Always watching from Pennsylvania, USA 🇺🇸. Sipping my coffee while enjoying "Unpopular Opinion" definitely makes my Saturday morning better. I really appreciate how well the background colors and dress code are coordinated in this episode. It creates such a cohesive and professional look for the podcast. Great attention to detail, Claire-I love your outfit; it’s my kind of colors. I agree with most of today's points, especially about wedding decor. It's astonishing how much people spend on it when they don't have much to their names. Save that money and embrace simplicity. I also agree with Claire that the idea some people are built for business and others are not is a myth! People can develop those skills with the right mindset and effort. While some may have natural inclinations, many can acquire business skills through learning and experience. Flexibility and a willingness to grow are crucial for success in various fields. We missed you, Prim, but overall, the show was beautiful again today. I love it here!

Looking stunning as always, ladies ❤ Society is gradually changing. it's crazy how much we have normalized things we use to frown on. My input is, "Let's not normalize overnight success and wealth." Before now, there was no way you could bring home a new car or purchase a luxurious item when you are under your parents' roof and care. But now the parent will dance and give thanks to God without enquiring the source , hence the rise in immorality and bad behaviour 😢

[@estherauma9353]

This right here!!! Why is our generation so much in a hurry to get "rich" at any cost!!!

[@anonnona6433]

Facts. A teenage girl, with the latest smart phone and data that never runs out. The parents never ask. Such a scam. 😮

Every woman wants/should want kids - scam!

Girl yes!

It’s the grace of God that keeps teachers talking all day without drinking a drop of water. Claire I get you

[@anonnona6433]

Normalising sexualising children in the name of content creation. Oops. Some minors are literally being exploited in the name of content creation. There is age appropriate content but that does not sell because folks want scandalous content. The fact that these minors have 1000s of followers who happily consume the content is more alarming. Such a scam.😮

[@Callmehildaglosh]

Gosh the cost of decor is insane especially at weddings! Let’s not forget all the other exaggerated prices around weddings; all of a sudden, getting nails done costs 5 times more for a bride than other people, the same nails using the same technique. Something has to be done about this

[@theunpopularopinionug]

Oh my God! YESSSSS! Talk about the exaggeration!!!!!

[@Flourish_today]

Are there situations where the bride can get her nails done at a regular nail shop and not mention that she is the bride? Would that bring the cost down?

[@SA-vw4ny]

​@@Flourish_todayAbsolutely you can walk and ask for the service without mentioning that you are the bride. You will get charged at normal prices.

Wedding meetings, such a scam… how u plan to spend wat u don’t have , then u start begging Pple who u will then show off to … weird🙄

[@katek4724]

Claire you are right, we all have to cultivate our business side. And the wedding decor omg! This has been an issue for me for a while, like why? It all gets thrown away!!

Another scam is that you have to contribute to every conversation. No please some of us perfer to listen and learn. Not every joke is funny😮

[@AdutDiing-bl6ql]

People have normalised Cutting people off without even trying to talk things out.

[@tfa4782]

I think i also do this but its coz i think ppl know what they are doing

[@anonnona6433]

@@AdutDiing-bl6ql Because " self love and self care " have become a buzz word 😆 Conflict resolution and disagreements should be part of normal human interactions but oops folks are " prioritising" their mental health and would rather not talk things through 😂🤭

[@baineaneurin5723]

I have enjoyed Kemi today🤓🤓, the scams topic bring out your body gestures; the Kemi eyes😳🙄(sorry don't see better emojis), hand gestures; it shows the the authenticity in your opinion. I reduce on wearing shorts 🤣🤣🤣

[@miriamkhlea5375]

Claire today I disagree with you, some people are truly not build for employment and some are not build for business, right from who you are as a person. Your goals, your strengths and weaknesses all determine where you lie even when you sharpen your skills, you will realise how much you are forcing life when you decide to venture into who you are not. What we can all do is invest our savings to either secure them or grow them safely business itself hoooo, not all of us can handle that daily pressure no no! I know people who can never be employed because they don't want to live under another person's rules and restrictions and as someone who is not for business, I'd rather deal with that than possible daily losses hooo I'd die of hypertension in a week

[@beyourownbossbabe]

Thanks for your this Miriam… however, I think you miss understood me. I know people are more disposed for employment/business than others… however, the economy that we live in has forced all of into the corner of business because there are no jobs to go around. How does one save when they don’t have an income in the first place? You and I speak from a point of privilege. I can never be employed but that’s a decision I make with A LOT of privilege because I am so good at business. But what advice do you have for someone who has looked for a job for 3 years but NOTHING? Do they starve because they aren’t good at business? Of course not! You tell them to suck it up and LEARN how to do business… because for as much as some people are naturally good at business, it can also be a learned skill...

[@sandrahkyomuhendo8035]

People not drawing boundaries. Especially men who are touchy. Keep your hands to yourself please.

[@kisakye296]

We habe alot of things to do in kampala. Do a religious tour(check out those old churches, bahai, the OK mosque) have a day fishing in Ggaba, go to some factories and learn what they do URI is open for you to learn how some things are produced, do a tour (walk around Kampala and check out the monuments, a night drive is also ideal as you just talk about life, rock climbing is there at Clark international university, the mountain climbers also have a thing in Muyenga, go to like a warehouse and see how things are done, go to your friends workplace if it’s ok and see how things are done, you could learn a thing, your friends business and see how she or he spends the day, too much to do!

[@nakibonekacibella69]

People who always think that "pretty girls" have a line of men and they are not loyal. Some people even go ahead to call such girls prostitutes and all sorts of names...... let's normalize looking good and taking care of ourselves.

[@NaturalBeauty_101]

Agreed, also being surprised when you tell a man you are single and they give you a weird look like 😮 "why are you single?" "...well I haven't met the right person" 😅

[@Callmehildaglosh]

First of all, your dresses are gorgeous! And so are the two of you

[@AdutDiing-bl6ql]

Not everyone is meant for business and NOT everyone can be employed.think of it this way someone is extremely good at their job and they earn x amount allows wic them to pay their bills and other needs 😢then they quit this job to start up a business which happens to fail because entrepreneurship is just not their thing...also if we all own businesses who will work for who???

[@DignaK]

This thing of not knowing our neighbors bothers me. Where I stay, there are over 5 families and we all have babies around the same age, while I think we should have an association, people prefer keeping to themselves. I let it be.

[@ronniedenis3844]

Ugandans are growing more self centred now days...its hard making friends of recent compared to like 20yrs ago

[@anonnona6433]

The more money people get, the more self sufficient they feel and the more they depend on things rather than people. Also, I feel like in our neighbourhoods we generally don't trust each other enough to form good communal relationships 😮

[@missfabidia]

The toxicity on Twitter is insane...

[@matildaathieno1713]
