Perhaps a better word is "personalized"

Whatever the term used, it simply means you fork out about 250k to request that an inscription of your choice be provided as your vehicle number. (eg. HACKER - 1) instead of EKY 234 GS which they would have ordinarily provided in the course of new numbers generation.
Hope it won’t affect someone? Like police stopping you and asking why you are using a customised plate number and co

They won't stop you but you just end up getting unwanted attention.

No idea why anyone would possibly want a personalized plate without having a security detail too.

I was planning on using my surname as a customized plate number.

I have a small body and I don’t want police asking me how i got and bought a car

[quote author=samsard post=88990485]If you missed an economy class, the whole world literally runs on debt! Loans aren't necessarily bad, even communist China owes a ton of debt. Unhealthy loans are the ones that are bad. I would rather live in a credit economy where the quality of life is good than in a hell hole like Nigeria not owing.
It is actually "economics class".

The whole world does not run on debt.
Even if it were, that doesn't mean that debt is good for you in particular or should be unlimited as you have no robust buffer to safeguard your livelihood.

"Unhealthy loans are the ones that are bad"
The above quote is meaningless.
No one knows for certain that a personal loan will be bad at the time of giving it.
The creditor is taking a risk akin to gambling.
Subprime mortgages were good loans until it triggered 2008 financial crisis
which wrecked millions of lives financially.

What happens if you lose your job or experiene a breakdown?
Even states defaults on their loans, let alone an individual.

[quote]I sometimes laugh at people who scoff at consumerism in the world like it isn't what drives the global economy. If everyone just went back to the basics and stopped borrowing, then the world drives a lot more slowly and some people would have no place. There is no big world economy with a significant population that isn't debt-driven.
Again you confuse states debt with individuals.
Most of human existence were spent not in debt.

If you have a secret gold mine in your room, you may take debt against
future mining. However, if you borrow 100K Naira to buy a phone, you are
not 100K rich, you have become poorer.

When the full economy cycle comes home to roost, you are left naked unable
to weather the storm. America is about to be hit with another wave of homelessness and suicides due to lockdown when the 2008 one has not been fully resolved.

It is better to be averagely okay than to fall flat from the height of "debt wealth".

Damnnnnn niggarrr
Isoright

I understand op very well

But sometimes ehnnn the easiest way to also conquer poverty is to also fake this life and package your life


Even if you don't have much just try and buy that expensive ride. Form big boy for area. That can even attract those people that will even make you to be big

Take for example: you want award contract give two people. One drive Audi car come and the other person drive venza come. Instantly your mind go first tell you say na this venza guy deserve the contract
Depends on the Audi model. And year of production
