Angelfrost:


Well, a floated currency not propped by loans is meant to fluctuate depending on how demand and supply affect it.

The aim now should be increasing the demand for the Naira whilst diminishing the need for foreign currencies.

This can only happen if importation is largely reduced in favor of exports.

Local production and consumption remain the way forward.

You meant the Naira that's already everywhere chasing fewer products. Or how else would you describe getting significantly lesser value for the same amount of money?

If local production is ongoing and ramped up (at affordable costs), demand for imports could reduce - especially that for food.

But, when the government doesn't encourage that local production with necessary amenities and adequate security, what are we talking about?

Naira hadn't depreciated anywhere near this level when they went after AbokFX. And what?

These people will just leave the substance and be chasing shadows. There are illegal (often foreign) miners operating in this country, for instance, what notable step has the House taken to tackle them? I can go on and on!

Again,you keep referring to unverifiable claims, hearsays, half-truths etc.Have your monies in the bank and pay taxes for it, nothing wrong with that.And l am not saying there aren't some few bad eggs in the system but that ain't any excuse or reason to not make amends on banking laws or directives.l won't want to delve on lists of global economies but l can tell you that,most economies do tax anymore that has a minimum of 10.000 dollars on your account Even those hiding their monies through stock,index fund etc are oblige to pay huge taxes.

Regarding the bold section, if you cannot even mention a single economy as an example of those "functional economies" that would take such an action that you proposed, then there's no point in bringing that up to start with.

I can boldly tell you that no democratic or elected government would tax investment (stock, index fund etc). They would only tax the gain or returns from it, not the capital.

If you have ever gotten savings interests, put money in fixed deposit, or invested in stock/mutual funds, you'd know that tax is paid on just the profit. That's standard practice! The percentage of tax may only differ from one place to another.

You seem to already have your mind made up. So there's no need for any back and forth. Just believe what you choose to believe. With time, you may know better.

Tendd:


I am talking of increased hoarding and speculation which is one of the motives for people to keep such a huge sum of money.Most functional economies in the world would never allow that much money to lie there without being taxed or changed to their currencies.
I am not saying the government should confiscate people's money and it's always your choice to look for other alternatives to save your money.
Other things you mentioned like kidnapping, Unknown gunmen, mining etc are hearsay or rumours that can not be substantiated and even at it, shouldn't be use as an excuse to not proffer solutions to improve the economy of the country.

Did you really think those who illegally "hoard" foreign currency - like all these corrupt politicians - keep them in banks? I can vouch that the bulk of the foreign currencies in banks are from legal dealings. So you want people to be taxed for simply saving their money in a more stable currency?

On the bold section, could you give examples of functional economies that have made such a move? I doubt you'd even be able to name one because they won't let their money lose value as much as the Naira has. So there's no need for such an action to start with.

So you still think that kidnappings, illegal mining, oil bunkering etc being sponsored by influential people in the country is mere rumour? Even without being told, shouldn't you have been able to figure that out? I don't believe that hypothesis because people merely suggested it; it's simply hard to think otherwise!

nairalanda1:


Painfully, (a point that has been made by many here) we don't have the cash to do so

Debt, incurred by defending the naira in times past, paying for subsides, corruption, and by the chronically low oil prices since 2014, is why we no longer have the money.

Either the government starts taxing everyone, or we pray for a miracle...or we do something close to what is being done now.

As much as I agree with much of what you've written on this thread, I have slight reservations about the bold part.

To pay tax is the duty of every citizen, I agree. But how do you get encouraged to do that when corrupt people in positions of authority seem to be in a competition of who can loot the most? Yet, they go practically scot-free!

By the way, there's hardly anybody that doesn't pay tax in this country. Income tax isn't the only type of tax. How judicious has the government been with what it collected in the past?

Meanwhile the same name is successfully listed on Sedo.

From my quick #Land search, I saw somewhere that turning on WHOIS privacy might make them suspend an account, could that be so because I have the WHOIS privacy turned on.

It won't. I use WHOIS Privacy for all domains in my portfolio.

Let him simply contact Afternic and find out what happened.

MrEja:


congrats my boss, my question is that how do you reach out to the owners? do you fill those info@coysname.com or what? please enlighten me boss. thanks

Thanks, bro!

I reach out to end users the usual way. Nothing fancy.

However, I try to target decision-makers such as owners, presidents, or maybe even marketing/business development. I just use the regular "info" or "contact" email address types if I can't find the preferred ones.

SmartMen:


Congrats on your sale. On the emboldened, get an Iphone and you will never miss any email. The reason I am using iphone is simply because of notifications.

Thanks, boss. Strangely, I am not a fan of iPhone.

January '24 Sales

Name: Lake//Oconee//Rental (in king)
Source: ED
SP: $650 (BIN)
Type: Outbound/Inbound
Venue: Afternic
HT: 22+ months (one-year renewal)

Name: Denver//Puppy//Training (in king)
Source: ED
SP: $250 (BIN $495)
Type: Outbound
Venue: DAN
HT: 2 months

Name: Mobile//Pet//Doctor (in king)
Source: ED
SP: $995 (BIN)
Type: Inbound
Venue: DAN (via Distribution Network)
HT: 60 days

I decided to not wait to do a quarterly report for these ones. This is about the highest number of sales I had quarterly last year.

The Lake Oconee name sold after previous outbound efforts seemed to have failed. It came through on 1 January, the following day after my last sale in the previous quarter. I once discounted the price to $300 (in 2022) and even did fresh outbound much later (2023), but no show before this sale.

The Denver sale was one of my easier ones. It sold after following up on the first email. Buyer offered the sale price in reply; I countered with 399, but they maintained 250. The only person who showed interest after the first email didn't respond to follow-up emails - she later did after the sale. Lesson: follow up always (at least one time in the worst case scenario).

I wasn't aware of the pet doctor sale until almost 24 hours later when DAN sent me a reminder with a 24-hour "ultimatum." Gmail somehow didn't notify me and I didn't check my inbox, partly because it was a Sunday. I shock say na this kain sale I for miss.

Glory to God!

dayo2hot:


Thanks bro. Actually, the GoDaddy appraisal valued it at $1,300 that's why I get mind for that price.

Congratulations on the sale, bro!

But that GD appraisal doesn't count for much. I have had domains appraised higher not sold for even 100 bucks. This is a miraculous sale IMHO.

Learn Forex trading. It’s a skillset . Should take you about 3 months, if you are a fast learner and when you get the US you can take money from your job and fund your account to trade

So Forex trading is so easy to master for consistent, sustainable trading after learning for just three months? Tell me how, please!

This move may help launder their reputation to some extent. Frauds use these online banks a lot, going by my observation.

I think there are at least about three spammers on this thread, even on this very page. Can moderators do something about them?

Thanks, looking forward to hearing from people.

Sorry, I have no clue. But please do keep me posted if you do find any.

Mirasteel:
Message me with the Telegram handle on my signature.

Thanks for your response.

But that's the problem and what the "story" I wrote in the second paragraph was about: I am not allowed to message people whose numbers I do not have saved on my contact list. Those people have to message me first.

It seemed I was ban and I have contacted Telegram support repeatedly on it but no response. I decided not to bother again since I rarely send messages anyway.

MrEja:


is it advisable i buy on spaceship, please what are the cons? can i transfer out, just find out that the promo is valid, can i also apply it to other domains or just one?

Just seeing your post. I wasn't using Spaceship previously, so I can't say much about it.

I registered an account two days ago to take advantage of a couple of coupons. But, they claimed I was using a VPN or proxy (which wasn't true) - my Nigerian IP address was showing. I couldn't use the coupons and support refused to budge, so I aborted the mission.

KOLLEE:

Spaceship is bigger than one dot com o. $2.8 is the cheapest promo.

You're right.

I later went on to research more about the two. Found out Spaceship was recently launched by Name//Che.a.p, so it has more credence sorta. One just seemed like a name I had been seeing around for a longer time.

Zxcvbnmghtr:

You are right. But lol the worst of tenants is a police.

E be like say you get experience.

Do you have a channel? Or may I have the number you use for your Telegram account?

For like over a year now, I cannot message people not on my contact list. I don't flout rules and I have asked Telegram support to look into the ban repeatedly without any response. I don't know if this happened before or after I switched to a new phone number.

Zxcvbnmghtr:



I still wonder why most people don't like to pay their rent until they are embarrassed.
It is sheer wickedness by most tenants.

I believe this is why some landlords would want to know where a person works before they can grant them tenancy. That doesn't guarantee anything!

As a landlord, just pray God gives you conscientious and honest tenants instead of just focusing on where they work.

KOLLEE:

Spaceship dot com have the sweetest promo with cheaper renewal. one dot com renewal fee is outrageous ($26.99).

But One sounds to me like a more reliable registrar, though. I may be wrong sha.

I'm actually tempted by the 5.99 offer. However, unlike, I would transfer out if I do go ahead with it.

Fourth-Quarter Sales (first to last)

Name: Florida//Bail//Bondsmen (in king)
Source: ED
SP: $399
Type: Re-Outbound
Venue: Afternic
HT: 11 months (one renewal)

Name: STL//Dumpster//Rental (in king)
Source: ED
SP: $495 (BIN)
Type: Inbound
Venue: DAN (Reseller Network)
HT: ~53 days

Name: Play//Bettr (in king)
Source: Formed/Generated
SP: $688 (BIN)
Type: Inbound
Venue: Afternic
HT: 22+ months

And the story...

I did outbound marketing again for the Florida name about five months after I made the last attempt. I had hiked the DAN price to 495 after no show the previous time. But I forgot that I listed it separately on Afternic at the old price - I had been listing only on DAN and syncing with Afternic for some months. Still happy with the sale!

I think the STL name was my first Geo that got sold before doing any outreach and within the first 60 days. That name was actually a punt of sort because I had no luck with previous St. Louis names (like 3 or 4), although this was the first in abbreviated form.

The two names above sold around the first week of October. The third sale didn't come until when I was preparing to leave for a New Year's Eve church programme. 🙂

The third name had been listed on SH for almost two years. I had listed hundreds of names there without a sale since joining in 2020, with many now expired. However, I had only one Premium listing there until around November/December when more were accepted bringing the total to 37. This sale came weeks after I decided to switch the nameservers of the remaining Standard listings to DAN and reduce prices.

More successes for us all in Jesus name. Glory to God!

If to say money dey ehn, I for like be like dem beckplanet. Doing no outbound or very little.

Keyword research and content velocity.

Do you know your keyword research?

Write for keyword you can rank on first page of Google that fits your site needs.

Can you write content everyday for 3 months?

Haggai247 is doing free keyword research for serious bloggers as at last year dec 27 at least that was what he told me.

When I got Tony Hill content renaissance and affiliatesLabs by M.att digi.ddy from him.

A little caveat.

You've to invest in sem.Rush account.

A little heads up he's a course seller that's where I got my courses from.

.
I appreciate your time and response.

On the bold, does it mean you pay at least $129.95 monthly to use SEMRush?

Who give you that notion? The human brain can learn anything at any age.

John Carlton started learning copywriting at more than 35 years and he's one of the best.

If you want to learn any skill get a mentor it cut down the learning curve.

Na person wey no sabi dey day work hard.

I have been a publisher on kdp I made the mistake most people make I was saving pennies to learn myself and it took years before I figured anything.

I was making $$$ steady When I figured everything but I made a mistake my account was banned image copyright.

I leave Amazon go to blogging people say blogging is hard it take years before you can earn.

I say let me not start this blogging like kdp let me invest in knowledge.

I did and guess what in less than 5 months I've recouping all the money spent to set up the blog.

Here's the best part... The blog is not worth more $$$ if I decide to sell it.

The essences of my rant is invest in knowledge for anything you want to learn... It'll be a piece of cake.

Hello. Care to share how you took the blog to earning within five months, please?

DELETED

Nice one right there, Seun! But I bet those who wouldn't be impressed won't. I'm just seeing this thread today by the way.

I knew the forum has grown too big for the existing moderators to moderate. I stated this in an almost heated argument I had in a WhatsApp group about a couple of weeks ago when some people were accusing you along the line you stated.

In my mind, I think mostly younger people and shallow-thinking older folks would accuse you as being complicit in the tribalism. The evidence is right there for anyone who cares to see them.

However, I would ask you to consider looking into the working of the moderating bot. It has banned me several times for posts that weren't against any rules. The post for which a ban was issued would be indicated but no reason provided.

What's special or terrible about marrying at 35? Those of us older than that should do what, sir? I don't pray you have to wait until then, though.

Don't give up yet, if you have passion for what you do. It will eventually pay off in that case. Just keep seeing or learning what you can do to try and improve your opportunities.

You wrote that you're into marketing previously. Why not consider continuing to do that, at least on a part-time basis, for some earnings to take care of your expenses in the meantime. If that's not digital marketing, you may also explore that.
