PoliticsRe: 10 Million Youths Trapped In Loan Debt As Govt Borrows More From World Bank by budaatum: 5:43am On Oct 15, 2024
Lawly:
I borrowed N,1800 from this Plenty Cash loan shark to pay back N3,000 to them. When it became due, I defaulted for 3 days and they increased it to N4,200. I paid back N3,500 remaining N700. They still kept increasing the interest for me back to almost 4k again now. I woke up this morning to see this curse after trying to reach my contacts and my contacts denied knowing me.

Besides cursing them back, what should I do to these idiots please 😡

Foreign AffairsRe: Authorities Nab Man With Loaded Gun, Fake Passports Near Trump Event by budaatum: 5:36am On Oct 15, 2024
What do we know about Vem Miller?
By Shayan Sardarizadeh, BBC Verify

Despite Sheriff Bianco’s suggestion that Mr Miller was planning to kill Trump, Mr Miller’s online footprint appears to back up his statements that he actually supports the Republican presidential candidate.

Content that he has posted seems to provide evidence that he is a dedicated right-wing activist.

He has two profiles on Facebook - one for a state election in Nevada in 2022 – as well as an Instagram, a LinkedIn, a Twitter account and an online show on video platform Rumble.

Mr Miller posted footage of himself at the Republican National Convention in July, along with photos with many high-profile Republicans and conservative commentators.

When housing prices are going up , developers are building high end estates, and people continue buying , the economy is on steroids.
Dunderhead.
God forbid that the economy grow and money be made under Biden.

When the Fed cut its policy rates on September 18, it looked at labor market data showing a sudden slowdown of job creation to weak levels, and it looked at decent consumer spending data, so-so income growth, and a very thin and plunging savings rate. And the trends looked lousy.

But starting 11 days after the Fed’s decision, the revisions and new data arrived. And the whole scenario changed.

So at a summary level, economic growth in three of the past four quarters, as revised, was substantially above the 10-year average of about 2.0% GDP growth adjusted for inflation:

Q3 2023: +4.4%
Q4 2023: +3.2%
Q1 2024: +1.6%
Q2 2024: +3.0%

FamilyRe: Rights That We Have That Are Not Written In Una Fake Legal Called Constitution! by budaatum: 11:03pm On Oct 14, 2024
Dtruthspeaker:
1) Right of Employment and Right to Work:
Without any reasonable doubt, it is proven by nature and natural living that every young adult needs to put in his share and contribution of good work in the place/community where he lives.

And in return, the society via the giver of work gives him something good in return which is called wages or pay to the worker.to enable him live and for him to attend to his natural needs and not die of want and starvation.

Thus, The Law moves and places a burden on a young person to find work and to be given work.

And this is why any person who dares to climb the chair of Rulership has an automatic duty to provide work for his unemployed subjects, whether he likes it or not, for The Law already places a burden on the community to give work to the unemployed.
The law does not place any burden on anyone to give you work, and there is no law that states you must be paid enough so you don't starve. Society no send you DT. You must create your own rights!

But that's besides the point. A Constitution is merely a statement of intent. Like the authority saying "we shall not beat you unnecessarily in the street", and "we shall not enter your house and take your food", but their intent does not mean they will.

It is we the people who must then hire lawyers who hopefully know their square roots to fight for those rights for us and on our behalf, and that's how society improves.

Might have a look at the rest later.

blueyedgeek:
The story of creation as postulated by Christians really has a lot going for it, only thing is the people that wrote it didn't have great foresight. Talking snakes and donkeys, while intriguing are still things that should be left in a children fantasy book not a serious book that aims to explain the why and how of existence.

@op, your story is hilarious by the way although I'm not too sure of your own aim (are you giving your own account as inspired by Lucie or just narrating how the events actually happened. Either way, it's interesting).

I also read in a different thread that you used to go by the moniker Muskeeto and if that's the case, my oga, I troway salute. (I doubt you'll even remember me).
Funny that I think the opposite, that they had immense great foresight, though I'm aware it has been tweaked to serve its purpose.

Those "talking snakes and donkeys", while intriguing and childish, have programmed very many in the way its been desired it would and according to their aim. I'd say. Basically, it may be imperfect, but its sure been the best at aim hitting, going by numbers alone, and longevity.

I just can't wait for us to hit the aim of Eve freeing her ignorant stupid Adam from slavery. Childishness of the stories will definitely intrigue then.

In defence of my view, I Aesop's was part of my baby formula

We clearly don't learn any lesson as a nation. We keep on doing the exact thing every election period. Well most of the people that sell their votes are on the street. They are not online.

Village women, boys, girls, touts, etc. These are the people that sell their votes.
I must wonder which is worst, those "Village women, boys, girls, touts, etc" that are not online that you say sell their votes, or those online here who keep telling me "vote don't count", "inec is steal", and they will definitely not vote and never will.

But, pray tell. What's that thing "we keep on doing the exact"? And what lessons do you think we should learn as a nation?

The 'we' is reserving, who is "we"?

Or maybe, the money they gave people during election is the one they are taking back, who knows.
I was about to say, the sacrifice or investment of a politician, is precisely "the money they gave people during election is the one they are taking back".

But its our fault though, we the voters. We sell our vote and elect a person for the pittance they give us up front, and then we wail that the incompetent person we sold our vote to and elected is incompetent.

Its like I go to the market and the meat seller flirts with me so I forget to properly check and price the meat I am buying, then I get home to find I got rotten meat. I can rant at the meat seller all I want, but I hope I learn my lesson.

CelebritiesRe: Nigeria Woman In France Disgrace Nigeria Woman In Nigeria For Begging Her Money by budaatum: 7:03pm On Oct 14, 2024
Nigerians too de beg! This is a person begging her townsperson, and the fact she recorded her response shows this is not the first beggar she's had to deal with. Its like we have transferred begging from God, to begging from people, like people should provide what your God has not provided for you.

We never see the perspective of those begged from. For starts, the beggar thinks they are the only begging person the japarian has to deal with, forgetting they leave family at home who expect from them. There's the fact that the money you are begging for did not come from sitting on one's ass praying to gods, but from selling the sweat of one's brow to an employer who likely worked one hard for hours or would have said, "don't come back tomorrow". And then there's the japarian's rent and bills that they can't beg anyone for!

Just you imagine what some have to do, like clean the bottom of some old cranky person or sweep the dirty off the road, and someone in Naija is asking you to send them the money you earned because they are hungry or need to pay school fees. And if they knew how you came about that money they'd likely call you a bottom cleaner and street cleaner to make jest of how lowly you are.

People need to stop with this begging and "praying" and get off their asses and work for their own daily bread instead.

Forgive my rant, for that's what this is as I approach the very expensive year end.

On Nigerians? My superpower really is atomically small. Least if I'm being honest.

Currently, I say, "food be in my belly", and my belly is full, but I've never tried feeding a state not to talk of endowing 200 million plus Nigerians with intelligence and smarts, lol.

I am currently experimenting very hard with the sweat of my own brow first though, such that when I say, "buda! Be smart and intelligent", buda gbam! Smarts and intelligent. Then buda will say, "others be smart and intelligent", and others too will rely on the sweat of their own brow to be smart and intelligent and wise.

In fact, I need volunteers. I'll be testing my superpower on me soon.

But you never answered now, before tagging buda!

1. What qualities do you admire in people?

Honesty. Integrity. Brain use.

2. What is your super power?

My words are my superpower. One day I will say "Everyone! Be smart and intelligent", and everyone will suddenly become smart and intelligently use their brain. I'm working on it, as I don't want anyone left out.

3. If you could change one thing about you, what would it be (character or physical trait)?

Discipline. I wish I was way more disciplined than I am.

4. If you could be someone else for one day, who would you like to be?

I'd like to be God. That way, I can kill all the Gods and everyone would then need to rely on the sweat of their own brow instead of looking to the heavens for salvation and manna and their daily bread. Yeah, I know Gods are not someones, but heck.

5. What advice would you give your children or niece/nephew for choosing a spouse?

Learn to learn when you are young, and learning will become your nature and lead to you being wise.
