Day169:
These cars, in these present times are just obscene! I wonder how many Lagosians can afford cars like these if they have earned their wealth legitimately. Just imagine that the Lexus LFA costs close to £300,000. That's about 100 million naira. ..smh!

Please keep your jealousy to yourself and don't sour this thread. Do you know how many filthy rich legitimate men there are in Nigeria?!!

If I have 20 billion as my savings, what kind of car should I buy?

Poor man.

rockiedink:


It's implied bruv. If I can afford N100m to buy the car in the first place, N10-20m to fly in a specialist and ship necessary parts is chicken feed mehn!

The point I am trying to understand is not whether these guys have the money to fix their cars - that is granted - my point is to focus on the rationality of doing so.

Your estimate tells me that it doesn't make sense. Let's assume they would need to fix their cars - from full scale service to the simplest electrical fixes - at the cost of 10 million each time. Then by the 10th time, they would have spent 100 million and would have been better off buying a new car in the first place. This tells me that this behavior cannot be considered rational.

Except of course, there are specialist that can do these things effectively in Nigeria. Which brings me back to my original question - who are these specialist and where are they located.

Having legitimate contract from Government is different from stealing Government money.

Not aliens ok. And if they could get it. I too can and will ok. Them no carry too head come this world oo u hia!

Bros I understand you.

But first you should realise that these billionaires don't do these things because "they should" but because "THEY CAN"!!!

We've seen pictures of a 'richie' who use a gold-plated flush bowl in his loo... does it make sense? NO! Can he do it? YES!

The average billionaire has multiple houses...even in the same locality. Does he need them? NO! Can he buy them? YES!

The big boy wey get one of the biggest telcos in Naija plus oil company join...you know how many houses he get for Banana Island? And VI? Many of them he no dey live inside and he no rent am out; I even heard that one day he was being driven along the road somewhere in VI and he saw a house he liked and he called his acquisitions team and said "Buy that house for me." when acquisitions started their findings to purchase the house, lo and behold, na him gan gan get house! Tell me, did he need the house? NO! Could he buy the house? YES! Times over!

So my dear brother, there's a level these people get to where they do things not because they should do them, but because they can do them. Rationality is alien to them because the 'substance' is there!

I know they do things because they can!

But again - you will have to understand my question properly. This is not an issue of who can or not.

Would you rather fix your car 10 times at the rate of 10 million naira each or would you simply buy a new one for 100 million?

I would suppose that even people who CAN would rather buy a new one for 100 million. It's just common sense.

Now, my question comes back to this - assuming a Nigerian who buys a buggati veryron know he would spend up to 20 million fixing the car each time it has an issue, and there is a chance that he would have to fix the car at least 10 times - if he knows this information already, would he rather buy a new car than fix an existing one? That's the crux of my question - Are the owners likely to buy a new car? Are they going to keep spending money fixing an exisiting car knowing fully well that they can simply buy a new one? Or are they most likely to simply dump the car in their garage and conclude that it is not worth fixing?

I am already assuming that those who buy these car have a lot of resources to throw around.

were you the one that over- inflated it?

calm down..take a chill pill..dats not the ish now..i also did it back in the days in uni..its just style for some people why some have their reasons..so until u dont go to dem..

redcliff:
I dont get why people who are not in the direct office of the presidency or special forces in the armed forces would be covering their plate numbers for reasons that totally eludes me. I hope this issue is looked into just like the way the issue of tinted glasses was looked into. If this is a form of "big-boyism", then there is something wrong with ordinary individuals who cover their plate numbers for no reason.

There's the answer to your question...given by you!

Actually... @rockiedink has said it all... Since the money is there, they'll see no worry spending all that just for repair even if its worth would get a new car.

I watched a BILLIONAIRES' documentary on youtube, it was called LAVISH SPENDING!

Back in the day, Arthur Eze sold off his oil investments for a profit of 200 million USD.
He supported Tony Nwoye guber campaign with 3 billion naira.

He doesn't need to steal govt money.
