Since you said he is your friend, I'm sure you knows him more than anyone of us here... You knows if he will grant your request or not.... Since you said you haven't benefited from him before why not kuku ask him for the help and if you are turned down, you will realize you don't have a friend and move on with your life...

Reminds me of a junior colleague who left my former place of work before me. I later left too, when we were being owed salaries with no hope. I ed him when things were so difficult for my family, he blocked me instantly on WhatsApp. Few years later the table turned, life dealt him a fatal blow, he ed me with another number.........on the contrary I even assisted him and did not bother to remind him of how he maltreated me when I needed his help, but when begging was becoming habitual for him, I ignored, but did not block him make he no think say he don catch maga

Op no one pray for situations and conditions , you better ask so that you can know your true family and friends. If you die they are the first person to post or write R.I.P don't be afraid losing anyone because you seek for help. If you have you won't even think of asking in the first place, lack of it made you to ask. Who wants to help you won't block or ignore you when you are in need

smartlad: I wish you well. But only God can give help that is helpful indeed. Its just a pity most people don't really know God or how to access help from HIM. The money loving churches of today are not doing HIM justice at all. If you want to learn how to seek HIM for real, and how to pray prayers that are in line with God's will so HE can answer, message me. Regards |

smartlad: Maybe it's too late for this but you're looking at life from the wrong direction, generally people keep others close to them who have value to offer in knowledge or wealth. If you do not have either of the two, then sincerely what is the point of keeping you as a friend. I sound really harsh but that is the basis of life itself. It is either you have money or knowledge to offer, otherwise people will forget you. 5 Likes |

Dey play… Friend that you cannot count on in times of need, is that one a friend? It’s better you ask so that you will know who your real friends are.

As your friend you should know one or two things he is involved in and look for ways you can render a service that suits his line of business ,that way you are not begging , but using the advantage of friendship to cater to ur needs ( honourably). As when u present a mind blowing proposal to him in line with his business as against some who doesn't have the advantage of friendship with him yours would be considered before the others. With that being said, just let him know u offer a service in his line of work and be sure to deliver on that first job ,you would eventually gain honourably from this said friend instead of flat out begging.. Enjoy the rest of ur day!!

smartlad: Why did they block you? Is it that you were asking too frequently or what? |

smartlad:[color=#006600][/color] Identify a skill that will pay you regularly and ask for assistance from those your rich friends to pay for the training. If possible they should pay directly for it. And when you start seeing returns of investment, try repay the money. If they don't still help you, avoid them. A stranger is more helpful than a close friend or family . Some people don't like anyone to rub shoulder with them. 1 Like |

Call him first and refrain from making any demand, ask after his welfare and his family, also ask after his business in a way that shows you care and after that just hang up. You must either care genuinely or fake it. The first call, he was already expecting you to beg for money and you surprised him. Then give him about one week, call him again and repeat, ask after the welfare of his family, business, health and everything, when you are done tell him "erm, Oga Segun, I have been wanting to ask for a request but I do not want to bother you, Is there a way you can help me with this amount, I recently lost my job and I submitted about 20 applications this week, I am hopeful to get a call for interview, I really feel asked asking you since I know you have lots of responsibilities". Even if he did not give, thank him for listening to you and giving you his attention. If he gives you N100, thank him a lot as if he gave you N1million. A lot of my friends that I blocked, If they had begged my like this, I would have given and not blocked them. Never feel entitled or expect a certain amount. Try to find out when he, his wife and children have their birthdays, write down the dates and to call and wish happy birthday. If you follow the above rules, even the devil will not refuse you money.When you ask for money, I want to hear the efforts you are making to come out from your bad situations. I hate when people are broke, arrogant and cannot beg effectively. 2 Likes 1 Share |

One thing you should know...There are 10s of other people in his DM asking for money. My guy that came back from the states last year, told me how daily he has been recieving messages from people he knows/dont know asking for money. So is not easy for them also.

Then don't ask him for anything... The rich are also broke sometimes and you'll never know. smartlad: 2 Likes |

Let me tell you one secrete most people in your current situation don't know yet. A rich man would hardly give you any money unless you're offering value to him. People pay you for the value you bring and not because they like you or they're friends with you. My advice to you is to study that your friend and know what exactly he's into. Eg if he's a tiles distributor, liase with engineers then connect them with him and collect a discount. He'll value you more that way because you're offering value to his business. If you just type an emotional story and send to him, he might read it and ignore. Or send you 10k and ignore you afterwards. Sell your services to him and he'll pay you handsomely for it. 7 Likes |
