Absolutely correct...you explained it more thoroughly. Thank you..
Honestly, I wouldn't want to be restricted and not have tenure hence the definite need for the doctorate.

Yes...all I've ever taught (until thus past year) has been inner-city kids.
Soooo many challenges...but these kids need so much more than just a "formal" education. You actually become their parent...and although I'm not proud to say-I had a few times where I lost my "Jesus"...(and had to come back and humbly apologize).
However, show those kids (no matter what age/grade) some true, sincere, tough and real love...and boy I tell you this: they are forever loyal and loving to you.
The paperwork, teaching to a "test" and restrictions/lack of creativity and major behavioral problems is what has really dampened teaching in today's society...(at least from a public-school view).
But hey, if you've got that passion, then I guess, nothing will stop you.


I pmed you about a fact finding mission in AL.

Has anyone invested in stocks and shares in the US? I’ll like to know your experience or how your shares is performing.

Anyone following the Brett Kavanaugh saga? grin grin

Republicans went from being confident of his confirmation to being angry and upset about their own process.


Democrats finally learning to play the Republican's games.

KARMA!!! grin grin grin

Those hypocrites won't even hold a hearing from Obama's conservative nominee.

Lindsey Graham crying like someone stole his cereal. grin

Unfortunately, I still feel like they will end up forcing him through and then the supreme Court will be a joke. It's a sign when the ABA AND Alma mater write a letter asking you not to confirm a judge!

All the time. I've had hits and misses. Currently I'm taking a huge risk on HMNY and SHLD. Made a ton off Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the past and some solar penny stocks. I like penny stocks because they are high reward but also VERY high risk.

Can you share some tips on how to get started?
There are some who would like to get started but fear and not knowing what the first steps should be have hindered.

Harmony owns the struggling and almost defunct movie pass. Sears holdings just became penny stock territory after decades as the Amazon of its day. Solar stock in small solar companies. Google "penny stocks"

Not something a layman should be getting into if you have no background in the field. You need an investment manager. If you insist though, use Robinhood. No fees for transactions and good for laymen. Be prepared to do a lot of research and only invest money you can afford to lose.

Also, if you are risk adverse, buy well known established stocks and hold on to them for the long term. They are more expensive but stable.

Though with no background, you really should go with an investment firm/company even if it's as basic as Charles Schwab, Ally, E-Trade etc.

I can chime in a little on this. There is no direct answer to your question. In general, there will be ups and downs in sticks/mutual funds. It all depends on what kind of portfolio one has. I have had more ups than downs. It's always good to hold your funds for the long term. Also, you can either go through a brokerage firm or open an pereonal brokerage account with the likes of Ameritrade, fidelity, etc. and do the transactions on your own. I have both.

Negro bye, according to these posts you are a fraud so I’m not the only who has accused you .


Your really not providing much detail as far the actual immigration process. But whatever , it’s your personal choice. The process is not as simple as filling out a form. Nigerians are not straight forward people. When I read other immigration stories from other nationalities , they detail it which turn educate people, they just don’t make blanket statements and expect people to run with it.
...

You admitted accusing someone of fraud when no conviction had been made could land you in trouble according to the laws of the land you are claiming to love.
You arrogate to yourself the power to adjudicate immigration issues when obviously you are not an immigration official speak so ill about your characters.
What do you need those details info for if you are not out for some mischiefs.
You need to grow up and respect other people positions and opinions especially when they dont affect you directly in any way.

I think starting out with penny stocks wouldn't be a bad idea especially for those looking to such line of investments but generally speaking,market crash due to many factors either natural or man made are real and when that happens,those portfolios existence are threatened and the devastation could be massive.
I would rather invest more in stuffs that are within my control.

Please when I did I ever claim to love America? Like and love are two different things. You like looking for trouble, I have left it alone so you leave it alone and continue to wallow in ignorance. TAKE YOUR OWN ADVICE AND MIND YOUR BUSINESS BECAUSE YOU WERE NOT PART OF THIS CONVERSATION.

That you still quoted and raised your attack level simply means you haven't left it alone.if pointing out your excesses now means looking for trouble,then I gladly accept the challenge.
Also,I accept the ignorance tag so far it's coming from you...the custodian of knowledge who also doubles as the sole administrator of United states and the fact that you see every comment as an attack on you means you have a lot of issues going on in your life you need to deal with.

Countries deal with issues that affect their relationships not who rules over such countries.
Nigeria being a shithole only exist in the mind of failures.
Besides,are you proposing or expecting Atiku presidency ??.
