I one of my course mates in those days that was lavishing money sent to him to keep from his elder brother abroad. His brother was deported later and when he asked this my guy for the money, he started giving excuses. He suffered for this act to the extent that he was sleeping in the church

Don’t be stupid, be specific on the country you send money to and kindly tag your family you’re calling out. It is stupid of you to be calling out a continent and even a whole nation for the irresponsibility of your family .

This issue is widespread! It's allover the continent. People from Kenya, South Africa are complaining about the same thing.

I am in , a friend here reached out to his child hood friend and told him that his mum was sick, his friend sent him some good money and paddy man used it for his babes birthday ed it on his status while blocking his friend from viewing. The guy found out through a mutual friend he was showing photos of the party and the fun they had over the weekend, that was when my guy knew he was barred from status viewing. Most jobless people knows how to groove, their idea of money is for "flexing".

A man with 5 children and a pregnant wife is busy somewhere sending SOS to someone with two children.

I sense too much of entitlement feeling and anger in you. She has a point,those who you're helping should tone down their living.you can't be living large at the expense of others, just like my cuz who spend 15k on a very small handbag that's not worth it but she's always begging for help. Wisdom is profitable to direct

US-based Guinean lady reveals why she has stopped sending money to her family in Africa

According to her, she visted her home country eight years ago and discovered she has been funding the lavish lifestyle of her folks back home. She said she realised that her folks back home are living a luxurious life that she who works for money does not live in the US.

Take a listen!!!

This is pure jeolousy. Envying your own family is the height of witchcraft. 100 dollars mean a lot o, she will labour so hard to earn it o


It's not their fault that they live in a place where the 10 dollars you send can get them a luxury it can't afford you over there. If you look at it, you still spend the bulk of your money more than them because you send them chingum money that can't take you a week but spend thousands of what you send to them here for yourself. So how are they enjoying more than you?
Person go just dey begin calculate the small 100 dollars ( wey be like 100 naira to am) wey him dey send say e too much. Small prayers wey you for receive for sending a meager 100 dollars, you now lose it because of over calculations.

It's this wicked mentality that is making many of you to be stingy. It's very bad. If they have the opportunity to be there like you, I'm sure they won't ask you for anything.

Keep your money. Those in naija go still shine and fresh una because we eat real natural organic food and get natural Vit D year round.
You guys wait. It's only a matter of time, we will soon have good govt and nobody will send you and your lonely lives abroad anymore.

Very stingy people.

Stooopid heifer.

This is the bit that irks me. Taking on the saviour complex...well babe, newsflash! The people waiting cap in hand for you are your family. Na your specific family be the hopeless destitutes who can't live without your handouts. Be specific about these things.

Title of her rant should be 'Why I stopped sending money to my beggarly family in so-so-and-so location'

No be strangers una dey send these monies to na. You literally send it to your beggarly families (emphasis on the 'your')

Truth be told!

Africans are living a better and more secured life. Not in actual security, but future security.

In real sense, you own nothing in the western world. You just need to get it wrong in a big way and you will be back to square one!

You never own outrightly! Taxes will keep hitting you till the day you die. And you just default on those taxes and everything you owned will either be foreclosed or retrieved.

Africans live a more peaceful life but they never appreciate till they are soaked up in debt in another man’s country.

That is what made their countries better. Humans are not suppose to possesse anything apart from good living. What is the uses of accumulated properties and wealths when non of them will follow you to the grave? It was this selfish mentality that kept Africans where they are today.

You don't have to remain poor,it begins with the change of mentality, if people like you won't listen to advice but want the person's cash to squander and keep coming again to ask for more then i give up on your likes. Untill you can afford a luxurious lifestyle, live moderately, how hard is that message for you to digest
You can't be using iPhone15pro and be crying for help grin,it's either you're under a spell or just delusional

I don't even know what to say on this topic, both parties are here dropping their own ideas.

I dey 9ja here dey manage, but if I eventually get the opportunity to travel abroad, nothing will stop me from sending money to my loved ones, that's if I have enough and I no they don't have.

Why should I envy my brother or sisters progress. So, because my sister build house for Nigeria, I go come stop sending her money?
