Just a hypothetical situation. But some do.

Okay I see.

For those who do, I wonder what the rationale is as it doesn't make financial sense imho, or maybe it's the emotional feeling of fully owning your own home. Or money laundering.

I hope we have engineering students from universities doing work experience with the company. It is a very simple job if you have the right tools to work with.
!!

Totally agree. Before they flood the project team with Chinese people.

Like I said, even if you have $800k to throw down, they will give you so much wahala that you may think it is a crime to have cash. IRS will get involved. Franchise Tax board gets in on the game. The paperworks alone will be out of this world. You will have a whole lot of explanations to do. Let's assume you saved all your money, you better have a paper trail to prove it. If you wire anything above $3000 from your account, the agencies will be alerted. The system is set up that way. It is a win-win for the bankers. US hates people who hoard cash.

Can you rent an apartment without credit? Yes. Throw down six months rent. The problem is that most people don't have it.
Just about any well-meaning organization bemoans the fact that finance and money are not taught in High Schools to educate people. If they do, it will be bad business for banks. Banks do not count on your interest rates to make money. They are hoping for one late payment(even if by one day) to jack up interest rate from 2% to 21%. They bait slackers into financial slavery. You finance a car and miss a few months. Thanks God. They repossess the car and all money paid is lost. It is a win-win for everyone involved in the finance industry. The best part is that you become a slave at work. You will not want to rock the boat to avoid domino effect in your lives.

Why would anyone with $800k cash even tie it down into a single asset when you can spread it around and leverage?

DIKEnaWAR:
Is she their auntie? Or you don't know the meaning of auntie?

You can pay them a visit and ask them, I'm sure they will be willing to oblige you with an answer.
Lemme know what you find out, haha

sniperr007:
Sister. I get you. I really do. Like u saying about Nigeria protecting its interest, its FG dat does that for us but as FG no gree, we should hold FG accountable & give them names rather than the IOCs who r doing what's best for them.

Well, we have to make them gree.
I think what annoys me about the IOCs is how they do things in Nigeria they wouldn't dream of doing elsewhere, but you are right, it's up to the govt to put in place the right structures to prevent that.

MONITZ:
Something is obviously wrong in the manner in which u re pestering people's lives to subscribe to your so called winning games. All my life, I ve known that where a man gets his "garri ".is utmostly hidden from prying eyes bt in ur case, the opposite is the case.

And this goes a long way to show that u re nothing bt a con artist because man is never satisfied in his quest to get rich and also he doesn't want others to be like him..

Bt in ur own case u re acting like a Messiah that has been sent to save mankind or like someone that has too much already thereby necessitating ur 'philanthropy '.

Go and sit down already because no nairalander will fall for ur gimmicks..

To be honest, I don't know why the mods don't ban those posts. They litter every thread, it's extremely annoying.

DIKEnaWAR:
How is she related to you? Just asking cos you called her auntie.

That means you don't watch EbonyLiveTV (a station she established) Aunty Mo is what she is called by everyone there

AngelicBeing:
keneking, eph123 and myself will lead the stoning and flogging of APC out of power in 2019, they are indeed useless

haha

This is one lady whose business sense I admire. Aunty Mo

HAH:
Wetin happen to Baba go slow?

Honestly the cabal that is forcing baba to work despite his health challenges are very wicked, all that matter to them is their pocket not Nigeria, since Baba came back he has not left the villa. And the nation suffers it, this is confirmed by the level of confidence and progress recorded when the VP was in charge for 7 weeks

He is also greedy. No one can FORCE him to continue in the sense of the word force.

sniperr007:
Its business. U r after ur own interest 1st. Although they have their flaws but before we blame them or call them names, FG shud 1st take the blame.

Nobody is saying it is not business, if you can't get the point I was making about Nigeria defending its own interests, there's nothing I can do about that.
It's my choice to point out their flaws if I want to. You can support them all you want, that's also your choice.

DSS will be on her case soon. Trust this government, they can't take criticism.

Tear his useless agbada into shreds

Nigerian politicians deserve every negative thing they get. He should just be careful though because that is assault.

"To" and "Will"
Future tense every darn time

sniperr007:
Wud interest should they have? Yours? Dont blame the IOC. Whatever they do is a reaction from the actions from FG.
B4 u blame or accuse the IOCs what abt nnpc. Whats nnpc doing?

I'm not exonerating the FG or NNPC in any way, I'm only just stating the obvious that it's their own interests first and foremost the IOCs will have, so we should stop pandering to them at our expense.

Self deceit.

Deceiving only himself. Eod.

iraborosasu:
They preach the gospel around the world and though their low video quality dramas, abeg what are they before? All churches need money, so do ministries. How else can they do their missions? I'm barely stating the obvious fact..... You're trying to be logical about the whole thing. The point is they would collect money from Efe if he decides to help. #fact

Mister, speak for yourself. You do not represent all ministries in Nigeria and so cannot speak for them.
Amazing how close minded some people can be.

These oil companies only have their own interests at heart.

We need people in the right places who have Nigeria's interests at the fore, otherwise we will continue being at the losing end.

ProsperOkec:
The Boko Haram commanders were not handcuffed.

Our systems are a joke.
These are people who have masterminded the death of several human beings. The blood on the head and hands of this government is appalling.

That's the belt used to commit the murder Evil is living and breathing in the midst of men these days.

Jobabori:
Mount Zion is a Christian drama ministry, not a church

Yeah I know, I later corrected that in another comment. Thanks.

GreenMavro:


But the fact is that...most of the housemates are CHRISTIANS

So sad...the so called christians are now conformed to the world, The world is gradually cripping into the church, am sure some of the housemates will go to their various churches to share testimonies

It's only in Nigeria I see church goers being the same as Christians. They are not.

The fact that by default most people grow up going to church because their parents did, doesn't make one a Christian.
If your faith has no impact on how you live your life each day, you are only a church goer.

iraborosasu:
Every ministry in Nigeria is desperate about getting money. My dear times have changed. Hw would a ministry grow without money in this era. No matter Hw mount zion tries to sugar quote it, they would collect money from Efe if he decides to assist people in the church.

The fact that you are generalising says it all.
Speak for yourself next time rather than lump everyone together. That's like saying every Nigerian is a fraud because times have changed.

You obviously do not know much about Mount Zion, or their values, so don't be fast to point fingers at them. FYI, they are not even a church.

iraborosasu:
So if Efe says he want to assist the less privileged in mount zion ministries, they won't accept?

Maybe you need to go and read up on them. That would clearly address your question.
Not every ministry in Nigeria is desperate about getting money

iraborosasu:
But they won't complain if Efe wants to donate to the church

Other churches may be fine with that, I don't think mount Zion falls into that category.
