This is my fear whenever I want to link my account to any crypto trading platform OR stuff. Infact, that is the reason up till now I don't do crypto trading etc.

It's not crypto related. Nobody can blacklist your BVN because of crypto. Read this, and read it well trading in cryptocurrency is not a crime. What possibly happened is that he may have received money from an illegitimate source.

Chelsea, welcome to the era of decay.

If you are rich, the best place to spend your money & have rest of mind without thinking of too much taxation to me is still Nigeria.
Apart from the fact you are a into Medicine, Nursing or I.T which pay well abroad, 90% of the time it's actually frustration, unemployment & lack of opportunities in Nigeria that make people try to travel out of the country.
I have a friend who spent more than 2 million Naira trying to aquire a U.S Visa. Few weeks to the day he was supposed to fly to the U.S, he got a job of 500K per month in Umuahia.
Immediately my guy abandoned all the plans he had of traveling out, plus the 2 million he had already spent & Immediately accepted the job.
Now he's doing well, just bought a Car & is already planning on building a house & settling down.
He no longer even thinks of leaving the country again.
The devil you know, is better than the angel you don't know.
A lot of people still went to the U.S & flopped big time.

500k a month pay? That's nothing na. He should have still travelled out.

There will always be regrets!
Lived my life so far trying to make sure that there are no regrets but no matter how good life is, there will always be that one thing you will always think you should have done or not have done! Life is like that!
Don't be too hard on yourself. We are here for only a while. And no one is perfect
Do your utmost best and let the rest slide..

Word!!! There will always be regrets. Embrace your decisions and move on.

Finland Sharing Border with Ukraine, is the only thig they have "in-Common" with Ukraine, aside that, they are a different situation.
What do "Alliance" provide in a War? Weapons, Intelligence and at times, Boots. That is what NATO is providing to Ukraine.

I agree with you, Ukraine was an Industrial Hub in the former USSR, it is also "one of" their Nuclear Sites (Chernobyl and one other one) but there are many more other sites in the former USSR, which are now in Russia.
Odessa in Ukraine, is also a major Maritime Hub if USSR.

Russia is "back-tracking" on WHAT? To attack Finland?
Russia NEVER PROMISED to attack Finland or Sweden if they join NATO.

But like l pointed out, "re-assessing the situation and taking the best decision, even if that means changing your earlier decision", is not the exclusive of Russia alone, America has done it a lot of times, within the last few weeks, and it was related to the Russia-Ukraine War.

Even America reversed itself in Afghanistan, when the situation changed hand , why is Russia being crucified for taking the best position, in matters that affected it.

Did you mean to say, Finland shares border with Russia? Because Finland doesn't share border with Ukraine.
Yes, Putin initially threatened Finland and Sweden when he said there will be consequences, if they joined NATO. Whether that consequence is an attack, is left to Putin.
Your last paragraph is stressing my point. There is no crime in backtracking, whether you call it tactical withdrawal or restrategizing, it's still the same. Like you pointed out, even America withdrew in Afghanistan and Vietnam, so let's call it what it is and stop trying to dress the pig. Putin is not averse to mistakes, he is human too.

Stop using Insults and foul language to convey whatever you want to say!
It does not show maturity or good Upbringing.

You have the Right to air your own Opinion, just like anyone here,
You dont have to accept what those on the other side say, and they dont have to accept yours but we all deserve a "Healthy Space" where we can learn from each other, free of these sort of Insults and Abuses that undermine whatever you are saying.
I am certain you have more important things to say, so why waste time on Insults, instead of saying those things, so other people can learn from you?

There are lot of difference between Finland/Sweden and Ukraine:
1) Russia and Ukraine are in a border dispute over Crimea, Russia does not have a border dispute with Sweden/Finland.
With Ukraine in NATO, that military Group HAS TO PHYSICALLY fight on behalf of Ukraine! That is why the Article of Association says "You cant join NATO (or even the E.U), if you are currently engage in a War with another country".

2) Sweden/Finland have friendly Relations with Russia, they have Non-Aggression treaties, Russia does not have that with Ukraine.

3) Ukraine is trying to secretly develop Nuclear Weapons. Just like Israel will not accept its neighbor, Iran develop Nuclear Weapons (Existential threats) and it still bombed them last Weekend), Russia will not allow Ukraine to develop a Nuclear bomb.
Sweden and Finland have No Interest in the Nuclear Bomb.

4) Ukraine was also developing Chemical and Biological Weapons. Finland and Sweden are not.
Russia raided the WMD Laboratories in Ukraine (they tried to destroy as much of it as possible), sieved the items and documents and presented them to the UN Security Council.
(I can bet, 90% of People commenting here have not read that Report, I have read it and have a Copy).

So, in conclusion, We cant compare Sweden/Finland joining NATO, to Ukraine trying to joing NATO, they are a World apart, when it comes to the Threat it posses to Russia.
Every Country with the Muscle to Act, will do so, if the action of its Neighbor threatens its Security.

I know a lot of People dont appreciate Russia, we dont appreciate the stability they are bringing to the table, when it comes to "Geo-Balance" in the World Order. Just like we never appreciated the USSR until it was imploded by America and then we all saw ho America was matching and inflicting War on one country after another, with No one to challenge its hegemony. But it was too late, USSR was gone already.

"Majority of the Masses cannot be trusted to take the right decisions that is best for them, that is why we have "Government and Leaders", let us just hope they are not like the Nigerians Leaders/Government.


NB: No Offense, l will be glad to read your own OPINION as well, just let it be devoid of Abuses/Insults.
We are all learning from each other.

Finland shares a border with Russia. Ukraine was the nuclear and industrial hub of USSR, they have nuclear power. Where do you think Chernobyl is located?
The matter is simple, Putin is realizing he has bitten more than he can chew and is slowly back tracking to save face. Wars are won by alliance. Enough of the sugar coating.

alabo1:
Go and read you will not. Finland and Sweden in NATO pose no threat unless strategic missiles are deployed there. Ukraine poses a major threat due to its geographical location and Russian previous experiences with invasions. You Western BOTS will never read only get your information from CNN

Last time I checked, Russia shares borders with Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Estonia, and FINLAND!!!. So when you imply that Finland doesn't pose a threat to Russia geographically, what does that even mean?

Peter532:
This is a girl I signed for tailoring work, her attitude towards me this year changed drastically because of hard times am going through. I have seen her at the far end of my street standing with boys of same age with her holding her anyhow in the waist and every time I caution her that she's no longer a small girl but a woman.

I thought maybe she will grow up, but since on Sunday afternoon she left for her mother's place, she was supposed to come back in the evening, I waited till on Monday morning I couldn't call her because the last time I bought phone for her, she lied she lost it, I later found out that she gave it to one guy who is a Yahoo boy, it nearly caused a big issue that the community chairman had to be involved to settle the whole matter and the money of the phone was paid back to me.

I had to go to her mother place only to see my daughter there and she wasn't in sight. Though her mom was trying to hide it from me but I know what's going on, this isn't the first time she's done something like this

I Just left there this evening, all her mother was saying is I should take it easy.

I didn't beat her

We didn't quarrel, she just left on Sunday afternoon to drop my 3 year daughter at her mothers place.

I'm ashamed of the whole thing, everyone in my compound keeps asking me of her whereabouts, til it has gotten to the far end of our street.

I can't even come out in peace, if I do they must be one person to ask me what happened just to find my mouth, and the shame of explaining everything to them of her she dumped my daughter since on sunday is not easy.

Note: please those Ladies thinking I toke advantage of her, I didn't.
I'm a very educated individual, I did introductions with her parents before she came to live with me.
Then her dowry was paid.
It was my choice, every man dreams to get married to a tear rubber. If I want to remake that choice I probably do it again, this was never to discourage those who wants a young wife.

What is wrong with you? Why would you even bring this issue to a public forum? Don't you have any shame? Go and deal with your issues and stop embarrassing yourself.

It's no more hidden.

What you don't know is international bankers have recruited CZ and other crypto moguls for the great reset crime.

Yeah. They also recruited Mickey Mouse

Useless Gary Gensler, I am very sure the SEC has a hand in the depegging of TerraUST. Crypto is here to stay!

hopefulLandlord:
"You need to respect people's beliefs" i call this arguably the most hypocritical statement ever, why?

I've noticed theists say the above statement whenever you're criticising their flavour of religion, I've NEVER seen a Christian pop up and say "Respect People's beliefs" when one is criticising Islam or a Muslim stating that when one is criticising Christianity

I've even seen this play out like a script on this platform too, a Christian goes to a thread about Islam to bash Mohammed, Allah and Islam but comes to a thread bashing Jesus, Yahweh and Christianity to start demanding for "respect for other people's beliefs"

Infact most religions are built around disrespecting other people's belief. does a Christian think he/she is "respecting" other people's beliefs when singing "Mami water power, powerless power, Babalawo power, powerless power"? does a Babalawo hear such a song and think "Oh! This Christian is really respecting my belief"? Does a Mami Water believer think "This song is epitome of respecting my belief"?

"Jesus na you be oga,Jesus na you be oga every other god na so so yeye everyother god na so so yeye"? Does a Hindu listen to such a song and says " These guys are respecting my belief"?

But if an atheist dare says "Jesus power powerless power" or "Yahweh is imaginary" or "Christianity is bullsheet" a Christian would quickly say "You need to respect other people's belief".

A Muslim would trot out the same statement when one says "Mohammed is evil and not from God or pedophile" or "Islam is bullsheet". This is highly hypocritical.
Even Innocent looking statements of faith like "only Jesus saves," or "Jesus is Lord" or "Only Christianity is from God, others are from the devil" are disrespectful of Jewish, Islamic and all other beliefs not named Christianity. Every religious doctrine necessarily contradicts somebody else's doctrine, so any declaration of belief is disrespectful to some other belief.
Demands for "respect" when one criticises their own beliefs are really just demands for special privilege. They want others to refrain from critiquing their own beliefs but want full freedom to critique everybody else's belief. Do most Christians respect the beliefs of the Nation of Islam? Scientology? Satanism? The Taliban? Wiccan Witchcraft? Christian preachers and proselytizers spend a lot of time explaining why all other religions are false/evil/Satanic but start asking for respect when one says the same about their own beliefs.

I respect a person's right to have their beliefs (so as long as they are not causing harm with them). But I absolutely have no reason to respect their beliefs themselves. When theists start respecting other religions then their own I will actually consider it.
Respect is earned, it's not something you can demand.

If someone comes to me and says that Muhammad cracked the moon in two or Jesus raised the dead then I'm within my rights to laugh at their ridiculous beliefs. It's ok, if you tell me that the world is flat or Buhari is dead and he's been replaced by a body double I'll ridicule it too. I can ridicule secular beliefs as well. I expect people to not only question my beliefs, but ridicule them when they're ridiculous. Someone who lets me keep believing the moon is made of green cheese isn't doing me any favors at all.



"You’ve gotta respect everyone’s beliefs." No, you don’t. That’s what gets us in trouble. Look, you have to acknowledge everyone’s beliefs, and then you have to reserve the right to go: "That is fucking stupid. Are you kidding me?" I acknowledge that you believe that, that’s great, but I’m not going to respect it. I have an uncle that believes he saw Sasquatch. We do not believe him, nor do we respect the nonsense he said!"

Patton Oswalt, on people’s beliefs

Well said.

MrBachelor:
Something similar almost happened to a corper in a certain northerner state where I served. He urinated in a gutter close to a mosque, and they accused him of desecrating their holy ground. He was quickly descended upon and beaten by a mob. Knives were already drawn. Luckily he escaped them, jumped into a friend's waiting car and that one sped off.

Those marrafuckers pursued on bikes, wielding sticks, knives, and machetes. Already, those corpers don put call, so men don already prepare dey wait. We left the gate open, and as soon as they drove into the compound we opened fire on the marauders. They had no idea we had guns - very good guns by the way.

No ask me why(or how) corpers go get guns. But we had them, and very willing to use them.

Nice movie.. Nollywood or Western?/

Oponu, Bitcoin is down 46% since last year, it has been trending down for months now, so don't pin it on interest rate dumb ass!

Lol.. Copy and paste analyst. I only pity those who give you money to manage. Troglodyte.

abbey621:
Again I'll answer your question by saying you need to stick to facts. Stocks rally or drop based on several factors from market sentiments to global recession. When you say stock flatlined are you talking about scalping? Hourly? Daily? Weekly? Monthly? What chart are you looking at?

Furthermore, you honestly believe the stock market declining today has anything to do with interest rate increase more than it has to do with Ukraine, global supply crisis and inflation? Here's one way to burst your theory? Before yesterday what was it? Can you compare it to the previous week? Do you see a positive or negative correlation? You'll be surprised to know that stocks have been declining well before the interest rate increase hence your theory in this particular situation is not applicable.

Finally, as someone who has traded forex, stocks and bonds for over 15 years now, I can tell you one thing, you're missing context, before news like this can affect the market positively or negatively you must consider what was the expectation? Were investors/consumers expecting the rate increase or was it a surprise? This determines how the market moves. For example if they were expecting 0.25 point increase but the feds left interest rate at 0.25 then it could signal that the economy is still too weak and needs to be stimulated, conversely, if they were expecting no rate increase and the feds increased by 1 points, it could mean the feds are trying to combat inflation and the market can react negatively or not at all, notice the keyword "EXPECTING".

Mr "I have 15 years experience in stocks and bonds" can you please explain why the crypo market and stock market has been going down since the increase in interest rate by the Feds? Don't bother answering, it's a rhetorical question. Wack analyst.

Mr analyst, can you explain why Bitcoin has come crashing down since the half percentage increase in interest rate by the Feds? I had this long to rub this poo in your sucky face.

Talk about glorified burdens, look no further than those two.

okrikaboi:
MGTOW for life!

LoL.. I am no MGTOW. I just calling out an obvious elephant in the room. Marriage is highly overrated.

LoL.. There is zero benefit, I repeat zero benefit. Marriage is an overated venture and frankly, a waste of resources.

I see no difference here. The woman was ugly from the get go.

LoL... Read where Chris Rock asked if the attacker was Will Smith

Oga dey weren't sleeping in the car. What has being humble gotten to do with this? Are u not stupid? Didn't they get any symptoms before dying away? Couldn't they survive naturally by getting out or opening the windows to get in more air. If they were asleep that theory would have held grounds but not in this particular case. Theres something foul that's my point. Stop forming ITK when u actually know nada

Don't mind them. Wack science students everywhere.

[color=indigo]We inhale carbon monoxide almost everyday. Gas plants, generator sets, steel plants, animal belches, burning coals, etc. The difference here is that prolonged exposure to CO in an enclosed space is lethal. It is my theory that if...(not practical but) and only if they had like a vase of plant in the car their story wouldn't have ended up the way it did. Another way to avoid it is to have CO meter in the home and the car. Fresh air is indispensable natural help against CO poisoning.

Yes, we breathe it everyday but breathing it continually in an enclosed space tips the scale of the odds of surviving against one.[/color]
