Hacuttie:
Homeless with a functional business website for sale of airey cigar brand. Homeless and you were interviewed by British tabloid before BBN.

You may not be rich but this story of homeless isn't for someone like you. Nonetheless, Mike is extraordinarily disciplined.

grin grin exactly what I tried typing...do u know that sometimes I do reason that only Old Men(40+) are active on NairaLand because their way of understanding is way below par,,am sorry to sound this way because I love them all as well .but they aren't trendy,they always criticize at any slightest Chance and jumps into conclusion without any knowledge of what d message says....If u think am lying,Just copy this particular thread and post on Twitter or Instagram u will see a different understanding from d comments because they are trendy,,they will easily catchthe "Homeless Athlete" perspective,, but old men here only saw "homeless"..smh

if you know what it's to live on the street in a foreign land.you will never wish it even for your enemy.if they ask you to sleep in the very cold of minus 2 degrees.you will know life in Nigeria is better than such.Go all over some cities in Europe and America and ask those people, they will tell you living in a house in nigeria is better than such life.we need to thank God for what we have.

Meaning he never had a country to represent not that he never had a house or shelter.
Re: Mike Edwards: I Was A Homeless Athlete Fighting To Represent Nigeria Last Year by phemmy008(m): 7:22am On Nov 01, 2019
I think what he meant by "homeless athelete" here is that he is not representing any country yet in sport and not the usual homeless.... How can a homeless be CEO?

There is no success story that sweet pass "grass to grace", that's the reason everybody wants to tap from the positive emotion vibes that comes from it.
That's why you hear stories like this

"homeless" not it's literal meaning but homeless because he could not represent Britain nor Nigeria in sport.
Re: Mike Edwards: I Was A Homeless Athlete Fighting To Represent Nigeria Last Year by joe4christ(m): 8:59am On Nov 01, 2019
When he said he was homeless, it might not be literal!
But i thought it was said this guy is a billionaire business man?
Re: Mike Edwards: I Was A Homeless Athlete Fighting To Represent Nigeria Last Year by Prechy08(m): 9:02am On Nov 01, 2019
Oh my God, Homeless in the context he used it was because at that time he could not represent US nor Nigeria in sport.

He has a big roof over his head but in sport he could not call anywhere his home.

ThinkWISELY:
Is it just me or are most people on this forum becoming kinda dumber on purpose,you have succeeded in turning Nairaland - a once EMERGING NIGERIAN'S QUORA HUB into a dump site with dumb super low IQ bitter nitwits,from the writers to the contributors.



HOMELESS NEVER LITERALLY MEANT HE DOESN'T HAVE A HOME !,whats happening to most of your constructive reasoning,even if you don't understand his phrase must you add undiluted bitterness while reacting,these people are humans too.

To the very few still making the Forum reasonable thumbs up!

I think Seun should allow people vote for best answers/comments, maybe some pple will employ their brains b4 typing.. Even quality of FP contents are not what it used to be

Posing for a photograph for very tall people is very difficult unless if u have taken enough time to learn it. Sometime you will take a good pose only for the picture to come out quite different from what u intended it to.

See that Mike's pose.

Chaii...I can relate. In the same boat
