Hey guys! I'm sorry this is unrelated, but kindly help a brother out.

Anybody here knows which network is better to use along AIT road, Alagbado, Lagos? I'm trying to choose between Swift or Spectranet.
The Smile modem I bought has been completely useless as they barely have signal there.

Anticipating your responses. Thanks.

One way successful people achieve material success is by writing “how-to” books for less successful people to buy… grin

Many lazy, poor, dumb people born in slums have won multimillion dollar lotteries.

And lotteries are pure luck.


Give ONE, just ONE example of someone born lazy and dumb in a slum in a a poor country who won $1m lottery. Search with Google and everything, YOU CAN'T. And even if hypothetically they did win, the dumb and lazy aspect will guarantee they'd lose it in no time.

There's lots of people who won, and I'm quite sure you Googled it. Winning lotteries is absolute luck, with the odds in the tens and hundreds of millions.


Whether they lose it is another matter, that's not what we're talking about.

The fact is, there's no formula for success; billions of smart people work hard everyday, but only a very small percentage will succeed.

And if you're hitching your own wealth aspirations on such nonsensical books that tell you how to become rich, then you're dumber than a pile of rocks: the authors use your gullibility to make their own money.

Keep buying those books!

We are saying almost same thing but not quite. The big difference is why you are wrong about the $1m - to win it you have to first be in a position to PLAY. A lazy and dumb person in a slum in a a poor country will NEVER be in a position to enter a million dollar lottery. That's why such a winner CANNOT exist.
So, like I said at the begining, your luck theory will be right ONLY if luck includes circumstances of birth and upbringing and the type of brain and personality you were given. If luck does not include those things then you'd be wrong.

You're reaching, in a completely fallacious way.

All it takes to enter a loterry is to buy a single ticket for peanuts.

Lottery is gambling, which is predicated on nothing else besides luck or chance. It does not require that you be anything more than a ticket holder.

There's no way personality or intelligence plays any role in the deterministic outcome of pure chance.

Luck is about being at the right place and at the right time by random chance.

If you still insist personality or brains are the ingredients, does it mean you're not wealthy because you yourself lack both?

First of all such lotteries are not in such countries. Secondly $1, the minimum to play, is not available to such a person, it is not peanuts to him.
If you remove circumstances of birth and such, then wealth is NOT due to luck. Just as your chances of dying in a plane crash is not luck - it is zero if u never fly. So also your choices affect how wealthy you become, not just luck.
