Buying and shipping shoes from China can be very expensive because of its weights. And selling them here may not be profitable after the whole expensive. So I want to cut the cost. I'm looking for where to buy very nice Men and women's shoes and sneakers here in Lagos at a wholesale price and resell for profits. I mean NEW shoes not tokunbo's. Any Idea please? Thanks for your contribution and suggestion on this.

Hi guys, Good evening.

I have been into mini importation for a while. I have been really sowing and reaping from this business.

We have been doing mini shipments with almost all the well-known China agents here on NL. Using their normal and express shipping plans. We have really wasted a lot of cost on high weight items which resulted in little or no profit most times.

So this year we want to move higher. We are buying huge items that have lots of weight..and using these agents normal or express shipment is not an option for us. These items are coming from China.

So I want to know how we can bring the items using Sea shipment?

I don't really understand the CBM measurements..how many kg that makes cbm?

What is the process and how much is the cost, please?

And the process of clearing the items here Nigeria?

I really need help for this. And will be grateful to anyone that is willy to guide me on this now.

Thanks in advance.

How do you get reviews as a new author?

I first heard about kindle publishing back then in 2014 but was occupied with lots of projects. Have seen lots of thread on that here and it looks like that is a very good source of income. I'm thinking of starting now But asking if its too late for me to start now? I see that its going to be more competitive now such as getting reviews and outranking others. And I dont also know how profitable it is now. Anyone here to help answer these questions in my mind.

Thanks

Mologi:

thanks anyway.

If you have enough money you can rent one room apartment for them.

Nice one..but Even if I have enough money to rent them another apartment. These boys are still young to be left alone and they are new here and don't really know their way around the city

Hi everyone. I'm currently leaving with my 2 younger blood brothers now. I invited them few months back becos I wanted them to come to town so they can be useful to themselves. I have enrolled one to continue his schooling here while another one is learning some skills.

But my issue now is that they are occupying my apartment [mini flat] and this is really affecting my private life. I'm someone who really loves privacy and freedom but I can't really help this with these boys. Inviting a female friend and telling them to excuse me always looks somehow.

Another one is that... I'm in my early 30s and needed to settle down soon but these blood brothers presences have not really been easy inviting my girlfriend over and spending much time with her at home as usual. I'm not too happy with this decision of inviting them to come leave with me.

This is affecting my personal life and my relationship with my girl is the type that loves spending time with me in privacy. I cant afford to be hanking out always with my woman while I have a home. and It wouldn't really make sense asking them to leave now..as it wouldn't make sense to the hearer.

The older one is in his early 20s and just came and doesn't know about the city. I invited them to monitor and help build their lives.

It's not that my girlfriend is complaining but I know I can feel the comfortability in her and it is affecting my private life too.

I'm not confused and needs a matured advise from matured minds here.

Thank you

Hi everyone, I have my junior brother who came to live with me for some period of time.

I want him to learn a profitable and long lasting skill that will help him in life.

I thought of IT skills but don't really know which IT niche he should go into.

He is about 22yrs. And ready to start up his life.

So plz I need your advise for him.

Thanks much in advance.

Just needed to talk to someone..Thanks everyone for your advises so far. Very good points so far.

Good evening all
I don't like discussing family in open ground but need get this out of my mind.

I saw myself as a first son with about other 4 younger ones.

I just look frustrated now..the reason is this.

Everyone is depending on me. My daddy has been sick for yrs now which has really cost me a lot without solution get.

I often provide food and provisions for them at home.

I am in school and am the one response for myself and my school fees and all that.

My younger ones are relaying on me for their school and their personal needs.

This has really stops me from getting marry as earlier as I planned.

When ever I got call from home..it is always money needs or come home and fix this and that needs.

I can't even focus with my own personal life. And I can't just abounded them at home. They are my parents and family.

When I see some other families I wish I was born in such home with less or no struggles.

Most times I cried and ask God to help me bear the cross.

Most times I just get Frustrated and wish something else.

Brothers and Sisters please I need your mature advice.

I don't want to die young with these kind loads. Not to talk of how huge the loads will be when I add my own personal family (my wife and kids).

Please can you drop me a mature advise that can help me on this Please.

May be its my imagination running wild truly. But it happen this evening na...and today na Sunday, no work today.

That's why I dropped the thread.

iamadonis2:
Chei... This one weak me!

Ehn... I have this personal rule; if I begin to "suspect" you in a relationship, I walk away.

No time for emotional stress over another nigguh jare.

I want to be absolute sure before walking away. God knows that I wouldn't look back.

Dextology:
It is never easy being in a distance relationship. It breeds room for doubt on being faithful. Actually yours is not that distant since 400naira can make you see her.

She might be tired from the days job and might sound weird on the phone until she has refreshed and relaxed from the activities of the day.

If you are finding it difficult to trust or believe her pay her a surprise visit at the time you suspect she's someone else. Talk to her about what you feel (some ladies actually sound dull if they are tired). A relationship without trust is not a relationship at all.

Thanks for the point and your contribution

This is my first time of keeping a distance relationship. I met this girl and we have been dating like 5 months now. She is a kind of a cool girl, innocent looking and really appears to be a very good wife material. Although we live in the same state, but in different cities [about 400buck transportaion] We do see once in a while ..just a few Sundays...Because of the nature of her. She works mon-sat and stays with her relative. She doesn't have much time to come to my side often as my location is not close to hers. But we have been keeping strong communications via Phone calls & WhatsApp.

She told me she had a bf but due to some complicated issues they are no longer dating but they are just friends [just ordinary friends] which i have overlooked. We haven't had the opportunity to nack ourselves [have intimacy] for now. Not that I'm too dull for that but really need time to get to ourselves well, take things slowly and likely have her as my wife. Honestly, I really like her but not sure if she is innocent as she said and looks.

But my issue now.. I'm beginning to suspect this girl. Most times I will call her outside our usual call time [Unexpected time..my targeted time] and then she always sounds somehow on phone as someone wey dey recieve doggy style... She making some strange mooning sounds/noise and cuts calls those times calming it's network.

She closes from work by 6 and not allowed to out from home anytime from 8pm. So sometimes i will give a surprise call within 6 to 7;30pm. Our normal conversation time is 9pm.

Then when I called her at our normal time..she will sound well just normal without such strange sounds. I have recorded those 2 sections ..listen to them again again and no longer find it funny. suspicious

This has happened like 3-4times. I'm really suspecting this lady. But don't really know how I can track her down on this shit. Although I have confronted her on this yet. I just want to be very sure first.

For me, I have been keeping myself for a very long time now...not that I never had intimacy b4 but had stopped all that stuff for long now so I can settle down with someone special. But will not ever allow someone take me as a fool.

At this time of my life now,, I don't really playing games or allows someone playing games with me. It's time to have my own new home now.

I don't want to conclude that she is cheating on me but I don't want someone playing games with me..becos I hate shit.

Guy, So I want to know how I can track this lady that claimed she loves me and find out if she is cheating on me or not?

This is somehow distance relationship but not that much distance to me..I can go that area any time I want.

I just want to know ways I can test, track and proof that this girl is not cheating on me? I want to make sure this lady is innocent as she claims.

Guys, please I want your honest and mature advice here.

STARGREEN:

Hi friend, I want to roll into part-time [distance learning studies] at Univeristy of Ibadan. If you don't know..the application form is out already. I just got the application form now. Am on the stage of choosing my course but am a bit confuse the one i should choose now. Among the 5 courses, my 0 level result suits only two courses there...which are political science vs philosophy. Can someone help me out choose one among these two. May be you can give reason why you choose it for me. I need a relevant course. Which of the two you think we really help me and I will really benefit from now & in the future

Thanks Much in advance. I love you guys.

Hi good people, most times life really turn upside down for some people. I just got news today regarding someone..who is a commerce driver....accidentally killed someone last 2 days. I really hate seeing life waste. But sometimes you can't control something. And he has been arrested and in prison currently. I don't really know how we can go after this case and get this his brother out of this case. I have been praying but need solid advice from mature minds here. I will be travelling there soon, so i will know the right step to take.

Thanks in advance Nairalanders.

VenantCode:
I don't advise going to any school. What i do advice is buying internet access, a laptop and studing yourself. There are lot's of resources online, you can start from FreeCodeCamp.com and W3Schools. I think that's all you need. Welcome to the Developers world

Thank you VenantCode [/b]for your contrubution. I have learnt many things online that has been helping me on my business now. I know I can learn this online but I thought this kind of course is a techinical and practical skill that needs someone to sit you and guide you on them practically. Learning online, if you have question or confuse on my area..i don't think you can ask your computer any question.

And also learning together with other like-minded people will likely help you achieve much. Just my thought...I stand to be corrected though.

grayht:
Hmmmmm New Horizons?
Lip sealed

[b]grayht Don't seal your lip o. What happened with New Horizons? Any bad experience with them?
Please Talk o. I need advice on this.

ANTONINEUTRON:
learn everything online


or go do computer science for one uni. get certificate

Thanks ANTONINEUTRON Are you sure studying those course in Uni will be good option? As it requires more of the practical not just having the theoretical knowledge on it. Athough am not really in pursuit of the BSc certificate on them. that's just the secondary reason not the primary reason why am going into that field. I just want what to learn the skills and learn it well, master it and make money with them.

Hi Nairalander, I want to build a professional carrer on programming and web development for a self employment, freelancing and employment purposes. Although my background has been on affiliate marketing & blogging with not good stable income. As you know the economy is not smiling anymore so man need to empower himself and also get a good skills. I guess programming and web developing can profitable and promising skills to acquire.

Although I dont know anything yet on programming..and just know few things on blogging & wordpress stuff. And educational background is 0level.

I have done some research on Best IT training institutes here in Lagos to learn these skills. I got to know about Aptech, New Horizons, Hiit etc.

I went to their offices last few days. Here are their price update.

New Horizons .. Web development course ... 5months = 130k
New Horizons.....Programming Course.. Java = 130k ... C# = 145k

Hiit....Web development course = 70k
Hiit...Java = 90k

Aptech ...Advance diploma in software engineering [ADSE]....2YRS = 1.4M

Aptech also offers opportunity to study for a B.sc abroad for 5months. Which I find interesting too.

I'm really confuse now. Although I really need the skill and be very good at it not just the certification.

Please Which among these institutes deals you think will be good for me? Which one of these institutes and courses is best currently??

I really need your advice to make a decision.

Thanks in advance.

So where do we get copyright free images to use??

You know as a man, sugar is not that too good for you. At least it will make you not to perform well in bed with your woman.

So am asking what will one take to him flush out sugar from his body system?

I need honest answer please.

Thanks much in advance.

Royal155:
U dey call dis 500k as if na big money! or abi u wan buy land 4 evil forest?

Brotherly, the money is too to start with. If you are lucky enough to see a plot at that price, then you have to wait for dunkey years for it to appreciate.

Thanks for the insight. So like how much start up are we talking about here?

betterpikin28:
Why don't you raise a little more,cos the money is too small to start with,except you want to buy land ane keep for some years to appreciate while you go into housing agency.
Remember you need to register ur company,look for a office to rent nd all. I will suggest you should raise a lil more or look for more money especially if you re based in lagos.

Noted ..thanks
