Business / Re: Naira Declines To N1,510, N1,466.31 At Parallel, Official Markets by Alusiizizi(m): 3:33pm On May 14

Yes. If I make withdrawals from my bank's ATM it is for free. That is how it is all over the world.
Going by your reasoning, POS agents can access naira during naira scarcity but banks doesn't. And you can't figure out why.

Meanwhile, what other infrastructure do you need to run a cashless policy than POS? Even armed robbers and police have POS. Every other countries uses POS, some even embedded it with other phones apps. For instance, China uses WeChat and in Europe, NFC is active for most bank apps.

I have visited few countries and never has any other country trade their local currency yet you all wonder why people are trading dollars and naira is losing value. If within Nigeria, the value of my 1000 naira is 900 naira and CBN doesn't see it as a problem, then my friend, Nigeria economy is in a long run. Brace up my friend.



I don't engage in circular arguments so I will end with this note. If you are not interested in paying POS charges then withdraw directly from your bank. The fact that people do patronize POS operators should tell you that they are offering a service to the market. Surely you are not asking that they do this for free.

You're telling me that the real value of my 1000 naira within Nigeria is 900 naira and that is good for the economy.
The reason why people are trading naira is because their is corruption for it. There are empty ATMs everywhere. Banks don't even pretend anymore because they make money by giving cash to POS operators.
It's ok if you're making an honest living off POS services, however, don't defend how rotten the banking system has become.
POS is meant for cashless society not cash-full society.



You can always go and withdraw money from the bank for free wink The only reason why these POS operators thrive is because they provide a valuable service to the market.

Addition:
By the way, cashless policy is not much more than empty narrative, especially when the infrastructure to support such a policy doesn't exist. I don't know where you were during the period of that New Naira notes fiasco but if you were in Nigeria and had to suffer frequent failed e-transactions, have your bank debit you and being forced to wait in long queues at the bank just to resolve the issue then it should be obvious to you that the infrastructure to support a cashless Nigeria does not exist.

I did c++ as a course in my undergrad level for three years from year two to year four.

Then in my year five ,it became an option but I didn't bother taking the course .

Unilag then

Sounds to me like you didn't get into professional coding. Also, from what I understand, Computer Science, as a course in Nigeria, is disgraceful to put it mildly, with the typical CS graduate not knowing even the basics of programming(I don't know how it was in UNILAG though, perhaps your experience was different?)

You have made multiple unsubstantiated claims. First, that the bubble on air has bust, second, that there's new advice to learn as much programming as possible. The question is, new advice from who? You? Show me new advice from a credible source the level of the CEO of a $2 trillion dollar company who gave such advice.

"The bubble is burst". It's a figure of speech that is not to be taken literally. Let me explain. Suppose that I import pencils to Nigeria and I want to sell a lot of them, say, at Alaba market. I can sit in a shop and pray that customers notice me like most people do or I can push fantastic narratives about my pencils on popular media. Let's say that I claim that my pencils are magic pencils that will help people to increase the size of their bank accounts, the more pencils that they purchase. Soon the word is out of these magic pens of mine and all of a sudden, I get tired of selling pens and making lots of money. That massive surge of customers and sales that drive even more customers to seek out my product is called a bubble, which metaphorically, was blown to size by my bogus narrative. Eventually, there will be a growing realization by the market that these pencils are in fact not magical pencils and people have been sold "pig on a pole" and the sales stop, no one is buying my pencils again, in which case the bubble is said to have "burst" as the hype is revealed for what it is and sales collapsed. I hope that I have clarified things a bit for you as "bubble is burst" has nothing to do with air.

"There is new advice", actually I suppose that I could have been a bit more explicit and mentioned that I am the source of that new advice. Based on my experience as a scientist and developer for many years, this is the advice that I give any young man looking to venture into programming, and don't retort that I am not a CEO of some big tech company so my opinion does not count as I have been coding/developing electronic circuits/doing automations for almost 30 years, I've been in those trenches and can discern wisdom from bull-shit in a five second window, things that your CEOs cannot boast of.

What do you think about NVIDIA CEO's statement by the way? He's the CEO of the company making these powerful AI chips so that is credible enough


I hope you are aware that the so-called A.I. bubble is burst. Most of the ridiculous claims about the capability of A.I., specifically the Large Language Models like ChatGPT, that those C.E.Os claimed turned out to be just that, ridiculous.

New advice to prospective tech professionals and developers: Learn as much coding as possible, in fact, instead of going for very high level languages like JavaScript, PHP and such that limits your capability to web-dev, go for lower level languages that stress control and understanding of fundamental concepts of data and structures like C++. If you can master C++ then anything that comes along the way would be a cakewalk. I once claimed on this forum that it took me only 6 hours or so to learn JavaScript and every single response that I get was to dismiss me as a liar. The reason why they didn't believe that anyone could learn such a "difficult" language so quickly is because most of them have no experience with C/C++ and so are not aware of the power that its knowledge gives to a developer.

Leave dollars, why are people trading naira? You pay 1030 naira to POS agent to get 1000 naira. Isn't that itself devaluing naira?
We have elected the most stupid people among us.


I just had to respond to this drivel. The reason why people are trading the Naira is because there is a market for it. POS operators make cash available to the market in exchange for a small commission. Covers the cost of transport to the bank, time spent at the bank, the risk of loosing their money as well as living expense. If you want to give opinion on economic issues then at least take the time to learn basic economics.

WOMEN LIVE FOR THE COMPETITION!!

AH!! I can sense the frenzy this topic is about to emit, i already forsee a lot of females crying on this thread, men calling me a mere woman hater and supposed Redpilled SIMPS telling me that i'm on the black pill as usual grin grin
But lets go anyway, i live for the mixed emotional reactions!

Have you ever asked yourself why women keep forgiving that guy who keeps fvvcking them over again and again and again But then that other guy who would do anything to have her, placing her on multiple pedestals keeps getting ignored
NO! Its not because she's scared of "Starting Over", that is what only idiots believe in, no offense.

The guy she keeps forgiving is obviously the one with the #GoldenPenis, I don't need to stress on who the simp here is right

There is something called the "Trend Factor", its a lot more prominent amongst women than it is amongst men, that is why biittches would risk their lives with Yahoo boys for an iphone!
Its pretty simple to understand; "If You Would Fvvck Another Biittch, It Just Shows How Much Of A Hot Cake You Are Amongst Women, And Then She Would Fight Even Harder To Keep You!"

This topic is trying to give you a scenario where the PRIDE AND MYSTERY components of the #GoldenPenis can be used together at once leaving the POWER for last.

Properties / Re: Would You Buy This Bicycle For N10 Million ? (photo Attached) by Alusiizizi(m): 2:00pm On May 11
elasticlala:
So, I decided to take a walk today to see if I could find a bicycle to help me exercise, as it seems I've started gaining some weight. I came across this bicycle with a price tag of $6,999, which is over ₦10m with the current exchange rate. Just wondering, would anyone buy such a bicycle for over ₦10m if it were in Nigeria (photo attached)... would you?

You would probably want one of these if you are a professional bicycle racer. These bikes are usually designed with composite material for strength and light weight, also, there are probably going to be a lot of build-ins that optimize such physical attributes like center of mass, stability and a few others. Point? Most of these features would probably be impossible to obtain with a bicycle that was made out of iron.
Politics / Re: Technological Advancements Nigeria Was Promised But Yet To Materialize by Alusiizizi(m): 3:35pm On May 10
This is the sort of long-winded shit that really shouldn't be heard outside of a cheap beer-parlor but of course, given that we are in Nigeria, anything goes. It is not that indigenous private individuals, with very strong emphasis on private, cannot produce these items, it's just that it doesn't make any economic sense, given the poor Nigeria infrastructure.

Pencils? Even if someone were to get into the business of manufacturing pencils, the operation will not last more than a year without govt subsidy. Their production cost would be more expensive than the cost of importing from China.

Cars? If I remember correctly, we already have one of those(i.e. Innoson). The sad truth is that the at market cost of a brand new Innoson
vehicle is not much less expensive than the cost of a more popular vehicle like a Toyota, additionally, his main market arena is Nigeria
which severely limits his prospective. In fact, but for massive support from Anambra State govt and to a much lesser degree, the
Federal govt, Innoson Motor Vehicles would have packed up long ago.

Airplanes? Same objection over car manufacturing applies here as well.

If Nigeria really wants indigenous production then they should be encouraging indigenous manufactures with subsidies(like the case of Innoson in Anambra State), infrastructures and such and not with empty beer-parlour rants.

Modified: I read your point and realized that what you wrote and what I wrote are correct.


Number two is incorrect correct. The reason why we see 24 hour days today is because of previous tidal heating that robbed the earth of angular momentum. About 3 billion years ago, 2 billion years after the earth cooled sufficiently enough to allow the genesis of life, the earth was spinning considerably faster, but as it spins, the moon on one side slightly tugs the earths crust towards it, resulting in tidal heating and eventually a spin down of the earth. This process is still happening even today and it is expected that the earths spin will slow down even further far down into the future.

As for me, I chose my meals based on their nutritional values, not based on their tastes or their appearances. So, I so much like Editan and Periwinkles.

Noodles tastes great but I avoid it because it is not just starch but artificial starch. The same applies to Macaroni and Spaghetti. I rather soak Garri that is natural.

How did you eat the Abacha? Your claim is like that of someone who takes Pap without adding Sugar or anything else to the Pap and asserts that Pap is tasteless.

Pray tell, how does processed grain classify as artificial starch?

And history will be very kind to Putin and Russia for going into a sovereign country and attack them because they are stronger than them?? The next country will be any country not aligned with NATO, then what. Putin wants the old soviet Union back to its old glory but those countries have since moved on with the exception of a few.

The sanctions will eventually kick in and will hurt Russia. The Chinese are supporting Russia because they too want to attack Taiwan, a lost province, hence the military bases built up in the China seas. Iran is supporting as well since US is their enemy because of their support for Israel.

Don't play word-games here, sovereignty is but an illusion. If you don't believe me, ask Iraq, Libya and so many other countries that the western powers destroyed simply because they disliked their government, way of life, e.t.c. Hell, a former president of the U.S., George Bush Snr, went into Guatemala, a so-called sovereign country, arrested the president, tried and convicted him in a U.S. court of law and imprisoned him. Basically, a country's sovereignty is directly proportional to how large its guns/nukes are.

It took me 2 years of being the Nigerian Internet most favourite misogynist, breaking the international Redpill and MGTOW community to the point where I was recognized by many American social media based podcasts, getting the attention of American women to the point where my official Facebook page got enough reportings to be as fragile as it is now, and finally, one year off the Internet........ JUST TO GET OVER THAT RAGE.

I am still a Redpiller, I will always be a Redpiller. For crying out loud, I just narrated what I had to pass through to get to this point, there's no going back.

UK has tightened their immigration policies with recent salary threshold of £38700 and care COS restriction.

KPMG has even made it clear they won't hire overseas workers again. That's the resultant effect. The govt wants to push Brits especially people on benefits back to workforce. Apprenticeship especially where there's massive shortages is being supported.

That's the challenge we migrants are facing now and migrants that came especially last year is too high. So demand has significantly increased for declining opportunities (supply).

All these don't mean "apart from electricity, UK is the same as Nigeria". A single night shift here is what professional earn as monthly salary back in Nigeria (with over 50% inflation). Stop capping please.

The Naira will depreciate much further in the near future.
