Are all these deliverance ministries real? Don't they remove one problem and add millions more to you?

doggedfighter:

Keep quiet and stop yarning nonsense

otipoju:


Poor is relative....and that is your opinion. It is what it means to him that matters. His one year earnings can take good care of 5 years of bills...that one is a fact.

Klass99:


What happened? Why haven't you been able to graduate? No judgment just curiosity.

I haven't kept tabs on a lot of people I grew up with, but I recall one classmate from Uni (Sonia, not real name) who used to slay in the Accounting department, she had beauty and brains, and was topping her class like kilode.

Shortly after she graduated (I studied a 5 year course, so she left before me) she told me she was getting married to some young politician in our home state and would like me to be on her bridal train. She hadn't even done youth service it was that period of awaiting service.

Given her outstanding academic record and age at the time, I felt she was making a mistake by opting for marriage so soon. She's the sort of high performer the likes of KPMG and PWC would have snatched up ASAP.

Today, I hear she is divorced with 5 kids. When I think of her and our days in Uni, I feel like a bright and rising star was derailed in her prime and didn't shine more brightly to her full potential for most of the world to see.

Intelligence is the ability to solve problems for the betterment of your life...80% of toppers are not doing well in real life simply because they were just brilliant not intelligent. They can memorize 100 pages of book,they speak Queen English but they are not intelligent.they don't know how to solve real life problems, they are only good at memorizing things....

kdot20:


Yeah. But I won't stop though. I will go on to make sure it never happens again.

Let me answer for myself as i was the class topper from my primary school to secondary school days.Most of my average classmates then are in their final years while i just started not too long because I refused to study just any course I was given but I'm still pressing on sha its not how far but how well.
Thankfully I've become street smart and not just book smart as i used to be before.

Noemic:
Interesting. This begs for lots of questions tbh.
Most importantly, which currency were they earning in? Which country do they live in?

Oluvan:

"For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

"But we will not boast of things without our measure, but according to the measure of the rule which God hath distributed to us..." 2 Corinthians 10:12-13 KJV

Numero9:




Competing and measuring intelligence with score is something I've always hated and will continue to hate. The educational system is doing more harm than good.

GiantParrot:


Yes I can see how it begs some questions. But you shouldn't expect normal outcomes from exceptional people.

An engineer in a multinational oil and gas company who starts working at age 23 can comfortably save 10million naira or more per year. Investing 10M at an average of 15% ROI (common performance in many oil and gas thrift and cooperative funds between 2010 and 2019) with interest earnings rolled over annually yields over 100M naira in 6 years, thanks to the magic of compounding.

A product manager at Facebook/Google has apart from his regular pay, RSUs that amounts to $300k and vests after four years. For someone who graduated at 20 and became a program/product manager at 25, $300k vesting at age 29 will amounts to over 100M naira post the 2016 naira devaluation. Note that I have ignored all regular income here.

Truly this applies to a tiny minority of people. But these guys have always being exceptional.

Noemic:
Splendid! You totally broke it down well enough.
Quick question, which ioc in Nigeria pays entry level employees 1m per month?

How many companies in Nigeria in general even pays up to 600k for entry level employees?

Nuttella:
It's from your foundation, some families are under serious witchcraft bondage/satanic bondage, some people's parents have destroyed strongholds in their family, which is why their life is smoother than yours, so they dont have to battle ancestral powers. God could use you to destroy the foundational powers in your family, just like he used me and is still using me. Stop comparing yourself with others, they attack people with great destiny more, they steal your glory and use it for themselves, it could even be your uncle or aunt doing it to you, you have to be angry in the spirit and collect your blessings and glory back from witches, occult men and demons. Like I said life is spiritual, if you are caged in the spirit realm, your life will be running around in a circle.

stasius:
My class topper is a professor of statistics in UK now.
Prof at the age of 29yrs.

chetmann:
That you topped others never meant you were smarter. When I was in school I hated academic protocols and curriculum. I never topped a class apart from my primary 5, I read outside the scheme topics that i find absorbing but it put me behind in position. In the end it paid off, i did better externally,I got admitted before the toppers,became an engineer,and got employed. [b]In life generally our emotional intelligence ,persistence and grace leads the way to success than IQ and skill. [/b]Cheers.
