Chaii... But this man has been on senate seat over 20yrs. So it's possible for him to acquired all these and more, if he wish to.

What is the salary of a senator?

People want to buy and hold for 2years when we are in bull market, it easier to by a coin that has done 100X and say u would hold for 2 yea.

$OP for instance is $1.3, nobody will and hold for 2 year now oo.

When its $20 next year, people will start buying and holding for 2 years.

Tell us about OP please

why you block him in the first place

Everyday they send messages on exchange rates and freight costs so I keep them on block. I only unblock them when I want to do transfer

Switched back on my money transfer agents Whatsapp and £ just hit N1,000

Where did you get that from? Post war when all the people who did not die fighting join the unemployment pool that already includes all those let go from building armaments?

It's not like countries broke from fighting wars have money left over to employ them to rebuild.

Of course during war, unemployment is at lowest but if you compare post war to regular peace times, you willl find low unemployment after the initial shock of people returning, companies actually start to take on non-war capacity, infrastructure rebuilds etc. No be why the Wind rush generation was called to Britain to come and rebuild it

UK post war unemployment below.and US also (factor in great depression from 1929 to 1939 for USA)

We'll see when that bull gets to market.

Meanwhile, here's how hard it is to find staff.

We're in a weird time. Even in the UK, were at all time low unemployment despite several economic stressors.

I wouldn't mind seeing more writings drawing parallels between a post pandemic economy and a post war economy. Unemployment is always low post war (rebuilding, people now confident to spend) while inflation goes through the roof.

budaatum:
That was then when money cost 0%, and this is now when it's 5% and rising.

I guess he can wait till 2027 or so, but I expect him to have eroded a lot more of whatever value it has by then.

Of course he will wait till next bull market for such a play

Musk does not make money from turning profit, he.makes money from capital markets, so Twitter willl definitely be back.on the stock.exchange after he has got.his story right.

Left to me I don't even know how SpaceX and Starlink are two different companies except to rip off the Capital markets in two seperate IPOs. Space X is a service company for Starlink as far as I am concerned. Most companies are doing vertical integration,.Musk is decoupling companies so he can float several overvalued IPOs and cashout. SpaceX is just a transport company, Starlink is where the real money is cos that is a potential cash business. But mix all that narrative together and SpaceX is currently valued at $125bln

budaatum:
They buy narrative until their eyes are opened to reality.

Tesla has almost halved in 6 months already, and smart money hates losses. Tesla is valued way more than Ford and GM combined despite selling a fraction of cars they sell, so it likely has more bottom beneath it.

It doesn't matter if Twitter true value is $20bln. He can IPO at $100bln and by the time it fall back to $20bln, by then Elon has exited. Bros, whales escape at the point.of utmost liquidity

That's how he escaped a chunk of his Tesla position at all.time high by fabricating an argument about tax with Elizabeth Warren. I even see the Twitter buy as an excuse to escape an.overvalued Tesla. That gave him a reason to dump $20bln in Tesla with no questions asked and without Tesla suffering a selloff

kyrie Irving posted a documentary hosted on amazon. he posted the link on Twitter. the documentary says Africans are Semites. He got suspended for anti-jew posts (anti-semitism) meanwhile they let Amazon to still host the video and no one is dragging amazon. only Kanye west is defending him. media uses Shaq to attack Kyrie more.

What he said about Floyd is true. he died of a drug overdose

You obviously didn't listen to Kanye drink champs

Whatever you think about Floyd death is your business. Kanye is now calling himself Floyd, saying.Jews are keeping knee on his neck

raumdeuter:
Israel the home of the Jews just elected a right wing govt a few days ago. Israel is not angry at Musk as far as I know, And I think Netanyahu wont have a problem with Musk
When the Ukraine war started, Musk was the person who provided them with Internet that allowed many citizens to remain connected

A few far left or far right who overrate themselves wont change anything.

Stock market did not crash because of Trump, World war 3 did not happen and most of them didn't relocate

In a few months they will probably sneak back to twitter, They love the attention too much to let go

Trump didn't even let go of Twitter, All those who threatened to leave to Parler have all come back with their tail between their leg. All those who are screaming they will leave Twitter will also return

The ADL is not a small boy in directing Jews in the West on how to behave. Israel as a Govt hardly get involved, they have enough Jewish.agents to do that. This one is a small.slap on the wrist for the Kanye unbanning, of.course they would expect Musk as any rational businessman to react positively to show that Twitter won't be a platform for spreading antisemitism. Jews don't do that freedom of speech shït, they've seen the consequences

budaatum:
Ibime, come on man. Loss of advertising revenue plus loss of staff, which in this staff scarcity environment is a huge asset throaway, and you think twitter will ipo in this ipo hostile market for $88 billon when money costs 5% and rising?

I guess you think those who insisted he buy it from them knew nothing of what they were selling, lol. This, however, is not Tesla nor is it new tech.

Even dump easily started his own, so just about anyone can, and it won't have the toxicity Elon has musked his with.

He'd need to do some serious grovelling to keep user numbers positive as it is. And he's already been on SECs radar so hyping up share price might not be so easy.

If he can push Tesla to a trillion, he can push Twitter to $88bln on a promise and narrative. Retail investors don't buy fundamentals, they buy.narrative and that's the crowd that invests in his companies, while smart money will follow them there as whales love liquidity

benalvino3:
and you canceled Kanye for stating the obvious.

Black people ain't strong enough to cancel Kanye for the George Floyd nonsense he was talking. But those who were offended sat back and smiled and let the Jews do it for them when he.went to misyarn on their side

After the initial gragra, Everyone will calm down and move forward

Jews and Gays have longer memory than these groups above. If Jews cancel you, you stay cancelled, ask Mel Gibson

goal post shifting. businesses that boycott fox eventually went back.

what is unlimited ad space got to do with boycotting?

when everything cools down, the virtue signaling will stop and they will quietly start advertising again.

Did Fox fail to fill its ad slots during the boycott? I'm not even aware of any major brands boycotting them

Social media have infinite slots, anything lost will not be replaced

Does Fox have a network effect? It's on Twitter that Twitter users themselves will tell you not to advertise on this site

budaatum:
He did not think it through when he bid for twitter. He very soon realised he'd opened his mouth too big and his supposed free speech cost him a whopping $44 Billion! And now he's slowly finding out it would cost him even more, lol.

Now, if that's not lesson enough that speech is not free then he hasn't learnt anything yet. He lost PayPal through his big mouth and might learn how big his mouth is when he loses Tesla and SpaceX too.

He's already caked out healthily. I'm sure he is more of the view that there is more money to be made in hyping up share price than in turning over profit. It's his.modus.operandi with Tesla. He can actually cut Twitter profit in half and still IPO it for $88bln with enough narrative and promises

benalvino3:
all this is noise. we saw them do the same crap with fox and since fox does not give a F they quietly start advertising again.

he should cut down the workforce to only relevant personnel and just continue to do his thing. all this noise will eventually stop

Fox is not a social media channel with unlimited ad space. How many 30 second ad slots can you fit in 24 hours on Fox?

Livelystone01:
It is this midterm election that will show if people prefer their stomachs over other things.
This election will show if activists are truly powerful or just noise makers.

That would assume that the average voter actually knows what causes stomach upset. Midterms always favour the opposition party even if stomach is full

budaatum:
But it's free speech na! I can say whatever the heck I want and it will cost me nothing, in the alternative fact world, perhaps.

Like you said, he bought poison

budaatum:
Seriously! Not taken over for a week and loss of revenue is bothering him. Did Musk not think pressure groups had a say in twitter's revenue?

I guess he should have consulted a certain Kanye or put him on the board. He'd have gotten very useful advice if he had.

He better watch his Tesla, because it's those same woke pressure groups buying it to save the planet from overheating.

The Antidefamation League put out an announcement asking advertisers to stop advertising on Twitter, obviously taking note of Kanye reentrance. .

One thing about this world, it costs nothing to be nice, but when you go around deliberately seeking people to offend, you will discover that those people are also consumers with dollars to spend on product
.
Those lawyers/moderators in corporations are not there as social activists, they are there to implement policies that protect the companies bottom line

Police Chief Bill Scott told reporters that when responding officers knocked on the front door, the door was opened by “someone inside” and that officers observed Paul Pelosi and David DePape wrestling over a hammer. The officers did not enter the home, instead they ordered the two men to drop the hammer and that DePape then took control of the hammer and beat Pelosi with it.


the bolded suggest there was a 3rd person.

Police later said when the door was opened saying there was only paul and depape.

the question that then came up was which of the two men opened the door for the police. now we know it was Paul. If the police had the footage, why was they misleading the public with false event of what actually happened?

the second bolded was false too because Paul opened the door for them and went back to his attack. the police claiming when the door was opened they saw 2 men fighting over a hammer.

Does it make sense? if they claim it was only 2 men and someone opened the door for them.

You are talking nonsense based on the conspiracy in your mind

So Pelosi cannot see the Police lights pulling into his driveway and go open the door and walk back in the house. Most likely the house has gate so you can open the door long before Police set eyes on you once you buzz them in the gate. You think he is living in face-me-I-face-you?

If you are an old man in a hostage situation and let's say you convince your kidnapper someone is coming, you better open the door beforehand, than allow kidnapper take you to the door to see Police there. I will open the door clandestinely and continue yarning, making the kidnapper think everything is kosher until the Police bust in. The only wahala I see here is the Police thought they were on a welfare check and did not bust in as you would a hostage situation, and Depappe probably spotted them or Police car first and started flipping.

And your other suggestion to run from the door to the Police, I assume you know the distance from the door to Police car and can judge that an 82 year old man will fancy himself to get to Police before kidnapper gets to him.

benalvino3:
listen to yourself. also ask the police why their story change. they have reviewed the tape, but if they tell you in their based on the tape they reviewed that the sky is green, would you believe or ask to see the tape for yourself.

Point me where the Police story changed

benalvino3:
i am not speculating, I don't buy the crap the tell us. Maybe it is a gay crime. till they release footage of what really happened. their stories make no sense so release the Cams from both the house and the body cam footage. you they try to make sense out of obvious nonsense and that is why i said you don't reason. Garbage in, garbage out... the stories so far are gabage

Of course, you are conditioned not to "buy the crap" by people who want to give you an alternative version of the world

The defendant lawyers have a right to view the cams if that is his defence . . . but it is not.

Police who would have reviewed the cams have charged with burglary, you are waiting for them to show you cam of Pelosi house so other mad men and Boogaloo boys can take note for next time. Why not go ask for cam of Femi Gbajabiamilla private residence

If it's in the security and Public interest to release cam, they will. Satisfying mad men's curiosity over their belief in the Police assessment does not count as that for now.

benalvino3:
stop making foolish excuses.

And stop making foolish speculation and refer to the court papers

A guy broke into your house at 2AM carrying a backpack dressed in black and saying he want to speak to your wife. i Guy you have never met... you will go and make him a coffee? Seriously ibime? He is not a vicious guy? why call the police then and walk back to the idiot? you see why i say you don't reason.

the guy is not a killer and Paul ended up in the ICU with life threatening injury. He is not a killer but he wanted to turture madam pelosi.

the Granny will also call the police, then walk into the kitchen and make tea for the police and an extra for the robbers.

Wait make them enter your grandmother house first, e go shock you. Na full swallow and Banga soup she go offer them. Old people no get speed to run oh, na persuasion be their weapon

benalvino3:
so you did not watch the Twitter video I included? the victim is at home and he has said what happened. Remember the police said someone opened the door? it was Pelosi that opened the door then walk back to meet the suspect. go and watch the video.

each time they say what happened, more questions pops up

Oga tender this in court. If Pelosi has no problem with his gay lover to walk to him, he has no reason to call the Police, simple. The Police said someone opened the door as they were pulling up. You suppose know that was Pelosi as he is the owner of the house and knows the keys, not the guy in a delusional state
.
My interpretation if you really want it, Pelosi knew the guy was disturbed and thought he had him under control with conversation. The guy did not present as a vicious guy, just a nutso, until he finally cracked him on the head. Even in the guys testimony, you can see he is not a killer, he just wanted to break Nancy kneecaps if she told him lies. Everything is in the court papers, but you want to speculate on what an 82 year old man will do as if he is.your mate. If robbers break into your grandmum house and wake her up, she will probably make them a cup of tea out of confusion
