This is something I used to ask myself until I realised that we live in a low-trust society.
It's often easier to scam Westerners precisely because they come from high-trust societies, and we mistake that trust for stupidity.
Take the US, for example. You can print your own check, deposit a check by simply taking a picture with your banking app, and even start using some of the money before the check has fully cleared. You don't even have to visit a bank.
Compare that with most parts of Africa, where something as simple as forgetting your banking app password can mean physically visiting a bank branch with all your identification documents.
We have become so accustomed to suspicion and distrust that we mistake our cunningness for intelligence and other people's trust for foolishness.
We think we are smarter because we are harder to fool, without realising that we have built societies where nobody trusts anybody.
this makes perfect sense
Jean failed on Peter for one biological reason: she assumed his brain controls his body.
Hulk and Punisher have standard mammalian neural architecture. Frank is driven by singular trauma, and Banner is driven by fractured rage. Both have a centralized steering wheel in the prefrontal cortex, Jean just reached in and took the keys.
Peter’s biology doesn't work like a human's. The spider bite mutated his nervous system into a decentralized arachnid network where motor functions operate completely detached from conscious thought.
We saw the proof in No Way Home: Strange knocked Peter’s entire conscious soul into the Astral Plane, and his empty physical body was still effortlessly dodging a Sorcerer Supreme on pure autonomic reflex.
Jean was successfully hijacking Peter’s thoughts, but his limbs don’t wait for cognitive permission when a threat is present. She took over the driver's seat of a vehicle operating entirely on autopilot.

“I don’t like giving advice I like for people to make their own decisions but I can make suggestions because it is a very tough decision especially in the Nigeria we are in today. The economy is not doing so well, there’s no job security, the cost of living is killing the living. It takes a lot of reason”

Before you die please live, when I say live I mean live life. Do all the worldly things, have sex, laugh, travel, attend a concert, smoke weed if you have to, buy that expensive thing you’ve always wanted to buy, club at least one time before you die. You’re so invested in the future that u forget it’s ROI is death.. Fuck all that “make your parents proud” and fucking live. Nobody’s gon starve themselves or lose sleep when you’re dead, not even your husband, wife, children, parents or closest friends.

Texted her on LinkedIn and told her I’ll like to join her team as I see she’s the head of settlement in her organization
She gave me her number to call her and we spoke on phone and asked why I wanted to join and after the conversation she said she understands my view
Asked for my cv weeks later and the rest is history
This has always been my template and how I’ve always taught anyone I know to look for jobs
Add them up; text them; out of 10, only 2 might respond and one of those 2 might be the one who will change your life
In between the recruitment process; I still got a rejection mail from another organization by way who told me my interview presentation was solid and gave me hope but it’s a numbers game and you have to be MENTALLY TOUGH to not allow yourself break
You don’t win if you don’t try
I wish everyone the best
LinkedIn is massive if you know how to use it
