when we get to a certain age and we haven't achieved certain things we tend to go really hard on ourselves. To top it all the country Nigeria is a failed system, designed for citizens to remain poor and when you try to make it out of this taunting challenge,it feels like everything comes at you so fast ,but hang in there and you would be just fine , this is what i tell myself Everytime.
Men within the age bracket or even above pls feel free to share your thoughts , thank you. [/quote]

I agree.

At some point in my life, I decided to take myself out of the hustle and bustle of life, challenged the status quo and now have my own life.

If you don't mind me asking, how were you able to do such, please?
