I can remember making a mistake when it comes to trust, I mean my friend whom I trusted wothy life stabbed me at the back, at this point I felt like dying

Literal stabbing? Or they smeared your name. Give me details.

Not literal though but the pains remains to show how deep I was hurt

Ohh, so sad. But, did you still maintain the relationship till date?

did you stop trusting

Yep, to some extent though

trust those that earn it. It should be earned

working towards that

When I lost my former office suddenly, I had only NGN90,000. I got another place where I need NGN270,000. I saw a telegram group where they advertize that you can tripple your investment in 5 hours. I gave them the 90,000 and they ran away.

money mistake , double money zero income

Hahhaha. Ma'am, it was a terrible mistake that took 2 years to reccover.

am really sorry. How did you pay for the office

Jesus 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺, you lost your 90k? Infact I for dey hospital up till

Hahahahha. It really affected me. That was in 2019. As a result, I stayed more than 1 year before raising money for another office. This place I am staying now. I entered in April 2021.

Naaz, I know you are more than careful now haha 🤣. Sorry about the lost though

It was my first and last time of being scammed. I suspected it was scam. But i just took it blindly

such a thing has happened to me as well. Though little money was taken away from me. Now I don wash eyes wait for them

Hahahaha. Dont try ponzi or anything money double. Its a killer

I can only imagine the pain you passed through

Holy shit what a huge amount of money that's a really big mistake that requires flogging

I would have preferred flogging. What happened is more than that. It delayed my business for almost 2 years

Wow 😣 well everything happens for a reason you were able to cover it up abi

Hahahahah this one is called Ohukokoro

Hahhahahaha. I was going to shit. I ended up stepping on terrible shit.

exactly and this shit na Aboki shit

Black and smelly

🤣 🤣 🤣

so sorry

It was one big gamble that set me back 2 years

I can only imagine.

This one is terrible oo. So, how did you cope?

That's really painful.. That's why is good to ask questions ❔ first before engaging on anything business matters to avoid bad results like this

i regret not starting something for myself before marriage

Chai Chai!!! It's not too late. You can start something

Sure I have to.

Oh, I have a friend that said same thing. Its like the burdens of child-bearing and family makes it hard to learn a new skill or start a business, right?

Yeaa very much and the little you have gets spent on school fees and other stuffs

Love no dey think right sometimes

Love is blind but marriage is an eye opener

this has really affected so many ladies today, but it's not too late you can still do something

Really it's becoming an issue for so many ladies ,yes I need to something about it

life always offers chances to grow, even after marriage. Talk to your partner about your dreams and try to achieve them together. Remember, life is always changing, and you can still begin new things.

Dats the truth. Better late then never they say

One of my biggest mistake is marrying a Man that is opposite of me.

Ohhh, that's too bad and I do consider such as the biggest mistake one can make. Nevertheless, what keeps you going?

Not everything that is sweet goes to the mouth

Powerful adage!!

Please ma, explain

owhave you ever looked at your boyfriend face before and say, you look so sweet?

Uhhmm, thanks for reminding me. Tomorrow I gonna do that to my fiance. Expect my answer thereafter

Really? Why and how if you don't

Some question are better reserved

Okay I get it

This is such a hard one. I am really sorry ma about this. You must have gone through a lot as I know. But how you are surviving and doing well is surprising.

freI learn that happiness is a choice so I choose to be happy

Honestly, you have really handled it well. Can you tell me the most difficult aspect of being a singe parent?

It is in decision making

Really? Some decisions are best done by two persons right? Or even best done by the man, right?

Hmmmm that's another mistake that hurts forever, I can attest to it

adopteIs like we are in the same sheo

And it looks like there is no way out sometimes

Is always like that sometimes

Honestly

awwuh??? Really painful indeed. So, sorry ma'am. May the Almighty continue to be your strength. Hope you are coping with your family

'emI have nothing to regret anymore

Am happy to hear

so sorry ma'am it's hard to imagine forever with the wrong man

I have made many mistakes in this life. And I learnt my lessons. I will like to talk about two mistakes I have made.

A mistake that is yet to be properly learned from can be a regret.

why such opinion

Having discussion people who feel that made me come to conclusions. But still open to opinions.

it's time you learn it to avoid regret

Is it really avoidable?

Ohh really

As humans mistake must be made but do we allow our mistakes to define us?

Sure we ought not to learn our mistakes to define us. Rather we learn from and mistakes and become better person

Ohh dear friend, do well to share your past mistakes that you learnt from with

One mistake i learnt a big lesson from was making bad friends at school

Not really a mistake but a goodwill that was made to seem like mistake

Letting our mistakes define us means we won't head anywhere

What do you think? Feel free to express your past with

There is no need for that

I know we imperfect, Why would say there's no need for that?

on what please

We have to move one

Moving on is the best option than wallowing in an already did that's done

Not moving on is another big mistake we will ever regret

Funny and right.

Honestly

Yes, ooo.

Mistake is something we humans can't do without as we are imperfect, except there's a fellow here that's perfect, anybody here?

Yeah, nothing is too late.

You made a right choice bro, sometimes were we look to get something is not always were you get it

Chinneke?? Lazy student then, how about now

Ha now I got admission so I am gonna work hard cause my school is survival of the fittest

please ooooooooo, I don't want to hear stories that touches the heart

Yea you won't trust me and Jehovah

So you're one of those lazy students then? Say the truth, any difference now?

Yea am trying my best to meet up

why regretting

I had to write my exams twice

Ewoo sorry. What lesson did you learn from that your mistake?

To eat very

I never really wanted to attend a Polytechnic. So after leaving secondary school in 2005, I continued to take Jamb, pass it and fail Aptitude test for 4 years. Eventually, I got fed up and picked Abia Poly form in 2009. 4 wasted Jamb years

Really?? Thank God that you finally made it in University levels. But I will 🤺🤺🤺🤺 for failing Aptitude test for 4 good years

I didnt fail. They sold my results because each time, it was excellent. I was reliably told thats what happens. I wanted to study Electrical Engineering. But am happy it never worked. I studied computer science in the Polytechnic

Oh ok!!! Good to know. I was surprised because I know you Sabi book well well

Wowwwww, first time hearing this.

Yes. No body in the family knew. Hahahaha. Keep it to myself. Suffered alone

But here you are doing well, so what advice do you have for us

My advice right now is: Dont even go to school. Pick up IT skills and be a professional in them. You will do far more in 4 years than wasting them in this terrible school system.

Same advice one of the teachers gave i and my classmates during our high school graduation.She said "Schooling especially in Nigeria is a waste of human resources, pick up a skill, and be perfect. in the next 5 years you'll be glad you did"

Thats it. Thats why I am trying to give you all the tools and support you need in this IT and crypto world. Its one of the best career paths

do you regret going to the polytechnic?

Wow its really a struggle

I was actually younger and then, university was considered superior to polytechnic. So I wasted years trying to get admission for Electrical Engineering

So what did you study in abia poly

Computer Science.

Wow I Neva knew abia poly does that course

Yes, they do a lot of courses now more than in 2014 when I graduated

I graduated in 2014. Did NYSC in 2015 and returned in 2016.

Wow 5 years course?

4 years course. You must do a compulsory 1 year IT after your second year

It was a tough course then now. University is always superior to poly I prefer it to

Hahaha. The course I studied is best done in a Polytechnic. Because its practicals. University dont have time for that. I wont suggest to someone to go and study Computer science in University

Because of the practicals?

Technic means a school where more of practicals are done. If you are doing a practical oriented course, do it in polytechnic. After graduation, u can do a 1 year course and still obtain BSc that they give university people

So now, does it mean polytechnic didn't give you the exact knowledge you dreamed of?

It did more than expected. If I have another opportunity, na Polytechnic I dey go

Wow. So, if you're opportune to train someone in high school, which would you prefer? University or poly?

Ohhhhh, I'm sorry about that but you're good now not as a result of the education you've attained

Another mistake I made is appearing as a citizen of Nigeria

why do you think it's a mistake?

Hahahahaha are you happy you are Nigerian?

This one is your Papa mistake no be you

😂 I wanted to arrest him

is not too late

You nobi better person

okay sorry

😂😂😂

I dont consider this mistake in the real sense because no one choose who their parents are or where they lived.

Mistakes has led to regrets, we just have to be careful and cautious

interesting. But how can one identify whenever he or she makesa mistake?

The bad consequences is always visible

Do all mistakes come with visible consequences?

Well, making mistakes is part of us, we were born with it so I don't blame us but then we shouldn't allow our mistakes overwhelme us

impressive.

But,

Please how possible?

What I regretly regret in my life is when 🤔🤔🤔🤔

still listening ooo😂

I made a mistake of ignorantly sending my personal details and email to some fraudsters and ended up having my money swept under the carpet

chia this is a very serious issue, people are just ready to embezzle people's money

Please, how did it happen? Share with me to avoid making same mistake

like seriously?? So sorry my dear. How did that happen?? The call you on phone or what

Yap, was a phone call

While I was in my early 20's, I always said That I will marry before 30. See me na, am 35. I wish my earlier plans worked out. Somebody should come and pay for my head na.

Meanwhile, why didn't you meet up with your set goal? Was it a mistake or a regret? Lolz

My first relationship did not work out. So I relaxed and took my time instead of making mistake. Thats why

Interesting. So have you found one now or should I hunt one for you?

I have the sweetest babe in town. So proud of her. We are fine, thanks

Uppps, sorry sir. My regards to her

Hahahaah, am on my way. How much is your head?

Until now, I do regret as my social media and bank accounts has been hacked besides it's still active used by the fraudsters to dupe other innocent people

Oh this happened to you? That must be terrible. Did it happen recently?

Of course it did, happened last year

Sorry. Did it happen recently? Is your bank aware if it?

If you'd like, you can report the issue to the bank so they can block the bank account.

Regarding the social media account, you can create a new one and make a post explaining that the old account has been blocked. If possible, you can also tag the old account.

Thats sad

owni fill like crying 😭😭😭,but I will not cry because big boys never cry. I regret not being able to talk to a woman when I was still in primary school 😭😭😭

'you self. Please talk to me joorh am a woman. Haha

Okay my dear

Okay my dear, who will teach me how to talk?

Let me share this with you. Please no laugh me ooo! I dey shame to talk am. My biggest mistake was to leave hive for the past 4 months. Hahahaha, thank God am back. Though I have missed a lot

It was a mistake really. You should have passed this level. I am happy that you corrected that mistake. Now you are back

Sure, no going back now. Imagine my reputation still 58🙈🙈🙈 not withstanding, I will make it up again

Oh you have noticed that some of those you left now are in 63, 64? I am sure you will work harder and catch up. Count on me for support

Ohh dear friend, sorry. Please don't dwell on your past mistakes. Overtaken is allowed.

Noooo, play with other matters, but when it comes to my bro, he's off limits

Ok ooooooooo

One of my mistakes!

After I lost my job in 2015, I searched for another job for two years before I realized I was in Nigeria.

That was when I came to Aba to understudy my friend who is a tailor

Sorry, meanwhile, which is your mistake?

For haven Wested 2 years at home.

Quite understandable

Another ugly mistake i made was not listening to my immediate older sis on some matters for example she warned me about opening a spam mail in my phone, i didn't listen i clicked on the mail and lost my facebook account.

Ehhyaa, sorry. So, what did you learn from it?

listen to older ones cause they've had more experiences than me . i never even experience anything.

o interesting. I just learn something from you

What was your own mistake ma

Sorry about that. Hackers are on the loose

Studying a course that's not related to health in a school of health was one of my mistakes, though no regrets.

What course was

Public Administration

Wow and which school was that

Oh oh. I guess they did not handle your course too well, or what where some challenges you faced?

The did their best trying. But I would have forfeited it

You mean you wanted to leave the course?

The did their best trying. But I would have forfeited it

The did their best trying. But I would have forfeited it

Secondly!

MMM..
I invested all my monies then, I even borrowed some more money (100k)
All the money I lost in that scheme is 350k. I can't still believe it.

MMM Swept people's money all away. So, what lesson did you learn from it?

I was the most affected.
I didn't even cash out penny.

Just like the widow or Zarephath, that money was all I had. At this point, I was also indepted to someone else

too bad. But, did you let the person you're indebted to know what really transpired?

No. It's not his fault.
I tried to pay down gradually

This is a huge amount then when money has more value. How did you cope pls

Not even that!
That was everything I had.

Oh dear me. So how did you pick up your pieces after that. What was the next business you started?

That was when I relocated to Aba to start understudying my friend to be a tailor.

Waooh. And now you are doing big as a fashion designer. Thats why we should never say never

I really thank God

Another mistake I made is not marrying a tall sweet man as I always dreamt off

Hahahaha. Please why do you wanted to marry a tall man?

They are advantageous that short men

woooow. Tell me more. Remember, am still single. At least, let me know the best thing to do now to avoid regrets

Nooo you have your choice to make, we don't have same test of men

Please, tell me one advantage of it naa.

They are good in some important things

Lol, tall man you say?

Ahhh most times our dreams no de com true 😆

hahahaha, na me wan go marry am Abeg

Last year, we got involved in another scam. @fokusnow and @sammyhive can relate. (Smart swap.)

Under this arrangement, I lost more than 400k.

It was paying initially, I then brought In more funds, and.. Some1 should please hug me🥲

I lost 1.1m. I invested more than 1300 USDT

God!
So sorry boss

That thing set me back massively if not that Steem covered us.

You are bobbling again!

Ahhh, that's too heavy. Didn't it weigh you down?

It didnt. But i was set back massively

Sorry lease, how did you cope?

Yes. It was not but we survived it.

Note Do not use tags in your response, thanks

I can relate too, my bro lost huge amount of money my dad as well

It's was a crisis.
I had also invested 300k on my sister's phone. Plus mine.

So sorry, What lesson have you learnt from those mistakes

I learnt to stay clear from ponzi. I can smell one for miles away

😂 good lesson

You are laughing at me?

We were in the same route. Nevertheless, did you learn from this our past mistake? Van you do any ponxi scheme again

Me and ponzi are now two straight lines that can't meet.

So, how can you identify ponxi scheme?

By their mode of operation, I will know. It's all about get rich quick

Ohhh, I see. But there is other ways by which you can recognize them. Check one of my latest threads to know

Ok. I will.
Thank you

yes. I lost more than 1.5m naria. More than 1800 usdt

Chai!
It was a disaster

a lesson learnt. But we will keep helping others

Yes.
The future actually belongs to risk takers

Giving my friend my money as a loan

#talkingpoint

keyboaThey didn't refund?

Giving my friend a loan.

#threadstorm #regret #talkingpoint

At my friend's wedding, He had spent all his money and still need some cash for drinks and food.

The worst part is that it was my only capital and means of survival.

1/2

#regret

Why will become indebted because of celebration?

I was not the only person owed by him

1/3

Mine was painful because that's my only survival.

1/4

All his capital was wasted in that occasion

1/5

His suffering tripled when his wife gave birth to a baby girl. Now, three mouth to be fed when there is virtual nothing to do

1/6

He was stable in business and doing well. Why will he engaged in extravaganza in the name of marriage

1/7

Till now, he have not paid me back... I did not bother about it but regret my actions of helping him.

I am too emotional to people's needs

1/8

if you loan money to someone that is not faithful with money, it will not end well.
So sorry.

now, I give alms to friends and family, not loan

It's better to be safe than sorry

sure. He

A positive view of our mistakes helps us to become better people, who's with me?

Am here. Tell me more

Looking at mistakes in a positive way means we see them as chances to learn and understand new things. When we think about what went wrong and why, it can stop us from making the same mistakes again.

What a positive speech. But avoiding a mistake, does it mean you're free from making mistakes in life?

Do you mean it's bad to remember ones past mistakes in life?

Well, should I say made a terrible mistake of applying for skill acquisition in a strict and inconsiderate domain, could you imagine I just stepped into the house

Ahh, you mean you're just reaching home by now?

Yep, no cab
Had to trek home alone on the lonely street

Please apply caution oo. Life is expensive o..Emm, can't you anticlockwise
