oh thats another good business though it is getting oversaturated already

Yes, but people like him that have made it big will always have an edge. He started buying crypto, building properties last year, maybe as an investment but the guy numbers are big, bigger than yahoo boys.

OP, it might be your dressing. Do you sag your pants, and do you keep dreads, or dye your hair?
you don't need all that

Barbing round cut, t-shirt, and jeans is enough for some to call you Yahoo boys

Na your carriage Dem they observe, if you appear and walk like someone that knows what's up

You don be Yahoo boys be dat

The one wey really vex me na when I went to mall yesterday to get shawarma
I had to carry one of my high end device to the mall because I’ll have to transfer to the people over there (I don’t use ATM card )
I was making call while I entered the main place to get the shawarma so i believe the security guy noticed my phone
after ordering for everything I try to step out and baba was tryna bill me, I told him ion have cash on me to give him sha and I smile only for the security guy to make one weird statement “All these yahoo guys make una try dey help us too” I had to turn back and tell him immediately that Bro I’m not a fraudster and I’ll never be among one

So my question is why is every successful young guy seen as a potential scammer
Is there no other means to make legit money as a young guy again in this country nii.
Are there no skills again to learn in this country nii

I’ll love to hear other peeps view also sha lols because the matter tire me oooo.

Oga you did not tell us what you do for a living

Fraud Is Every Unlawful And Untruthful Way Or Means Of Obtaining Material And Non Material Things Or Possession From People. You Should Ask Instead That: Why Are There So Many Young People Becoming Rich Through Fraudulent Means.

You want him to share his source of income grin grin grin grin grin...when I see come for so so seminar and become your own boss in 2 weeks,I always laugh...successful men never share their secret....Think and grow rich contain principles that even the writer knew 1% of the population can't follow


Word!

Most successful people (legit or otherwise) paid the price, one way or the other. Just that nobody pays attention to the pain behind their success stories.
I'm in that phase right now - days I've had to go/stay awake at night or money i’ld have used to enjoy temporarily invested in a business that the turnover doesn't come immediately. Only few will want to walk this path. It's the glamour everyone is after.

I don’t know why every successful male (mostly young guys ) who are successful are tagged yahoo boy here in Delta undecided
i schooled in one of the Uni in this state and it hasn’t being easy with me explaining to almost everyone that I’m not into fraud.

Though I experience this from almost all the normal students. I don’t even roll much with girls from this state and sch (most of them will always tag me a yahoo boy at the end of the day ) because it seems everyone here na frauddey help their life and likewise the girls are into legit hook up and they don’t even cover it (the way some of the females here dress ehhn I’ll just nod my head, smile and continue my journey )
I’ve encountered two scenarios where the mum was even the one advising the young male child to go meet their bro at some other part of the state (like oghara)
The other was the mom going to fight for her kid because they didn’t wanna give him his full share from the scam schem omo I just weak dieee

But I did not expect myself seeing same mentality from the educated adults angry

The first experience occurred when I was in yr 2 second semester and my Course adviser told me I’ve changed (he knew me personally because of my good result lols ) due to the cloth I put on during my 100l days and the type of cloth I put on during the yr 2 and after the normal meet up talk baba confidently told me that I’ve started yahoo also because he can see that i now put on vintage shirt unlike the set of clothes I put on in my yr 1 (I’ve got a very bad fashion sense in my yr 1 sha lols. sometimes I even put on Ankara and Jean to lecture hall cheesy cheesy)
I had to clear my self immediately that I’m not into fraud and I’m a legit Businessman. He asked me scope of the business and I brief him a little and we ended it there by me dashing him some pocket money lols

We are all fraudsters in the eyes of God.

What is this. Who dashed humanity this pious-self-loathing manufactured by religion through which we are all to consider ourselves the lowliest, filthiest scum of the Earth before some cosmic Kim-Jung-Il? The same cosmic Kim who is responsible for the madness and nastiness of Earth-Life as presented to us. Please.

That is how a group of young boys shouted 'Yahoo" when i was entering a shopping mall.
I always dress like any normal simple guy, no dreads and stuff like that to even stereotype .
Legitimately working for my money, i wish they knew how long i have been working to start a family and later drive the small benz they thought only yahoo can provide.

It's the society we found ourselves. In this internet era where there are many legitimate ways to make money online and many other ways, people still reason that every young man doing well is into Yahoo. How low reasoning is that!

They don't just think beyond that. I have been called same too many times and I feel really bad about it, having to start explaining what you do over and over again to people that won't just stop profiling hard working able body men is quite sickening. Especially when you know that you are hustling legitimately to make your money.
