This is ridiculously STOOPID. It is an embarassment to all Nigerians that this kind of corruption even takes place.

N554 m to cut grass, 100m to wash car and snake swallowing billions. The people who are carry out this sort of corruption are Dumba.zz mofos.

SportsRe: Joshua, Fury To Earn $100 Million Each In Heavyweight Showdown by koning: 1:49pm On Jan 16, 2021
"With Saudi Arabia leading the way, and Singapore, Dubai, Qatar and China all staking their claims, Arum has revealed that a location has been decided, with both fighters set to earn a mammoth $100million (£73m) each, regardless of the result in the ring."




I do not like this clause. Win or lose, each gets $100m. There will be no motivation to go for a knock out. All that talk of being undisputed and reputation is NOT enough motivation in my opinion.

The split should have been $100m for the winner and $80 to 85m for the loser. But they start the fight as equals.
WE NEED AND WANT TO SEE A KNOCKOUT. Money is the greatest motivator.

Better still, If they deposit N10m in an interest yeilding account. End of the month, the account yeilded 0 interest. Will they then accept 0 capital as deposit?. Since N10m x 0 =0.

EducationRe: Why Is Any Number Multiplied By Zero Equals To Zero? by koning: 10:50pm On Jan 14, 2021
studentofTruth:
It is not. See this explanation:

Back to your question, I will attempt to explain it using Einstein's general relativity theory. "Everything is relative to something else." In the case of anything multiplied by zero giving a product of zero, that "zero" product is relative to the action and not the entities multiplied — the product being zero doesn't mean that the non-zero entity vanished.

Let me explain with your oranges example:
First scenario (10x0 = 0): You have 10 oranges to give out. The action here is "to give out 10 oranges." To complete this action, there must be 10 oranges to give out and someone or something to give them to. In this case, you have the 10 oranges, but there's nobody/nothing to give the oranges. Relative to the intended action — giving out 10 oranges — you have given out zero oranges. However, it does not mean that the entity (10 oranges) vanished. In other words, the fact that the second entity needed to complete the action is not there (value: 0) doesn't mean that the first entity (10 oranges) has vanished. It only means that the action cannot be carried out (value: 0).

To put it as an equation:

Entity1(Present) x Entity2(Absent) = Action(Absent)

Second scenario (0x10 = 0): You want to give out oranges to 10 persons. The action is "to give out oranges to 10 persons." To complete the action, you must have both entities — the oranges to give out and the 10 persons you will give the oranges. But you have no (zero) oranges, so the action cannot be carried out. Relative to the action — giving out oranges — you have done nothing (zero oranges given out). However, this doesn't mean that the 10 persons vanished because there were no oranges. In other words, the fact that the other entity needed to complete the action is not there (value: 0) doesn't mean that the second entity (10 persons) has vanished. It only means that the action cannot be carried out (value: 0).

To put it as an equation:

Entity1(Absent) x Entity2(Present) = Action(Absent)


The point I'm making is that, using general relativity theory, the product of any multiplication with zero relative to the action and not the entities in the multiplication. The absence of any of the entities means that the action cannot be carried out, but the other entities don't cease to exit.

So, even in cases of 10x2x0 = 0, you can extend this logic to explain it.

An example of everyday application of this can be seen in anything. If there's no patient to be operated, the surgeon carries out no surgery, but it doesn't mean that the doctor or his surgical skills have vanished.
If a fund manager sees no good opportunity to invest in, no investment happens, but that doesn't mean that the fund manager or the cash has vanished. This is why cash is a component of any portfolio — it stays there waiting for the right opportunity to go make you more money.
Gbamsolutely. We rest our case. This is what Op needed to be explained.
FamilyRe: My Ex Said Her Son Is Mine - Please Advise by koning: 6:33pm On Jan 14, 2021
charles009:
Good people of nairaland,
Everything you are about to read is not fiction but certain reality.

At the heat of this DNA wahala, a married Ex called me on 6th of Jan to notify me that her son is mine and not her husbands. I remember vividly a certain Saturday in 2015, when we argued intensely over the paternity of the child during her pregnancy. She insisted it was her boyfriends, make una fear women. She swore she was single. Our calculations showed she was ovulating while we had some encounters. She proceeded to block me on all social media platforms and 2 months later, her friend informed me of her wedding.


The issue here is that I am married with two kids and expecting another, she told me her husband lost his job early 2018 and it has been a very rough patch for her family. she says she wants a divorce.

I asked for the boys pictures and it put instant tears to my eyes. Showed a few friends and the resemblance is striking so they said. The most painful of all, he looks not properly looked after.

I am doing fairly OK now, I wouldn't wanna to see my blood suffer, if you were in my shoes how would you handle this. My wife would not want to hear of another child...

Mature advise please...
Uncannily familiar. I was in same such situation 13 years ago. It's amicably resolved now. Was not easy though.
TravelRe: Nigerian Man Begs To Be Deported After 5 Years In Italy/Germany (Video) by koning: 6:29pm On Jan 14, 2021
He is probably a bus conductor, mechanic or Agbero from Ondo that went through the desert to Italy. Life in Europe can be hellish if you have no papers.

European govts are very mean nowadays. They will never waste their money to deport him. They will rather leave him to die in the cold, then cremate his body. Well, i cannot understand what he's saying. NdiOfe should come to his assitance.

In my opinion 0 is emptiness, vacuum, nothing, zilch. Does not exist. That's why that traditional way of multiplication is giving the Op and Me something to ponder about.

"Then you didn't multiply them naa". Yes, I agree I didn't and I keep my cars, but you're saying I now have zero cars because of a failed attempt at multiplying them.
Brilliant analysis. That is the crux of the matter. You multiplied it by nothing. And now they say " You lost everything"

Galileo(not sure about the spelling) was beheaded because he said the Earth was round, NOT flat. Centuries later everybody agrees that the Earth is actually round. It takes one man.

TheGoodJoe:
Think of Product.

If you have 100 cows, you have 100 cows. If they don't produce any milk, it is zero product. Zero milk. As you get that, you understand.

If you have no money to share. Even if you have a good mind to share money to 10,000 people, you can only produce zero money.

Multiplication is about finding the PRODUCT.
What you wrote is absurd. I will not go into detail. Just to let you know that the product should be Calf/Cow. NOT milk. Read what you wrote and think harder.

What a pity!. You are now making it an African issue. This hypothesis was brought to us by the white man. The same way they told us that Jesus is a White man with long beard and that we all must accept and worship him.

Op is just trying to question some the things we were thaught at British styled education.

He isn't any genius,
He just couldn't think right.
Use your brain properly. Nobody is talking about what you have, but the product of what you have.
You have #100, and you didn't do anything to it, you still have #100, but the product is 0, because nothing has been added to it. People can't just think smart.
Can you please explain the concept of "BREAKING EVEN" in business. I am not an accountant, but Op is a thinking man. I would not say a genius, but he posed a thinking man's question. Many companies are happy to break even for years. Which practically means that they added 0 to the 1000 they invested, but they still have the 1000.
Hence the question by Op. Why can't 1000 x 0 = 1000.
EducationRe: Why Is Any Number Multiplied By Zero Equals To Zero? by koning: 1:35pm On Jan 14, 2021
@BobFischer is not asking why is 0 x 100 = 0.
But why is 100 x 0 =0.


I get his drift. If you already have 100 and multiply it with nothing, shouldn't you still have your 100.


Let's all ponder about that.
EducationRe: Why Is Any Number Multiplied By Zero Equals To Zero? by koning: 1:29pm On Jan 14, 2021
TheGoodJoe:

If you have 100 oranges on the table and you have not produced out of it, then it is zero product.

The oranges is not the result but a part of it. The multiplication has to do with an action.

If you look at the multiplication as an action, you will get why it is zero. Same goes for addition.

You have 100 Oranges in the farm and you plant them to reproduce. If they reproduce ten times their number, it is one thousand.

If they don't reproduce, how many products do they have, zero.

Work with product instead of multiplication.


I believe this answers your question.
No. You have not. The Op posed a thinking man's problem. You are all still responding the same way we were all thought to respond from birth.

Now, if the 100 oranges do not reproduce, but remain just 100. Why will you still have Zero and not the 100 you already had angry

Guys the guy is right, 3 million naira when converted to dollars or Euros is nothing, I have lived in Europe for 4 years and I can tell u the easiest Visa and the best Visa is students visa, some European countries don't allow full time students to work, apart from that, these cheap countries that u can live with that amount has Language obstacles in terms of work, and you said you have a wife here so I believe starting small thing here with that amount is better than abroad. Nigerians please don't always think that money grows on trees in abroad. Doing a good businesses where people can patronize you without any racist attribute matters alot
To make matters worse, the guy is even in his late 30s. The only age group i would encourage to travel to Europe and try their luck are those under 25yrs. The reason is obvious.

Look at this woman. If you see her strugling on the street, you will assume her mind is on how to make money & better hers & her kids lives but No. Its not d case. Her mind is on how she can get home & bend over to be bleeped like a LovePeddler. Same with her ambitionless husband. She has finished fucking now but cannot fend for herself. She & her husband are mad.

Never travelled out before.
I am in my late 30s

Thanks
Let me assume that you are 38 years, married and can boast of N3m cash money in Nigeria. But, you plan to leave your stable life in Nigeria to move to Europe?!!!. I am done advising people like you here NOT to travel out. Please go to all those shit countries being mentioned here. Countries that don't even speak any language you know.

You will give a situation report to us when you are 50 years old. Because by the time you find your feet in poland, Lithuania or Finland, you would be 50 with less than N3m to your name.

Is Igala really a tribe?. In my opinion, Igala is just another Igbo subgroup. A clan in Igboland. Calling Igala a tribe is like calling Abiriba a tribe.
