obamartins:
Thousands are out there with 1st class and 2.1 with no clear cut direction. My brother, it's not about grade, things and times have changed. Things that normally put food on the table in the 70s, 80s and even in the 90s have evolved. Gone are the days when you are told go to school, get a good grade and Pronto! You are out of poverty. It doesn't work anymore. The chances are getting slimmer by the day.

Artisans and technicians are doing very well while graduates who refused to think outside the box with their 1st class and 2.1 cannot even feed. Before you question what I graduated with, I will tell you. I graduated with a 2.1, computer science, my certificate is gathering dust because most of the things I know today, I learn on the street and these skills are paying my bills. So move out of that "go to school, get a good grade, that is the only way out of poverty" mentality, nothing is guaranteed anymore. A smart person that left school with a pass is more likely to succeed than someone with a 1st class or 2.1. Because he learns early not to depend on his certificate, while those with good grades will allow it "shack" them, but before they realize that the certificate is now a piece of tissue paper, the guy with the pass or third class has learn a skill and moved on with life.

So nobody should be carried away by 1st class or 2.1. Out there, it's a rat race and only the smart survives coupled with God's grace. You see them falling into depression every now and then because their expectation is a variance with the reality on ground.

RomanceWARNING: 10 Types Of Women You Should Never Marry by olorunthobby(op): 5:54pm On Oct 17, 2017
While we can all agree that nobody is perfect, there are actually a few things that would adversely affect a relationship if a man chooses to partner with a woman with some not-so-great attributes.
10 kinds of woman a man should think twice about making a wife.
1. The Bitter Woman:
You know that woman that always seems to be angry at the menfolk all the time? Perhaps she has had her heart broken one too many times, but this woman is always bashing on men and talking about how they are no-good or useless. A man might not want to settle down with someone so bitter as it is guaranteed that when the opportunity arises, she would hurl hurtful insults and intense, hateful words his way due to all her unresolved anger.
2. The Selfish Woman:
If you want a happy home and a partner that wants your happiness as well as hers, then you should steer clear of the selfish woman. A woman who is determined to make sure she always comes first would not be able to build a cheerful and loving home with you.
3. The Materialistic Woman:
A woman obsessed with material things would certainly not make the best wife. If all she cares about are material possession over family, faith and spiritual fulfillment, then she will not make the best partner.
4. The Flirty Woman:
Are you attracted to that woman that always seems to flirt with one person or another? She flirts like a butterfly from one man to another and makes all men feel like she is interested in them. Well, beware, because a habit like that might be hard to break after marriage and you would not want to start hearing that your wife has had flirty conversations with all the men in the neighbourhood.
5. The Party Freak:
She is invited to every party and attends them all. She is always dressed in the most flashy clothes and is the ultimate party girl. She lives for the next big gathering and cannot say no to an invitation. Such woman might not be the type to settle down in a marriage.
6. The Spoilt-Brat:
A woman who grew up having everything handed to her and has never had the experience of actually working for something is unlikely to make the best wife. No matter how much you might be willing to provide her with the kind of lifestyle she grew up with, remember, marriage comes with kids and kids require sacrifice. If she has never had to work or make sacrifices for anything in her life, it is unlikely that she would start now.
7. The Attention Seeker:
While some women naturally like attention, when it becomes an obsession, then it is not a good idea. A good husband makes sure he has time for his wife, but this cannot happen 100percent of the time so a good wife should understand that.
8. The Gossip:
Does she always seem to never mind her own business? Is she always focused on what someone else is doing or how someone else is living their life? Then you do not need this kind of woman as a wife. A man needs someone that would build a home with him and this requires some focus on her own plans and her own life. If she is too busy minding someone else's business, then you are fighting a losing battle.
9. The Commitment-Phobe:
A woman who finds it difficult to commit to anything (school, jobs, family, friendship, etc) would also not be able to commit to a marriage. If she seems to lose interest in everything quickly and is always looking for the next thing to jump into, then you would have a hard time keeping her focused in her marriage.
10. The Disrespectful Woman:
If she seems to always be disrespectful and rude (even if it is to people she considers beneath her standards) then you need to think twice about marrying her. Respect for a fellow human being is a very important attribute in who we choose to spend the rest of our lives with so it is definitely not something that should be taken lightly.

EducationRe: 2017/2018 Lasu Admission Guide Thread by olorunthobby: 9:40am On Oct 17, 2017
Yoo! Check this out guys. it's a post I received in a what's app group this morning.
.................................
Hello.

After confirming the updated news on Lasu's official page and website, I contacted one of my trusted lecturers so as to get the exact meaning of the news.

I wouldn't be here to spread an unconfirmed news. And I hate falsifying the truth. I have friends and families who are aspirants of Lasu as you are.

I'm just a concerned person who'd like to erase and clarify the bewildering news.

Truly, the admission exercise has been closed.

But a friend of mine was offered an admission this morning. She checked severally yesterday, even till she slept. But she still saw the popular, "not yet admitted."

She checked this morning, and she realised she had been admitted.

This should tell you that the list is being automatically uploaded.

They have chosen the 3500 to be admitted. But many of the successfully admitted aspirants haven't received notification of admission, due to some technical reasons.

And conclusively, a bitter truth that many shy away from is the reality that NOT all of the aspirants will be admitted.

This is not a curse. This is a reality.

Your prayer should be "among the few to be admitted, let me be enlisted."

Check your status periodically, they're still uploading.

Don't expect 2nd or 3rd list.

Wish you all success.

Remain blessed.

BusinessRe: Danbatta: Why Bankers Won’t Disclose Fraudsters by olorunthobby:
Just because an institution is large and reputable doesn’t make securities fraud impossible.
Large and reputable institutions are fully capable of committing securities fraud. For example, a respected church leader is sold an investment. The scam artist then informs this leader that if church members also purchase the investment, then profits can benefit the church or its favorite charity.
The leader unwittingly promotes the fraud to the congregation with the good intention of benefiting the church. The congregation invests based on their trust for the leader and their desire to support the church and they got scammed..

Car TalkRe: Is It Better To Buy A Old Car With Low Mileage Or A Newer One With High Mileage? by olorunthobby:
It’s an age-old question, really. Should you buy an older car that hasn’t seen too many miles, or should you opt for a newer model that’s been around the block a few hundred thousand times? The answer is: it depends .
There are many factors other than age and mileage that can (and should) influence your car-buying decision. Which car has the technology you can’t live without? Which car delivers the gas mileage you need? How much money are you prepared to spend on repairs and maintenance? How much money can you afford to spend up front? The list goes on.
You don’t have to be stuck in analysis paralysis, however. There are some simple guidelines that can help you decide which car is right for you, whether it’s a newer car with lots of miles, an older car with low miles, or something in between.
Let’s Start With The Older Car With Low Miles
First of all, what constitutes low miles for an older car? Generally, any car that has seen fewer than 10,000 miles per year since it was new can be considered relatively low-mileage. That means a 15-year-old car might have 150,000 miles and still be a “low-mileage” car—even though it might only have another 20,000 or 30,000 miles, if that, before it needs a major (read: expensive) service.
Some older cars may have seen fewer than 5,000 miles per year, making that 15-year-old example above a 50,000-75,000-mile car. Here, it might seem like a great idea—that older car has a nice vintage look and feel, it appears to be in good shape, and it should have another 75,000-100,000 miles of life in it, at least, right? Well, maybe.
When buying any older car, whatever the mileage, it’s important to learn as much as you can about the history of the car. That 5,000-mile-per-year average might be an honest 5,000 miles each of its 15 years, driven on a short commute, or driven infrequently as a third car, for example. But it might also reflect 15-20,000 miles per year, and a 10-year period where it sat, broken down or simply neglected. Knowing which situation applies to the specific car you’re interested in buying can mean the difference between years of satisfied ownership and a frustrating, time-consuming, expensive lemon.
Even if a car has sat for a long period, however, it may be just fine—again, it comes down to the particular circumstances. Was the car garaged in a temperature-controlled environment? Was it stored outside but shaded and protected from rain? Or was it parked in a grass lot and left to the elements? More importantly, how do you find out?
Figuring out exactly how a car has been treated throughout its life can be a difficult task. Services like CarFax can help, but it can’t give every detail, or explain every gap in the record. That’s why Instamotor pre-screens every car that’s listed through the app. The Trust and Safety Report helps fill in those gaps. Sometimes, you can even find an owner who has maintained their own records on the car, from oil changes to new tire purchases to major repairs and more. Some will even keep log books detailing how they used the car over its life. A car that comes with a binder full of details on its use might command a premium over similar examples, but it may well be worth it for the peace of mind.
Newer Car With Higher Miles?
On the flip side, buying a newer car with higher miles holds its own challenges. Newer cars, being newer, have had fewer opportunities for mistreatment, abandonment, or neglect, so they can often be in much better shape to the naked eye—but that shiny coat of paint and clean interior may hide issues just beneath.
Take a three-year-old car with 60,000 miles, for example. That’s a fairly high-mileage car, but typical of someone with a longer commute. If they maintained it regularly, per the manufacturer’s recommendations, it’s probably a solid buy. But if they cut corners, changing the oil only once a year (or less—it happens), or if the car drove those 20,000 miles per year in a very hot or cold environment, there could be significant mechanical issues that won’t present until farther down the road—after it’s in your driveway and not the original owner’s problem anymore.
Likewise, how the miles are accrued is an important factor. It’s often said that highway miles are easier on a car than city miles, but that’s not always the case. Extended periods at higher speeds can mean more wear on items not commonly replaced, like wheel bearings and hubs, and it can also mean high average engine speeds, leading to more internal wear. On the flip side, a car that has seen 20,000 miles per year of stop-and-go traffic is likely to have soaked in its own heat regularly, potentially aging plastic and rubber pieces in the engine bay prematurely, as well as putting strain on the cooling and lubrication systems—which can also lead to premature engine and transmission wear.
Again, with the newer, higher-mileage car, it’s important to know the history of the specific car you’re buying, and the same tools that help with the older, low-mileage car’s purchase can help here, including Instamotor’s Trust and Safety Report.
Always Get A Mechanical Inspection
Another tool that should be in every used car shopper’s belt is the independent mechanic’s inspection. If you live in any decent-sized city, you will be able to find several mechanics (dozens in larger cities) who will be happy to inspect a potential purchase for any obvious, or even not-so-obvious issues, usually for a minimal fee (often $100 or less). It’s a small price to pay considering the value of the purchase you’re about to make.
So, back to the age-old question: which is better, the low-mileage classic or the high-mileage stunner? Well, it depends…
