CareerRe: I Have This Amazing Business Idea, But Scared To Quit My Job! by obstead200(m): 11:52pm On Apr 26, 2017
AimingIncognito:
Thanks everyone.

@eggcelent: I wish its a kind of business I could handover to a family member while I'm at work but unfortunately I have to oversee what's going on almost all the time, part of the business require some skills which I'm really good at.

I would appreciate more suggestions plsssss

*Modified* Yayyy, FP shocked
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR MEANINGFUL ADVICE. I really appreciate you fam.

As suggested by the majority, i think its better to finish the project first then use the income to finance the business.

Once again, thanks everyone kiss
my dear, no idea is entirely new. Unless u tell us this wonderful idea (or at least the line of business), u can't get a reliable advice. When u tell us, (even vaguely), the biz idea, u will realise that one or two pple have done something similar (of course not exactly the way u have it in ur head) and they wud be in a position to give u pointers that will help u decide whether to quit ur job and jump all in or to test the waters with toe first.
Mind u, forget what all those motivational fraudsters speakers say, idea is not 90% of what u need to become the next big thing. Frankly, if u ask me, idea is just less than 20% of what u need. The rest is hard work, attitude, network and prayer
EducationRe: Covenant University Suspends Final Year Students For Missing Easter Programme by obstead200(m): 7:55pm On Apr 25, 2017
himee:
Covenant University is as it again and this time I am not keeping calm!

Please how can a school suspend final year students for not attending "Easter Youth Alive" program" for ONE yearhuh Where is that done? Is it on their curriculum? How many units does this program carry?

These students have barley two(2) or three (3) months to go before project defense and graduation, have exams coming up this week and the school wakes up and decides to suspend them for one (1) year? And what happens to the fees paid for the year? In this economic recession, parents should cough out close to a Million Naira again to pay feeshuh

How many "churchy" schools have ever done this? None! Its only Covenant University! Is there no better punishment to give to these students than suspension for a WHOLE YEARhuh What culture are you trying to imbibe into these students? When they are suspended, will they go home and become better people? What are the lecturers and counselors in the school for? What are the various Bible studies or programs in the school for? Are they organized for just believers? Who did the church come for? Who did Jesus come for? Isn't it the sinners? What if after every sin we commit, our Almighty Father in Heaven decides to suspend us from this earth, where will we all be?

I should believe parents who take their children to such schools do so not just for academic purposes, but also for the spiritual aspect. Isn't that why they have a course titled "The Total Man?" Or what other reason is this course for, if not to build all students, particularly the erring ones to become better people? If not so, they should please enlighten us.

I think this time around, Covenant University has gone over board!

We will not keep silent again.

Please and please, we would appreciate if this is published. We have had enough of this!


LIAR!!!!




Covenant university has a very strong name to protect. They can't do this rubbish.
I am 150% sure that student was suspended for other more grievous offences

This has got to be the most realistic post on this thread.the fact that a "married man" makes a pass at u doesn't make him less of a person. Many families today live on the largesse and benevolence of these "monsters" called "married men".Its a survival option for many ladies and many date 'em but with wisdom, many have found joy and respite frm such relationships. Marrying a single man isnt a lifetime guarantee for mar ;Dital bliss.Be with whoever chimes ur bells right and not out of propriety.
I love ur very realistic way of looking at the issues. Frankly, I am not quick to condemn girls dating married men, as long as they understand the rules of engagement and know exactly what they are getting into, just catch fun, enjoy your time together, get whatever material benefit u hope to get and then, when the excitement wanes, move on with life.

I am not on the other hand saying that it is best to date married men. But like u said, to each his own.

Ehem, meanwhile I love ur profile picture. Can I date u? grin grin

He won’t leave his wife for you no matter how many promises he made to you, he wont leave her and come marry you. So you can start preparing yourself in ernest for a heartbreak when he moves on to someone else who is just as naive as you are.

And yes he’ll find someone sweeter,more shapelier and better than you ever are.

pity you, he goes home to his wife, and you would go home wishing it had lasted forever

U are soooo on point. Any girl that wishes to date married men shud just have it in her mind that the only thing she stands to gain is money. She won't take over the man, except she uses jazz

Don't want No wife crying on my head at midnight to God because i took her hubby.. grin grin grin
I ain't worth her tears.
@ the bolded: u see, that is where u are wrong. 95% of married men who sleep around will NEVER leave their wife to marry that side chick. To them, that side chick is just a plaything that made herself available to be used to ease tension and make him feel good as a man. U know.......massage his ego because of his ability to conquer any woman of his choice, That is all. They still love their wife or at least respect their marriage. So if that is ur fear, forget it. 95% of the time, u are not taking anyone's husband, the men are simply catching fun, u are free to catch urs too if u are so inclined, or at least make them pay for catching fun with u.
CareerRe: 5 Reasons Why You Should Write ICAN Instead Of ACCA by obstead200(m): 7:05pm On Apr 16, 2017
optimusmind:
There have been much discussion on which professional qualifications a person seeking a career path in accounting and finance should have.
While the ACCA is an international body with more recognition, there are certain reasons while one may chose to write ICAN over ACCA.
I hope to shed some light why it may be better to write ICAN instead ACCA.

1. Cost of examination.
The ACCA exams has always been more expensive than the ICAN exams, however with the recent increase in Dollars against naira, the fee is even higher than ever.
Currently the average price per course is £80 oughly N35000 and you may have to write up-to 3 courses per diet if you want to finish on time. ICAN, the maximum you'd ever pay is N70,000 and that is for the maximum number of courses ( 6 courses),other times you'd pay N40,000 to N55000 for all your courses. So if you have a slim budget, it may be in your advantage to write the ICAN exams.

2. Availability of Resources
For the ACCA exams, the resources at your disposal is someworth limited. Firstly, only few tuition houses are accredited to prepare students for the exams. Also, the study material has to be purchased online and paid for in pounds, another additional cost. For ICAN however, the resources needed are readily available online and offline. And there are a lot of books for purchase to make studies easier.

3. Statutory recognition.
In Nigeria presently, only ICAN and ANAN has been given the charter to audit reports. So despite having the ACCA qualification, you still cannot sign and approve financial statements unless you are a member of ICAN, which would mean you coming back to write the ICAN exams. I know there are a lot of exemptions. However, isn't it double cost if you still come back and pay for the same ICAN exams again? The basic advantage of ACCA is the recognition in the private sector. But in term of statutory audit, or even public sector, you still need ICAN to climb higher

4. Easier to pass
It is generally easier to sit for and pass ICAN. It is common to see individuals who seat for the ICAN exams and pass every thing in one sitting. Truth be told, ACCA is setting the standard which ICAN follow. So if your goal is to become a chartered accountant as soon as possible with lesser stress you are better of writing ICAN instead of ACCA.

5. Patriotism
We always complain our county is bad and not progressing, yet we constantly leave our home made things and go for foreign ones. These two bodies are serving the same purpose. Therefore, there's no need leaving the one of our mother land for preference for a foreign body. It pays to be patriotic and promote the affairs of our own country.

Conclusion
With the harmonization of accounting standard and Nigeria adopting IFRS, there is no difference between the two bodies. Basically they have Very similar course outline cutting through virtually the same area. The gap between the two bodies have greatly been closed. Also, ICAN is an international qualification and recognized in a lot of other countries.

Good luck in your career
This is the biggest bullshit I have read online in a long time. ICAN easier to pass huh? What nonsense!!! The OP shud not compare his mediocre self to other pple.
Both ICAN and ACCA are not easy to pass. If u are not very very very prepared and very determined, u are going no where. I have ICAN, but if I have the funds to spare, I will jump on an opportunity to write ACCA.

The only thing that makes sense in this writeup is that ACCA is expensive. That's all. Every other submission here is pure rubbish.
AgricultureRe: Xmas Broiler Broading In Pictures by obstead200(m): 12:25am On Apr 15, 2017
Turks:
Mr Neo.

Well said. Your emphasis on stampede is what I don't understand. What's the number one cause of stampede?

Lighting; among other things.

If a brood isn't well heated, the birds would cluster in order to generate body heat thereby trampling on the weak/smaller ones. A window can be left open during brooding if the temperature of the brooder is just right. The opened window won't have any negative effect on the chicks, it'll help regulate the temperature as well keep the brooder oxygenated.

I've visited AMO farms and majority of their brooding pens are automated. Very little human input. You can't compare an automated environment with the 'backyard poultry' we run out here. They brood in ten of thousands.
from my experience, DOC don't need heat that much after the 1st 7 days. I do open my brooding house during the day after the first 7 days and shut it at night.
The primary cause of stampede is poor lighting, NOT COLD.
However an ideal brooding house shud be designed to ALWAYS let in snipets of air (maybe even WIND) at a level above the height of the chicks, preferably at the roof level. This is aside from Windows that can remain closed for the first 7 to 10 days and then opened for some hours during the day from the 10th to 21st days

CrimeRe: Police Arrest Driver For Stealing Madam’s Used Clothes For Wife by obstead200(m): 1:47am On Mar 21, 2017
eyinjuege:
I doubt they're used clothes as she said the clothes belong to her company- collectible occasions, probably a boutique shop.
The clothes are most likely expensive, and her shop/business is likely the only means of survival for her family as she's a widow.
If a trusted employee would want to ruin her business/means of livelihood, he deserves to be charged to court for theft.
If they were used clothes, I doubt she would bother to report the theft unless they were second hand clothes for sale ( her shop may be a second hand clothes shop)
@the bolded.
U really don't know human nature, especially women. Even in the midst of riches, a wicked heart is a wicked heart.

And yes, they are used clothes which the complainant wears or used to wear. That is why she recognized the clothes in the first place.

Can't believe half the comments are supporting this thief, just because his boss decided to do the right thing and take him to court. If he took to jungle justice nko.
my dear,
No one is supporting a thief. Just that some cases are not worth the time and effort to be spent pursuing them. U will look good in the eyes of God and men if u just let such cases go. Pursuing them amounts to pettiness. Pettiness is a very ugly habit.
These are used clothes. Just pay off the driver and sack him. That is enough punish for the level of crime committed.
Do u really think the judge in this case is not amused and irritated that someone could be so petty as to bring such a case against a servant that have served for years?

The OP is just a desperate blogger. Typed a lot of words and made no sense. He did not even answer his own question.
There is a simple reason why alphabets in a keyboard are not serially arranged.
Research into words frequently typed in English language and the typing patterns of pple revealed that some keys which are used often will be better accessed if they are placed in a certain proximity and a certain angle to the typing fingers. That solely influence the arrangement of letters on the keyboard. Simple!!!


If u are a very skilled in typing the professional (recommended) way, u will know what am saying is correct.
