I have stake in NB. Is it okay to increase my units at this current price?

I don’t ever sell my stocks. I am between averaging down on Access (current avg is 24), Increase my stake in Aradel or NB.

Someone who is well respected here said ARADEL would still come down to 460, so ama as well wait.
it did already and even came down to 448, I don't see it coming down again.

Bro… relax. You're acting like you showed her your bank app and she morphed into Thanos.

1. Not Every Woman is a Villain in a Netflix Drama
Not every woman is sitting there, rubbing her hands together like, “Once I see that last zero… he’s finished.”
Some just want to know if you can split dinner or afford to fix that one squeaky door in your apartment.

2. Financial Disclosure Isn't a Horror Film
You’re acting like telling her your balance is like summoning a demon.
It’s not an exorcism, it’s adulting. If you're dating someone seriously, finances will come up. Eventually, she’s gonna notice that your “savings plan” is just a jar labeled “DO NOT TOUCH (unless emergency snacks).”

3. Plot Twist: A Lot of Women Are Balling
2025 called—they said many women are earning their own bags and don’t need yours.
In fact, some of them are looking at your balance like:

“You know what? We’ll build… together.”
Or worse: “Sir, please leave the table. We don’t split bills under $10.”

4. You Might Just Have Trust Issues, Not Riches
If your has $1,287.43 and you're guarding it like it’s Fort Knox, maybe it's not women you don’t trust—it’s math.
Let’s not act like every woman’s a gold digger when there’s not enough gold to dig.

5. Your Vibe Attracts Your Tribe
If you're always checking if someone’s after your wallet, you might miss someone who was after your heart.
Try attracting people who vibe with your energy—not just your income bracket. Because guess what? If she’s a real one, she’ll roll with you whether you’re ballin’… or budgeting.

In conclusion
Tell her your balance if you want. If she runs—she did you a favor. If she stays—you might’ve just found your MVP. Either way, the right one isn’t looking for the end of your … she’s looking to build with you.

Now go fix your online banking . Not because of her—because you probably forgot it again.

Hezzyluv:
Letting her know your balance. Most women will not rest till they see THE END. undecided

Real Masculinity Builds, It Doesn’t Dominate.
Marriage isn’t a battle of power or survival. It’s a partnership. And while men do make mistakes in marriage — the real errors are often rooted in outdated thinking, pride, or fear. Let’s unpack this:

1. “A woman must love, a man must provide.”
False binary. Love and provision go both ways in a modern marriage. A woman can contribute. A man should show affection. Reducing relationships to transactions is why a lot of marriages feel like business contracts instead of emotional homes.

A man who only provides but doesn’t emotionally connect becomes a stranger in his own house.

And no — it’s not her job to chase you after marriage. If you stop pursuing your wife emotionally, someone else eventually might.

2. “You must always look like a god.”
Yes, personal hygiene and appearance matter — for both partners. But a healthy marriage allows space for comfort and vulnerability.
Looking good shouldn't be about fear of being left; it should be about self-respect and mutual attraction. If she’s only with you because of your beard oil and boxers, the problem is deeper than your look.

3. “You are the lord. Let her have a say, but have your way.”
Bro. That’s not strength — that’s domination disguised as leadership.

Real leadership listens.

Real men build with their wives, not over them.
Being decisive is good — being dismissive isn’t.

4. “She’s not a mind-reader.”
True. Communication matters. But it’s not just telling her what you want.
Try asking her what she needs, too. Love isn’t just about managing expectations — it’s about understanding and growing together.

5. “Women love conflict.”
No. They love connection. What looks like “random conflict” is often unmet needs or emotional disconnection.

Avoidance kills intimacy.

Mature couples face tough conversations together.
If you treat conflict as drama instead of dialogue, you’re missing the deeper issue.

6. “Prepare for the rainy day; never let your wife be the breadwinner.”
Prepare? YES.
Fear her success? NO.
If your masculinity collapses when your wife earns more, the issue is insecurity, not identity.

Strong men celebrate their partner’s wins.

Marriage is not a competition — it’s coverage. Some seasons you’ll earn more. Other seasons, she might. That’s life.

7. “She’s not your best friend.”
Why not?
If you can’t laugh, vent, dream, or be your full self with your wife — who are you even married to?
Friendship is the foundation of lasting love. You don’t lose your masculinity by being emotionally close — you lose it by being emotionally unavailable.

✨ FINAL WORD:
Real men lead, but they don’t lord.
They provide, but they also protect emotionally.
They pursue wisdom, not ego.
And they build with their wives, not just expect to be served by them.

We need less alpha performance, and more emotional maturity in marriages today.
You don’t lose your role by listening — you strengthen it.

allthingsgood:
When it comes to Marriage, it’s common for men (and pretty much everyone) to mess up at some point. Whether it’s a lack of communication or a lapse in judgment, navigating a relationship requires a certain level of self-awareness. Here are some prevalent mistakes men make in marriage:

1. It is a woman's duty to love, it is a man's duty to provide

A man who continuously shows affection, without anything concrete is just sitting on time bomb and wasting his time. If she is not already cheating, she will eventually leave u in frustration. Women are complex, they are to be chased before marriage. After marriage, allow her to do the chasing. Focus on providing and protecting, that is your job as a man.

2. Letting your appearance suffer
When you first started dating her, you were probably extremely aware of how you looked, smelled, and presented yourself. But now? You walk around donning your dirty boxers upandan. Okay na, she will soon get tired and leave. A woman needs to see her husband as her god. So dont get too comfortable, or she will disconnect from you.

3. Take charge
You are the lord. Allow your wife to have her say, but you must have your way. She will secretly love you even more. No woman likes an indecisive man. Be a problem solver, not weak slub.

4. Expecting your partner to be a mind-reader
Bros, women arent prophets or psychics. Sometimes even if she has an idea what you mean, she just needs to hear the words. Dont just send money to your wife without giving specific instructions/information. You will have done nothing! Tell her exactly what you mean and what you want. smiley

5. Avoiding conflict like the plague
We get it, no one likes fighting. It’s stressful and just all around not a good time. But conflict is pretty much a given in any relationship, besides it’s how you handle it that matters. So if you find yourself leaving whenever an argument starts to brew or just nodding to appease your partner, you’re being avoidant. Your partner wants to know how you feel and you should want to know how they feel, too! Also sometimes, women like conflict for no apparent reason, they can be that ridiculous. But its there way of seeking attention. grin cheesy

6. Prepare for the rainy day
Dont count on your wife to rescue you when things go bad, especially financially. You may be lucky that she does, but dont count on it. The only person who will probably accept you no matter what is your mother, so treat her well. You wife will begin to show signs when things get tough, and may eventually dump you. The biggest disaster is allow a woman become your breadwinner. My brother you are done for! cry

7. Your wife is not your best friend
Bro get it together. She is your wife and partner, not your best friend. Forget mumu woke generation sad grin

Interesting take, but let’s unpack this a bit.

Yes, Altcoin Total Market Cap is at a crossroad — sitting around $904B with visible channels both upward and downward. But here’s where we should pump the brakes before making emotionally-driven assumptions:

1️⃣ “We have more upside than down” — maybe, but not guaranteed.
The fact that the upside target is higher ($1.4T) than the downside ($584B) doesn’t mean the market has to go there next. That's like saying because the sky is high, rain must fall upward. Markets follow momentum, liquidity, macro conditions, and sentiment — not symmetry or numeric coincidence (“everything ends in 4”).

2️⃣ Leaning toward downside (584B) may be more probable short-term.
Macro headwinds (e.g., Fed policy, global liquidity crunch)

Weak altcoin dominance amid Bitcoin consolidation

Lack of new retail inflows
These all suggest correction or consolidation could come before continuation. The market may test lower before launching higher — it has done that repeatedly in past cycles.

3️⃣ Patience is important — but so is data, discipline, and flexibility.
Being patient is great, but being biased toward a particular number without price action confirming it can be risky. Instead of picking a “favorite” direction, it’s smarter to let the chart show the way and react with strategy, not hope.

Final Word:
Yes, there’s long-term upside in crypto. But near-term moves don’t care about neat numbers or hopeful narratives. Protect capital, use levels, watch volume, and always be open to both outcomes.

Because this game?
It’s not just patience — it’s preparation.

iLegendd:
Altcoin is at a crossroad. It has two strong trend channels waiting to welcome it home.

Current price at 904 billion. Down price at 584 billion and top price at 1.4 trillion. Therefore, we have more upside, but the problem is, which will it go to first? All ended in 4.

For me, I'm leaning on number 2 first, but I want you to make your own decision.

, there is more upside than down. The game is not hard, but being patient and controlling emotions is.

Let’s be fair.
Yes, the house stands out, and calling it “the last man standing” isn’t far off — because it’s actually still standing in a place where others couldn’t.

Now, about the work being "shoddy" — here’s another angle:

- Sand filling is not inherently bad. What matters is compaction, soil quality, and whether it was properly reinforced. You saw red mud? Could be, but it also depends on the purpose of the fill layer and how it was layered — you can’t conclude on appearance alone.

- Drainage size and depth need to match the local hydrology — true. But sometimes, what looks small might still be engineered based on calculations we don’t see. Not every effective drainage looks like a canal. Shallow drains can work if they're backed by proper slope and runoff control.

- And yes, we can always ask for better standards, but let’s not assume it’s “nonsense” just because it's not what we expected. Maybe it’s not perfect — but it’s also not nothing.

Sometimes progress looks imperfect, especially in erosion-prone areas where the terrain fights back. But saying "they just fed erosion" is a reach — it's still a step toward resisting it.

Instead of just dragging, how about we push for third-party inspection, transparency, or a phase two that addresses the visible concerns?

Critique is welcome. But constructive critique? That’s how we build better.
EponObi:
That house na the real last man standing.

BTW, they did a shoddy job. They only sand filled. For an area literally consumed by erosion, you would expect better drainage system. The so called drainage they implemented is not wide enough and walls are way too thin. I can see they used red mud for the sand filling self. Bad job, but trust them to hype nonsense. They just fed the erosion new materials to chow.

Upon further examination, I can see the drainage is not even deep. Lmaooo.

Poverty and Wealth Can Absolutely Be Hidden — Depending on Intent and Environment.
Let’s break it down.

1️⃣ Poverty Can Be Hidden — And Often Is.
You said, “No matter how smart a man is, he can’t hide poverty.” But many do — out of pride, dignity, or fear of judgment.

Clean but broke: There are people going through hell, but they clean up well, stay composed, wear decent second-hand clothes, use fragrances, and smile through pain. They suppress signs of lack because they don’t want to be pitied or written off.

Borrowed image: Some live in borrowed outfits, borrow phones or cars just to show face, or rely on “packaging” to stay relevant in social or corporate circles.

Digital disguise: Especially now, a person can look "okay" online — motivational posts, happy selfies — but offline they are living from hand to mouth.

Trust me, some of the most financially struggling people are masters of composure.

2️⃣ Wealth Can Be Hidden — Successfully and Intentionally.
You said, “Wealth will show eventually.” Sometimes yes, but not always. Some people are truly invisible millionaires — and they prefer it that way.

Low-key investors: Many landlords, stock traders, crypto holders, or retirees live quiet, minimal lives. They wear plain clothes, drive basic cars, and don’t care to impress — yet they have assets worth millions.

Deliberate humility: Some faith-based or disciplined people avoid flaunting wealth as a principle, not out of fear.

Minimalist wealth: In today’s world, being flashy is no longer the only currency of status. A quiet man with investments in tech, real estate, or agriculture may look “ordinary” but be sitting on real power.

Wealth isn't just visible in watches and cars. Sometimes it’s hidden in silence, freedom, and control.

💡 The Bottom Line:
You can hide poverty. You can hide wealth.
What usually gives people away isn’t the money — it’s their ego, pride, or pressure from society.

The need to show or the fear of being seen is what truly uncovers people — not their bank s.

So yes, poverty tries to show, and wealth tries to shine —
But with enough self-awareness, intentionality, and wisdom — both can be concealed.

Factcheck0001:
Good afternoon everyone, just like the topic says there are majorly two things no man can hide no matter how smart he is and how codes he is.

The first thing is POVERTY

No matter how good at management a man is, he can never hide poverty because with time it will rear it's ugly heads and become very obvious.

Any man going through financial difficulty, no matter how well he wants to hide it some things will start becoming visible. You don't need a soothsayer to tell you a man is going through hell if he carries bushy hair, faded clothes, worn out slippers.

You can just sit down at a junction and pretend as if you are making calls then mere looking at some people you know they are going through a lot.

That brings us to the saying that poverty is very hard to maintain

The second one is WEALTH

No matter how well you can hide things, wealth or affluence will show. I didn't give examples when I talked about POVERTY because I don't want to sound inhumane but let me give you a typical example of my friend who once tried to hide wealth.

He served in the north and got retained by a rich northerner who deals with trailer, he was treated well and after like 5 years the man died and our friend was well settled so he relocated to south west.

We normally call him coded due to his lifestyle of trying to hide everything, when he came he established block industry, boutique and poultry but he will still wear cheap clothes.

What gave him out was his fresh looks, nice perfumes and wristwatch always looking cool. He hid it to d extent that even his farm manager had a car already but the CEO is hoping around on bike.

Last last this guy had to buy Toyota big daddy because even the poorest in his clique was using something better, last last we all saw his house and it was one in town, he couldn't just hide it.

So it's obvious you can't hide those two things

POVERTY and WEALTH

You’re coming from a place of real experience, and that deserves respect. But let’s go into this with both truth and clarity, not just heat.

Yes — what you did was noble, powerful, and life-changing. You gave opportunity where many wouldn’t. That’s true leadership, and it reflects real heart. No argument there.

But here’s the strong counterpoint:

Giving should be celebrated — not expected.
The phrase “Nobody owes you anything” isn’t a license to be cold or selfish. It's a call for people to stop waiting for handouts and start moving with self-drive, so that when help comes, they build with it — not depend on it forever.

You gave those young men something powerful: opportunity. But they chose to run with it. You didn’t owe them that — you chose to sow into them. And because they had the right mindset, they made it work.

So the message isn’t “never help anyone.”
The message is: don’t wait for the world to rescue you — be ready when grace shows up.

Because let’s be honest:

Some people get chances and waste them.

Some wait their whole life expecting someone else to lift them.

And some, like your boys, take the blessing and multiply it.

So no — people shouldn’t walk around expecting to be rescued.
But yes — the world needs more people like you, who still choose to give a chance.

So both truths can live together:

Nobody owes you anything.

But greatness shows when someone gives, even when they don’t have to.

You’re the exception. You’re the rare kind of man who gives without noise.
But the message still stands: If no one comes to save you — save yourself.
And if you do find someone who offers a hand — honor it like gold.

That’s how we move forward. Balanced. Real. And not fake.
Tradepunter2:


Omooo mke una shut the heck up with all these useless stingy motivation talk.... I personally trained 3 young men 7 years ago when they approached me for industrial attachment.... My business was small then and didn't have no extra capital.... But I sacrificed to ensure they got knowledge and could take care of themselves with the small funds I paid them.... Fast forward today they are all doing well and still call to thank me.... I could have easily said no one owned them anything and acted like stupid fcccvvkkk the way you guys are.... But they needed opportunity, just opportunity and I have them.... So shove all these nonsense talk that are mostly rechoed by fake people with no substance

I understand where you're coming from, but let's be careful not to generalize.

First, being single or married doesn't change the facts on ground — and the reality is that people are adjusting their lifestyles to survive. Not every family is spending ₦500k a month, even if they eat decently and live responsibly.

Here's the breakdown:
Yes, food is expensive, and costs have gone up drastically — no argument there.

But many families, especially those earning irregular incomes or on salaries below ₦300k, find ways to manage within ₦150k–₦250k for feeding and essentials, without living lavishly.

That doesn't mean they’re not eating well — it just means they plan, buy in bulk, cook smart, and cut out extras.

Also, not everyone is spending as money "comes in" recklessly. A lot of families budget tightly, yet still don’t have anything left at the end of the month — not because of poor planning, but because income simply can’t keep up with inflation.

Bottom line:
It’s not about being single or married. It’s about living within your means, understanding how to stretch your income, and acknowledging that even responsible families are struggling — not because of poor choices, but because Nigeria is hard right now.

Let’s focus more on sharing practical solutions and empathy, not assumptions.

shankara7:

You are probably single..

The reality on ground is that things are very expensive these days.. A family of of 3 or 4 that eats well and live well, will spend nothing less than 500k monthly..

They might not have 40k in their as you said because they spend the money as it comes..

🔻 1. Food Prices Have Skyrocketed
A bag of rice that used to be ₦25k is now ₦70k–₦80k+ in some areas.

Palm oil, garri, yam, tomatoes, and even basic condiments like Maggi, onions, and pepper have doubled or tripled in price.

With ₦150k, once you buy 1 bag of rice, oil, and soup ingredients for a month, you're already deep into your budget.

🔻 2. Not Every Family Can Switch to Electric Cooking
NEPA is unreliable in many areas, and prepaid units are expensive.

Electric cookers need stable supply; most people still rely heavily on gas or firewood.

🔻 3. It's Not Always About "Overfeeding"
Growing children eat more frequently.

Sometimes, feeding well is mistaken for wasting. There's a difference between balanced meals and excess, but cutting too much can also impact nutrition.

🔻 4. Market Prices Are Often the Same Regardless of Who Shops
The assumption that “housewives inflate prices” for pocket money isn't always fair. In many markets, especially in urban areas, prices are generally fixed, and the difference is often negligible.

Men who visit the same markets are also met with those same inflated prices due to scarcity or transportation cost.

🔻 5. Lifestyle Adjustments Are Already Happening
Many families already avoid fast food, branded items, and luxury spending — and still find it hard to cope. Bread from open markets is now ₦900–₦1,200 in many places; even the cheapest items are no longer “cheap.”

✅ In Summary:
₦150k used to be enough, but not in today’s Nigeria. Even with planning, bulk buying, and cutting out "extras," food insecurity is rising because of the bigger economic picture — not just poor financial discipline.

Everyone’s reality is different, and while smart budgeting helps, we also need to acknowledge that the economy has made basic survival a struggle for many.
blacksam01:
Remove ur eyes from generator every evening...

Buy only bags of rice or half bags ( Watsap group that buy directly from cheap places)

If ur wife is not working, go to the market urself to buy bulky essentials...most house wives inflat prices to get pocket money

Lower your love for top brands...

Adopt the use of electric cooker also with gas..but like 80% gas..

Tell ur wife to avoid over cook ND over feeding where children run to toilet immidiately after eating...

I dnt see why 150k won't last one month... except u want to live in a very high lifestyle...like buying fastfood breads for the family instead of equally good open market displayed bread ..etc

You're definitely not alone, and your experience reflects what many Nigerian families are currently going through. Spending ₦200,000 monthly on feeding for a family of 4 is, sadly, becoming common — even modest — given the current inflation, naira devaluation, and rising food prices across the country.

💬 Are Others Spending More or Less?
Here’s a general breakdown based on recent from different households:

Small families (2–3 people) are spending ₦120k–₦180k/month.

Medium families (4–5 people) like yours are often in the ₦180k–₦300k/month range.

Some larger or higher-income households report spending up to ₦400k+ monthly, especially if they buy brands, cook frequently, or include baby food, snacks, etc.

So your spending isn’t out of range, but it's clearly straining many families’ budgets.

🛒 Why ₦150k Feels Like It’s Not Buying Anything:
Prices of rice, garri, oil, yams, tomatoes, pepper, onions, and even eggs and bread have doubled or tripled in under a year.

Transportation costs have pushed up market prices due to fuel subsidy removal.

Import bans and FX scarcity are affecting items like pasta, flour, seasoning, etc.

🔄 Is There a Way Around It?
Here are some realistic tips families are using to cope:

1. Buy in Bulk with Friends or Neighbors
forces with 1–2 other families to buy bags of rice, beans, oil, garri, etc. at wholesale markets (e.g., Mile 12, Oyingbo, Wuse Market). Shared bulk purchases reduce per-unit cost.

2. Cook in Batches and Freeze
Make large portions of soups and stews, freeze them, and use them across weeks. This reduces gas use, food waste, and constant trips to the market.

3. Focus on Filling, Cheaper Staples
Use swallows (like semo, amala, garri) with lighter soups to stretch meals.

Add more beans, corn, and okra to the meal plan — they’re nutrient-dense and filling.

4. Meal Plan Weekly
It may sound basic, but planning meals weekly helps you stick to a budget and avoid impulse buys.

5. Buy from Local Farms or Markets Early
Morning market runs or local farm connections (e.g., for tomatoes or plantain) can help beat city markups.

6. Reduce Soft Drinks, Snacks, and Fast Food
These drain money quickly. Making zobo, kunu, or fruit drinks at home can save thousands.
Wakatumbit:
For a family of 4 I spend close to 200k monthly on just feeding, we can no longer buy food stuffs the house because even if u take like 150k to buy food stuffs, u won't see anything.

I want to know if others are spending more or less and if there's a way around it.

Thanks

I did a remote job for a Canadian client. He brought a messed up job and expected me to perform magic on it
At the end, we blocked each other. All for a pay of ₦100,000 per month

Challenges of working with clients or employers(Nigerians in diaspora) remotely, especially when there's a significant cultural or geographical gap. Let's break it down:

Common issues:

1. Different work expectations: Clients or employers might have unrealistic expectations about work pace, quality, or deadlines.
2. Cultural and communication barriers: Different cultures and time zones can lead to misunderstandings and frustration.
3. Low pay: Some clients or employers might take advantage of remote workers, offering low pay or exploiting their skills.
4. Lack of understanding: Clients or employers might not fully understand the challenges and limitations of remote work.

Your experiences:

1. Overloaded with tasks: You were expected to handle multiple roles, including social media management, web development, and extracurricular activities, with inadequate pay.
2. Unrealistic expectations: Some client expected you to perform "magic" in reconciling their s, which was a challenging task.
3. Poor communication: The client's expectations and communication style might have been unclear or unreasonable.

Takeaways:

1. Set clear boundaries: Establish clear expectations and boundaries with clients or employers to avoid misunderstandings.
2. Negotiate fair pay: Ensure you're paid fairly for your work and skills.
3. Choose clients wisely: Be selective about the clients or projects you take on, considering factors like pay, expectations, and communication style.

It's indeed tough to navigate the corporate world, especially when working remotely. However, by being aware of these challenges and taking steps to mitigate them, you can have a more successful and fulfilling experience.

I think in transport business you buy ticket(s) from unoin everyday, settle police and tout.

Good afternoon Nairalanders, I hope you all are doing good? Who can share their experience regarding Motorcycle and tricycle given to people to deliver.

I spoke with my mum and she said I shouldn't dare because Nigerians are wi¢ked in that kind of business while speaking to someone today, that one emphasize a lots on it, which is why I decided to come here to hear people experience about it

Can you share your experience when given out a bicycle or even car to deliver money daily but turned sour?
