Listen boy, you need to get tribalism and bigotry out of your system.
P.S: Its obvious why you're scared of a Buhari Presidency. I also went through your previous posts. Change your mentality. Hate kills.. or it will cause you to get killed. I thought Amaechi, Kwankwasor, Fashola etc are ALL equal members of YOUR party, the APC  So, Buhari is now "more equal" than others that you wouldn't even consider them and you want to start a war and "kill people" if your own party members are suggested as credible  You see yourself  |

ISpiksDaTroof: Field a tested and trusted Northerner that can easily guarantee millions of votes (Buhari) and a Yoruba that is credible(e.g Fashola) with a lineup of Amaechi, Okorocha, Oshiomole, Kwankwaso and co as "Heirs and next-in-line" to the Presidency and watch Jonathan crumble like the dry bread he is. An agreement where Buhari rules for only one term, Fashola takes over with Okorocha as his vice (to pacify Ibos--- its about time they're put in charge of Nigeria... at least in the nearest future) and Nigeria will be back on track.
People like Atiku have no business being in charge. What about: Field a tested and trusted SOUTHERNER that can easily guarantee millions of votes (Amaechi) and credible Hausa-man like Kwankwaso  and line up Fashola, Oshiomole, and co as "Heirs and next-in-line" to the Presidency  You see your sef  |

InvertedHammer: \ [b]You can pontificate all you want.
YOU ARE A BOLD-FACED LIAR!
No Psychologist in the US Army employment is making anything remotely close to what you stated.
Stick to the topic: PSYCHOLOGISTS in US Army.
If you like make a gazillion dollars in a year..not my problem. You CANNOT make that amount legally anywhere in USA other than Wall Street (of course with diverse responsibilities geared towards the market) as a psychologist unless as you stated that there is some "expo" (aka illegality) involved.
But the fact is the fact. Based on what you said, you have no iota of idea about US Military.
So stop this BS already!
I will not want to spoil your fantasy.
I am not here to compete with you about who makes more...that will be a childish thing to do especially with a stranger.
Are you wealthier than Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett? If not, then take a back seat because poverty dey worry you.
Folks with money don't walk around "bragging"...Empty vessels make the most noise, u know.
/ I have no reply for most of what you posted. I have already stated very clearly that I am not and have never been in the US Army! My interest is on "expo" I used: No, I do not do anything illegal and I do not encourage illegality. Read my post: 1- Psychologist 2- 7.5 hours/day 3- 6 weeks holidays per annum 4- 1 in 7 5- $250,000 per annum That is my "expo" to you and everybody who wants to know. These jobs do exist! I'm NOT competing with you and I don't want to compete with you. Like you must have noticed, we have already taken very different paths in life! Please, stop calling people liars when you have NOT done the research and when you're proved wrong, you move another gear of "show off", "brag" etc. Not necessary, just state your point. |

InvertedHammer: / We are exchanging information. Sorry for my harsh tone. Of course, there is a lot of opportunities in the US military but mostly in benefits such as VA mortgages, tuition payments or reimbursement (you have to work for the military for a specified number of years after graduation), etc.
Salary is never the primary motivation for joining the US military. I got involved in this exchange when you started throwing out fictitious numbers as facts. As a matter of fact, I called some colleagues to see if there is a raise that we are not aware of. Of course, there were raises earlier this year but nothing remotely close to the numbers you are quoting. Deployment benefits are in the hundreds of dollars and when added together is less than $2k/month. So the $250k/yr for a Psychologist in the US military is an IMPOSSIBILITY. And for N100m equivalent in less than 3 years as stated by some dude is ridiculous as well comical.
NB: Some folks on NL are not teenagers or High School students. So when you put out information, expect some rebuttals. / Like I said, I'm not in the US Army and I'm not a Psychologist! I did not post the 100 million Naira in 3 years stuff. Medical and para-medical professionals do not "chop" from Basic pay you're putting out there. If you rely on Basic pay then it's the wrong job! However, I'm in "the Business" and I have Psychologists working with me. A Psychologist working 1 in 7 with 6 weeks holidays will make $250,000 per Annum no wahala. Now, my calculations: 3 straight years deployment in Iraq should equal more than 1 in 7 plus regular 7.5 hours by 3 years. Therefore my conclusion that 100 million in 3 years is POSSIBILITY! Now, if you're a Psychologist and you're not making $250,000 PER Annum then there is wahala! Maybe you are not counting your money right: Please bring it let me help you count it very well for you. Maybe you're in the wrong job: don't get "mad" at this statement because we also were in the "wrong jobs" at some stage in "white-mans' land" and got the "expo" and quickly ran. I took it very badly when you call me "liar' as I really have nothing to gain telling lies! Many many years ago, someone I didn't know, never seen before, gave me the "expo" I'm using to chop now and I was just giving back. Besides, thanks to President GEJ and current Minister for Health, things have really changed in Nigeria for Medical and para-medical professionals but I really don't know about Psychologist in Nigeria. |

Aussie: En route to work this morning at about 0600HRs I met an unsual traffick gridlock at Majidun area of Ikorodu road (outward Ikorodu). Roadblock was mounted by military guys, I was shocked and only thought the worst had happened in Nigeria for military guys to flood the road at that time of the day and at an unusual route.
Few meters ahead, I saw over 1000 50ltrs kegs seized from illegal oil dealers. If you know majidun, in Ikorodu well, u will understand what I mean.
Series of arrests have been made alneit so many innocent guys picked up. My conclusion is the Ikorodu police, Owutu, Ikorodu and Ijede divisions know about this illegal fuel business but refused to take steps until the military swung into action.
So far, the navy and army, which comprise the crack team have displayed a high level of professionalism by exhibiting a high level of decorum and civility. But I no fit snap shaaa make I no see their other side.

University  na you sabi 7- motorable road etc Now, if you're husband is employed and the wife is a home-maker, your husband by law has to provide for you as he claims family tax bracket etc Nigerians have to start demanding from their government otherwise there will be so much money available to the government to loot  You hear governor "stealing" abi taking so many millions in $ and you wonder whether the thing is real money or paper printed somewhere in lagos.

InvertedHammer: / I am not just refuting your claims...
I am calling out your BS.
A top psychologist will be probably an O-6. With 38+ years experience, makes $10,844/month = $130,128/year max. I refuse to believe that as a Nigerian in the US Army that you have 38+ years experience (that is you joined in 1976). I am talking about top of the top.
Let me go out of the limb here and speculate. The most you are is O-3 (Captain! And that's me being generous because there are only few Nigerians with that rank in the US Army). So your monthly income is $6305/month = $75,660/year.
By the way, deployment benefits are not that much.
So....tell me! Where in the world do you get your numbers from? LIAR!
 \
\ Just to put the records straight: 1- I'm not a Psychologist ( I said higher than) 2- I'm not in the US Army 3- since you claim to know, how much is deployment allowance  Deployment allowance for 3 consecutive years  4- this is not about you and me! This is about knowledge and opportunities available out there and genuine. Finally, I don't work for or on behave of the US and I'm not a recruiter or an agent and I don't know an agent. US Recruitment is very straightforward and direct with no intermediaries for those interested. I'm sorry I made a contribution. |
