Blaming him all day doesn't change anything. See it as a motivation, learn from his mistakes, work hard and smart so you don't end up just like him.

Let's be frank , that 1.2M in 2017 is valuable than 8M today.

In 2017, you could buy a tokunbu 2005 Corolla and 100 bags of cement with 1.2M.

Can you buy a Corolla and 100 bags of cement with 8M today?
Let's argue with facts and not sentiments please. First and foremost how did you come to the conclusion that 1.2M in 2017 is more valuable than 8M today?

If I had bought a 2005 Corolla and 100 bags of cement in 2017 for 1.2M, what would have been their total worth today, how much profit would I have made, if I wanted to sell them today?

Like seriously are you telling me that a man earning ₦1.2m annually or monthly in 2017, would have lived a more comfortable life than a man earning ₦8M today? Backup your claims with verifiable facts please, I await your response.

You can see that you are so ignorant that you are ignorant of your ignorance.
You just said there was a revolution because peasants and low income earners were landless and the elites owned almost all the land, isn't that what is happening globally? Is land ownership the same as 30years lease? Nigeria is a nation that destroys the thinking faculties of her citizens.. I don't know if it's the pure water or mama put but something is wrong with the way you reason.
I am educating you and you are busy forming guru.. talking about you have friends and embarrassing ones self you just validated my point: Private land ownership is unsustainable. It's can't go on for much longer. And another question that you need to ponder upon; are we at war?

But ofc an ignoramus will never change because ignorance is bliss. You prefer to stay in your comfort zone rather than learn something new, you can't even connect dot. You will come now and say something silly mtchew
So if we were at war your floating house will not be destroyed? Do people still build houses in same China where private land ownership is banned?

China banning private ownership of lands doesn't still stop elites from controlling and having huge portions of lands. The elites still lease the best locations of lands, control development rights, influence allocation decisions, they still win at the end of the day, because the poor peasants still don't have access to these lands. They can only have access through same elites. The only advantage is the fact that the government can reclaim possession of the land, it doesn't shield the poor and peasant. This shouldn't be too much for you to understand if you can harness just 0.1% power of the brain.

Even though the Nigeria government doesn't ban land ownership, there are government reserved areas. People buy these lands for private and personal use, due to lack of strong institutions, corruption, etc.

Get this into your head, Private land ownership in China was not banned because it was economically unsustainable. It was banned for political, historical, and control reasons. People still build and lead houses in China. The elites still indirectly dictate who can lease a land.


Talking about education, I recommend showing this thread to your elders or your parents, and if they are being honest with you they will tell you who is educating who between the 2 of us.


You argue ignorantly without direction. Empty vessels they say make the loudest noise, you are just ranting incoherently. My sympathy to the man and woman who where happy that fateful day that a child was born. Like I will always say life is cruel and unfair, may God console them.

Unfortunately, you are a poor real estate agent looking for 10% commission and you grew up in Nigeria, that is a death sentence on its own. Travel and see the world from outside. Me and you can't even argue, I will educate you only if you are open to learning.
But since you think you are clever, why has China banned private ownership of land if land acquisition by private individuals and corporations is sustainable?

Answer this logical and I will bow to you as superior.
Ogbeni you are a deluded conspiracy theorist.
China did not ban ownership of land because Realestate investment is bad.

There was a time China had extreme landlord exploitation. Peasants and low income earners were landless a few elites owned most of the lands. This led to massive inequality, revolts, and civil war. So after the communist revolution land ownership was abolished to prevent a return of feudal landlord power and exploitation. They wanted a centralised power, and prevented foreigners from owning and hoarding lands. People still lease lands for 30 - 70 years in China till date. China still has one of the largest real estate markets on earth. And here you are calling real estate a bad investment.

You are sounding very myopic, childish, and incoherent. For your information I'm not a real estate agent, but I'm better of being one instead of being a broke conspiracy theorist who doesn't know where his next meal will come from.

Educate yourself, I have friends and colleagues like you, who wants to educate others, but they only ended up embarrassing themselves. They want to teach others how to make wealth, but their own account balance is showing 0. You're embarrassing yourself, if you don't know.

Now that China has been able to buy a substantial amount of Nigerian land and natural resources nko?

You don't know it, but you are threading on a dangerous and unsustainable path. Have you heard of the Chinese mining Federation of Nigeria?
It's not bad, I'm just bringing it to your attention.
Your post lacks direction, you are just shifting goal post up and down. Foreign investors are not charity organisation, every investors aim is to secure his capital and make profits.

The danger is not Chinese mining Federation of Nigeria, but Nigeria's governance herself which is usually characterised by corruption, poor monitoring, policy inconsistency and lack of local capacity.

With all said and done, can you please check the title of your thread? You are sounding very incoherent.

Well, what if everyone on earth owns some land?
Are you aware that human wants are insatiable? Even if everyone own some land, some will still want more, and even more, a good case study is Nigeria politicians. Land remains an asset, take it or leave it.

Every investment have it's cons and pros. Yes you can lose your lands during wars, or if the government has interest in the land. But that doesn't make real estate necessarily a bad investment. A land I bought for #1.2M in 2017, is currently being priced for ₦8M but I won't sell.

Forgive and move on. Some of the reasons I remain proud of my parents. Even though they were not rich, food, clothing, education were nessecities we never lacked.
They made me it look like giving us the best was a debt they owed to me and my siblings. Unfortunately I lost them so early in life. Better thing no dey ever last, rest on mum and dad, I still prefer you as my parents if there is a next life.

It rained in my area at about 6PM last week. We were all happy, no more excessive heat and dust for that day. But by 10AM the following day we were back to default dry seasons settings. It felt as if it hadn't rained for years. The sun was hot and direct as if it had grudges against us, dust everywhere, no visible signs that it rained 16 hours ago.

It's been a while, how is it going bro? I've been steadily exploiting a weekly reload bonus offer on a local bookie. Although I'm making some profits, but I'm just scared, they might notice me one day given their horrible online reviews. Do you have any tips ? Any update on bet365? I intend creating accounts there, thank you very much.

There's war in Israel too but people are still going about their lives.

Go to the Russian embassy in Nigeria and see how crowded the place is.

Sit down in your house and listen to CNN, don't move around, okay?.
Easy bro, you sounded pained and frustrated. Believe you me, this thing is having a huge toll on your mental health.

Live scores apps sends and receives tiny text bits of data, unlike DSTV that transmits huge bits of live video and audio. Anything video transmission is relatively slow and heavy compared to texts, or even audio. Compare your audio WhatsApp chats to video chats, and you will notice differences.

That is correct and I'm the business owner and also I'm not seeking for investors I'm only trying to get into a discussion here.
Seeking investors is very risky because any little fall then you will be tagged a scam
Congratulations in advance, because you've found a business that can give you 5% profit daily, as you should be a multi billionaire by October this year. You can do it with just #10k. By following these easy 3 steps:

1) Start with ₦10k if you don't have it, borrow from the countless loan apps around.
2) Continue compounding your daily profits, and by month 3, you'll have over ₦850k
3) Pay the loan app, and continue compounding or you can withdraw half of your profits. Then continue compounding the remaining part.

If you can follow these 3 steps by December this year, You'll be on Forbes front pages and our national daily with headlines like.
"The nairalander who flipped ₦10k to Billions in less than a year", "The young Nigerian who is about to dethrone Dangote, from his throne of Africa's richest man"

Once again a big congratulations to you grin grin grin
