Sewing a new wedding gown for lot more money....

Am I the person not reasoning properly?
I think you are "the person not reasoning properly, or you at least want us to not reason properly, because I can't see where you are telling us the wedding dress she wants to sew for herself cost a "lot more money" than the ₦50, 000 you offered her.

That said, and even if it does cost a lot more money, she might be sewing her wedding dress to advertise her skills and make a lot more money, which would make a lot of sense to an entrepreneurially minded future husband that you might be.

Aiyede had gone to introduce himself as a newly appointed lecturer at Newgate University.
Why? Was she his only student, or was he going to visit the home of all his students to introduce himself too?

I'm sorry he died but I can't help thinking he went looking for his own death.

Well, let's give it a little more time. Who knows for sure whether or not some policy goals aren't being achieved?

If the sanctions aren't working, then that might be the reason why Trump is turning to military force. There must be some reason Russia & China aren't responding too strongly to the USA attack on Venezuela. Iran is being targeted or harassed...again.
Russia has far too much on its plate with Ukraine I'd bet, and it favours China that dump is paving the way for them to go do to Taiwan what dump is doing to others, since it would be odd for dump to tell China not to do what he's doing.

But I do wonder what he'd do if military force doesn't work. Throw the kitchen sink too at all the 90+ countries he tarriffed?

I'm giving more time. Not to dump though, but to those 90+ countries. I'm specifically waiting to see S. Korea spend tax payers money making dump great again. It's looking more like they had a deal until they now haven't.

What if she then decides to claim half of your assets in case things don't workout between the two of you?
Couples who want to remain married don't start off with "in case things don't workout", because just thinking "in case things don't workout" will make you do what will make things not work out.

Tariffs are bad for the world in general, but governments use it and other tactics like ECONOMIC SANCTIONS as instruments of coercion or to get some kind of advantage.
Don't you think you should tell dump this?

It's after all not as if his tariffs are coercing Starmer and Carney or getting advantage over China.

gozmok1:
I am only correcting the impression of some people's claim which says People don't open on Mondays because they sit at home on that day in solidarity with someone. That's a fat lie. They were forced against their will to sit at home. I said they were threatened to do so against their will. You don't force people into a movement against their will and tag it solidarity.
Then Soludo should recognise this and provide security so shop owners can safely open their shops on Monday instead of asking shop owners to go risk their lives.

That’s exactly my point: consequences may not come immediately or locally, but history shows they do come, legally, socially, or through loss of legacy. That’s why I said it’s only a matter of time.
You are a wise and patient person. Not everyone is like you. When I grow up I pray I reason like you do.

I'm saying this today because Diezani Alison-Madueke is currently being caught up with in court, and because I want you to know what I think of you based on your comment above.

Christianity Etc › Sarah Mullally Confirmed As Archbishop Of Canterbury by budaatum(op): 7:28pm On Jan 28
Bishop Sarah Mullally DBE has today (Wednesday 28 January) become the 106th Archbishop of Canterbury, at her Confirmation of Election at St Paul’s Cathedral. She is the first woman to hold the office in its 1,400-year history.

https://www.archbishopofcanterbury.org/news/bishop-sarah-mullally-be-confirmed-archbishop-canterbury

Henry Ndukuba, the archbishop of the Church of Nigeria, said it was insensitive “to the conviction of the majority of Anglicans who are unable to embrace female headship in the episcopate”.

Reducing the value of the dollar IS the point of monetization and the attendant inflation.

The debtor nation will pay back with LESS VALUABLE dollars and yes the population will suffer.
As someone once said, 'it's the economy stup¹d'.

And I can't wait for dump to inflict that pain.

While US debt load is worrying, bear in mind that ALMOST ALL developed countries are in a debt crisis.
To different extents, and therefore consequences. You wouldn't after all compare Nigeria's indebtedness to that of Japan, or would you?

But I guess you also don't know USA and Japan already tried to reduce debt with their money printer and it created inflation, which is why you'd suggest the money printer be USA's solution to debt without understanding it would reduce the value of the dollar and shoot the NYSE to like 100,000.

Good luck to you, I say.

I read this and I'm scratching my head folks.
Of course you would scratch your head, ono. The thought of a Nazi German changing so much to accept his gay daughter for who she is should be enough to make you scratch your head.

'I’ll never forget him embracing me and loving me for who I am. His story is a true testament that people can change and love indeed can win.'

Neumann added before stating her grandfather was one of her 'best friends' who accepted her as a gay woman.

Raumdeuter will soon tell us more zoo stories.
These lot know nothing about US debt and US bonds. Their focus is on the price of eggs and the stock market.

Imagine calling the leader of a 40 trillion debt nation a lion, and those lending to it sheep who can do nothing.

It's why my laughter is in Swahili.

The US government carries a debt load built in a zero-rate world.

With rates higher, every increase in long-term yields feeds directly into interest costs.

That is why the bond market has become the fastest way to discipline policy. Stocks can fall without breaking anything. Bonds cannot.

The sheeps know a real Lion and not one playing dress up
No raum, I do not see how UK is shivering when dump speaks. We actually laugh at dump down here, and if our leaders shiver at him we'd elect new leaders.

Or how do you think S. Koreans would react when their government decides to go invest $350bn in USA? And how do you think Canadians would react when USA fighter jets fly into their airspace?

In fact, how would you react if a country you belong to goes to spend your tax money in USA to make America great? Would you just shiver?

The sheep does not need to stand still to be eaten, only that the sheep does not have the power to stop the lion

If the goat becomes angry and scratches its hoofs on the ground, he still cannot bite the owner
I hope you know this is what supposed lion Russia thought about supposed sheep Ukraine, and is what lion China will think when it invades sheep Taiwan.

It's a pity though, that you think might should be right, but I'm delighted most don't reason like you do, especially not the sheep and the many other animals who can gang up and defeat your lion because they know they are next once it's done with the sheep.

Why does the feelings of all these country matter to an American who wants to be great?
They too should go ahead and be Great without America

Okay Greenland Canada Venezuela Japan will not vote for Trump or Americans greatness but how is that our business?

A lion does not concern himself with the opinion of sheeps
Not only those countries, but the supposed sheep in USA too who are opposed to what the lion does and who will be concerned when the sheep don't vote for the lion.

But that's beside the point. Its funny you think lion America can survive all by itself when all the foreign sheep stand against it.

I go with EVIDENCE and always EXPECT and prepare for worst outcomes, that's how I've lived my life. I don't do emotionalism and moralism because morals are dictated by biology. I deal with THE FACTS of human nature, such as....humans are inherently RACIST, RELIGIONIST, CLASSIST and whatever else...it's a survival mechanism, all the non-Igbo on this board campaigning against RACISM in the USA have no love for the Igbo in Nigeria, I don't bemoan it, it's natural.

I also expected that Donald Trump would lose the Nov 2024 Election and be sitting in prison by now. My comments on Nairaland are there, I always said that the last election would be my test of whether the USA continues as a prosperous and free Republic or not, just as the 2015 Elections dictated the economic crash in Nigeria. I always wrote that Nov 2024 is actually Mar 2015 in the USA. My comments are there.

Good Luck to Nigeria.
