if you borrow you pay back...give the man his money

So Sessegnon owes 20K what did he do with the money? Build a house in his native Benin?

Was that on Victor's verified account?
Because I spotted that and immediately discounted it as a fake account.

And they count on it...
Worse are the ones who get annoyed for "insulting" them because you asked for your loan repaid.

Naija "corporate beggars" be like: "You should be happy I borrowed from you. Do you think it is everybody I ask for money?"

That small money? I can pay it but you are asking me that money by force so I won't pay you that money! Because you are cheap! You don't have class!

I’m experienced this one. ‘If I no trust you, you think say I go come borrow money from you?’

I have a philosophy, I don't borrow money (except for Mortgage) or lend money

This philosophy is based on, if I can't afford it then I don't have it, and if anything it motivates me to save up or double down in order to get it

Call me risk averse, and I'll tell you I live a stress reduced lifestyle

In the same vein, when doing business (especially back home), I ask for 60% upfront...If the client can't put up, then we keep it moving

Back to the Sessègnon case, while I dont subscribe to making this type of things public, I can also understand the frustration of someone not returning your calls when they owe you money, it can lead you to do things you won't ordinarily do, especially if you see that person living the life on your account, and not paying back

This one comes close to home, because a client owed my about N1.5m and after 6 months of asking, I threatened to start charging interest and sending the claim to collections....

Let's just say I learnt new words that day about how he described me but the one that cracked me up was when he said "You are not a man of Integrity, asking me for your money in tight economic times"

Hence my 60% upfront that covers most of my cost
