Fickle minded people.

Those ones that form holy pass are the worst sort of people when you get to know them.

The woman looked modest enough but they will not be okay until she has drowned herself in unnecessary fabric and suffer heat and discomfort.

Holy holy on the outside, demons in the inside. Bloody fanatics. They think everyone is backward like them.

Hi guys, I have been silent, sowie but it's because I don't want to promise and fail.

So instead of promising and failing, I just kept quiet.

But this Morning, I woke up to see this story has hit front page for the third time and I was like WTF! Again?!

I am very grateful to the Mod in charge. Maybe it's his way of lighting faya under my butt and trying to get me to complete this.

I will post this afternoon. I'm not done yet (just one last scene remaining) but I will brush up what I have and upload it. I sincerely apologise for keeping you on a long loop like this.

Thanks.

Zombies who have been in strange hiding for a while, now have a reason to crawl out of their hideaway pits briefly, spew nonsense as usual and then crawl back to hibernate until their masters work some other unimpressive miracle for them. grin

Kudos to Aisha, for giving her loyal brainless followers, a little sunshine in their very gloomy existence. grin grin grin

NameChecker:
The disadvantages of import:
1.Foreign goods are substituting the domestic goods' markets,so the domestic industries (Innoson & Co) are eliminated.
2.Trade deficit will cause the currency devaluation, inflation (Nigeria's Current Problem).
3.The importing of important industries will lose the influence by importing country.

If you still don't understand that the increment is a deliberate measure to discourage importation,
then you know nothing, I repeat, nothing.

***Culled from ECO 101***
Mr fake economist.... this move will bring about more harm than good, just watch. They have only killed small businesses but large importers will still bring their goods into the country and inflation will thrive.

You don't suddenly wake up and put these restrictions when you haven't put other things in place for the affected people to fall back on.

When fundermental infrastructure is provided, industries will naturally spring up and gradually people will be weaned off patronising imported goods. Or if the government likes, they can then impose restrictions only after the system is sustainable.

Take Dangote industries as an example. It didnt appear overnight, it grew and now it is one of the largest in Africa. Were there no imported goods when Dangote was starting out? Did that affect his industry developing into what it is today?

Put the right things in place and diversification will happen.

Maybe there should be death sentences for treasury looters but ofcourse even then, the system will be rigged to favour some sacred hens while condemning others who might have no political allies at the time.

Happiness isn’t necessarily wealth BUT happiness to my family looks like the following:
Being able to send our kids to the best school
Being able to match our needs and want with a great degree of affordability
Being able to have above par level of comfort



Are we still talking about the common man here or we going to pluck anomalies and paint it as the norm?
How much was Obama earning at the time?
She could have earned more is a probability which frankly can’t be factored into the equation. It made economic sense at the time to support his dream because he was probably earning enough at the time or they had earned enough to allow them focus on his election. Barack was earning around $150K per annum at the time which clearly is upper middle class

It’s simple logic to expect a partner to focus on other things if money isn’t/wasn’t an issue


Finance is a key part of family so it’s impossible to ignore it when it’s clearly the second most important reason for divorce after infidelity
Finance is key, agreed which is why a man is adviced to have a job before marriage but is it ever enough? Does one ever get to the point where one will say... okay, I am earning enough now and money is not an issue anymore so, let me just relax a bit or maintain where I am right now?

I bet you it doesn't.

And again, to be able to earn more and keep the cash flow steady, one definitely has to invest more time into whatever one is doing. This will definitely tell on other areas of one's life because no one is superman.

It takes someone who values the right things to know when to step back and focus on what matters most. In this case, Family because the fact is money is never enough and as one's income rises, so does his wants and his expenditure.

I applaud Michelle Obama because it really isn't easy. From where you are,you see them as upper middle class but she could have wanted so much more for herself. We can apply that scenario to our lives, how much will eventually be enough?

We like to tell ourselves we are doing these things to give the best to our children/family but sometimes, we are really doing these things for ourselves. To drive the best cars, designer clothes etc. It's not bad o but one should just not lose sight of what matters more.

I rest my case.
Politics › Re: Presidency Plots To Remove Dogara, Others - Linus Okorie by repogirl(f): 11:49am On Aug 03, 2016
gretblue:
Unfortunately for you,I will not wail alongside with you simply because I don't play politics of tribalism or Religious sentiments. That was why when Dogara name was mentioned.The only thing you could contribute or say was that PMB was after Dogara removal simply because Dogara is a Christian.You and your loyalties will continue to wail as long as you allow tribal and religious sentiments to becloud your sense of reasoning. The Dogara Christians and his likes are enjoying their loots why you are on line here defending their impunity.
seriously, you need to do that upgrade quickly because the only person that is beclouded by anything is you. Ask your masters to probe every body together, there should be no sacred hens anywhere. No one should be shielded.

People like you who are not religiously beclouded should make your voices heard instead of facing the so called religious bigots.

BTW, we are not religious bigots, we are tired of the obvious partiality going on.

I’m sure I didn’t go off tangent since the scenario explained is what many go through in the pursuit of good life.

Success requires flexibility except it’s okay to accept status quo so the family can have a questionable level of happiness.

Yes no family will be happy being separated. I’m also certain you need to be flexible with your approach to achieve ultimate success


Bottom line which I’m sure you now agree is there really isn’t a hard and fast rule to successful relationships. You have to do whatever it takes to achieve the collective defined success.
by questionable level of happiness, you definitely term 'happiness' to mean wealth.

I still believe family first. Even Michelle Obama had to give up a promising law career to focus on her family. She chaired a few boards and earned some income but it was nothing compared to what she would have gained if she had continued with law.

Maybe there isn't a proven hard and fast rule to successful relationships but if people chose to focus on their kids/family instead of wealth(success), maybe things could be different and true success could be achieved.

There's nothing wrong in being a career woman, supporting the home and family but if her job is taking her away from what really matters(family), it's probably time to dial it down a notch.

That's my belief anyway. You might not agree, it's fine.
