Everyone needs to know about Elon Musk What set him apart from others is his zeal to learn and change the world (not just having the zeal) but he takes the action.
He founded a company called zip2, sold it for 365 million dollars of which he made a 22 million dollars profit. He did not stop there (I know I would).
He invested 10 million dollars in a company he founded called X.com(not a porn site) which eventually merged with another website and gave birth to Paypal. (you're suprised, that's just the beginning).
Paypal was sold to eBay for 1.5 billion dollars of which he had the highest equity(11%) and it gave him an instant 170 million dollars (a normal person would have stopped there but that guy ain't normal).
He started SpaceX with his own personal money (100 million dollars), then Tesla motors, then Solar City. Google about "HyperLoop". It is a high speed transportation machine that will begin construction this year.
What I am trying to say is that the man called Elon Musk is more than just a Scientist, but an inventor, an innovator, a visionary and last but not the least a Risk Taker
Who wouldn't want to be like him? I know I would.

SWIFT that was developed by apple hasn't been heard of. you need to do your homework

Jobs was a visionary and one of the greatest entrepreneur of the 20th century. He had the determination to succeed.
I have watched his Stanford’s 2005 speech (even have it on my phone) and that was the greatest speech I have seen.
His great marketing strategy was what made his standout. The final words he gave in that speech was "stay hungry, stay foolish", and I am determined to abide by those words. RIP

stream movies and probably complete that website I have abandoned. u took dis question from quora, right?

one of the best ebooks for learning is the "........ for dummies" series. I am currently using it and its cool. search on google "HTML5 and CSS3 for dummies". I actually prefer reading and putting it into practice than the interactive sites.

My experience.

When I gained admision to oau I was very happy, but I wanted to do biological science and I was given chemistry. I was just happy I got the admission and nothing more. I didn't take my time to find out about the course so I found out the hard way In school. One thing I want jambites to pls do before resuming. Find out about your course of study and stop waiting for any orientation programme, you might not hear or pick anything from what they will say and that's if you attend the orientation programme self.

I had my first f in year one as an undergraduate and I tell you it was terrible. I cried my eyes out. I had f in a 5units course, i just stared at the result for long and couldn't believe it was my result.Bad enough it was pasted with name and matric no. Typical of mathematics department in oau. They have got no chills for anybody, is none of their business if you didn't offer further maths in your secondary school. They teach like it's a continuation from secondary school further maths. They jump steps and keep telling you am sure you have done this in secondary school.

Gosh, those days i felt like strangling them and mind you I was attending classes regularly but still failed so it was that terrible.
I immediately checked out my friends results too and they all passed, even the one that had an E made me feel bad, then I remembered that movie "3idiots" .

It wasn't easy telling people my pains then, some were just curious not like they care. And then you meet senior colleagues telling you stuffs like and this the simplest maths o, they killed my spirit the more. That f did a massive destruction on my gp.

I consoled myself tho after 2weeks and made up my mind to change my course immeditely. A decision many found strange, they kept reassuring me I can do better but I knew better than to listen to them. I know where my strength lies and have had enough of the push. My parents wanted me to become a doctor by force by fire which took my 3years of writing jamb without still getting it.So I decided to leave humbly witn my 3rd class just in year one before they show me the way out (road 1).

Immediately change of course form was out I obtained mine fast and am happy in my new department.

At the end is all about being fulfilled and happy in whatever field you find yourself.

Stop allowing people push you around to satisfy their own aims.Live your own life and stop existing only, have a say on your life. So many undergraduates today are studying a course cos their parents wanted them to or the society or even for their own selfish aims and then we have so many unhappy youth these days. Aim at being fulfilled and then you find happiness abundantly.

u av med nw. I jst pray God favor me lyk u cos i applied 4 med dis y nd wz given anoda nd m tking jamb again in uniben again

I have a friend who wants to study med nd surgery nd he filled DELSU in his jamb form and he was discouraged from choosing DELSU as it is not a fed school nd ws told to pick a skul lyk uniben or uniport as d skul one finishes 4rm matters a lot. I thought of it as a stupid thing nd it wasnt true until i watched a movie today and it was clearly exhibited as a man who went to one of the best schools in the country was given more favour and opportunities than one who went to a local school.. Please is there any truth to this nd throw more light on the matter so i wil understnd. Thank You.

I just watched Westlife's final tour at Croke, Dublin again and I couldn't stop the tear forming in my right eye from dropping. This live concert happened in 2012 but it was like its happening right now. Almost everyone in the stadium that day were crying. Those guys really sang powerful, sober and life reflecting songs. Its a pity that cool songs like these hardly exist these days. Am tired of the half baked songs we get these days.
Westlife thank you. *sheds a tear* I guess am an emotional person

pls hw did u get it to wtch cos av bin lukin 4 it?
