@jajad: this:

#Consolidate user detail queries
def userDetails(email):
    results = runQuery("select id, availablenaira,nairabalance,dollarbalance from x_user where email =%s;", (email,))
    rr = {}
    rr["id"] = results[0][0]
    rr["availablenaira"] = results[0][1]
    rr["nairabalance"] = results[0][2]
    rr["dollarbalance"] = results[0][3]
    return rr

Is equivalent to:

#Consolidate user detail queries
def userDetails(email):
    return runQuery("select id, availablenaira,nairabalance,dollarbalance from x_user where email =%s;", (email,))[0]

Not really. Your function returns a list e.g. (1, Decimal('84505353.8900'), Decimal('84528775.0000'), Decimal('30454.2300')).
The first one returns a dictionary e.g. {'dollarbalance': Decimal('30454.2300'), 'id': 1, 'availablenaira': Decimal('84505353.8900'), 'nairabalance': Decimal('84528775.0000')}
I thought it was better to use userDetails()["dollarbalance"] than userDetails()[3].

u.dollarbalance would be cleanest though and hopefully that's where I'm headed

Still a long way to go . But here goes.

That person is likely a pirated I.D or something. The writing style is a tad too familiar for a newbie.

Na wa o, so upon all the mouth you guys don make, nobody fit chest out like King Kong, code the shi.t?

Pirated I.D? And when you say newbie do you mean to nairaland or to Python web programming?
Abeg Seun leave the contest open o. I could use the money. Monday and Tuesday are public holidays. I'm surprised more people aren't attempting it though. It would be nice to have someone to share ideas with.

Saw it late (Friday night). Working on it. Maybe I'll win all the money since I'm the only one.
It's an interesting project.
pymysql had some issues with the Decimal field in MySQL 5.5 and I had to change some code in there. Will send a git repo link tomorrow (I hope).
