The best bet is to buy share/stocks when it is very cheap and leave it for a long term for it to have accumulated bonuses and price appreciation.That is exactly what am doing,i've seen people become multi-millionaires through this means.

Thats the way to go, my bros.

IBB has become irrelevant for poltical leadership in Nigeria from now and forever.

FX Trading is very real, but beware of article vendors selling all sort of masquerades as robots. Look for a proven trader to train you and you will do well. Robots are like a drunken man in a china shop, it will ultimately destroy!

Maximum of 12m is ok.

If this can happen, then it means some desperate thieves are already having those machines stocked under their beds, waiting for the D-Day. Too bad.

Do't mind them. Experienced thieves will just come and clean-up the treasury because they know how to maniulate issues.

Why are they pardoning them piecemeal? Divide and rule tactics, I think. Rogues always know how to extricate themselves.

Hi my fellow Nigerians

Two weeks ago I had a discussion with a friend of mine. I told him we spend about 2/3 of our budget on overhead cost (in other words on the government) The budget for 2010 is about N4.6 trillion. Only N1.7trillion is claimed to be used directly on developing the country! The remainder is used on overhead. My friend was shocked. I had the same discussion with someone else and was told I was crying wolf in vain!

Last week the CBN gov. discovered that a quarter of the budget is used on Senators alone. As far as I am concerned about half of the budget is used on rulers in political offices and only 1/6 on civil servants! (This hasn't part hasn't been verified yet) Anyhow you look at this, it's really unfair. Two thirds of the budget used on less than 2% of the country and the remaining third on the whole country (of course including the 2%). It's saddening. At least there is some hope.

I am quite impressed to hear that GDP per capita is familiar economic term. I won't bother trying to emphasize how little our GDP is when compared to our population. But guess what, having a large population isn't supposed to be a curse, and the solution certainly isn't killing every other person!

The solution is quite simple in words, it could be simpler in action if we can utilize our limited resources on what's really important. For our GDP per capita to increase, we have to produce more, and we also have to engage more people in the production process. We need to turn our population to human resources. It is important at this point to know that the production process does not end until the product is in the hands of the consumers. It's not entirely an easy process, it requires more than textbook economics. I can't write all the solutions here (some crazy lying politicians might steal it to use in their manifesto), but there's definitely a way out of this mess we are in.

[b]Here are a few of my humble suggestions (believe me there are more)

1. The highest paid government official should earn 2.5 times the minimum wage

2. Senators should live in their constituencies, permanently. Their end of month take home pay should be no more than twice the minimum wage. A basic salary and allowances equal to the minimum wage.

3. Aspiring Senators must have laptops before they can contest. If they don't have then their constituencies should provide one for them. Meetings will be held via internet enabled video conferencing.

4. Governors must be based permanently in their states. They should not spend but invest their state budgetary allocations. To invest means to spend money on assets and not liabilities. Assets rarely reduce in value. This means by the end of the year the state should have earned more than it received thereby making more money for increased investing and raising the standards of living.

5. There should be mass employment on the part of the government. At least 5 million people should be employed over the space of 3 months initially so that over 60 million will be employed in the space of 2 years.[/b]

We have to find a way of making these suggestions laws. That is the real challenge. If they can be done then politics won't be a lucrative business anymore and we'd stop having square pegs in round holes!

We have to make these suggestions laws, that is going to be a step in the right direction. I don't think senators will want to help. Correct me if I'm wrong, I think we have to do this ourselves.

I'm very open to your comments, additions et al

Your suggestions are great!

These politicians have looted Nigeria dry.
Nigerians, and NLC in particular, should join Sanusi Lamido in crying out loud.

Why has NLC not commented on this JUMBO salaries/allowances of our [b]SIN[/b]ators? NLC should not allow my brainwaves to start concocting funny ideas o.

WOW! Unbelieveable!!!

Did they not say, the bill was going to be put to public debate, to hear from Nigerians before anything else or am I missing something here?
