He bootstrapped Calendly for years before taking on a $350 million investment in 2021 that valued the firm at $3 billion.
Born in Lagos, Nigeria, Awotona immigrated to the United States as a teenager. Before founding Calendly, he had started a few other businesses, including one that sold projectors and another that sold garden tools, that flopped.
travelwaka: I think Tarkwa Bay bay is one of the most underrated beaches in Lagos. Tarkwa bay is located on an island off the Lagos coast, It is an artificial shelter built to protect the Lagos Harbour. Tarkwa bay was built in the sixties and it is one of the most popular destinations for all kinds of water sports.
Because Tarkwa Bay is an Island, it, therefore, cannot be accessed through land, you need a boat to get to Tarkwa bay. This even made it an interesting place to visit. If you are a lover of adventure like me, it's time to check this off your list and if you are scared of water. Oh come on , its time to overcome your fears.
To get to Tarkwa Bay you need to get to one of the three main jetties where you can get a public boat to Tarkwa bay, however if you have the money to get a private boat, then you can also visit any of the private jetties on the Island. the cost of getting a local boat known as Banana boat varies from 1,000 to 3,000 for a return trip, however it could sometimes go up as 4,000
Here are the three main jetties a. Mekwe Jetty Bonny Camp b. Tarzan Jetty c. Marina Jetty / CMS

Qtsnow: Why Investing in Second Citizenship and Real Estate? - By Citizenship Bay
Investing in real estate and second citizenship may seem like two completely different topics. But when it comes to financial strategies, they can actually be complementary and mutually beneficial investments.
Whether you’re looking for a way to diversify your portfolio or just a unique sound investment opportunity, investing in real estate and second citizenship could be the perfect option for you. In this article, we will take a look at both of these investments and how they can help you reach your goals.
A need has been created in recent years for governments to partner with trusted and registered companies in a bid to welcome investments from foreign investors in order to boost the economy of their country. In return for the investments, an investor becomes privileged to citizenship and all rights that come with it. Citizenship Bay is at the forefront of this being of one of the few specialized companies around the world to hold licenses from multiple governments and has worked with thousands of investors for the better part of a decade.
If you're thinking about investing in real estate or obtaining second citizenship, there are a few things you should keep in mind. The following outline of the benefits is shared by Zaid Aldayriyeh, Managing Director at Citizenship Bay.
How Does This work? With a prescribed limit, real estate investments can be made in specific areas of countries like Turkey, Grenada, Dominica, St Lucia, Antigua & Barbuda, Malta, and St Kitts & Nevis. These investments, dependent on the requirement and the rights that each country attaches to such investments, legally confer citizenship status on investors.
Other countries, like Portugal, Greece, Spain, Cyprus & UAE, offer you a temporary or permanent residency known as golden visa as return in investing in real estate within the country.
Investors who choose this opportunity, can enjoy the benefits of visa-free access to over 150 countries including the EU, the UK, and even China and Russia, secure insurance against fiscal, economic, and political changes in the country of origin, and receive better opportunities for tax structuring of tax affairs.
Why real estate? There are many reasons to invest in real estate. Here are some of the most compelling:
Diversification - By investing in real estate, you can diversify your investment portfolio and hedge against market volatility. Income potential - Rental income from properties can provide a passive stream of income, while also appreciation over time can provide significant capital gains. Tax benefits - There are numerous tax benefits associated with owning investment property, including deductions for mortgage interest, property taxes, and more. Leverage - You can use leverage to purchase more property than you could if you were buying outright, which can amplify your returns on investment.
Why a Second Passport? A second passport is becoming an increasingly popular option for many people. There are many reasons to invest in a second passport. It can provide you with greater flexibility when it comes to travel. A second passport can also offer you increased security. Having a second passport can also come in handy if you need to evacuate your home country in an emergency. Enjoy global business opportunities. Access to top-notch healthcare systems and attend schools and universities in Europe and the Caribbean. Pay minimal taxes on capital gains, wealth and inheritance tax, gifts, and net worth tax.
How to Get One? Acquiring a second passport has become relatively easy with renowned citizenship agencies like Citizenship Bay at the helm of affairs. With free consultation opportunities, a client-centric approach, in addition to experienced and dedicated teams at their offices in Dubai and Lagos, all it takes is sending a message to them to get you started. They provide you with all information and answers to questions you may have.
Ordinarily, your first step would be choosing an experienced and government authorized firm. Most CBI government units do not deal with the public directly. Hence, they have provided channels of approved agents who handle the entire process for you.

ubunja: How GFs and wives create opportunities for sex with other men.
Or How women in committed relationships embark on sex sprees lasting days that they trick their men into allowing, blessing or even funding.
ALL THE SEX SHE CAN HANDLE. Some years back, a friend of mine who was a security guard at a Guest Lodge told me a very curious story. A story I'm hearing more and more lately. With minor variations.
My guy told me that a Zimbabwean lady (bear in mind this all took place in South Africa) had met a non-South African guy whose dick she couldn't resist. And so to create time to ride him, the lady orchestrated a plan so crazy only a sex crazy woman could devise: She planned a trip home to Zim that her husband blessed and PAID for, but instead of going to Zim, she camped with her lover at a nearby guest lodge where she was screwed senseless day in day out.
I don't quite remember how that story ended.
But as the years have rolled on, I have heard more and more guys talk about lesser and greater situations than this one as victims, beneficiaries and witnesses.
TRAINING DAY. A woman doesn't wake up with the balls and the expertise to execute deception on such a grand scale. It takes years of practice. She gets her training on lesser deceptions.
She begins as a teen bunking high school to make out and smoke with boys. Then she gets bolder leaving home in uniform but diverting and spending the day getting fvcked by some older guy. While her parents think their daughter is at school. You have seen things go south for these girls come Parents Consultation Days and it comes to light they have absent they can't explain.
After high school and college she gets a job and a man and has to play higher level games to create chances to play around. Games this writeup will touch on.
SCRIPTS AND SCENARIOS. Do you remember the thread HOW WOMEN GOLD DIG YOU where we talked about Fake Trips and Fake Funerals as a way for a woman to gold dig you for money?
Well these Fake Scenarios and Situations have a second job. They are used by women for another purpose that has nothing to with money: SEX SPREES.
WOMEN WITHOUT GAME. Women without game and strategy will always be doing their dirty deeds in a hurry because they don't know how to create time.
They will take a little too long to come back from the store. They will come back from work a little late. With stories of how they met such and such and lost time chatting. But it will All be because they passed by some guy's place for some quick sex. And the moment they get home they rush into the shower complaining about hot the day is outside.
But women who know the game know how to create time and opportunity to partake in fvckery unrushed and savor the moment.
MOST WOMEN WITH NON-BELIEVER HUSBANDS USE SUNDAYS FOR UNHOLY BUSINESS. Because most men don't bother going to church and leave that to their women, it gives women one whole day to mess around ESPECIALLY since most men they mess around with ARE OFF ON SUNDAYS.
It usually plays out something like this: A woman meets a guy that ignites her lust and makes her hormones boil. She's staying with a man. But she needs to create time for the other man to get his dick. So what does she do? Well she has Sunday. A day when she can legitimately dress up without arousing her man's suspicion. No matter how beautiful a woman makes herself on Sunday, her man won't question it. The man is too busy congratulating himself for having chosen such a God-fearing woman to think anything.
So the woman beautifies herself and sets off to church. She'll divert before getting to church and go deliver pussy to the other man. Or she can really go to church but for an hour or two for the alibis and witnesses tomorrow. Then leave and go open legs the whole day.
And if the couple has kids that the woman takes to church every Sunday, what does she do with the kids on that fateful Sunday? Well, her man works Monday to Saturday doesn't he? He leaves early every morning and comes late every evening. The kids miss him. Can he spend the day with the kids? To catch up? Maybe take them to the mall, the park or the zoo. After all the kids are noisy at church and disturb her worshipping. And just like that she has the kids off her hands and she's free to go LovePeddler.
After a day of the other man riding her hard she returns home either in that prayerful mood that tells you "no sex today, I'm too filled with the spirit" or she'll fake diarrhea or vomiting. Anything to make you not touch her.
SHE'S OFF BUT SHE GOES TO WORK. If her man is as serious about church as she is then a woman can't use Sunday as whoring day.
She has to create another day for that.
If she's a working woman then her plan will involve her off days. She'll go to work, look up when her next off day is, then book the other man for that day. Come off day, she'll wake up as usual, dress up and leave for work. Only to divert and deliver pussy to the other man. While hubby thinks wifey is slaving away on a desk she's slaving away on a dick.
This is by far the easiest trick women in South Africa pull.
That evening the woman will complain about how extra hard her day was at work and how she's so exhausted she can't even cook. Let alone nook. Clueless hubby will cook, run her a bath and rock her to sleep. Only if he knew how much the other man rocked her the whole day...
So what are we saying? We are saying not every morning that a woman leaves the house going to work means she's going to work. If you want to see how easy a woman can call in sick, one morning, give her your best performance then say to her, "Call work and tell them you're not feeling well". See how a simple phone call can give her a free day. Then understand how easy it will be for her to leave the house, on the way to work call in sick, then divert and go deliver pussy for some guy.
Now, After succeeding at getting day-long illicit sex this way, the woman will get bolder and orchestrate bigger schemes to get more time. To steal more days. Somewhere along the line she'll feel ready for the challenge of stealing 4 or 5 whole days. To create a whole week for herself and some other guy.
THAT TRIP HOME THAT WAS SHORTER THAN YOU KNOW. A few years back a friend of mine, in a public transport back from work started a conversation with a lady that continued after they both reached the terminus and that ended with them swapping contacts. It was a Friday and apparently the lady was visiting relatives for the weekend and was going to return to the matrimonial home on Monday morning.
Well what do you know, next day Saturday the lady calls my guy and tells him she's coming to his place. She had decided to cut her visit to her relatives short.(I personally doubt her husband got the update and change of plans) Anyways my guy welcomes it (who wouldn't) and Saturday, through Sunday and Monday morning he murders the pussy.
THAT TRIP HOME THAT NEVER HAPPENED. Over the years I've heard variations of this story. I have heard of women accompanied by husbands to terminuses to get transport to the village only to disembark a few streets down the road and head over to some guy's place and remain there for days. I have heard of women in flats pretending to visit family back home only to get in the lift, go down two floors, enter an apartment and camp there for days. Never leaving the room. While her man thinks his woman is miles away home she's actually a few floors down the same building he's in getting dicked daily. I have heard of stories where a GF who was supposed to be back home in another city get spotted at the local tavern by friends of friends of the BFs.
At one time I worked with a guy who was so handsome a lady from another department made him an offer a few men could refuse. She said to him, "Let me visit you for a week. I'll tell my man I'm with my family". I'm guessing her family home was in the city. And I'm also guessing she was going to be coming to work from my work mate's place. My man declined in disgust and told a friend who told a friend who told a friend until a friend told me.
THE JOBLESS MAN IS KING WHEN IT COMES TO ADULTEROUS SEX. Women make so much noise about their hatred and detest for jobless men. How they are broke and whatnot and can't afford to pay for shet. But having acquired the men with money, having secured the dollars, guess what's needed after? Dick. Once a woman is financially secure broke guys can forward CVs for sex with no problems. After the purse is full, the pussy is next.
Although working women sometimes fake trips home, the Fake Trip Home is usually a favorite with Jobless women. They find some guy they like, plan a week with him, Ask for money for transport and groceries to take home to their family, instead divert to the guy's place, use the money for food while getting screwed to death. When that money runs out, and more is needed, the woman calls her man, asks for him to send transport money via Shoprite Money Transfer for her to return to the city from the "village". The man sends the money. The party continues. Two days later the man calls asking where the hell is she since she was sent money to use for transport back to the city. She tells him a family emergency swallowed the transport fare. Can he send again. He asks for a week to raise another transport fare. In reality giving the woman another week with a strange dick. Now, this scenario I have just described happened exactly like this for a friend of a friend. We laughed our heads off when we heard the story.
And so the most cruel thing about these Fake Trips women do for sex is that the men women choose for them are usually jobless guys which forces the women to bring the money, money they usually get from their BFs and husbands. And so the BFs and husbands effectively become the financiers of their women's sex sprees. Even if working, Women will rarely use their own money to screw around. Their reasoning is They (the women) are having to resort to outside dick because their men are failing. The men caused the problem so the men's money will fix the problem.
THE CROSS-COUNTRY SEX SPREE. Back in the day when 2go was all the rage, a friend met with an interesting character on the social network.
It was a girl who was planning to go through several cities meeting up with men. These men were to each transfer transport fare to her which would fund her long trip that would see her enter a city spend a day or two with a man then move on to the next city. Collecting dick from city to city.
My jaw dropped.
This is same friend who sent some girl money from another province to come to him only for the treacherous hoe to divert and deliver pussy to some other guy in his city. And the hoe had the ovaries to try to scam him twice by sending him a message a few days later saying "I'm sorry for what happened the guy I went to played me now I'm stranded can you send money again so I can come to you?"
I told him if he sent the money Im personally murdering him.
Again this is the same guy who met a lady whose husband was overseas who came to his place with a suitcase of clothes intending to camp for a few days for dick. Which my man turned down. Which led to the lady leaving the next morning to find dick elsewhere. And a few months later that lady got in touch to tell him she had contracted HIV/Aids on her sex spree.
THE EMERGENCY FAKE FUNERAL. Let's talk about the Emergency Fake Funeral.
This is by far the most powerful weapon in any woman's arsenal. This will be used when she wants to delay sex, justify some big mistake or disappear for days.
To delay sex things will play out along these lines: You meet a new girl whom you spend heavily on with the promise of good sex soon soon. Maybe on your upcoming birthday, or her own birthday or last day of the month or on some special day eg Easter weekend. Only for her favorite aunt to have a stroke in the morning and die in the afternoon just before D-day. Ruining all the sex plans. Are you really gonna be the insensitive jerk that wants to sleep with a grieving girl? Of course not.
Sex delayed. Her pussy lives another day.
The power of the Emergency Fake Funeral is in that it can be deployed rapidly (as easy as a fake call from her friend whose caller ID has been changed to "Mom" who calls to deliver the bad news) And just like that everything has to be put on hold and she can pack a bag same time and catch a bus.... to her lover.
And funerals are sensitive and taboo which means you can't really double check anything without appearing like some huge insensitive son of a bitch. Furthermore, you'll not hesitate to give her money...
FAKE ILLNESS. Women use Fake Illnesses to justify themselves when caught in a lie (" oh I said that last week? And today I'm saying something different? I'm sorry baby. It must be the stress, remember I told you my cousin Edith has cancer. We grew up together and her sickness is really messing with my head" ).
Does she have a cousin? Yes. Is the cousin sick? No. Because for all the talk of her ailing beloved cousin, your GF has never even one day asked you to accompany her to visit said sick cousin.
QUEENS OF FAKE. Anything can be faked.
Church services, trips, sickness, funerals etc. A Woman will fake anything to create time and opportunity for illicit doings. There'll be uncles you'll be told have been rushed to hospitals; there'll be grannies you'll be told have collapsed and died which she'll need to rush back home for. Conveniently WITHOUT you. Because these will occur during the work week or during times you're really busy with work.
Some of these emergencies will be fake.
And those trips back home will be nothing but Sex Sprees around the city. Nothing but her getting all the sex in the world, with your blessing and your money.
Mercychen: I doubt if anyone here used this device. This is a pager. A historic electronic device used in sending record messages to big boys of yesteryears before the Advent of mobile phones.
I remember back in the day when I was working with a multichoice agency. My boss ( the agent) then was never in the office. So he had a pager which I normally send messages to him, either through a landline or I'll go to their paging office then at Kingsway ikoyi to send him the message using his pager number.
Work then was a lot stressful as this was the only fastest means of communication but then youll have to take the pain to Walk down to the paging office everyday except if you have a landline to call the office and relate your message and details of the receiver to them to send or forget about the message. Most times I don't bother and he'll be like " why didn't you page me yesterday and bla bla"?
Las las, I got tired of the job because of that everday "Waka Waka" and after the people (a neighboring office) I was using their landline started misbehaving and I stopped going there.
Times have really changed. I'm sure no one uses it any longer.
Lol, pagers were widely used by parents to keep in touch with their kids in the U.S. in the 1990s and early 2000s.
Pagers were widespread in the corporate world just as you've stated in Lagos and even PH in the late 1990s to the early 2000s.
Havertz10: Always knew that janemena was a prostitute
No girl exposes her body and twerks for the fun of it
If you are married and your wife likes wearing skimpy clothes that exposes her body especially when she is out alone, it's not fashion or modern, it's a very subtle sign that her eyes are wandering and she is open to extramarital affairs
Any sharp guy knows that you can discern a woman's intentions by the way she presents herself
