Interesting. Right and wrong, good and evil are relative, and not universal, as they vary in definition across different species, cultures, etc.

What you just described would look gruesome and horrid to
a set of people whose culture doesn't welcome cannibalism.

Certain cultures of the past saw nothing wrong in such an act and some animals (another specie) would see that act as normal.

wow thanks for making me understand like this, I'm an atheist with compassion I guess that's why I see things like that.

Brigance:
Would you still have shuddered in cringe if it so happens that the girl in question had just thrown on a bomb into a community of villagers, killing half of them?

wow now that I think about it from this point of view I don't feel that bad

fowlyansh181:
you decide to see what you decide to see.

lol ... You are not far from the truth bro

Yesterday I watched a real life video on whatsapp where a group of boys chopped off a girls head with a Matchete live on camera....i kept thinking to myself this is wrong, this is wrong... I just can't wrap my head around the fact that there is no right or wrong, I thought the knowledge of right and wrong was a state of mind bestowed on us from birth...that is why there are some things that happen today that everyone considers bad no matter their beliefs or religious denominations.

@ bolded


You seem to always have the perfect adjective to describe them

lol

minasota:
fool

ah ah Wetin im do you

lagostaxiguy:
My sincere apologies if this is noise to you, I do not wish to brag but I've won way above that in live games and I do not come here to "make noise" as you put it, the only reason I ever posted here was because of the relatively low cashout, I was hoping they will have a representative here and so others can use better bookies when they have long Acumulators like this.

I am beginning to agree there are more kids and emotionally disturbed people like you on this forum hence I'll stop posting in this section and remain in my "kabu kabu" section like another one like you said yesterday, there's absolutely no reason remaining here trying to have fun and gets insulted every second. Cheers.

this thread is indeed very toxic, but your expertise is equally needed here, ignore those hooligans

Never have,
Never will,

Real men don't cry.

indeed, real men don't cry

lagostaxiguy:
30k is not astronomically.

did you finally hedge the bet

justwiseass:
I’ll pause here @Tissuepaper


Meanwhile even the wind that blows by on a Sunday afternoon will feel the presence of a joyous congregation of Nairaland punters

indeed

FRoosevelt:
People with such thoughts and actions are Lucifer personified.

The real village people.

justwiseass:
And sadly enough, it happens among siblings too.



One of the features of an economic man is that human beings are self centered

If I elaborate more, you’ll realize how it eventually works for the betterment of others. Although, he never wished, unknowing to him; he’s been controlled by what classical economists call The Invincible Hand

hmm sounds intriguing

FRoosevelt:
I think it's a sort of natural feeling that goes away when you become successful or really confident in your abilities as you mature mentally.

Tbh, only losers and greedy people still retain that sort of emotion.

I only felt that way when I was a kid.

exactly @ bolded

It sounds really crazy tho, I mean why would anyone be praying for the downfall of another especially when he has almost achieved his apex of success...it'll surprise you to know that a lot of Nigerians matured in age still have that feeling of epicaricacy and it seems to be very common among punters.

So sad

FRoosevelt:
They are anticipating that schadenfreude feeling

lol, I used to be like that but I've changed

ChiefAzubuike:
I don't bet, but what you are advising the boy to do is called Arbitrage Betting. Be wise , because the betting platform will definitely find out and he will lose heavily at the end. They won't accept that.

they won't find out if he uses a different bookmaker

justwiseass:
Tissuepaper baba! I hail thee

Your own millions too is on the way.

For he that wishes his brother well gets elevated too.


Thumbs up!

Thanks man

Travelling is Education.......

traveling is education... I like that

lagostaxiguy:
Ok, now I understand, its hedging. I can't make a deposit of such amount on via oaystack using my card but I'll find another means to credit it but I might have to use another bookie right? Let me check the odds on bet9ja, please if you know a bookie with good odds tell me so I can deposit and place the bet, 1m profit is good.

I know the game will come thru tho, its a Bulgarian team

or use 250k to hedge if you're so sure of the game so that if it eventually greens you won't sulk over losing your 500k for nothing.

lagostaxiguy:
I've got no idea what that is bruv, you can explain better. I'm not such a pro, I just follow luck and I play more of live games, I can stake heavy on live game.

I meant you should stake on over1.5 with 500k ...but It all depends on what you want, if I were you tho that Is what I'd have done... You feel me

Cc. Lagostaxiguy don't you think you should hedge the last game with like 500k, it's a win-win situation for you if the game doesn't come through.... I'm sure there are some people people on the thread who can help you do that if you don't have the mind for it.

I've learnt a whole lot from you guys on this thread, Pls continue the good work

babyfaceafrica:
and so?...we should boil air?

if you'd like

grateful236:
Wow.. Nice.. Congrats to the person. Na you abi?

lagostaxiguy

While you guys are here hating and complaining someone on this thread is about to become a millionaire right under your nose

This life is damn funny

klassd:
No he hasn't.

in the mean time report to his bank account for fraud until he sends back the money, his account should be frozen.

Zero tolerance for scammers on this thread

funlord:
When I sounded a warning the other day it was not for practice purposes. He has already been added to the scammers list and his account will soon be deleted and I hope his victims report his bank account for fraud

thank you so much sir, your intuition was 100% correct, slowly and steadily they have started showing themselves in their numbers

naijawisdom:
@TissuePaper, while people are sharing how they made their first million one this your beautiful & eyes opening thread, one Sunday is also using crooked means to make his first million by SCAMMING Nairalanders on this thread.

so it seems, I'll advice everyone to be wary in their dealings with some people on here cuz not all of them have your interest at heart...pls look before you leap

@klassd has he sent back the money?

Cc. Tabbaz funlord Dominique seems we have a potential scammer on the loose @Raysolo

SocialJustice:
One thing I'll tell you though, know what you want and go for it. Do not be intimidated by people, if you draw up your plan and a big man comes into the picture, do not be afraid to walk up to him and discuss. Greet him politely and say what you have to. Do not belittle yourself in front of him, else they will either ignore or exploit you. Most importantly, be prayerful, ask God to show you favour and mercy as you proceed.

If you do not have an LLC yet, register one, prepare letter headed papers and send proposals to them. You make letters in 3 original copies, one for the proposal file, one for copy and the one you actually deliver. Get whoever receives the letter to sign the copy. Most times, they won't reply you. Send a follow up letter. Reference and document your letters properly.

Most people you see out there do not know how to do these things, this alone and God's grace is enough to stand you out. Create the impression of a big company even when it's just you.

God will definitely show mercy and bless your labour.

wow, these words are Gold, thank you so much, I'll definitely heed your advice.

SocialJustice:
Not this country alone, everywhere in the world. I can't just bring anybody in especially one I do not know or have worked with personally. Like I said earlier, took me more than 10 years to build my reputation to get considered for the magnitude of deals I do now.

your words are not far from the truth, you deserve every bit of success you're enjoying now, God bless your hustle.

SocialJustice:
Exactly and I realise that.

I also think I can be of assistance if there are any available jobs over there that I can fit in...similar to yours, to have connection in this country is the most significant thing and that is where I seem to be lacking.
