Apparently, it was inevitable that I'd have more to say about the Mourning Mumu Masses. My friend   Uju Iheanyichukwu Kingsley made it so by tagging me in some post in the subject. 

So here goes.

I watched a wildlife documentary recently- it's amazing how much we can learn from watching animals do their thing, the purity of motive; because they have none except those imposed by nature and encoded as instinct. It is fascinating.

So this snake was moulting- shedding its skin. No hands. No legs. How to do? 

It rubbed itself against a rough tree trunk, creating fiction between the bark and the old skin. Old skin breaks and gets caught on the bark. Slithering Sly simply glides out in sleek new shiny leather. 

It turns out most animals shed skin. Humans included. 

Why is this relevant to the subject of the Mega Mumu Magas? Because what  I'm about to say will create friction, that friction will likely lead to leaving some old skin behind- people who disagree with my viewpoint. And I will applaud their exit from my timeline, wall and life in general. 

So...this is a good place  to stop reading and ask yourself if you want to continue? 
You might want to ignore this one and come back to my wall when I'm speaking to less aggravating and more congenial issues. 

If you do choose to read on, I commend you for doing so. Just take a deep breath...and remember, I offer no apologies for anything I write behind this line.

If you put money into the Mega Money Missroad scheme, you are a greedy lowlife!

If you have borrowed money from people to join the scheme you are a lying,  greedy lowlife!

If you spoke to anyone to convince them to join the scheme, you are a wicked, lying, thieving, conniving greedy lowlife!

If you profess to uphold any sort of faith based ideals as a Christian, Muslim or whatever flavor of religion you subscribe to, especially if you hold functional office or leadership position in any capacity within a faith based congregation and any of the previous  three paragraphs applies to you then you are a hellbound, deconscientized wicked lying thieving conniving greedy lowlife!

If you are one of those ranting and popping off about the reactions of chastisement and berating of all the Mumu Money Mongers who have been caught in the maelstrom now that #WinterIsHere and the #GameOfCoins has turned to #HungerGames...

...if you are one of those saying...

 "leave them alone, mind your business, is it your money? It is the economic situation that led them to it, be compassionate...they are already traumatized....don't rub it in..."

I say to you...get thee behind me you offspring of satan! 

Brood of Vipers you lot! 

Your willingness to compromise the basic principles of decency and truthfulness are everything that is wrong with the world and Nigeria! 
You stand for nothing so everything goes...'the end justifies the means' is your creed.
You two faced, no... multiple faced , hydra tongued sirens are the ones who cheer men and women on to their destruction because you just want to get along and find favor with everyone. Bloody hypocrites! 

You are the ones who rant about corrupt politicians... until Uncle James or Aunty Agnes gets an appointment ...then their sudden wealth becomes 'gods blessing'...and you trot out in your Sunday best for thanksgiving service. 
Everything for you is relative...there are no cardinal principles in your book. I actually fear you lot the most. You would kill a man. That's why the longest paragraph is about you lot.

See...EVERYONE I know and spoke to who got into this  thing KNEW what a pyramid or Ponzi scheme is! I can say this categorically because I made sure they did at the end of that conversation, if they didn't prior to it.....

They KNEW that the scheme does not create ANY value, and that the 30% payout was simply from fresh funds brought in by new recruits...who continued to widen the base of the 'pyramid' .

They KNEW that it would not go on forever because the pyramid would grow so big that at some point that the payouts would not be sustainable for various reasons- 'matching' being one of them- and this would be when the game masters would cash out , leaving whoever was still in the value chain hanging....which would be A WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE.

They KNEW that a Pyramid scheme was set up primarily to grow the pyramid large enough to guarantee a huge payday for the puppet master who set it up. They KNEW that the payouts to early adopters was designed to create a facade of genuineness and build credibility; the fuel needed to get more people in...They just DID NOT CARE as long as they hoped to get some of that payout first. 

A little illustration here...who remembers  those parties you'd attend as a kid and the game 'musical chairs'? - more people than chairs dancing to music around a circle made with the chairs. Everyone needed to sit down when the music stopped or they were 'out'. Meaning that since there were fewer chairs than people, some people were sure to be out in every round, and you didn't care who as long as you got a seat. you'd actually push nd shove people , friends and siblings typically to survive the game...remember? Good. That's how a pyramid scheme works.

These plonkers  KNEW that every new recruit they brought in would potentially allow the music go on long enough to cash out, hopefully. SO they went about evangelising...or at the very least dipping into the pool in the hope to get a payout off someone else eventual loss....

They CHOSE to take the risk of loss, on the backs of equally greedy nitwits who wanted in on the game. So effectively, there are no victims, everyone wanted to play someone to get ahead...to make theirs at the expense of whoever was still standing when the music went silent.

Well, the music has gone quiet and they are all in mutually agreeable good company. 

And people are asking for empathy!!! For who??!!
