Your uncle is well on his way to losing his entire retirement package. My advice is simple:
1) Keep the money in a bank until you know exactly what you're supposed to do with it. It will not evaporate within the six months it will take him to make an informed decision. It will not run away.
2) He should understand that many "investment opportunities" out there are designed to separate gullible people from their money. He should only trust his own judgment.
[s]3) This one is not advice; it's a criticism. He should have been thinking about this years before retirement! It is not the day you are filling your JAMB form that you start thinking about your career![/s]

The business that is right for your uncle depends on so many factors - his skills, his friends, what is in demand in his area, etc. The business section of the forum is full of free ideas - just search. No one is going to spoon feed anybody when it comes to money matters, because we're all looking for money!

Can't one get a fully functioning second-hand car for much less than this will eventually cost?

Ultimately, an inverter cannot generate power, it can only store it.
It could help if you have a several hours of public electricity every day.
But you would need an extremely large inverter and so many batteries.
I don't think 60kva inverters are easy to find!
Perhaps you should install one inverter and battery in every room?

What are you insinuating? That humans beings are killed? Tell us what happens in the video. What is political about it?

If it's that expensive, you probably shouldn't do it on your own. You don't want to spend your entire profit on litigation before you start making it. You need to meet with other distribution rights holders in the states and start a class action lawsuit.

I'm proud of what you're doing, tayo-D. Ultimately, pirates can only be defeated in courts of law.

You go first: tell us the channel on which we can watch the show!

Hehe. Nice one.

@Seun. This post is 1 month, 6 days old. Well,controversies sell a lot

Yeah. Oops.

Moving to education section on the assumption that this is a project or presentation topic.

The best use of the referral thread is to report bad transactions, though good ones are fine, too.

It's a completely stupid idea. You cannot give laptops to a child unless her parents have laptops.
You cannot give a million naira to a beggar's child and expect the parent not to chop most of it.

Increasing the pay package will pave the way for further reforms. You can't reform a hungry man.

I'm happy they were caught. They could easily have escaped with no repercussions.
Of course there's no excuse (it's a shame that we have to say that). I hope they rot in jail.

The laws do not say anything about regulatory bodies, except specific ones. For example, there is no law that says an Okada driver must join the touts association. There is no law that says you must join a union or guild. Of course, the various unions and guilds don't want you to know this.

TY Bello and Nnenna cannot be described as beauties IMHO

Really? Do you know any Nigerian musicians that are more beautiful then them? Or are you just hating because they must not praise prettier girls in your presence? Just asking

A "chick" has no status until she procures a marriage certificate, whereas best friends last forever.

If my girlfriend is not my best friend, that means I value my best friend more than I value her, right?

Those heavily photoshopped photos don't prove anything!

The truth is that there's nothing a Nigerian woman can do to prevent her husband from stealing. There's the (slight) possibility to that you will end up punishing some innocent spouses. The fairest way to punish them is to seize all the money and properties their husbands stole.

Jide Kosoko is a TV star.

Hillary Clinton strikes me as the kind of person who will do or say anything for political reasons. I don't think she has any personal convictions or elements of moral fibre in her soul. I believe she's going to run things just like GW Bush. We need someone who has sincerity and a moral compass.

Someone told me his story was bought by the producers of Super Story for 20,000 naira. (A story run over several weeks, or months) That's probably the exception rather than the rule.

Dove Media can only buy script 50k so how do you expect someone to sell a creative work of art 50k

By the time you have written a blockbuster or two, you'll be able to charge more than 50K. Patience!

What sort of wrong things? Like being untidy or like cheating on you with another woman? If the former, then obviously you're being a nasty nag. You're supposed to ignore such unimportant things. If it's the latter then you're hanging on to a man you ought to have dropped a long time ago. Assuming it's the former, then you ought not to be going out with a man whose harmless habits you can't stand for whatever reason. If you criticize people over unimportant things, then after a while they won't be interested in any advice you might want to give - whether important or not. See?

It is just i can't get it, he is unfaithful and when she brings up the topic, he starts shouting and telling her she is nagging ( what audacity )

If he is unfaithful, why is she still with him?
If she has forgiven him, why must she bring up the topic all the time?
Nagging is a bad habit. If a man isn't treating you well, leave him!
And if you refuse to leave, then forgive and forget!

Forget the number of people who log on everyday
it is clear that participation is dwindling gradually.

Oh shut up. I have statistics to tell me whether or not participation is "dwindling", but participation isn't my only measure of success. I am more proud of the fact that we have not been condemned in the media for a while.

please,i want you to help out on this problem,as a friend of mine that i invited to this forum
having registered is unable to post a new topic in the forum.the specific problem was is after
he must have sign in to the forum,the icon for new topic would not come.please what
can he do .

He needs to participate in existing topics before he can start posting new ones!

that's what u get when one person feels/thinks he/she can do it all.

It depends on what you're goals are. I'm more concerned about not losing money. Hiring moderators might make the forum a little bit cleaner, but I have to pay for an office, computers for the moderator, Internet access, a generator and an inverter, etc, as well as security for all these items. And then I'll have to moderate the moderators. Business-wise I am not convinced that the investment in all that would be a sound one. That is why I'm still doing it alone.

The costs are lower if I hire moderators based abroad, but they expect to earn more money. For example, I can hire a European moderator for an amount which is exorbitant when converted to naira. It's not even going to be a full time moderator. Let's say I decide to make the sacrifice and part with the money, will the moderator generate 700 euros in additional revenue? That is the big question.

You are concerned about your enjoyment of the forum. I understand. But at the end of the day, someone has got to pay the bills. And that someone is is not convinced that getting moderators is a wise step at the moment.

Hmmm. these prices are not necessarily the cheapest but at least they are open prices.

Which one are you talking about? 'Body Of Desire' or 'Second Chance'? Movie or TV show?

The last logo is solid but badly sampled. You should create it as a high resolution and then downsample it with a nice bicubic resizer such as the one in photoshop or corel photopaint.

Moved to auto section. I.e. car section.
