Basic math puts total expenditure at $1500.

You don't even know how much you spent. 😂😂😂
You spent the change Naija guys give to runs girls for a night and you are making noise.

Raumdeuter, who could buy you a yacht, does not make noise.

Poor man mentality 😂
Save a little change, then for the sake of photos blow it up 🤣🤣

Posting an invoice that we cannot verify if it belongs to you 😂
My $3000 included air flight.

I totally get it. Because if you speak plainly, then it’s “bragging”. But at the same time, they’ll be the first to go there. Mtchew 🙄


💯!
Cococandy, this is not bragging .
Some time he checked into a mental hospital when raumdeuter told him. how much he paid for his car.

ijebosb:
Or why not all 3 just get a 1 bedroom and some sleep on the floor and a couch? They could save more.
Or just 1 room and all most sleep on the floor? I'm sure that's much cheaper
Or why not just get beds in a hostel? Much more savings there.
Or maybe just a friend's couch. They can save all the money then.

I hope you see what I am getting at.
Let everyone choose what fits their needs and circumstances.

And I'm glad you're worried about my finances.
But when you're paying with Naira(through you Nigerian Bank account) there is no repayment period.
And I'm not opposed to putting the hotel on my CC, but the savings of the black market rate is better than the rewards I get from my card.

btw it was closer to 9k
Those tables at Zaza, Boho, Mr. Panthers, and Library, food at places like Slow, Kaly and Z Kitchen, 15 and 20 year Whiskey, renting a Prado to be available 24/7 jsut in case I want brakfeast outside the hotel at 7 or want to stay out till 4am, and renting small speedboats (Bemeruca would see everywhere, never said he got on one) to make it to the Beach Houses ain't cheap.

Oh yeah that didn't include the direct flight from NY.
So let's call it 11,000 dollars I blew.

There are some things you can post ,say you are paying mortgage and the costs are driving you nuts without bragging and we shall understand.There are other things one says that are just nonsense . Like dwelling on who is in America.
That's high school stuff.

Who’s the couch surfer?
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 12:03pm On May 30
The couch surfer is the one who thinks we are impressed by the kind of live he lives so he takes every opportunity to regale us with his exploits.
Unfortunately he reveals more he intends .
He is the one who said he slept on the couch.



cococandy:
Whoever is accusing others of couch surfing might need to see a hotel bill to disabuse themselves of the notion that the accused is actually couch surfing?

Don’t start nothing and there will be nothing.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 11:15am On May 30
Who needs to see a hotel bill in the first case.


cococandy:
The same school of thought that tells you guys immigrants in America don’t have a thousand dollars to their name right? 🤣

Feel free to believe what you like of course, but you have to wonder in your heart why you want to believe the worst. Does it make you feel better in some way? If yes, why?

That being said, even if it were true, credit is not free. Some people have $800 credit limit and others have $200,000 credit limit. Your access to credit depends on your worth according to the bank’s standards.

Your job stability, income, property values and financial history all play into how much a bank approves you for-If they even you approve at all. So why would having access to credit be a thing to laugh about?

If you think it’s easy, why don’t you walk into any American bank and just randomly ask them to approve you for thousands of dollars in credit.

The things you guys think are insults never make sense to me.

Assistant AG Harneet Dillon wants this judge recused from an election case. She attended a victory party for Fani Willis ,the disgraced Fulton District Attorney.
Lest we forget Fani Willis hirrd her married lover to jail Trump paying him $250 an hour . They indicted 17 people hoping the cases would run for several years.
The judge is overseeing the Justice Department's efforts to compel Georgia to produce federal election records under the Civil Rights Act of 1960 and the National Voter Registration Act as part of its probe into state maintenance of its voter rolls ahead of the November midterms.

SCOTT BESSENT DROPS BOMB ON NGOS FUNDING ANTIFA — IRS WILL HOLD THEM LIABLE FOR VIOLENCE

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just put radical nonprofits and their big-money donors on notice.

"The IRS is now giving guidance on the Form 990, which nonprofits have to file," Bessent said. "We are going to demand that nonprofits know their grant recipients."

He continued: "So if a grant recipient is violent, if they are suppressing people's rights, then YOU are responsible for that."

On the ongoing probe into Antifa funding: "We made substantial progress. And I think in the weeks and months ahead, we are going to have a lot to report."

George Soros and the network of NGOs bankrolling riots and chaos just got a very clear message. The days of funneling money to violent groups with zero accountability are over.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico:
Height of stupidity blowing $3000 dollars to flex ,then spending the next 5 months to repay the credit.

Our DSA is negotiated by the internal auditors and finance guys who like travelling to duty stations to " scrutinize every receipt " at $190 .
3 guys will get a posh 3-4 bedroom Airbnb at $150 a night and by the end of the week they each have extra $500 at least not counting their salary.



ijebosb:
Couch surfing indeed.
This was for 7 days of my trip.

Now, since you care,
I have a boy (practically family) with an amazing fully furnished guest house on Banana.
I own 2 penthouses in Lekki Phase 1 which I just finished.
My girl has a really nice apartment with security.
My dad has a house in Lagos.

Yet I chose to stay at the Intercontinental. Why, because I wanted to because I like my own space and wanted to be in that area. And guess what, I can.

Put the receipt through AI and see what you get.

Anthony Edwards Pays $12,500 Monthly In Child Support While Making $3.3 Million A Month: She Makes $1,016 And Is Still In Court

Anthony Edwards earns $3,364,911 per month, and Alexandria Desroches earns $1,016 per month.

He is paying her $12,500 monthly in child support, and she is still in court.

Let's do the maths that nobody in the child support conversation wants to do publicly.

$12,500 per month is $150,000 per year, going directly to this woman for one child, that is not a small number, and not an absent father's contribution; that is more than most Americans earn in an entire year

For context, $12,500 a month is approximately 12 times her monthly income; she would need to work an entire year to match what he sends in one month for their child.

And she is in court trying to get more.

At what point does child support become less about the child and more about bridging the income gap between two adults who made a mutual decision to have a child together?

A child's needs are real, all of it costs money, and both parents are responsible for contributing proportionally to their means; that principle is not in dispute.

But $12,500 a month funds significantly more than a child's basic needs; it funds a lifestyle, and the lifestyle being funded belongs to the custodial parent, not exclusively to the child, because money does not arrive in a separate account accessible only for child-specific expenditures.

The child support system was designed to protect children, but in practice, it often functions as an income transfer between adults, with the child as the legal mechanism.


Me being a typical African man would directly pay the rent, school fees , transport and shopping if the child wasn't planned for.
It's a hard swallow if she has a guy who spends the whole day in the house on playstation on my dime.

I am virulently opposed to trans.
The article was about putting a trans in a female prison.

Accepting the insanity that a man with a pe.nis can be a woman.
That a man can have a uterus
That gender is assigned at birth.
That a woman doesn't need to have a vagina to be one
That a surgical operation can create a vagina.

All those court verdicts will be reversed. Truth is mightier than the sword.
As of now Appeals Courts infested with democrats are sitting on the cases .
You can bet all thise cases ,the Alvin Bragg,Fani Willis,E Jean Carroll will be thrown out by the Supreme Court.You can take that to the bank. .Partisan Appeals court are happy to let the farcical rulings remain in force.


bayelsaowei:
You’re correct. I have detested Trump from time immemorial because he has always been an immoral human being.

I didn’t have to wait for him to be convicted to detest him. I don’t support men who disrespect women, or men who are sex predators. So from the past and into the future I can’t associate myself with someone like Trump.

The courts only did a good job by showing the world the vile human being that he is.

IDF fights by the rules? The prisoners that were arrested without any trial or day in court? People in detention for many years for no reason and just released?

The international medics and journalists killed? Is that by the rules.

Just for your information, IDF soldiers have not been punished for the prisoner rape.....the rapes were so common it was believed it was supported by the higher ups.
