God blessing in disguise!

Please tell me, how is this a blessing in disguise? Will the USD1million be tax free? Will this money make up for the youthful years he lost? Everything isnt about money....

See this one they shout Baa God ooo..

Are you ready to go to 39years imprisonment and come back to collect 200million naira?
i don't think he is prepared to go to prison for 1 year for that, he only can see the money part of it.

For 39 years by the time he comes out we will all be living in the moon and flying on Rockets grin. Believe me after been to prison i do not wish to go back there again for all the tea in china embarassed

I disagree with you sir. 40years?? If Bill Gates had spent 40 years in jail, and after his release got paid 1million dollars, would he be the billionaire that he is?? They already killed the man's destiny, God save us from such things. Amen!!

Tedassie:

Thank you...my thoughts exactly

Imagine being locked up since he was a teenager
yes he could have, but if you have been in an American prison you will know why he would settle for 1 million. He is a broken man who never thought he would ever be free. The idea of prison in the white man's country is to break one's spirit turn one into a helpless emotional wreak. And make one Appreciate a tiny bit of freedom. Esspecially if he was Awaiting execution.

They virtually wasted his youth! The most virile phase of is life was wasted serving jail time, and now $1m to soothe his hurt, Rubbish! But, anyways, he should take the dough.

1million dollar is too small...after 40yrs?wtf....assuming he was jailed at 18yrs...plus 40yrs...that's 58yrs...am sure this man would have make more than this even if as a factory worker for 40yrs...his benefits and 401k would have be a bomb now.the annoying thing is that he will still pay tax from the $1m.may God console him.He has the right to killed whoever that has sent him to jail on false pretence now.

1million dollars can't buy back the wasted years, but you also have to think of the probability (considering it's the US); he might have been killed long ago if he had been a freeman on the street.
