2024 New Year Goals | Same Old Me
I can't be only one in this boat. 2024 new year goals same old me.
The thing is every year, I've had new year goals written on a notepad, at some point I even bought a whiteboard to keep me accountable.
I don't think lack of accountability is my problem, I just can't again with life. Like I'm tired of chasing "more money", "more properties", "investment goals". All those things are carry over courses I've been repeating for like 3yrs and honestly I'm just done. So this year, no goals, no new year resolution.
I'm just there, whatever happens happens. We'll see I guess.
Am I the only one not doing a new year resolution or new year goals this 2024?
I can hear echo! I moved houses and I need to find the right place to record :(

Canadian & Nigerian Passport Privileges
มุมมอง 88811 หลายเดือนก่อน
Since I got my Canadian passport, I've been to 9 countries, and I only applied to one of them. Now with a Nigerian passport, passport privileges were kind of a myth. I could have still gone to all these countries, but the difference is the visa application time and cost for these countries and let's not even talk about the scrutiny you face both during the application and even at the border wit...
Beware of Tech Scam - Tech Layoffs and Hiring Freezes
มุมมอง 2K11 หลายเดือนก่อน
2023 was for the books, there were massive tech layoffs and hiring freezes like the .com bubble. During Covid, most companies over hired and since things still aren't back to pre covid era just yet, companies are doing tech layoffs, not only for people in tech, almost every role saw a cut. The hiring freezes did not help either, some companies have been on a freeze for more than a year with ver...
Canada Student Visa | What I showed as proof of home ties for study permit
มุมมอง 3.1Kปีที่แล้ว
Proof of home ties is probably one of the biggest things you have to show and here is what I showed as proof of home ties for study permit. While we were processing for my sister, the consultant was very adamant on showing a strong tie back to Nigeria as Canada does not joke with this for study permit application. Things like land documents and properties, having family back home is what you ca...
From Solutions Architect to Technical Product Manager: How I made the switch

So I move around a lot in my career and here is how I transitioned to technical product manager. I've sort of always been in the technical field, I won't lie in the past 8 years I've switched roles 6 times and every single role has led up my transition to technical product manager. I transitioned about a year ago so it's still fresh but I shared a bit of details on how I prepared and how I tran...
I spent $6000, and I got a breast reduction
มุมมอง 1.7Kปีที่แล้ว
I know you can tell that something is different! That's because I got a breast reduction done early last year 2022. Doing this breast reduction was such a game changer for me and the only regret I have is why it took me this long to get my breast reduction done. I've been suffering from back pain for the longest time because of the heaviness of my breasts and the reduction took out over 3kg fro...
Study Permit Application | Student visa documents for Canada
มุมมอง 6Kปีที่แล้ว
Gathering the documents needed for your study permit application is very important, the student visa documents for Canada is very extensive. The more documents you have to support your application for a student visa in Canada, the higher your chances of getting that study permit application approved. For my sister, we had to show over 20 documents for this student visa application; it was quite...
Becoming a Canadian Citizen - I got my Canadian passport

I would say now that I have this Canadian passport, it was all worth it. The process of becoming a Canadian citizen wasn't super str...
International Students - Best in Demand Program Canada
มุมมอง 7Kปีที่แล้ว
As an international student, the one thing you should do yourself is choose the best in demand program Canada. The program you choose to study in a Canadian college matters a lot, it's all dependent on what your goals are after school plus the demand and supply for the program you're about to complete. I personally don't think there is a good or bad program to study in Canada, you just have to ...

How To Maximize Your Taxes: Canada Tax Return 2023
มุมมอง 1.6Kปีที่แล้ว
Tax season just finished and my Canada tax return for 2022 in 2023 was $7,000. I've filed my taxes five times since I moved to Canada. Each year I've used this same trick and it has never failed me for the refund/return, I call it the 10/10 rule. It's really the barest minimum I do when it comes to taxes and 2023 wasn't any different for me. Are there any other legal tax tips and tricks you're ...

Rent And/Or Buy a House in Canada | Why I Still Live In a Rented Condo
มุมมอง 2K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Still on the real estate talk, should you rent and/or buy a house in Canada? This is a very "it depends" kinda question. Real estate doesn't have just one rule book, you have to do what fits your situation the best. In my case, my initial intention for the property was to live in, but reality dawned on me that it might be cheaper to rent it out than to live in it even though I bought it. So sho...

I applied for vista visa last year November ..no feedback yet from the agent ,can I apply for student visa whiles waiting for my visits visa?
Please sir help me fill out the application 🙏
Which province are you in?
Thank you for this amazing video...please i have a question and i need guidance...i am saving for my Canadia study process (self sponsor) and because Naira keeps loosing value every single day,i have been buying USD and saving in my domiciliary account so that the value stays intact...when the funds are sufficient in USD,can i use the domiciliary account to show proof of funds and probably also show my naira account statements to show inflow and outflow?please i need your thoughts on this because i cant save in naira,it looses value everyday
Which virtual number do you recommend for one to use in the UK after soft landing in Canada?
Congrats to your sister dear. But i believe you guys paid way too much for this though. We have some good visa agents in Nigeria who attend many conferencies and seminars and trainings to be quite knowledgable on this and they dont charge anythign close to this. I know a couple who have successfully obtained study permits for those in Nigeria not to speak of visitor's visa. Well, i guess you all had the funds to spare. Glad it ended in praise.
How many times can I reassess my tax
Girl where are you? Lol
Just found this video. I feel like I've been doing it wrong. I will apply all that you mentioned and i do hope it's a game changer for me
Hi blessing why are you not making videos again
How did you do it
I saw another video where it said you live in a rented 1 bedroom 1 bath and own a 2 bed 2 bath you rent out. However, this is a 2 bedroom condo. Is this the one you bought during Covid.
That room has absolutely terrible acoustics.
Nice apartment Simple Lifestyle
Blessing you keep changing here you're like 16yrs
Level is like band in health
I love your spirit very hard working lady, Blessing you are a potential wife ❤❤

Awesome video my sister, I'm just getting to know that I have a TH-camr sister 😊. Awesome content!
Hi Blessing If some proof of funds documents can't fit in the designated section, is it acceptable to include them under the client information section?
How about when you're not a PR yet?
I think the world has generally been very unpredictable in the last 10 years. So for me, I have some plans but i'm flexible.
I hate that 5 years from now question! How am I supposed to know what I want in 5 years LOL?

9 countries is massive.... well done
it was a lot I must say
Nigerian passport is very weak. Kenyan passport is more than 44 countries visa free: These countries include Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Benin, Botswana, British Virgin Islands, Burundi, Cayman Islands, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Cook Islands, Cuba, Dominica, Ethiopia, Fiji, Ghana, Grenada, Haiti, Hong Kong, Jamaica, Kiribati, Lesotho, Malawi, Malaysia, Mauritius, Micronesia, Montserrat, Mozambique, Namibia, Niue, Philippines, Rwanda, Singapore, South Africa, South Sudan, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Tanzania, Gambia, Trinidad and Tobago, Uganda, Vanuatu, Zambia, and Zimbabwe .
That's the bad side of holding Nigerian P trust people are been jailed in different part of the world just because they hold Nigerian p,
Yh traveling to the US, I was asked more questions by the immigration officer when I had my Nigerian passport compared to my Canadian one
That's many things need to be change about Nigeria honestly!

A product manager that writes code??? Yes, they are LUDICROUS. I'm a QA Engineer; a lot of interviews that I have been on also want us to test and to also dig into the code...when in the past, if we tested something and found a bug, we told the devs to fix it. They want some weird unicorns right now.
Weird unicorn is the right word for it!

Nothing is cheap dear upcoming techies

Immediately they sell course and a job I don’t look back …… share resources and honest hardwork
Some are definitely valuable and I have paid for them before, I'm just weary of false advertising. Promising someone a job in 30days if they take your course is questionable.
Even more layoffs are scheduled to come we seen nothing yet if you think 0809 was bad wait till we get through the first couple of months of this year is going to accelerate with the layoffs
Yet people are guaranteeing jobs in 30days. I don’t get it
So would u recommend becoming a project manager?
I’m not in the best position to make recommendations
Because i am currently in the express entry pool since October of 2023, but the Money in my account is not really up to the required amount (i.e 9m ) but I've less than that in my account, please what do i do

Long time...where have you been?😊
long time no see, I've been good. You ?
