Na so life be , it’s called bridging the GAP.

I watched an interview and snoop dog said that when you get to the top it’s hard pulling others up cause they gonna drag you down with them.

ITS CALLED BRIDGING THE GAP

It has happened to me too, my best friend doesn't talk to me anymore.

That is wickedness in high places the bible talked about ..🤔

Franzinni:
Bro your vow means nothing, sit down and take stock of what you have to provide to the world and they will give you money for value and start doing it with the aim of being the best in the world, then money will come to you naturally... My boss currently use to be my boy that looks up to me, but life has made this so today and I had to accept that fully and absolutely, to now be able to grow , there is nothing like you, it's the ego that makes you feel you are lacking behind... Money is good, it will help you enjoy life more but it should be a slave and not a master, you don't know how those your friends happened to be rich, so you don't need to bother about them because comparison is the thief of joy. Be grateful you are even alive. Follow God in SPIRIT and in TRUTH, and watch how wonders happen in your life ... But most importantly, seek God in spirit and in truth... If you are ing your decisions through your understanding of God , then life becomes perfect

All other things cool, but being a servant/employee/subordinate etc to my boy or subordinate is a no no abeg.
Partnership is better or a relationship of mutual benefit, but working with him as your boss na all shades of wrong
@Op, stop seeking for friends that are made, build yourself so you can offer something of value to them.
I'm not the richest of my pals, nor the wisest, but there is none that I will call once and won't try to return my call, that's because I'm not seen as a parasite

Run your own race, nobody owe you anything. Do you even if the money is legit or fraud?

you used 250k to buy drinks as at 2014 and you think that guy would take you serious? and he would share business idea with you? lol

You are no longer in their league

there are a lot of people who don help your guy get to where he is today and he is indebted to all of them indirectly. He cannot be giving everyone money na. E go soon broke.

what can you provide to the relationship. if nothing, then it is better he avoids you.

If both of you have been growing together, it will be difficult to abandon you. Because both of you are in the same stadium performing different games. You'll always check up on each other during relaxation mode.

But when both of you don't always see each other, you're likely to be abandoned.

Why? We make new friends in every new place we find ourselves. And those friends happen to be the ones that move at the same frequency as us.

Another thing is envy and entitlement.

Friendship and family permit you to help your own. Because we all can't grow at the same pace or become equally successful. So, the rich must help the poor, and the strong must help the weak. This is how it should be.

But the poor and weak can become envious and entitled because they are at the bottom. Rather than learn to climb the robe, they plot to rope the necks of the strong and weak.

It's not that your rich folks decide to abandon you. They are just being careful of being kidnapped or poisoned by a jealous friend. Or, unnecessarily paranoid about intended evil.

Overall, your friends and family must experience your higher position. There must be a ripple effect of this goodness so that all can grow in unity and not pose as a burden.

Anyway, if your rich homies don't want you close, don't get sad about it. It is the motivating factor you need to level up.

Your own is your own.

There is nothing like "our own".

Thanks.

...because being rich means being busy...too busy...

Because they have been dealing with your old bad habit like jealousy, envy and all the trait of poor people. The stench of poverty is what they try to avoid once they made it. Some people energy is ominous and you can not continue to associate with them if you want to continue winning.

They were never your friends in the first place. Real friends would seek you out once they're successful.

They are not rich, that’s why they ignore them, leeches.

richmond500:
They know u don't have a future.

Not only are u a chronic gambler but u won 250k in 2014 and used the money to buy drinks.

250k in 2014 is like 700k today, even u will ghost someone like u

By my estimation 250K in 2014 is worth almost 1.3million today and not 700K!

Sirchiboy:
I have know this guy wayback in 2013.
We live in this compound.

I could this was the period bet was popular so I normally use to win bet.
Each time I have game I give them and we all we win.

. . .
I repeat.

I dash them money and bought drink ...
Late 2016 we lost and I went back back to my state because things were hard for me.

2022 I heard that this guy has blow.
He now has a company.
Last month he bought a house and car in leakki.

I sent him chat on FB and he doesn't reply me.

I didn't ask him for money.
I just asked him to give me one or two business idea and this guy read my messages.

Never reply me.
The same thing happened too with these three Guys back in school that I use to help during exam .

These three guys have built houses, married and have cars.
I am still here struggling.
I swear and
I have vowed that this earth will favor me and this money all of us make it. . .
I repeat

I have always told people to know who they call their friends because those you think are your friends are only acquaintances.
That is what many of those we call our friends are and will only be.
Moreso, there is a big difference between I know thos person and this person is my friend.
We ought to know what we are to people rather make yourself believe and think it's what you think they think as well.
Don't let your situation bring about a misconception.

Even the bible said Old things shall away....so any thing old is a shit.....new tinz come first..... Make i go sleep back jare

You didn't help them get rich.
So your presence with them is definitely to make them poor back, like you.
That's why they disconnect.
And if you insist on linking up with them, they will insist on running away from you.

Cause they have money

Eeeyah!
Focus on your life o bro.

There are no friends these days. I've learnt to keep to myself

Life advice: avoid the unlucky and unhappy.

Check yourself very well. What's making you to be unlucky is right at the tip of your nose. By your narration, I can deduce envy, jealousy and sense of entitlement and a sheer stupidity. You are stupid and nasty to money. You hate money so much that in 2014, you made such money you said you made and all you can do then was to buy drinks and probably carried Oloshos.....money doesn't stay with people like you. Money runs from your type and that's why I concluded that if I am your friends, I will avoid you too....You aren't a good friend to keep, you can even harbour evil plan towards your wealthy friends cos they are richer and the fact that you know them while poor. Just check your life and your attitudes and quickly change your old ways......

Just talk about yourself. Am not Rich but by God grace I can afford good things for myself and also give out and I prefer to hang around my old friends regardless of thier status any day any time.

It takes a mindset to be rich and it takes another mindset to be mentally rich.

The rich also need people because they see how money changes people and everyone around them is unreal. If you're not mentally rich, you will behave in a crab-in-the-bucket way towards the rich friend.

When people are looking for material wealth, the kind of conversations they have starts to change. They discuss solutions, not problems. They see opportunities within challenges so they don't have time for gists that you used to have in the past. They also don't like to complain, which is most of what normal people do. It is not that they don't know there are problems, it's just that they have elevated themselves above these things and don't want you to drag them back to whining, which solves nothing. If you have something of value, trust me, they will come to you because humans need each other for various reasons. But you must respect YOURSELF first and let people evolve.

Also, some of them are afraid to offend you because you will judge them no matter what they do, so it is best they jgnore you. You must learn in this world that life has seasons and not everyone can be our friend in all seasons. ENJOY the seasons and don't take it against them.

Most people become envious or feel less when their friends achieve more. Some want handouts etc.

It happened to me in 2018 when one of my dude bought his first car. I felt inferior, not gonna lie.

I have learnt my lessons sha. Even if my friend buys a country, I am still going to relate to them as my friend. No inferiority complex or anything. If the friendship is not going to work anymore, it won't be from my end.

The dude I am talking about now owns a fintech in lagos. He could easily employ like this.

Bros forget about asking them of business ideas cos some of their wealth could be I'll gotten,like rituals, kidnapping, robberys etc,just keep striving and you shall be enthroned into greater heights, I've experience same

Just last week there was a thread and some of you think everything is show-off or seeking your validation. Yet you expect your rich friends not to cut you off? So that when they say they don't drink pure water, you will start crying like egbere. Or when they post vacation pictures, you will think it is to intimidate you? They can't breathe well in your presence again. All that stress to keep associating with you? Say you be who kwanu?

It is the same way Nigerians claim their friends abroad cut them off. Not one, I mean ONE, of my friends have japa'd and cut me off.

Your wahala is too much. Truth is, we all know our friends. We know the ones that are sensitive to our growth. We know the ones that are problem children. We know the loyal ones. Once you grow, you know the ones to cut off. Na normal thing. 20 kids do not play for 20yrs. E get who go even quote me for Nairaland in 2025, I no go reply am.

dtruth50:
I don't know if it's because I'm an introvert, but if I know you and you are rich, I will avoid you as if we never met, unless you talk to me first and I will never let anything that concern money to come between us.

I'm good the way I am.

Not only friends sir family member sef that is why I always like to be on my own

I'm depressed
