InvestmentRe: 10 Questions For MMM Subscribers (Mavrodians) by Martartins(m): 5:30pm On Dec 23, 2016
maclatunji:
The following are my questions to the subscribers to MMM popularly called Mavrodians.

1. Where do you think the money you are collecting through MMM is coming from?

MMM claims not to be a business and not an investment, so where do you think the 30% return which excites you so much is coming from?

2. Do you know what a Ponzi scheme is?

I have to ask this question because of those who defend MMM with the claim that they have made money from it. To be the clear, a minority will make money from Ponzi schemes being the early adopters that help to create the exponential growth. However, the latter subscribers are the ones that lose greatly. If you understand this, you will not present this argument as evidence for MMM not being a fraud.

3. Where did you get the money you invested in MMM from?

You could not use that money in any legitimate business?

I ask this question because many MMM subscribers behave as if they were incapable of earning money before MMM came.

4. Is it that you don’t understand that governments across the world are duty-bound not to allow a Ponzi scheme started by an ex-convict that has scammed people across the world operate freely within their countries?

This one is self-explanatory, Sergey Mavrodi the main brain behind MMM is an ex-convict. He got convicted for scamming Russians with a precursor scheme to MMM.

5. Explain how MMM is a revolutionary idea that commercial banking should be afraid of?

MMM subcribers are quick to tag banks as stealing from their customers while MMM is the solution for the masses. Curiously enough, they pay into each other’s bank accounts; curious to say the least.

6. Do you understand that wealth is created based on the value you create not through this system operated by a few people to rob people of their money while leaving them in the lurch?

Let us say all of us joined MMM, where would productive output come from?

7. Did you anticipate that your ‘investment’ (sorry, your ‘Mavros’) could be frozen without you having any say on what happens next?

I am sure many ‘Mavrodians’ did not expect this December debacle, but we are here.

8. Do you agree that as a promoter of the scheme, you are quite dubious because you are seeking to reap bountifully at the expense of others when the scheme crashes?

Note I wrote ‘when’ not ‘if’

9. Do you not worry that you could have a hand in the death or grievous harm happening to people who could lose money from MMM and become suicidal?

We already have reports of some people taking poison because their money got frozen this December.

10. Do you understand that you are effectively using time that you could use for productive activity to promote a questionable scheme at best?

If you understand that time lost is irrecoverable, why waste it?

Your answers and feedback are quite welcome.

The simple answer to your questions are; EVERYBODY KNOWS MMM IS BACKED BY GOOGLE, WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT , IT DOESNT MATTER. THE 30% COULD HAVE BEEN GOTTEN FROM A WHOLE LOT OF SOURCES ON MMM, BUT YOU WONT KNOW BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT IN THE SYSTEM.

YOU TALKED ABOUT PONZI SCHEME WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING THE FACT THAT PONZI SCHEMES NEED NEW ENTRANTS TO SUCCEED, MMM DOESNT.

BANKS WILL ALWAYS SERVE THEIR PURPOSE BECAUSE MMM DOESNT USE A CENTRAL ACCOUNT LIKE MOST PONZI SCHEMES.


PROVIDED THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE PH AND GH ON MMM, THE SYSTEM WILL BE FINE. IT IS PEOPLE LIKE YOU RATHER THAT BAD-MOUTH THE SYSTEM.


TO BE FRANK I THINK YOU HAVENT DONE YOUR RESEARCH ON MMM BEFORE WRITING THIS. I SAY THIS BECAUSE, AM IN THE SYSTEM

MMM WILL CRASH DEFINITATLY BUT IT WILL ONLY BE BECAUSE IT WIL PUT BANKS INTO DISTRESS. SEIZE THE OPPORTUNITY WHILE IT LAST.

CultureThe Rise Of Abuja’s Female Cabbies by Martartins(op): 3:13am On Dec 22, 2016
Wunmi won’t show her face yet, but she is one of a growing number of women venturing into jobs previously thought the preserve of males


When Wunmi (not her full name) went broke, she did something her friends didn’t believe or approve. She jumped into her car and allowed herself to be waved down for lifts.
Wunmi began “cab driving” with her Corolla. She is part of a growing trend: Women pushing the boundaries to earn income.

“I was looking at my car, every month servicing it, and it got up to the point where I didn’t have money to service it,” Wunmi said.

“Instead of dying of hunger, I said, let me just help myself...use what I have to earn a living.”

“At least now I have food to eat. When I am going home, I buy tomatoes, peppers and cook something to eat. And I am saving money to send home to my mum. She is diabetic.”

A graduate of French language, Wunmi worked as an interpreter helping French speakers get along with proceedings in English language. But interpretation jobs were around only when there are conferences. She needed something regular.

She didn’t have a job, she had been home since July without work, and no job offer was coming up, Wunmi recalls.

The idea for a “kabu-kabu” slowly crept into her head as she watched her car. Her friends wouldn’t hear her idea out.

“My friends discouraged me from day one. They said, ‘God forbid, how can you use your car for ‘kabu kabu,’” she recalled.

“The first day I listened to them but when I became very hungry, so hungry I had a sore in my stomach, I told my sister, ‘I’m hungry, I don’t have any money’. I just took my car and started calling people. People responded and entered.”

That’s how her business started. She followed up by introducing herself to plazas and leaving behind calling cards with her contacts.

She works, picking up and dropping off passengers through the streets of Abuja for 11 hours a day: from as early as 6am and ending her day before dark to stay safe.

“I have had plenty reactions, some negative, some positive,” she said. Her parents still don’t know what she does for a living and are better off not knowing where she gets their regular allowance.

“I once picked a passenger for a drop service. We bargained N500 and the man, at the end of the ride, gave me N2,000. He said he couldn’t believe I could have the courage,” Wunmi remembers.

She is glad she didn’t get into prostitution, and is instead on a job she can do in broad daylight with some dignity.

“This is new Nigeria. I have to humble myself and do something different from what I planned for my life,” Wummi quipped.

Still On The Hike On Data Prices

I keep saying it , that the government of this country does not want its citizenry to be learned. If not, how can one really explain the hike on data prices when the NCC should be looking for ways to reduce it. They have frustrated education to the extent that the common ma can no longer send their kids to school, now they want to suppress our right to freedom of association using the internet since they could not pass the social media bill.


The effect of the hike would have been disastrous , owing to the fact that a lot of our libraries are either dilapidated or struggling to function properly. Where do we go to read since it was said Nigerians no longer read books; the internet of course. So what happens if their is a hike on prices of data? The common man is blinded, and like a leper he is lead to fall into a deep hole he will not be able to return.


This is the reason everybody should take to the street and protest for the reduction of data price, because in the modern world we live in, a lot of things are done through the internet. It is also one of the biggest employer of labour considering the fact that, with this recession biting hard, a lot of Nigerians have diversified to online businesses. What happens if data price is hiked? a lot of them will close shop.

This is also thanking the 8th national assembly for doing the needful. The first time they have actually stood up for Nigerians since assuming office.

What is the point of being a woman if you cant do what other women do. Should men share your responsibility to conceive as well. You either know how to do it or not. If you marry a man who does and is willing to help fine.

InvestmentWhy MMM Will Fail by Martartins(op): 9:39am On Nov 23, 2016
MMM like many ponzi and pyramid schemes, thrive on participants paying into a single account from where the scheme is impacted and fraud takes places. But since changing to the current format of providing help (PH) and getting help(GH), MMM have produced a model that is too good to stand the test of time. Also with the 30% interest received for participant who provided help in 30days is mouth watering.


People like me have always tried to find where the 30% interest is coming from, only to be told it stirs from traffic to the site, monetized MMM videos on youtube, and the use of google products by guilders etc. This makes the interest MMM is paying " free money ."



The business model is very good, i mean so good that will draw a lot of people to withdraw their money in the bank and put them in MMM. No wonder the precocious climb in the past year for MMM, already one of the most visited site in Nigeria in the past 12 months.



Remember i said the model is so good, yes it is, until the bubble will burst. MMM has a very important flaw, which is, "the economy." The world depend on the system of borrowers and lenders. Those with excess money save them so that those in the productive sector can use them in our economy to provide jobs and make the world a better place. If everybody withdraws there money in their bank account and put it in MMM, the economy will crash. No government wants that. In fact the economy needs to be very liquid so that people don't fall into depression. Which is why the url and MMM in general will be disbanded in Nigeria.


If MMM continues with the 30% interest rate, consumption pattern will only grow because lets face it, not everybody can be an investor. it is not about having the money, it is about what you do with it that matters.
