Omo, you have killed me.

After going through ur lovely write up, all my desire to do these have finished.

Ndewo.

quote author=nihilistjnr post=135562420]

Omo my dad suffered trying to run piggery and fishery back in the day.

He bought some land around the Sango toll gate area and setup a few ponds and a couple of sheds for some pigs. I used to hate school holidays back then because it meant working long hours on a dirty smelly farm with all kinds of insects biting you from every angle.

Once a week, we would go to Nestle factory in Agbara estate to buy waste product from producing golden morn then bring it back to the farm in huge buckets which was already back breaking work, but then we'd have to break it down into smaller bits to feed the fish which was just mind-numbingly boring.

Then we would have to make our own pellets for feeding the some of the other fish as well, which was even more boring. In addition to this, we have to spread nets over the ponds to protect from the herons that would often swoop in, break them and eat our fish. The problem was that the fvcking fish too were eating each other, so we also had to keep draining the ponds to sort the fish by size and move them to different ponds, because Catfish are joyless cannibals when they see their smaller brethren.
And that's also not ing for the locals in the area that would hop our fence with net and basket to steal fish as well. We caught one particular guy in broad daylight on Sunday afternoon when my dad decided we must go and farm after church, and my brothers and I used annoyance and frustration to beat the guy to almost an inch of his life.
Then the locals gathered to threaten our whole family, my Dad pulls out a machete from the boot, and it becomes this whole mess that only the local Baale could resolve...which required my dad to to squeeze something to the actual thief, and act that pained him and all of us die

Anyway after draining the ponds you have to clean out all the muck and disgusting sht at the bottom, check the gills of the fish for fungus, and all manner of othet disgusting activities.

The piggery side of things was only slightly less disgusting. Pigs don't have hair so they coat themselves in all kinds of literal shit to protect themselves from flies and insects, and given that the farm was basically by a canal, you can only imagine what the hellscape looked like. The stench was unbearable sometimes. Some pigs are also f<cking aggressive and will happily bite your hand off if they could, so we had to watch out for the odd Napoleon when the sows were in hear. The boars will try to bite you and each other, as well as fvck each other. The sows will try to bite you and each other as well as fvck each other. And they're also cannibals.

I say all of that to say this - after enduring all of that BS, when it came to selling the meat and fish, the market women would price you down to almost a kobo if they could, and I saw my dad close to tears on one occasion when he realised that his side hustle wasn't just going to fail to generate the type of revenue he expected, he was going to be disrespected repeatedly during negotiations with the exact type of people he absolutely despises.

After running at a loss for a few years, the nigga just disbanded the whole thing, did a giveaway sale and shutdown operations, but that wasn't even the end of the L. The area where the farm was located is too marshy to house building without sinking stupid amounts of money into just the foundations alone, and nobody with the kind of money to do that is going to want to live anywhere close to the area, and so he sold the land for I think close to 50% loss.

Monumental L all around. I pity anyone trying to do that business at a small scale. You're just pissing in the wind. [/quote]

Link no dey go.

Pls i am interested. Gracias

uote author=Kaycee54321 post=89231070]Yes. I'm serious. I don't mean everyone should be a billionaire but if you're not making a profit on the funds you have, no matter how small the margin, you're on a very long thing.

In this day and age, if you're begging to survive, it's your fault. It's a harsh truth which I was once oblivious to. The big question is:
"What do I do to make this money?"

I will be very brief because I know how poor the reading culture is among the "youths" of this country. Now, straight to the point.
I'm a BSc holder but I have never made one Kobo from my degree. I have always tried to turn 10Naira to 15Naira since I was a kid.

HOW? Let me indulge you:
- I've been on several multi level marketing platforms.
- I've been a middle man for people selling cars and properties.
-I once followed Ilegend's path and published a book which performed so badly that I dropped the idea of being a publisher immediately.
-My Big Break came with importation and sale of goods.

Yes, Import. With my smartphone and data, I became an "importer". My first turn-over as a rookie, I made close to 60% profit from goods worth a mere 30,000 Naira.

The point of this "brief" epistle? Well, I saw a post where someone shared a post about how he makes money online(chuksbaby), and being a "hustler",I jumped in. Then, I decided to give back...

My partner and I will be organizing a FREE importation class on whatsapp. You will be taught everything you need to know about import,sale and what exactly to sell. I guarantee, you will not regret it. The best thing is, this internet age, you don't even need to have millions before you can be an importer. Start Small, Work hard and build from there. The important thing is to make profit and before you know it, you're on your way to improving your finances.

Well, you can skip this post and hop onto the next give away thread, you can make excuses or jokes about this or you can click this link (copy and paste in your browser) to see what I'm on about.

Money is a game of numbers. Keep yours high and clean, you'd be less stressed., it's always about turning something small to something slightly bigger. Peace.

You are the delusional one, dear

U are a brillant person. May God uphold u.

quote author=swtdarling post=133922543]

Hi,your last update made me sad.I just see it as someone who used a loophole between you guys(which is to face issues as a team) to break you up,i when u mentioned that he used to defend you in her presence till she wore him down,that is a determined intruder

While I am aware that he has his fault, but her determination is so obvious,she is the only one happy in all this.if he is willing to work things out,please be open and suggest going for counseling together to change his orientation, like you said family background plays a role in how you treat others. Finally,every thing becomes easier by praying to God

All the best[/quote]

But u are exhibiting rare nigerian men qualities. Your own no go spoil!

quote author=ChiefOkporghe post=132885362]You see most Nigerian men ba, ya all deserve the kind of adulterous, disloyal and gold digging women most of you lots complain about.

This girl stuck with the OP as a new graduate and as an NYSC member... He just finished his NYSC and they have been dating for about a year plus now.

You all are blasting the guy for having a girlfriend and telling him he is not serious with his life.
But this is a girl that has shown commitment to the guy even as he has little.

Same you lots will be quick to hail this type of lady as a wife material who can stick with her man through thick and thin.
This lady is the ideal wife material you all like to talk about.

If this guy dumps this girl now and she stops believing in love and instead goes after a rich guy, you will still be the same set of Nigerian men calling her a hoe and gold digger.

Ya all claim it is difficult to find a good woman after being rich and instead to find one when you're poor.... But you're blasting the guy for following the advices you all have littered this forum with.

This was how you guys lambasted the CEO of Imran Roofing here on nairaland when he got married in 2014 after NYSC.. Look at him today celebrating about 10 years in marriage.

No man. No body close to me will ever try to disrespect my woman. That person would have me to contend with. And it wouldn't be palatable.

The amount of respect people around you have for you will be shown in how they treat your spouse and kids.

This is how you lots turn your wives to house helps to family and friends but will never imagine that kind of life for your daughters.
