PoliticsRe: Recession: 5 Facts Before President Buhari Took Over Power In 2015 by Stycon(m): 10:43am On Dec 30, 2017
It's not about the state of the economy at transition, it's about the appropriateness of the current government's response to what was/is on ground.

Ofcourse, if the economy doesn't need a saving, we won't be scouting for a saviour. And it currently appears that the proposed saving strategy is more of a propaganda than a plan.

That said, we still have a year to see if the change promised was really delivered ~ retrospectively.
RomanceRe: Nice Guys by Stycon(m): 10:20am On Dec 30, 2017
The issue with the so called "Nice guys" ~ whatever this means huh is not "being nice" in the sense of "Nice", it's exhibiting traits that are undesirable and unattractive such as being needy, boring, predictable and so on.

Trust me, a sensible lady would go for a nice dude, provided he doesn't exhibit the aforementioned traits

Adegbenro7643:
Honesty, as in?
Do u mean being faithful to one's partner?
Nope, it's when your honesty is just an expression of stupidity ~ when you stay committed even having seen the hand-written on the wall - when your honesty is paddled only by your emotions without the benefits of your brain and an objective evaluation of the so called union.


NB: you might wanna look beyond the title as it's serving it's purpose already cool

Word!!!

OP, Learn not to agree with a narrative just because someone made a "long" post about it. You seem like the kind that Will like a long post even though it's just filled with brain fart.
And who says the OP agrees with the above just because it's a "long" post huh

Btw, the so called "long" post is not in anyway saying you shouldn't be honest nor preaching dishonesty...it's just pointing to the fact that it takes more than that to keep a partner.

WORDWORLD:
This really has nothing to do with HONESTY but COMFORT ZONE!!! Its during HARD TIMES that we know the disposition of other people's heart. If for or against us. You dont loose by being HONEST. Its a LAW like as the as the SUN RISES IN THE EAST AND SETS IN THE WEST. If you choose to be honest in a relationship is for your own sake, not as a favor to the other person. THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE FAIL TO UNDERSTAND.

Always know that whatever virtue we choose is for our own good! Not as to please others . Hence, to divert by becoming DISHONEST due to some short-coming because one's choice of being honest is yet to yield FRUITFUL RESULT which is INEVITABLE means to be lacking in WISDOM as to what HONESTY is all about because NO MATTER WHAT, HONESTY must yield a good fruit in the end. HONESTY IS ALWAYS TESTED!!! Honesty can only keep those who are also honest and not otherwise. THATS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT! And thats why there is a split when there is cheating in a relationship. Unless both are cheats, some how the blend. MY WHOLE POINT IS WE DONT LOOSE BY BEING HONEST.
Ofcourse. Dishonesty is not a virtue...

pocohantas:
This isn't a perfect rebuttal to the other, because it focused on the sexual recklessness of women. That's understandable, knowing that women are judged more for their moral conduct, and men for their financial capability.

Some ladies don't know how bad their actions are, till they are in same position. The case of that woman who killed her husband comes to mind. She was a side chick, became the wife...the first wife left. But she couldn't bear the thought of him having another side chick. Maybe it's human nature to want to be treated better than they treat others.

That said, I am a refurbished virgin and I want a rich faithful husband. Reason being that:
Broke guys are insecure.
Broke guys are paranoid.
Broke guys can give hypertension.
Broke guys play victim a lot.
The loyalty of a broke guy can never be trusted... grin grin grin
How come I am not any of the above: insecure, paranoid..."Cos i'm actually a "broke" guy and I think my loyalty remains a constant even though my broke state is obviously a variable.

Howbeit, I've gat feasible and workable plans that would make me a "rich faithful husband."~ and this is for real.

And the last time I checked, to be a "rich faithful husband" you've gat to be married already "Cos it takes the "married" to be husband...and I guess you wouldn't wanna marry a married "rich faithful husband"

So, here is my proposition, I would love to get to know you, friend you and if we find it worth while, it would be my greatest pleasure to be that "rich faithful husband" few seconds into our marriage.

"Cos by then the story would be, a single faithful broke dude just became a "rich faithful husband"





Lol.

I actually might just be serious tongue

aflyingbird:
Not particularly sure if she does have a kid but my point is that she's not a virgin and still managed to capture the heart of someone like Prince Harry.

She's also a divorcee since she was married before for some years, and oh, she's 3 years older than Prince Harry. She's 36, Prince Harry is 33.

Despite all these, he's absolutely in love with her and the Queen likes her too. She gas no choice but to agree to his choice anyway, seeing how much he loves her. He can marry any woman in the world but he chose her. Meanwhile some nuisances here with no priorities in life are screaming virginity up and down, like it's going to make a marriage last and like it really matters at the end of the day.
Like seriously?!

Bruv, you really need a reset of your mindset! So, the fact that one prince in one foreign land acted in certain way makes his action a standard for humanity; and anyone who chooses to do otherwise becomes a nuisance huh


It's quite unfortunate!

Interesting!

I would love to build one, howbeit, not with the kinda lease concession/arrangement obtainable at maintenance.

And in this case, my concern is the possibility of getting land (availability) with considerable proximity to the school, "Cos that's the only reason why such high rental fee can be justifiable.

Mariinee:
I have been wondering. What's the motive behind going to a restaurant, buying food and not eating that food to satisfaction?
I notice people like wasting food in the bid to act big or something. Now,I have no problem with rich and wealthy doing that, they have the money. But if you don't have the money, why must you waste food?

I once met a girl inside a restaurant in my school. She entered, ordered food, bought plastic coke and then sat down to eat. To my amazement,she ate like four spoons of the food, sipped a little of her coke and then stood to leave. She didn't even finish her chicken. shocked
Frankly, from the way she was dressed, it was obvious she just wanted to act big. I was pretty sure she would still be hungry so I just shook my head in pity.

On the other side, there were two men too. They ordered a lot of salad, rice, plantain and everything but they only ate the chicken. shocked shocked
I was like... shocked shocked

To me, it's just plain wastage of food. There are so many people out there without food to eat so stop wasting food. If you go to an eatery, order what you can finish. Do not buy more than you can finish. And stop leaving food in your plate just to act big.cheesy

Even if you must remain food in your plate, leave just a lil amount. angry angry angry
I will suggest you go ahead and ask the folks in question next time rather than just making some baseless assumptions here.

You have a valid "wondering" but your deduction is far from valid.

BusinessRe: Nigeria Sells $3 Billion Eurobonds - Largest Ever. by Stycon(m): 4:35pm On Nov 21, 2017
As much as it may sounds a bit logical to refinance domestic debt with seemingly "cheap" foreign loan - rate wise - I hope whoever is concerned also understand that paying debt in dollars is a "cost" on its own.

Anyway, let's hope this will lessen the rate at which govt crowds out private sector credit and making access to fund difficult for private sector - this would be the only upside to this move.

And of course, it's a win for foreign investors since government cannot start printing more dollars to pay the debt in the foreseeable future which would have been a concern for investors if it's a naira denominated debt

BusinessRe: How Can A Person Living In Nigeria Become Rich? by Stycon(m): 5:07pm On Nov 19, 2017
It's possible to amass legit wealthy.

First thing is to find a need that you can meet at an affordable price and a good bottom line (profit).

Then create a system around it that can make you more money without your active involvement.

It could be in

- Tech space
- Oil and gas space
- Agric Space
- Real Estate Space, etc.

- buy more assets (things that bring money in) and less liabilities (things that takes money out)

You may also wanna go into paper asset or more risky investments - depending on your risk appetite.

Once, you've proven the system to be a cash generating one, then go for "good debt" - a debt that others will pay for.

Or alternatively go for other people's fund- equity- choose whichever fit best.

This will help you make more money...most times it's a game of volume...#expansion


And yeah! it starts with your mindset... and a "viable IDEA"

Ofcourse, you can start side by side with your earned income...but to be wealthy, you've gat to consider passive income/investment.

...and eventually you'll get to a point where you've gat to quit your salary paying job and face your wealth building venture.

Unfortunately, many people couldn't make this transition because of fear.

As it is hard for a carmel to pass through the nose of a needle, that's how hard it is for a salary earners to become wealthy- if not for anything, tax is one of the thing that will limit you!

Note: it's not a one-way thing but then this is a synopsis of way to work around creating wealth.

Yeah! It's not this easy! And yes! there is more and yes! you can only copy principles...

Everyone has to find his/her unique way to create wealth.

And the beauty of it is: everyone can!

Compliments don't make anyone needy. What turns a guy needy in this case is if he compliments continously. For example, he sees a girl he likes today and he goes "Babe, I love your dress". Later that same day, they run into each other and he goes "I love your hair do". C'mon! Pretend you didn't see her or notice her looks on the second meeting. grin

Complimenting a girl right away, before you even know her
- for example, telling her she’s gorgeous, or you like her dress, or she has nice style, or she’s a cool, fun person, etc... all super needy.


I hope you see where the emphasis lies


There are better ways to kick off a conversation with a damsel than showering her with "how angelic her voice sound" or "how sexy her curve is" - c'mon! What happens to getting to know her first on a deeper and more appealing level huh
Romance7 Common Behaviors That Make You Look NEEDY by Stycon(op): 10:46am On Nov 19, 2017
“Oh Mike… I’m sorry, but I just don’t see you *that* way...”

“Why?” I asked her. “We’ve been going out for over a month... Just level with me.”

She hesitated, and then…

She did me a HUGE favor. She told me the truth.

“You’re a really nice guy Mike, but… you’re just too… NEEDY.”

I’ll never forget that sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach.

My face burning. My balls shriveling up inside of me...

What had I done wrong?

I had done everything by-the-book (or so I thought).

I’d used every pickup artist trick… every so-called seduction secret to try to make her want me…

But all the junk these “gurus” and “dating coaches” taught in their e-books and video courses?

It was all bullshit.

How could I have been so dumb?

Where did their advice get me?

Stuck straight in the friend zone, that’s where.

What was I missing?

Why was my neediness so painfully obvious to her?

I’ll tell you why...

And no girl is going to come right out and admit this, but…

Women can read you like a book.

She knows what you’re fvcking thinking, man.

So even if you think you’re playing it cool...

You might still be looking “needy” or “creepy” or “sketchy”...

Without even realizing it!

Here are the 7 most common ways I see guys doing this:

1. Leaning in to talk to a girl, while she stays put and doesn’t move. You’re trying too hard - a big turn off. It’s subtle, but painfully obvious to women.

2. Complimenting a girl right away, before you even know her - for example, telling her she’s gorgeous, or you like her dress, or she has nice style, or she’s a cool, fun person, etc... all super needy.

3. Buying her gifts - this could be anything from flowers, to buying her dinner and drinks, to getting her jewelry… it looks like you’re trying to “buy” her affection.

4. The “I’m here when you need me” vibe - this is when you’re super available for a girl whenever she wants to talk to you. Don’t be the guy who jumps whenever she says “jump”, dude!

5. Texting too much - if your texts are way longer than hers, or more frequent than hers, or using a lot more smileys than hers… then you look super needy.

6. Being too sensitive and taking things she says too personally (also called “being a little bytch”). This is super insecure… women hate this!

7. Agreeing with everything she says. This is what guys do when they’re trying to “force a connection,” and it’s super wussy. Instead, express your own opinions and have a backbone, it’s way more attractive.

So, listen.

I’ve done all of these things, and more.

And if you’re displaying any of these common needy behaviors…

Make a point to cut them out and you’ll notice a massive improvement in how women treat you.
