Avoidable death.
He could have enjoyed his wins on the low knowing how angry some people on the outside have become at people flaunting their wealth in the midst of so many poor.
Una go dey use luxury dey taunt people wey never chop with so much anger ravaging them from the inside.
This will be the lot of some of our politicians and their wards very soon.
Killing that Brazilian boy is
criminal... It was fueled by ENVY!
He made legit money, but the display of wealth is just a marketing gimmick or a testimonial to let the
skeptics or public know that the business he is into is real.
ittedly Brazilian cities have experienced massive kidnappings,
car-jackings and killings in public
as far as the 1990s and there's
been a spike in the demand for
bullet-proof cars.
Nothing stops those envious people from learning how to trade or invest in crypto or any other financial assets from the teenager
they killed. Now all the boy's crypto millions have gone down the drain being the only person with access
to his details!
The universal law of cause-and-effect indicates that if you
are envious of rich people you
will never be rich because you're repelling the creative principle. Read "Think and Grow Rich" by
Napoleon Hill among other
financial education books that
I've read for over 40 years now
to understand what I mean
here.
All the best.

Marriage is one of the oldest institutions on earth. It’s as old as man himself. But people marry for different reasons. In this article, I will be sharing the 16 reasons Nigerian men get married according to “Ada Bekee”, a popular influencer on Facebook.
Even though it sounds funny, I quite agree with her on this. And ladies, after reading this post, you would be able to tell why your hubby actually married you. Are you ready? Let’s do this…
16 Reasons Why Nigerian Men Get Married According To Ada Bekee
#1. The Ones That Married Because They Are Financially And Mentally Ready
The first category on the list are those who married because they are financially and mentally ready. Sometimes, these Nigerian men may not love the bride. But they want beautiful, tall, and intelligent children. After all, compatibility is everything.
#2. The Ones That Married Because They Want To Use The Wedding Ceremony As A Fund Raising Opportunity
These guys married because they believe it could be a fundraising business venture. In fact, they are hoping that Chief Obi would buy them a car and Emy Billionaire would give them money to build a house.
#3. Those That Married To Appear Responsible In The Society
These ones marry because of the prestige that comes with being a married man.
#4.The Ones That Married Because The Bride Is Pregnant For Them
These ones married because the bride is pregnant for them. It’s either because they want to do what they think is right, or because they are afraid of the threats they’ve received from her family.
#5. The Ones That Are Interested In The Bride’s Fame Or Fortune
It’s either the bride has personal fame and/or fortune or her family is powerful and influential. They don’t mind being houseboys for the bride and her family.
#6. Those That Think They Feel They Are Doing The Bride And Her Family A Favour
Some of these ones have a very annoying attitude. Every small thing “I’ll call off this wedding!”
#7. Those That Really Love The Bride and Are Under Pressure Not to Let Her Go
If they don’t have ‘shishi’, they don’t mind borrowing from anybody and everybody. They will be owing photographer, decorator, DJ, and caterer. If people don’t spray dem money, ‘wahala’ go dey.
#8.Those That Married Out Of Appreciation
The bride has been there for them through thick and thin and through lack and poverty. They want to show their gratitude by marrying her.
#9. Those That Married Because Someone Agreed To Marry Them With Their Shortcomings
After being jilted many times, they are thankful that las las, someone agreed to manage them.
#10. The ones that are just marrying for contract purposes
It could be that they need a green card and she has citizenship or they are pursuing a big contract and her father is in government.
#11. The ones that are marrying the bride out of fear
They’ve dated her for many years and they are afraid of what she is capable of doing if they try to dump her. As a matter of fact, they are trapped already and there’s nowhere to run to.
#12. The ones that married because they love their bride
They believe in happily ever after. And truly want to spend the rest of their lives with the woman they love and continue to make her as happy as they possibly can.
#13. The ones that marry because their family (Including extended) contributed money to facilitate their wedding
In most cases, the family takes matters into their own hands after getting tired of waiting for the uncle to marry.
#14. The ones that married because they’ve found very young or very timid girls
They want to snatch her before her ‘eyes will tear’. If they suspect that she’s a virgin, they die there! They want to be her first and hopefully, her last.
#15. The One That Married Because Of Other Reasons
These ones married because they want a sex machine, baby factory, personal chef, house cleaner, baby sitter, and laundrywoman all in one person. Their lifelong dream is to be lord, ruler, master, commander and controller of somebody’s daughter.
#16. The Ones That Are Marrying For Marriage Sake
For them, marriage is just a necessary evil and being married makes no difference. Their side chicks/dicks are not complaining. They get to eat their cake and have it.
These are the reasons Nigerian men get married according to Ada Bekee! What do you think? Drop your comment below.

Neymar has astonished his fans on Instagram with a showstopping snap of his brand new £10million personalised helicopter.
The Brazilian published the picture of him sitting in front of his Mercedes helicopter to his millions of fans on Instagram, earning over five million likes in just over 24 hours.
The all-black sleek helicopter is pictured glimmering in the sun, sitting on the freshly cut lawn of the Brazilian international’s £7m Rio home.
Neymar’s initials ‘NJR’ are printed on the tail of the vehicle he used as transport during the Copa America, which took place in his home country of Brazil this year.
Neymar seemed in high spirits as he put his Copa America misery behind him.
The former Barcelona star suffered heartbreak at the hands of his former teammate Lionel Messi, as Argentina ended their 28-year drought of an international trophy.
Neymar, who scored two goals and provided three assists in the tournament, could not inspire the Selecao to their 10th Copa America victory.
The winning goal was scored by PSG teammate Angel Di Maria, with a lofted effort on the 22nd minute that proved to be the decisive goal.
The world’s most expensive player, 29, was pictured crying after the final whistle blew and was consoled by the Barcelona captain, 34, as they exchanged well-wishes.
The heart-wrenching Superclasico de las Americas defeat appears to be off the star’s mind; as he looked relaxed sitting on a wall in his socks, shorts and a hoodie, with a view of the hills beyond his beautiful home.
Brazil's number 10 resides in the area of Mangaratiba, located in the state of Rio De Janeiro, approximately 60 miles down the coast from the central city.
Mangaratiba has just over 45,000 people but played centre stage as a primary location for Sylvester Stallone’s film The Expendables, shot in the city’s central part.
The PSG forward has snapped up the H-145 Airbus Mercedes model, believed to be one of the German manufacturer’s newest and most exclusive.
In 2019, Neymar was pictured arriving in his H-145 to training with international stalwarts Thiago Silva and Dani Alves, who captained the Brazil Olympic team to a 4-2 victory over in Tokyo yesterday.
Spanish paper AS reports the helicopter is adorned with motifs inspired by Batman, Neymar’s favourite superhero.

You want to learn to work from home. And for a good reason. As soon as you stop your daily commute, you save a ton of money, time and gain that much-needed happiness factor that comes with working remotely.
But how do you go from wanting to work from home to working remotely? The excellent news is remote working is on the rise and showing no signs of slowing down. This means that there will always be new opportunities to launch your cubicle at the curb.
It all comes down to having the rights skills to get you from commuter to telecommuting. Fortunately, suppose you’re feeling a little rusty in the marketable skills department. In that case, there are plenty of affordable online courses that will make it quick and easy for you to build up your skills and get you working remotely as soon as possible.
#1. Proofreading
When you step back and think, there’s a lot of content. Let’s look at the Internet. To date, there are over a billion – yes, 1 billion existing sites. And that equates to an impressive number of articles, posts, and pages living online.
Granted, not all things online are proofread. I’m sure when you read various blogs and sites, you find tons of mistakes. I know I’m guilty of them here sometimes.
But that’s what makes proofreading so essential and so convenient for future remote workers. You can offer your furtive eyes the sites that are in desperate need of a proofreader, as well as those that already recognize the value of using a proofreader to ensure that their content is published error-free—the most significant number.
Believe me, it works. You will also be able to go from untrained, error-prone samurai to a highly skilled and sought-after professional proofreader in no time.
#2. Virtual assistance
We are all busy. It’s almost like a badge of honor these days to have an overbooked schedule and to-do list in miles. But just because people are overexploited does not mean that they are productive. I know I am guilty.
As a full-time blogger and one-man show, I often find myself very tense. My inbox is overflowing. Deadlines are frequently in the lead. There are more pieces of content to watch out for that I wouldn’t want to forget. Plus, did I mention I have an online life and a family that sometimes enjoys seeing me in the real world? I do. It is true.
This is why I often it defeat and commit an extra pair of hands to help me stay on top of the game when I can’t do it independently. And I am not alone. Today, many bloggers, busy professionals, and brands turn to virtual assistants to give them a (virtual) helping hand.
A professional virtual assistant, or VA, is a magical wizard of productivity and time management. A VA can step in and help answer emails, coordinate a schedule, help with project management, and generally help things move forward. As a future aspirant, there is no shortage of skills and services that you can bring to market like me.
#3. ing
Fact: The entrepreneur has named ing as the most profitable you can start a small business. This is because ing has low overhead and low start-up costs. And you don’t need a fancy degree to become an ant.
Instead, you need to develop bookkeeping as a skill and market it to small businesses. Sounds easy, right? It is!
#4. Medical Coding & Billing
A recent report from CNBC discovered that there are more billing and coding jobs in the medical industry than there are qualified professionals to fill them. To say this is a work-on-demand-on-demand skill would be an understatement. The healthcare sector is progressing by leaps and bounds. Medical billing and coding are essential parts of the industry that play a vital role in maintaining patient records for payment purposes. You can learn a bit more about what a medical billing and coding professional does by reading my in-depth article here.
If you’ve always dreamed of a healthcare career in the field of remote care, then it might be. But developing this skill takes time and training. You’ll need to go to school and likely get a certificate before you can land a high paying job as a medical billing professional.
#5.Transcription
I always thought transcription was a pretty necessary skill – if you could type, you could transcribe. It turned out I was wrong. Transcription is a much more specialized skill than that. After all, you need to simultaneously listen to the audio and transcribe what is said without making any mistakes. And when several people are speaking, it’s up to you to differentiate the voices.
It can all be very tricky. This is why skilled transcriptionists are in great demand in work from the homeworld. There are even areas that you can specialize in, like general transcription or legal transcription.
Honestly, you can’t go wrong with either! Believe me, I know. My very first job at home was as a legal typist. I have transcribed interviews with insurance companies, often about traffic accidents or other insurance claims under investigation. It was incredibly interesting, very flexible, and well paid too.
#6. Writing
Either you like to write, or you don’t – there doesn’t seem to be any in-between. Me? I love to write. This is why I left the corporate world to become a freelance writer, even though I had no writing experience. This eventually led me to start a blog to focus on delivering the content I wanted 24/7/365 while helping others.
writing pad with laptopIf this seems like a dream to you, you will be happy to learn that writing is a highly demanded job applied around the home and can be quickly learned. As a bonus? You can take your writing as far as you want.
Start a blog? Check.
Become a freelance writing phenomenon? Sure.
Self-publish the next bestseller? Absolutely.
First of all, you need to hone your writing skills so that you can market them as work from home skills. The best way to start is to ask someone who has been in your shoes for advice. And, I highly recommend Elna Cain as someone.
She started a career as a freelance writer while raising twin toddlers (crazy, I know). And now she’s showing you how you too can translate your ion for writing a dream job into a dream job. His journey, “Write Your Way to Your First 1K,” gives you the extra effort to put your writing to work, so you too can do your first big cool – and beyond.
#7. Medical transcription and editing
After seeing a doctor or healthcare professional, they sit down and dictate notes about your visit. These notes are then transcribed by a transcription professional and form part of your permanent medical record.
Thanks to advances in technology, doctors can also use special software to convert their words into a transcript automatically. However, the software is not perfect and needs to be edited by professionals before it becomes a medical record.
This is where medical transcription and editing skills come in handy. CareerStep offers a medical transcription and review course that, you guessed it, teaches you both the skills you are looking for. In less than a year, you’ll learn everything you need to transcribe dictation and edit software-generated transcriptions.
On-demand work skills from home, you can quickly learn online.
There you have it, 7 in-demand skills you can quickly learn to help you work from home. When you use an online course, like the ones listed here, you receive step-by-step instructions that help you reach your work-from-home goals faster. Before you know it, you’ll need to swap your daily commute into a short walk to the home office. You got that!

I want to Make something perfectly clear for you,Women are incapable of Love or Gratitude.The closet They can do is respect you,and it's quite obvious that she lacks Respect for you,she doesn't even Reply your texts Until she wants something From you.That should tell you that she's Just Dating you(you are dating yourself really) For your Money,and once she's done Using you,she will Dump you and kick you out Into the Streets where Simps Belong.
Now that you've known the problem,What Is The solution? well,There really is nothing you can do to change how she sees you, because How you start with a woman is how you are going to end with her.So just Cut your losses and move on,break up with her and stay out of Relationships for now.
Mention me if you have any Questions,and also, do Not Ever Take Relationship Advice from A woman!

It's not just the fact that she forgot, it's that she's not invested in what we have. I've taken her out on a couple of dates where the majority of the time she was on her phone and not being receptive to my feelings even though I asked her politely to put it away.
Whenever she wants something from me she uses words like "baby" but soons as I send her money it's crickets from then on. Anytime I text her during the day to see how her day is she doesnt reply back and even when she does its "good" or "okay", quick short answers and doesnt reciprocate by asking about mines.
The birthday was the last straw because I had texted her few days ago and she completely ignored me until the day after apologising but only because hers is coming up in a few weeks and probably doesnt want to burn that bridge. She'll forget my birthday but will post on her stories constantly about other people wishing them theirs. It's clear at this point that she's been using me for money and doesn't care about me. Its always the ones you least expect.
Anyways I appreciate anyone who took the time to read this, your input will be greatly appreciated.
She has other male irers who she's still comparing with you like a lot of females do. Her degree of interest in you is low. Get yourself another babe who's love lingo you understand and vice versa.

True story…
I know a guy who was on uni holidays in December 2009. He had a bit of money in his bank . A few grand perhaps. He was always frugal. Didn't like throwing stuff away.
He had a phone call from a friend who was $2,000 short on some bills that's overdue and asked for a loan.
Here's a possible conversation...
"Hey, I can't pay you back but I've got 15,000 bitcoins. Want to swap!"
"What the hell is Bitcoin?" he asked. "How much is it worth?"
"Well it doesn't actually have a point of value as yet, but trust me, you'll make your $2,000 back in a few years."
"Whatever!" he finally said, giving his mate the money in exchange for a piece of paper with some nonsensical codes on it.
"Don't lose it!" his mate said and with that, he was gone.
The guy just puts the piece of paper in a safe. Forgot about it for years. The keys to 15,000 bitcoin just sitting idle, collecting dust. Until 2013, when he realised the sheer luck of a random transaction has made him a millionaire.
But he didn't sell. Won't do. He was patient. He got a decent job. And his hobbies kept him busy.
A few weeks ago we were chatting...
Hi Jim,
Over the last 10 years I’ve became accustomed to this industry and I used that ‘luck’ to help others…
Let's chat some time.
Cheers and love the Whitlams reference 
Just a regular dude who's sitting on tens of thousands of Bitcoins.
No doubt Australians will be hearing about him soon. He will be the first Australian bitcoin billionaire, with barely a digital footprint. Which is how he wants to be - like Bitcoin itself - pseudonymous.
Watching. Waiting. Contemplating us mortals from a different planet.
Planning to make his dent in the universe.
I feel sad for the guy who sold him the bitcoin for $2,000, since it is currently valued at AUD$150,000,000.
Copied
WTH! No source for this story.
What's the point?

AKWA IBOM TO RECEIVE 500,000 BOOKS
Akwa Ibom State Government is working out modalities to receive up to 500,000 books and to build 31 LIBRARIES across it's 31 local government of the state over the next 12 months.
The arrangement, in partnership with Books for Africa, the largest shipper of donated text and library books to the African continent; will ensure the shipment of books valued at $4 million to the state.
This was disclosed last Saturday, when the Secretary to the Akwa Ibom State Government, Dr. Emmanuel Ekuwem led a delegation to inspect the Marietta, Georgia warehouse of the BFA.
Dr. Ekuwem, who inspected the facility in company of Marietta Congresswoman Lucy McBath, expressed delight at the partnership and pledged the readiness of the Akwa Ibom State Government to ensure effective collaboration.
The BFA team, which included Executive Director, Pat Plonski, Warehouse Manager Brad Mattson, and board Mike Essien, Nicky Mundabi, and Matilda Arhin, briefed the visitors regarding the organisation’s participation in U.S. government programs including the USAID Ocean Freight Reimbursement Program and the Department of Defense Humanitarian Assistance Program.
Dr. Ekuwem was in the United States to participate in the annual convention of the Akwa Ibom State Association of Nigeria, USA.

Weinberg:
There has never been an instance Urhobo had a fatal fight with Igbo in Nigerian history..Or Even protested against Igbo people living in their land..Are you really Urhobo or just FULANI er of APC from rejected Sahel desert?
You are incorrect @Weinberg.
First off.
During the Nigerian Civil War, the present Ondo, Delta and Edo States were invaded in 1967 by the rebels who were majority Ibo-speaking and taking instructions from Col. Emeka Ojukwu (rtd) to spy on (or monitor) Col. Victor Banjo (rtd) as the figure head and proceeded to impose their will and control to the annoyance and deep resentment of the major ethnic groups in the area (Binis, Esan, Urhobo, Isoko, Itsekiri, Olukumi, Ijaw, Ika, Ukwuani, etc)
of the Mid-West. Infact a lot of the
Bendelite groups like the Urhobos and Binis ed the Nigerian Army because of that unwise 1967 Mid-West invasion according to
Col. Ogbebor (rtd), a Bini man in a newspaper interview.
Second, in the early 2000s, "The News" magazine reported that an
Ibo trader was very rude to an
Urhobo traditional ruler and this
led angry Urhobo youths to go
on rampage against Ibo traders
in the area because what the
trader did was an abomination.

Grandstanding is okay. But it shouldn't be at the detriment of truth. The outlying Igbo areas to the west were subjugated by Bini over hundreds of years. This was possible because Bini wasn't attacking Igbo as a race, they were raiding individual remote communities. Now in that writeup by Reno if you get the background of events he's talking about, you will realize this sale of Igbo slaves (Ika people) predated the British. The Binis who had a strong monarchy were richly supplied with guns to carry out this raids and subdue this Igbos. This happened much much much earlier than any British misadventure in that area. The names of the ports of collection of Ika and Ndokwa slaves were called Escravos and Forcados, which are Portuguese, and not Harcourt or Douglas (which are British. So Reno is actually right.
The of Olaudah Equiano strongly s Reno's position too. Mind you the Igbos in question here are majority Ika, then Ndokwa, then a bit of Enuani.
Juxtaposing Reno's with the reality today you can see there is an agreement of facts. The Ika are very very slavish to Bini and bear Bini sounding names (as a receipt of slavery). Things dont really change if you follow events closely from the far back periods.
The former name Escravos (
Ugborodo) is part of Itsekiriland which was founded over 500 years ago by Ilaje-Yorubas from oil-rich
Ugbo kingdom in the nearby
Ondo State, while Forcados is the eastern-most boundary of Ijawland according to the books written
by historians and the iconic Isaac Adaka-Boro before he ed.
The Aros sold the Ibo tribes of the interior to the Ijaw middle-men of Bonny, Nembe, Brass, and more, who then resold them to the European and American slave dealers in the late 1700s to the early 1800s. I read this years back from available sl.ave ship records and history books.
When Jaja was sold into slavery, (Jaja's father was a well-known
sl.ave trader too in Amaigbo now in
Imo State) he was marched off on foot and by canoe to Bonny Island which was a notorious Ijaw sl.ave hub. The Ijaws had many Ibo sl.aves as well for domestic labour such as Jaja who was a boy slave in Bonny before fleeing (in a war with his better armed Bonny rivals in 1870 as a freed "Ijawnised" man) to a part of Ibibioland called Ikot Abasi (that area of Ikot Abasi is now called Opobo). Opobo is originally
Ibibioland.
So Ibo captives from the areas East
of the River Niger definitely were
ed off or resold to slave dealers of other ethnicities whose lands had direct access to the
sea like the Ijaws, Itsekiris, Efiks, Ibibio.
Interestingly, Hausas, Kanuris and
Nupe captives from the dubious
Fulani jihads were also sold via
Yorubaland (Lagos Island, Ajase or
Porto Novo, greater Badagry region) and Whydah in Benin Republic. They were captured in
the Northern interior then resold
to other slave dealers from other ethnicities till they got to Yorubaland, etc.

Eugene Gray Eugene Gray, lives in Canada
Culled From Quora
Canadian PR hasn’t changed my life yet. I used to work at The Boston Consulting Group, KPMG, Discovery Channel and Google outside Canada, but I wasn’t happy to live/work in European and Eastern European countries/offices. I didn’t belong there. I dreamed of Canada since I was a kid, started planning immigration in 2007, understood how it works and what I needed to improve to be eligible and through the process. Several years ago the Express Entry program was launched and I applied in the beginning of 2017. Everything was transparent and clear. As for internal transfers within Google or other companies, they were available, but not to Canada. This was the first signal for me.
Before I moved to my new home. I’ve travelled to major cities prior immigration as a temporary resident to learn more about the culture, job opportunities and places. I found that so many people were doing low-profit business and they weren't satisfied about that. Some of them told me in person, others wrote on Quora, that it’s incredibly hard here to find a good job. I said ‘Hah, it’s hard everywhere’. And this assumption was incorrect. Most of people failed to find meaningful jobs. And one day a ‘good’ person said: ‘This country is for losers, what are you doing here with your experience? go to California!’ I thought this guy was an idiot and I stopped communicating with him after that conversation. It was the second signal for me. Since I dreamed about Canada for a long period of time, I shared Canadian values and believed that one day I will truly belong here. The only thing I needed is to find my way up.
Once I became a PR and got my SIN, I discovered that there were so many artificial barriers created by Canadians to protect their country / community against ‘foreign workers-invaders’. It sounds relevant to many countries, but this was a huge cultural shock for me. These barriers are well-known as Canadian Experience, lack of communication skills (you must be a native speaker to get a good job), some sort of ‘local’ skills, licensing in many industries is a norm (you must be certified to do what you do, and in majority cases you pay money and waste your time to learn what you’ve already known), only Canadian education is considered as education by many employers, and of course a Canadian-born pride, there is nothing wrong to be a proud Canadian, but only Canadians say it all the time and everywhere, I didn’t hear it from any other nation. Having these qualities will definitely increase your chances to find a meaningful and well-paid job. But it sounds like a discrimination in the 21st century. I conducted a research on this topic. I created two authentic profiles - one for a recent immigrant with a foreign name, who earned a degree from a prestigious Canadian university, but without Canadian experience, and another one with a local name, who was a Canadian-born, with similar skills, Canadian degrees and local work experience. Results were awesome - a response rate via online applications was 2 times higher for a Canadian-born applicant, and processing time was much slower for a PR. Tested region - Toronto, GTA. upd: There was another research on this topic, conducted by Philip Oreopoulos and Diane Dechief (2011) Why do some employers prefer to interview Matthew, but not Samir? New evidence from Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. This was the third signal for me.
Before coming to Canada I knew several people and they were interested in my experience, they told me that I had to finish my PR process and get SIN before we could go any further. So I did my homework and knew that job market is a hard candy. Once I completed all required immigration procedures, another thing was discovered - I could penetrate the market with my experience and skills, but all meaningful positions were 'reserved' for Canadians 99.9%. I've applied for 30+ positions during several months via network and online, and I had interviews with 20% of them. However every time there were 'better candidates'. After understanding the problem, I decided to apply for a Canadian degree and build stronger relations with Canadian experts. I told myself - if you want a meaningful job, you have to be a 'better candidate'.
Coming back to your question - did it really change my life? It doesn’t look like my adaptation is over, but it took much longer than I initially thought. I hope there will be something positive in the end. If it exists, I will find what I want in Canada or continue my search elsewhere.
Thanks to everyone who read, upvoted, commented or subscribed. This is a very important problem for many people immigrating Canada. I hope my answers will help you to analyze risks and opportunities. I don’t blame Canada or Canadian companies for doing this. This is a great business model and politics, however as an immigrant I'm feeling same pain, as many of you, and cutting my way through.

Good morning all.
Yesterday was bad market to everybody, maybe being weekend or the market just doing little correction. So yesterday I woke up with 680k + 1%
Then I woke up with 625k - 9% this morning. That's why you are seeing a huge percentage loss's of yesterday market
Of course before 9AM, i have made back all my losses of the two days and even more.
That's why you are seeing 806k. I have converted all My assets to USDT
I might not trade anything more today, even though the Market seems to be very good.
I am a very contented person even though i love money very much.
1. Yesterday profit and loss
2.Last 7 days profit and loss
3.Bars for last 7 days profit and loss
Like i told someone here, it's in the next 7 days, you will all know whether i am gambling or not. So no celebration yet.
Insightful. Good thing you're
converting your assets to
USDT.

Let me be honest with you, even though you marry her, one day when you guys have a very bad argument she'll call the guy and he'll take advantage of your situation, if she misses him sef she'll create drama and chaos for an excuse to have space to visit him (she'll come back to you though, because guys like that won't keep her trust me)
He has imprinted on her and there is nothing you can do about it, rid yourself of emotions they are not useful to a man, wear a garment of self respect...that girl is not for you, you need a girl you'd imprint and groom for yourself if not you'd always take second place in her heart......you may not even be her 4th choice.
Feelings blind you from the truth, purge yourself of feelings so you won't be distracted from your purpose pursuing another man's property....let me ask you this why didn't she call you when she was drunk.....you think she is stupid, she called him on purpose because she wanted him to Fvck her, so I assure you he didn't take advantage of her.
He is the typical bad boy who smokes and drinks but wouldn't commit to her....DON'T SET YOURSELF UP.
Nuff said!

Next, they have started donating sperms of different viscosity in her puna.....It happened to three different teenagers within my neighborhood.....
When they are high on Redlabel or Mac dowells and they were able to regain themselves the following day, they would discover the following that:
1. They missed their period
2. They lost their phones..
3. They lost their Handbags
4. They lost their pants....

Advising from experience, most mistakes we niggas do is that we are sometime too committed knowing about the past of our lovers and if shes honest enough to tell you the truth it starts hurting us and we start judging them whenever they make little mistake in the relationship, I once told my ex gf that her past life is of no interest to me but the present and future and she was open to me and told me severally her stories with guys in the past at a point i asked myself weda this babe still get womb sef, i went ahead out of curiosity to ask her like how many guys have dated her before me she should not lie and she told me excluding me it's around 12 guys, my fellow niaralanders that's the day everything changed bcux I keep wondering those are the numbers of guys when don knack this kpekus when she date oo , how about the ones when she no date when still chop clean mouth, my brother from that moment onwards I begin get double mind and whenever shes not with me I hardly believe anything she tells me bcux I now see her as loosed...to cut long stories short, if you cannot deals with the past of your lover never bother yourself digging what will eventually destroy you, focus on her and forget her past but since you cannot deal with it already kindly let her go in peace, this life no balance at all.
