Please stop using billions, just say you know of a guy who is a millionaire. The real fact is if he is a billionaire and he get sick for losing 50k, then he has never really been in business, because he would be long dead before becoming the billionaire you are claiming.

No, I mean billions. Billions in Naira. 1b naira is $2.5m. Guy is a dollar millionaire but he is incapable of spending or risking his own money. Money can only come in but it can't go out. I think it is a curse.

kolaaderin:


Worth billions in a public bus are you OK. some people just keep risking their life for nothing. this is 2018 oo we are not in the 70s ooo, why not in the bank. This kind of people are there own bankers you would be shocked to know that the money could be over 50% of her worth home and abroad, with the look of the money she could be a trader going to the market for her merchandise.

Some people are misers. I know a guy who has billions but if he loses 50k he would get sick. Also some people don't trust banks.

Ok, but who the shit is Sowere

SUPERPACK:
why will somebody have such amount of money in her bag, what if the robbed the bus, or the frsc guys did nt come around on time. thats risky men.

Risky 4 u. Maybe she is worth billions.

We know what they WOULD do with it if no one was watching!

Yemi alade, wende coal, m.i, flavour etc are underated artistes in Nigeria. They do great songs but we take their songs as ordinary....compare to Tiwa Babee that hide under other good celebs to get her fame...Tiwa savage is overrated, she must always colabo to have a hit song from top artiste and that is not a too talented artiste.. ...Kudos to them all..

U dey craze. Who has a better VOICE than Tiwa?

It isn't fake

It could also have been staged as a "joke". Only 0.1% chance it is real.

It isn't fake

Begs the question, how do u know? Over the centuries, it could have been faked at any point as countless people have overwhelming motive to do so.

Iamdmentor1:


Someone here said that he didn't order the massacre. That Mj. Taiwo who undertook it without his consent was severely punished. Is it true?

He's lying. Everybody knows Murtala gave the order, even foreign govts. He was in Asaba and it was IMPOSSIBLE it could happen without his explicit command.
Murtala ordered the killings and nobody was ever punished.

IAmSkinny:

I know of his bitterness towards Gowon. Gowon was his superior in the army so he had to stand down and watch Gowon take over power. I am also aware of his bloodless coup; Gowon was out of the country when it happened.
What I really don't get is the whole conspiracy surrounding Kaduna. From my findings, he fought for the Biafran course, but was eventually executed by Ojukwu for treason. Kaduna was brave and daring! Ironsi is the Jonathan of that era if you ask me.
There's no excuse for the atrocities committed by Murtala in Asaba. If you justify the killings, you might as well justify Hitler's crimes against the Jews. Will you still make excuses for him in the role he played in the 1966 anti Igbo progrom?
This whole episode reminds me of Josef Stalin. Hahaha, he is being revered by many people in Russia as a hero.

OJUKWU DID NOT HAVE ANY HAND IN NZEOGWU'S DEATH.
Nzeogwu was fond of going on near suicide missions onto the war front. In one such he was killed by Nig troops with Ojukwu's brother.

aybabz101:


The second in command in d person of Maj Taiwo gave d order in d absence of Gen. Murtala. Maj Taiwo was severely punished after d war.

Stop lying. Murtala ordered the killings and nobody was ever punished.

aybabz101:


"Federal troops revealed machine guns,
and orders were given, reportedly by Second-in-
Command, Maj. Ibrahim Taiwo , to open fire. It is
estimated that more than 700 men and boys were
killed, some as young as 12 years old, in addition to
many more killed in the preceding days."

What happened in Asaba dat very day was a great tragedy in d history of 9ja and this gies to show what tribal sentiments can lead to.

But lets get our facts right b4 we started criticizing. The second in command in d person of Maj Taiwo gave d order in d absence of Gen. Murtala. Maj Taiwo was severely punished after d war.

Stop lying. Everybody knows Murtala gave the order, even foreign govts. He was in Asaba and it was IMPOSSIBLE it could happen without his explicit command.

Good Friday: Christians COMMEMORATE the crucifixion. Nobody said Lord Jesus was actually crucified on a Friday in March or April.

"Mr. Muhammed was a strikingly different figure from the no-nonsense general many Nigerians believed him to be.

He was not only an arrogant mass murderer, but just as corrupt as those he went after.

And, although brilliant and daring, Mr. Muhammed was an erratic and impetuous ethnic chauvinist who lacked the unifying talent of his predecessor, Yakubu Gowon."

trying so hard to sound intelligent. I feel your pain but I don't pity you.






Next is insult

Really, you imbeciles have mastered the art of sounding official with even the most outrageous of claims. Typical of atheism


Not believing in god is not a creed. It is the lack of belief in god. science do not dwell on belief or disbelief but on facts and science do not deny what it doesn't have evidence for. In fact a good scientist must not be close minded or shut down on contrary view or illogical position.


Atheism is religion wannabe. There is no God is your creed.
you don't have any evidence that there is no God.

Atheism believe there is no God.


There are 13 countries around the world where atheism arepunishable by death or imprisonment, and even more for people who leave their religion (100% of these are Muslim countries) and become atheists. There has been a long history of violence against atheists in nearly all major world religions. The overwhelming majority of people in islamic and african countries believe that atheism is a mental disorder, and even if there are no outright criminalizations, criticism of the dominant religion is frowned upon in public. The majority of American citizens would not support an open atheist as president, according to population polls. So yes, atheists are persecuted, all over the world.

---

They are certainly persecuted in Nigeria, where 12 Nigerian states practice institutionalised Shariah law, which proscribes the Death Sentence for atheists and apostates.


Oxymoron and strawman argument. Atheism is not a system or structure of beliefs, but the lack of belief in a god. The only "blind faith" here is the belief in god, religion and holy scripture without any scientific evidence or support. Atheism is skeptical by default
it takes blind faith to believe there is no creator even when science proves other wise.


still trying hard to rob shoulders with religion. If atheism is just lack of belief why are you crying?
It is not a must to support an atheist. At least Americans want to protect their country from people who see humans as nothing more than an intelligent beast.
Atheism is blind faith because your claim is baseless and unscientific.


Atheist states are one of the most intolerant. For example in a country that has high numbers of atheists they would throw anyone who preaches about God into jail, fight both politically and economically those who believe in God.
Atheists only cry when they are in minority because they do not have enough power to exercise their tyranny.
Atheists love to criticize others but will hate and curse anyone who dares to criticize atheism.
@ bold madness, when has atheism become sceptical, I guess that was a mistake but go and look it up in a dictionary or Google it. Sceptics are those who do not have a stand, they cannot say if there is God or not.
You cannot disbelief when you are not sure.


The Church plays a fundamental social role in bringing together communities and breaking down ordinary barriers. The concept of an "atheist church" has been around for hundreds of years, and they were active during the French revolution. The idea is to benefit from the social cohesion of bringing local communities together, without the added baggage of belief in a god, religious brainwashing sessions, etc. Think of it like a more active version of a town hall. It's certainly not "feeding a supressed need for god", moreso filling in the void in social connections that's arisen as religiously-based community gatherings are rendered obsolete you wrote so much only to agree with me at the end.
You are not religious but you do some of the things religious people do how does that sound to you.
Just Atheism is religion wannabe. You criticise religion publicly but Envy them secretly.


Atheist church means the church is for atheists. The question is,
Why did atheist call it a church why not something else? I guess to spite the Christians and yet you claim persecution.
If atheism just means lack of belief in God, why trying to gather atheist to form a gathering? Or is lack of belief a belief system?
I don't believe in Allah why will I gather fellow christistians together and call it christian mosque just to have the same social feelings?

Why call it a church why not a mosque or a shrine? That means there is something about Christianity that everybody want to associate with even atheists.

Nailed it exactly. Nothing to add.

THE LEGACY OF THE ASABA MASACRE

On the fateful day, the people trooped out, dressed in their traditional white Asaba attire, chanting “One Nigeria,” waving the Nigerian flag and pledging their loyalty to Nigeria. At the town square, they were addressed by Major Ibrahim Taiwo, who tongue-lashed them and accused the people of Asaba of hiding Biafran soldiers and sympathising with the Biafran soldiers. He threatened to kill all of them. Soldiers mounted machine guns and automatic rifles around the square facing them. It looked like a joke to many of those gathered there.

The Nigerian soldiers asked that the crowd march around the town to ask all those who were inside to come out, so that anybody not at the square would be taken as a dissident. The men and boys were separated from the 
women. The men and boys were marched out. A few metres away, those who had returned from the North and therefore understood Hausa heard a soldier tell other soldiers to take them in little groups of 10 for elimination. Dr Uraih recalled that his elder brother resisted joining the first group of 10 people. He was shot in the back and killed. Some people wanted to flee but were gunned down. And so the guns began to boom as the men and boys were mowed down.

That those who murdered defenceless civilians in Asaba have never been reprimanded in life or in death, neither has Nigerian government acknowledged that its troops massacred its citizens without provocation is a dent on Nigeria’s image.

Ten Millionires Who Committed Suicide

by Julian Crowley

We live in a society filled with dreams and aspirations of wealth, a society that likes to believe that money will bring with it happiness and success. 
The following men were all successful businessmen who committed suicide.
The millions in their bank accounts did nothing to ease their suffering…

10. Jonathan Wraith

Thirty-five-year-old Jonathan Wraith — a young British millionaire by virtue of selling his and his father’s portable cabin business for £30 million ($46 million) — was by all accounts a happy and well-adjusted young man. However, in 2009 he picked up his shotgun and shot himself, leaving no suicide note. No clear reason could be found for Wraith’s action, but there has been some speculation that he was extremely worried about his father David’s recent stroke. It seems that this may have proven too much for the young man to take.

9. Eli M. Black

Eli M. Black, whose death was immortalized on screen in the Coen Brothers comedy The Hudsucker Proxy, was a Jewish-American businessman and millionaire controller of the United Brands Company. An astute and forward thinking capitalist, Black’s career included stints with Lehman Brothers and then the American Seal-Kap Company, which he renamed AMK. The early ’70s saw AMK merge with United Fruit Company. With that, Black’s fate was sealed. His downfall was rooted in the discovery of his $2.5 million bribe offered to the President of Honduras, to reduce export taxes on bananas. Taking matters into his own hands before the scandal broke, Black climbed the 44 floors of his office building and leapt out onto crowded Park Avenue to the horror of onlookers below.

8. Huibert Boumeester

At 49, father-of-two Huibert Boumeester took his own life after becoming seriously depressed in the fallout of the £50 billion ($77 billion) takeover of ABN Amro by the Royal Bank of Scotland. The Dutch millionaire banker’s body was discovered in a woodland area several miles away from his home in London. A suicide note to his wife Frederique that was found on his body read that he could not “go on.” The coroner confirmed that Mr. Boumeester had ended his life while depressed, explaining: “He drove to a very isolated location in woodland, sat down and used the shotgun to end his own life.”

7. Christopher Foster

In August 2008, Christopher Foster, a 50-year-old British businessman, murdered his wife and daughter before burning down his house and killing himself. The businessman shot his wife Jillian and daughter Kirstie, prior to succumbing to smoke inhalation. Foster, wealthy by virtue of his company’s work creating oil rig insulation technology, was nevertheless beset by financial concerns. Despite being a millionaire residing in a five-bedroom country mansion, he was living beyond his means, with debts of £4 million ($6.2 million). It seems that, tragically, these financial worries may well have pushed him over the edge.

6. John Lawrenson

John Lawrenson was a successful businessman who lived in a £1.2 million ($1.8 million) mansion (the Old Rectory, above). He was healthy and seemingly happy, and had earned the right to enjoy the profits from a lucrative life in the publishing world. This all would have been fine, except for one thing: his beloved wife Caroline was dying of cancer. The devoted couple, married for 47 years, poisoned themselves with a substance bought via mail order from Mexico. A suicide note found near their bodies confirms the truth: Mr. Lawrenson could not bear the thought of living alone and decided to take the matter into his own hands.

5. Wayne Pai

Wayne Pai was a successful Taiwanese businessman, and founder and chairman of the securities broker the Polaris Group. In the wake of rumors of insider trading, the nevertheless well respected Pai was found dead in July 2008. His wife and members of Polaris’ staff flew to the outlying island of Penghu to assist police with their inquiries. Pai’s suicide came at a time when allegations were being made that a former president of National Chiao Tung University had been receiving regular payments from Polaris. Pai’s body was found floating in waters surrounding the outlying island.

4. Paul Castle

Paul Castle — a self-styled businessman and property tycoon who had met the Queen of England and played polo with Prince Charles — killed himself in 2010. The 54-year-old threw himself in front of a London Underground train, leaving no chance of survival. The businessman, described as a “workaholic,” had seen several property deals go awry over the last year of his life and had also lost capital in a gas and oil surveying company. Castle, who suffered from chronic heart problems and tumors, had been married three times and was due to be wedded for a fourth time, to his girlfriend Natalie Theo.

3. Peter Smedley

Peter Smedley was an enormously successful millionaire hotelier and businessman with a tinned food empire that provided him with a sizable income. He and his wife Christine — who had been married for 33 years — enjoyed a luxurious lifestyle befitting of their riches. However, Mr. Smedley was also an extremely ill man, suffering from motor neurone disease. He ended his life by his own volition, at an assisted dying organization, the Dignitas clinic, in Switzerland. In a further twist to the story, Mr. Smedley’s death was filmed by the BBC, with segments televised as part of documentary about assisted suicides.

2. Howard Worthington

In an alarming case of destructive emotion, self-proclaimed “lord of the manor” millionaire Howard Worthington shot himself with one of his prized shotguns just moments after shooting his lover Julie Rees. The 52-year-old English former businessman, who made his fortune in the steel industry, had been ordered to stay away from his £1.3 million ($2 million) country home after threatening her with a gun a few weeks prior. While Rees recovered, Worthington did not. Verdict: suicide.

1. ReiJane Huai

Long Island resident and computer software high flyer ReiJane Huai killed himself with a single shot in September 2011. The former president and CEO of FalconStor, a data storage company, had resigned suddenly in 2010 following a lawsuit filed against him. The millionaire committed suicide on the front lawn of the $2.5 million home he shared with his wife, ShuWen. The Taiwanese-born Huai — who had traveled to the USA to study in 1984 — had several adult children living in the US and was described as a “visionary and leader” by a FalconStor spokesman

German tycoon Adolf Merckle commits suicide

Merckle, who was the world’s 94th-richest person in 2008 according to Forbes magazine, spent his life building a business conglomerate with about 100,000 employees.

The empire was poised to come crashing down after his family made wrong-way bets on skyrocketing Volkswagen shares.

The family has been under pressure to sell some assets or seek bridging loans and has been in talks with banks for weeks.

“The desperate situation of his companies caused by the financial crisis, the uncertainties of the last few weeks and his powerlessness to act, have broken the passionate family entrepreneur and he took his own life,” a family statement said.

The 74-year-old industrialist died when a train struck him late on Monday, said prosecutors in the southern German town of Ulm, near Merckle’s home.

Luxury is an addictive drug

The frugal blogger Mr. Money Mustache tells us that luxury is weakness. Luxury is an addictive drug. Until we understand this, it has the power to ruin our lives.

I remember driving my brand new luxury sports car and noticing that my identity was becoming tied up with the car. I realized that this super-expensive car would wear out and then I would need to buy another one. To keep my identity, I would need to keep generating a lot of money. It was like having a drug habit. The car didn't make me feel that good, but the idea of not having the car felt lame. So I realized that I would need to keep having that fix to feel normal.

This process of getting the drug to get back to normal is a common experience for drug addicts. Also, tolerance to the drug increases with abuse over time. An amount of the drug that was once satisfying starts to not have the desired effect. We find that we need more and more of the substance or experience to get back to normal.

The problem is that, as the U2 lyric goes, "You can never get enough of what you don't really need." Once you have the Porsche Cayenne Turbo, you start wishing for a Bentley Bentayga. The more luxury you have, the more luxury you need, but luxury never really satisfies the itch that it promises to scratch.

Luxury makes us feel successful, that we are winning at the game of life, that we are not only surviving, but thriving. Like an opioid in our brains, luxury locks into our survival receptors. The irony is that purchasing luxury, and being dependent on it for our sense of self and wellbeing, leads to us depleting the very resources that we actually need for survival.

It turns out that having the discipline to live frugally, to invest rather than spend, to mend and make do, and to be able to live for longer and longer periods of time without having to work, are true measures of wealth. Deeply enjoying whatever it is you're experiencing right now is the ultimate wealth.

The people who are on the nine-to-five treadmill, working to pay for luxury cars to drive for two hours per day to and from work, are really on a luxury treadmill. These people are addicted to luxury.
-------------------------------------

Being wealthy is a full-time job

There's a foolish impression that once you have a lot of money, you can kick back and relax. To some degree this is true. You can have more choice, and you can buffer situations in your life to some degree. However, once you have assets you have to manage them, protect them, and maintain them. You need to worry about being sued, so you need insurance. You need to hire people to do stuff for you, and you need to manage them. Delegation is really hard.

If you're not careful, you will make your life more complex, with more things, and more activities. Perhaps you will use spending money and buying things as a cheap way of avoiding self-awareness. Perhaps you will become obsessed with hoarding your money and maximizing its growth.

Some people become very suspicious of other people, not trusting that they really have friends, thinking that others are trying to get at their wealth. Even with the best intentions, others will seek funding and support from you. They want you to invest in their businesses and projects. They want to borrow money. All of this is a massive strain on your ability to be aware of your boundaries, and avoid being co-dependent or enabling.

It's really challenging being wealthy. Approach with caution.
-----------------------------

Follow the path of least resustance

I remember spending all day sitting next to one of the founders of the company. He was a grey-haired, old-timer of Sun Microsystems, yet a trail-blazer in the new realm of synthesizing computer logic in chips. He was the VP of Engineering at this little start-up. He’s now a mega-millionaire, perhaps even a billionaire.

We worked effortlessly, seemingly endlessly, late into the night. I showed him test-cases that my random 3D triangle generator had produced, which broke his graphics engine, making it behave differently from our model. He fixed the bugs, while I watched him code. I learned so much from him about being a principled engineer, about how to create quality code. I was so excited about what we were doing that I couldn’t stop working.

I won’t go into the details here, but I continued to follow this flow of excitement and enthusiasm, and it led me to becoming an employee of that start-up, making a ton of money, and gaining masses of experience.

I didn’t apply this principle in all areas of my life back then, so I only experienced the benefits of it in a small domain: my career. Later on, I also become fearful of losing what I had, and started to make choices that were not in alignment with the path of least resistance. These choices led to much less beneficial outcomes.

I have been learning more each day how to notice when I am experiencing resistance, where the path of least resistance is, and then flowing with that. I am learning to keep on pivoting, no matter how much success I have achieved, into the next path of least resistance.

Some people say, “follow your bliss.” I always found this statement irritating. A statement that resonates much more strongly for me is, “trust your good feelings.” Trust your excitement, your enthusiasm, your happiness, your playfulness, and your curiosity. All of these feelings are associated with flow, with the flow of your energy. When you engage with them, everything in your life will flow more easily.

When you perseverate on the thoughts that lead to unpleasant feelings, and you take actions in an attempt to stop those unpleasant feelings, it generally leads to less adaptive outcomes. Unpleasant feelings include fear, anger, loneliness, and jealousy. Bring yourself back to asking “what would I like?” and then notice where your pleasant, flowing feelings lead you. Trust those feelings.

Apple CEO Tim Cook: 'Don't work for money ... you will never be happy'

Apple CEO Tim Cook has some advice for college students obsessed only with pursuing a career for the paycheck: Think different.

"My advice to all of you is, don't work for money — it will wear out fast, or you'll never make enough and you will never be happy, one or the other," Cook says.

"You have to find the intersection of doing something you're passionate about and at the same time something that is in the service of other people," he says.

"I would argue that, if you don't find that intersection, you're not going to be very happy in life."

Fegelfire:







This above me, folks, is anti-intellectual tribalism in action. Want to know why?

It's sardonic gossip, mockery - between two parties who completely agree and have no opposition with one another. People do this in social circles in order to silence criticism; it gives the illusion that a debate has taken place and a conclusion has been arrived at, when really all that's happened is back and forth choir preaching to emulate a feeling of group-think with no opposing views given.

Muslim youth love to do this and are a perfect example. There are youtube channels ran by hardcore muslims where they sit around in groups and banter with one another about an atheist they've heard of, or a woman who doesn't wear the veil, laughing mockingly and playing to other group-think exploits, nitpicking on their appearance or personality or the fact that they might have misquoted a verse or something, without actually engaging them in debate or attacking their arguments or point of view head on, creating an illusion of intellectual authority when in reality there is none. Anti-intellectual Tribalism, or "bitchy banter" as I like to call it.


God doesn't exist and atheism is not like a religion. If you want atheist rebuttals to a query, ask a goddamned atheist - don't coagulate into your little religious tribal flock.

U r a funny guy. U talk as if this is a closed forum. Infact some atheists like hopefullandlord, sonoflucifer, seun, were mentioned by name, they all stayed mum.
Also, the argument is not wether God exists. The argument is wether belief in God is beneficial to man.
