Marriage is not just about love. It is also a lifelong financial partnership. If you are not emotionally, mentally and financially prepared, rushing into it because of pressure from family, friends or society can create unnecessary hardship for both partners. |

Car Talk › Re: Tips For First Generation Car Owners by Gotocourt: 10:04am On Jul 01 |
YourGFsnatcher: If you are the first person in your house to buy a car, this might be useful to you.
Some of us were not privileged to have parents who had cars, so simple car maintenance might be new to us. No matter how smart you are, when it comes to cars, experience is key, but knowledge will help you save cost and avoid heartbreaks.
I will not go into minor details like checking of temperature, oil, filter, etc for believe that's what you will first learn. Let's go into more complex issues.
1. Ensure you understand how your car works more than you trust your mechanic
My first car was a Peugeot. The major issue with maintaining a Peugeot is having an electrician that understands Peugeot wiring.
The brainbox of my car was burn because the electrician thought the car had issues when it didn't turn off after the ignition was off. Not knowing it's a security issue, he rewired the car and burnt my brain box, had to buy new brainbox and the car was never the same again. Why the car didn't turn off was because the AC was on, and turning on the car with the AC on usually affects some components like the fuel pump, so the manufacturers made it such that without turning off the AC, the car won't turn off. But other models don't operate like that, so it was a new thing for the electrician
Don't just meet any electrician, ensure you find someone who understands how the model of yiur car works. If not you will spent money every week on one problem or the other, and it all leads back to electrician issues.
2. Know about your care model.
My second car was a corolla that has never been tempered with. So when I started the car during cold season, the radiator fans weren't working. I panicked and called the electrician to help me fix it. He charged me a lot of money. What I didn't know what that the fans will not start until the engine temperature gets to a particular degree. He disconnected my fans from the sensors such that the fans will start immediately when the engine is on...so in essence, I paid someone to mess with my car
3. Understand your lights.
Some car models will automatically turn on your parking light when you disengage the Handbrake. Don't panick, that's how they are design, rewiring the car to put off the light will be doing damages to your car. In the evening or during rain, the dashboard light might automatically turn up too. These are all normal, don't pay someone to mess with your car.
4. Understand acceleration
Finally, this is one the reasons why you can burn fuel and destroy your engine without achieving efficiency.
Accelerating is not all about pressing the accelerator to the highest point. Doing that will send signal to your engine that it would consume more fuel and work at full capacity. That will just break your engine.
Smart acceleration is not rigorous, the car understands that you want to move faster, that's why it's not called velocitator but accelerator, meaning the velocity changed with time. Just maintain that soft paddling and you will achieve the acceleration you are looking for. That doesn't stress the engine and saves you a lot of fuel.
If you want to have a rigorous acceleration, then buy sport cars, that's what they are meant for. Their engine power can withstand it.
What has been your experience and mistakes when you had your first car? No, make you snatch my girlfriend abi  |

altteemy: I agree with the boldened. Even a potential Father-in-law at the first meeting will ask you what you do for a living.
However, what I do not subscribe to is looking for a man that will be turned into an ATM. Imagine a case where you're being billed for date transport or date clothes. Some might even want to size you up with saying "I spend xyz monthly to maintain my hair/body". I have never heard of a man billing a date for transport or asking for money to cut his hair.
The signs are always there. Date wighin your financial bracket else you would feel mad when the billings start coming in from those that can't afford to take care of themselves or those that feel your money is simply there for them to consume while theirs is simply theirs. Na that date clothes dey vex me  |
Crime › Re: Don't Buy Phones Without Receipt, He Was Arrested Because Of This by Gotocourt: 1:00pm On Jun 28*. Modified: 7:29pm On Jun 28 |
Goo0dHardDick: I went to the market 2 days ago and I saw lots of people gathered in a shop directly opposite the store where I was purchasing an item.
According to the story, policemen on mufti came all the way from Anambra State to make arrest here in SS region. They were from State CID, anambra police department or however they call it. The policemen tracked a lost phone to someone, who directed them to the person who sold it to him (with receipt), who in turn took them to the shop where he got the phone. Now the seller (the shop owner) must have bought the phone from someone a long time ago and probably because it was so cheap, he went ahead to seal the deal and then in turn sold it out.
Now the case is complicated because the seller (the shop owner) bought that phone from someone who he doesn't even know, and obviously has no receipt either. The policemen has been tracking the phone for probably over a month now until they tracked it down to SS region here and made arrest. Right now, both the buyer, the middleman and the seller have all been taken to anambra police division same day the arrest was made. Nobody knows if the phone was stolen or the original owner of the phone was kidnapped, killed or attacked.
Be careful and avoid phones without receipts, wether you're a phone seller or a customer going to purchase a phone. Am presently on a case of phone which was used for fraud. We've arrested and recovered 60% of the money. Don't buy a phone without the carton 📌💯. X squad police will track you down. I can't post how the tracking analysis looks like. Don't do cash payment, either way 🤷🏿. Lastly, don't allow anyone using his sim on your phone. The IMEI keeps all SIM records. A brand new phone was used for fraud in my case and sold, seven guys were arrested (buyers and middle men)📌💯. |

This is different from the usual longitudinal drawings we see in textbooks. This student was told to draw again.
My feedback would have been: "This is a beautiful drawing of a skeleton. A longitudinal drawing would have been appropriate for this subject."
What are your thoughts on the feedback below? Zero, straight up, why shading  |
