I have never flown Frontier Airlines, Spirit Airlines OR Southwest Airlines...

I have only flown American Airlines, United Airlines, Delta Airlines & JetBlue Airlines...

They’re all good & I have been generally satisfied...

Are you based in Chicago, Illinois OR Ohio?

lionlee216:


Least ticket is 1900$ return ticket if i am to spend christmas with them

lionlee216:


Chicago. Bye bye to Ohio lol

7Alexandre:


You can also split the cost into two...

You pay half & your wife pays half just like my girlfriend does...

Except maybe she doesn’t work & is currently a stay at home mum...

7Alexandre:


I thought Chicago is expensive & Ohio is cheap correct?

lionlee216:


Stay home mom ke. Agreement is i pay for everything and i get to pay half of January bills lol

7Alexandre:


So no kids yet?

If that’s the Agreement & is currently working for you then it’s fine...

Usually my Babe knows most bills including rent will be evenly split except in certain cases when I choose to pay for everything like Cable Bill & Light Bill...

Then she reciprocates by buying Groceries for the house...

lionlee216:


Things were cheap when i was in Ohio but kind of expensive in Chicago.

I dont remember paying taxes on food in stores at ohio but in Chicago, u even pay for plastic bags to pack your groceries

lionlee216:


I buy my own groceries and she buys hers. I am really not into American dishes but she eats out of my own groceries. She pays more in bills cos she earns more than me.

We have different cellphones carriers. So we pay cellphones and car insurance differently.

No kids yet. Not ready for kids for now.. trying to figure out how to train my future kids in african ways

7Alexandre:


Ok, that’s fine...

Kids are a big responsibility...

I don’t have any kids yet as well...

It cost a lot to raise one...

The Journey has not been easy but God has been faithful. Enrolled to college(Fall 2019) for an Engineering program. Will do 2years in CC the complete the rest at either UiC or CSU. Time to Intergrate into real American world. No time to check time. Me sef wan work for Boeing if dem pay good money.

In my own opinion, Visa success is more or less a lottery, Nice people with nice profile getting rejected while people with "packages" get approved. I met a guy last month and I was wondering how he got his Visa(Very local), God forgive me but i feel for people burning money just to get this US Visa.

I experienced America when I actually visited Chicago on 4th of July. I was living in a village(City)in Ohio and I can say we are just 10 Nigerians(Africans) there. All we do is go to store(Kroger), come back home. Our highest "Faaji" was Bowl of ice cream, fried Gizzard and Wild Irish Rose. Even the downtown got only 2 high rise building(The courthouse and one other building like that). So me stepping out that greyhound bus that night before 4th of July was crazy. I got into this nice apartment, the streets blasting music etc, went to downtown, I cant just help but stare at all those beautiful magnificent buildings(I walked inside downtown over an hour) just looking and taking pictures. Mehn, I knew i was in real America though 87th and state in south side is like one of this roads in Nigeria where you see people hawking stuffs on the main road.

Daaz001 said Chicago is like Mushin Lagos and Missouri is Paradise . I wasnt surprised coming from someone that relocated from one village to another village(No offense daddy ) but he got to Lake Michigan and took over 1 million pictures .. Story for another day..

Back in Nigeria, I have never had sex with a married woman/A lady with kids because the way society presented a lady with kids as worthless etc. Guys be like "Mehn, I just fcked that girl that has kids so I have always this thought process maybe something is wrong with their pvssy or something, I really dont know but then experience here made me understand they are just as normal as ladies without kids. Nothing wrong with the pvssy . I always be like I cant date or marry a single mother but I understand better they deserved to be loved as others.

If you think you love sex, You will get tired of sex when you get here, The are always in the mood, their "greenlight" is always on . So dont over do it and die for nothing. they see sex as nothing(My friend ran away from his akata girlfriend cos of too much sex) You can still be asking a lady and still be fucking without her saying YES to you but dont get it twisted, dont assume you guys are dating so that you dont get heart broken.

I am yet to see a peugeot car here on the road and when i asked my wife about the car, she said what is Peugeot?

I really dont have Nigerian friends but I met a nairalnader last week Sunday(I know you are seeing this lol).

I really wish to come to Nigeria this december but I am having mixed feelings about it. I can't just help but think I am spending $3000 to $4000 just for 15 days trip($2000+ on airline tickets alone), hotels, sight seeing, food, gift for FnF, etc. but then I miss my family and see whats going on in Nigeria. I want to go to Exhibition(for those that live in Ibadan with understand this) and do some other stuffs but mehn, the money much(I be poor boy).

One spirit dey tell me to just max out my credit card instead of using my Cash(devil is a liar)..

I feel victim of this my "new car" Its a 2AZ-FE engine that Toyota wanted to fix for excessive oil consumption but my warranty has expired . So Toyota said I should bring $3200 for fixing, I laughed! Car that is going to Nigeria next year Jan.Who wan dash toyota $3,200 on a car that drives good. Just that at 2800miles, it will be telling me low oil. I will just be topping up the oil every 1000 miles. Things are just too expensive when it comes to cars, Very expensive to fix.

Chicago boys bad. I have been scammed and robbed but God is still good. Franknetter, I dey find you oo.. One day, I go catch you for Mac shop

Do I have more to share? No

Nice day

Life of a black man in America(child support things). How is he going to survive?

This na one of the reasons why many nigerians dont want to marry young girls and have family with them over here(just my personal opinion)

NB : that's not me oo ehn ehn

lol. whats wrong with Ohio? why did u run to Chi-town?

lionlee216:


Nothing wrong with Ohio. Just not my style after stepping foot into Chicago though I have never been to Columbus, Cleveland and Cincinnati.

pretty16:


I Live in Columbus. My Friends in Texas say Ohio is too quiet for them. Lol

I was at Dunkin Donuts trying to pickup a phone for a client when this Mexican lady(works at dunkin donuts) asked me if i am buying something. I said No, I am waiting on someone. She replied I can wait outside for the person. I was shocked by that statement even people in there were shocked.

Shalom..

I asked why i have to go outside and is it illegal to sit inside dunkin donuts? She didn't say anything and walked away. I sat down till i completed my mission and left. I was not that surprised with her behaviours though. I have seen so many mexicans in workplaces and always feel they are superior. Some will be smiling at you while talking shits about you in spanish.

When doing pickups, some whites like to have conversation like "Hope it wasnt long drive, where you driving from". Immediately I say Chicago, they will look at me funny and start talking stuffs like " How you coping in Chicago with all those crazy shootings, i heard Chicago is very rough". I dont even tell them im from Chicago again. I simply say Everygreen Park or Oak lawn to avoid unnecessary conversation.

A guy in Aurora even told me he has not stepped his foot in Chicago for 5 years. I was like wow!.

A friend of mine got married and moved from Chicago to Elkhart IN and has been lamenting of boredom. I pitied him as well when i visited him. When you look outside the windows, You only see trees and bird singing and thats it. Less than 2 weeks, he is already having problems with his marriage. She been calling me like every 2hrs saying "my wife did this, my wife said that". I was like goodluck to you.

Moving to marriage things, When you are dating an American, you really need to take your time, have a connection and talk things through. My friend(Mr A) is a devouted muslim and complaining his wife has no respect for his religion. All these, you guys would have sorted out. He is fasting right now and his wife will come back from work and expect a deep kiss and hugs but my friend will be like "hell no, i am fasting". Before u know it, they are fighting. She wants him to wash her back in the washrom but he wont. I only pray his marriage will survive.

When i was dating my wife, She has a reservation about me thinking im after green card but along the line, we got along very well and so many factors contributed to me settling down with her(Got to skip some lines cos this a public forum). These people know(Americans) we Africans treat them so good. Stuffs their male folks don't do. Once they are into you, they won't let go. Before going into the marriage with her, i ready did my research well. She doesn't smoke, no tattoes, no curse words, everything is pure english, nice job and not living pay check to paycheck and most importantly, she doesn't have a high sex drive(that was the most important thing i discussed with her). I am just a big guy with small engine. I don't do every day sex. I made sure things were discussed so i dont have myself to blame on the long run but her major weakness is finance this, finance that. They are always broke. Ask for $50, answer will be "babe, i don't have it" but she will say there is a movie coming up tonight if you wanna watch, i already booked two tickets for us but i thought you said you are broke.

So its very important to know who you are bonding yourself with. My Host's friend living in Ohio had his reservation when he heard i was getting married to a black lady. All these while, the guy be saying he has seen alot in this US and he prayed that we wont experienced such. Some are ;

1. His brother was shot dead in Atlanta by a black guy while coming from work.

2. His friends shipped some stuffs to him and helped them to ship to nigeria. It didn't take long before Police came knocking. After police cases and proving his innocence, a 5 year felony was put on his record. He had a decent job and he had to quit and started working somewhere else and was made to pay $40,000 back. His felony will be up next year.

3. He was living in China when his wife used K1 visa to bring him to the US. He has 2 kids and his wife has brainwashed his two kids that they report all his movement when they are out together. Wife will be like i know u got paid today, Don't tell me you got no money. I was riding in his car when he said something. He said and i quote " i will be 40 years in few years but yet i don't have kids that will bury me when i am gone. Don't get me wrong, my kids are good kids but i am sure you know what i mean". He knew if he dare divorce his wife, Child support payment will drain his finances. Look at the paystub below, how is someone going to make it in this life with this kind of paycheck when hes paying child support..

I see threads on homepage showing young guys getting married to old white ladies all in the name of greencard. People bash them left and right asking what happens to all these young beautiful white girls. Well, dating a hot girls comes with a huge responsibility. These kind of girls wont leave their country and start chasing you in Nigeria. Truth is Marriage is a union of Interest. If a white lady doesn't want to date a white man of her age (50 and above), if she is wanting a fresh, black strong dick, then be ready to handover a greencard too. Its mutual benefit. If i was in Nigeria, would I have done the same thing? No comment . Do I criticize people that do it? No i won't as long a crime is not committed. All these old folks just need sex and ready to go anything.

They say "they" have no morals marrying a old white lady cos of papers. I am not in their shoes so i wont pass judgement on them. Some fear the risk of having kids with young ladies and getting stuck up in form of child support. We are all hustlers but our hustling is different.

I guess Franknetter came with immigrant Visa. So if i see him hugging old ladies, i will call him a gold digger but someone that has overstayed his Visa and looking for a way out, i will just keep my comments to myself. Beautiful ladies are out there but people are under intense pressure and tend to make wrong decisions.

A person with F1 visa, gets done with school, get high paying job, filed H1B or person that migrated here with green card are all hustling on a nice level with some decency while a person with b1 visa, overstayed and looking to regularise his stay, working under the table getting peanuts will do whatever it takes to get that green card by all means necessary.

My friend be always chasing slim hot girls while in Nigeria but he got here and said "Mehn all these young girls na wahala jare". Na fat and slim girls he dey chase up and down make I mention your name?

Lastly, People with conscience are not meant to be hustler in US. You will sure get your hands dirty . Ladies are not meant to come to US to hustle(overstaying visa and looking for visa). Some have it clean while some have it rough. When you see a lady sending money home to her family or go to Nigeria to visit family with her greencard. When you ask, how did you get your greencard, she will say "Omo, na God ooo" but damn, the story and dicks that has passed tru inbtw her legs all in the name of greencard and true love no be here(not in many cases though). They first pass through the hurdle of green card then another hurdle of settling down. When you see someone giving you money from here esp a lady, always try to appreciate cos it is never easy.

Saw a Nigerian lady in downtown courthouse getting married and the husband was kissing her and the lady was feeling uncomfortable but the guy was glad getting married, i smiled and told her "Aunty, no need to be shy, we all understand the situation, abeg hug your green card lol"

Reality will shock you as JJC when you come to US to hustle. If US and Nigeria happen to be on the same standard, i will choose Nigeria to live in.

My Post is not means to justify people marrying old people for papers but just to let you know the reality about things.

Shalom..

Boss ooo I greet you all for keeping this thread alive. I am planning on relocating to the US next year by God grace but my bro there is telling me I would have to marry an American to get a green card. I don't have issues with that, I just want to know if you could suggest any thing I could learn here in 9ja bfr coming over that would help me get cash. Maybe like barbing or fixing of air conditions or any other thing so that I can start learning now in preparation.
