Vanity upon Vanity, all is vanity.

While it is good to spend your money the way you like, Ensure you have the needful before you depart this Earth.
Ensure you are Born again.
Ensure you have Genuie relationship with JESUS CHRIST.
Any other thing are non essentials.

No matter who you are or what you have,
If you Depart this without JESUS CHRIST , you Have wasted your Life.

Too small.

I followed most of of the burial process, even when they went to sacrifice white goats to all the deities.

They really sunk money into the burial and mourning period.

I can imagine if it was the Nigerian Government that released such finance details about a national event over a period of time.

We would have all turned finance and costing experts, screaming theft and corruption.

Rather, if it was in your Nigeria, you would have alleged embezzlement and claimed UK would not have spent such amount.

Inferiority complex.

These Brits are like nigerians. They like suffering and smiling. They know that they are the ones financing the lavish and expensive lifestyle of their jobless royals but they don't care. They enjoy it even though the taxes are crippling
