Jokes Etc / Hilarious Moments Of Husbands And Their Wives by Wizberg12(m): 7:39pm On Oct 31, 2015 |
A group of Nigerian husbands gathered at a conference on "How to live in a loving relationship with their wife". The men were asked, "How many of you love your wife ?" All the men raised their hands. Then they were asked, "When was the last time you told your wife you loved her ?" Some men answered today, some yesterday, majority didn’t remember. The men were then told to take their cell phones and send the following text to their respective wife: I love you, sweetheart. Then the men were asked to exchange phones so one can read the other wife's response to the love message.. here are some of the replies: 1. Have you impregnated someone again. 2. That was then, not now. 3. You wan borrow money abi? 4. What did you do again. I won’t forgive you this time! 5. Meaning? 6. Is that a new song? 7. Am I dreaming! 8. If you don’t tell me who this message is actually for, you will die today! 9. You this man! I asked you to stop drinking! 10. Abeg na who be this? |

Hundreds of children dressed up in spooky costumes took over the
White House’s South Lawn to celebrate Halloween with US
President Barack Obama and the First Lady yesterday.
The President was so impressed by this young boy who was dressed
up as the Pope in his Popemobile, that he declared him ‘top prize’.
See how hard the lil toddler made Obama and his wife laugh. So

And #1 is... #1 – Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson (Net Worth: $125 Million) You probably weren’t very surprised to see that the richest wrestler in history is also one of the highest grossing actors in Hollywood of the last decade. Johnson’s father was a professional wrestler, so he got a fast track to the WWE once his football playing days at the University of Miami were finished. Johnson started off wrestling with an unpopular Hawaiian gimmick that never caught on, but when he became a trash talking member of “The Nation of Domination,” he had captured the people’s attention and the “most electrifying superstar” was born. Johnson then turned face (good guy character), and became “The People’s Champion.” His catchphrases and mannerisms transcended into mainstream culture, so Johnson gave up wrestling full-time to pursue his acting career, in a decision that has created a Hollywood icon and made “The Rock” very wealthy. Johnson still comes back to the WWE from time to time, and has fought John Cena in two recent Wrestlemania matches. At this rate, Johnson has a long way to fall before he ever hits rock bottom, and he would probably land on a pile of cash, anyway.

#2 – “Stone Cold” Steve Austin (Net Worth: $45 Million) John Cena might be the franchise player now in the WWE, but he’s not even close to the amount of popularity that “Stone Cold” Steve Austin had as the main man with the company. Austin bounced around for a while between different wrestling organizations before his “Stone Cold” gimmick caught on like wildfire after the 1997 King of the Ring Tournament. Austin has been working as an actor for nearly 20 years in addition to his wrestling career, and also hosts television shows for multiple networks. Austin also has the most successful podcast in sports right now, conducting hard hitting interviews with the biggest names in wrestling. From Austin 3:16 to the iconic phrase, “Hell Yeah!,” Austin created an incredibly marketable persona and the amount of merchandise that Austin was able to sell in the late 1990s was ridiculous, and he’s still banking off his image to this day.

#3 – John Cena (Net Worth: $35 Million) The biggest name in wrestling right now is the current United States Champion, John Cena. Cena debuted in the WWE in 2002 in a singles match against Kurt Angle, in which he nearly won. Cena became a fan favorite and adopted the gimmick of a white rapper who would trash talk his opponents before going toe-to-toe with them in a clear homage to Muhammad Ali. Cena’s gimmick has morphed into the All-American man who “Never Gives Up” and teaches “Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect.” Cena has also done some acting work, but not in a full-time capacity as wrestling is his first love. Still, Cena is the current face of the company (despite repeatedly informing us that we can’t see him) so he makes loads of money in salary and endorsements. Cena is 38 years old right now, but it appears he has plenty of time left in the WWE.

#4 – “Triple H” Paul Levesque (Net Worth: $25 Million) It’s hard to believe the guy that debuted more than 20 years ago with an awful name like “Terra Ryzing,” would still be a big time name in the WWE. Levesque worked with the WCW for a brief time before coming back to the WWE with another gimmick of Hunter Hearst Helmsley, a blueblood New Englander who looked down on the fans. Thankfully, Levesque’s character was repackaged into the “Cerebral Assassin” known as Triple H, and he ended up meeting the love of his life, who just happened to be the boss’s daughter, Stephanie McMahon; the two have been married for over a decade, and Triple H is now the COO of the company with a salary of $1.5 million per year. Triple H went from “terrorizing,” to assassinating, to corporate America: the natural pedigree of a businessman.

#5 – Kurt Angle (Net Worth: $20 Million) The only professional wrestler involved in actual wrestling after college in his career, is Kurt Angle. Angle won gold at the 1996 Olympics in heavyweight wrestling “with a broken freakin’ neck,” and he is sure to let everyone know about that. Angle then got into pro wrestling, where he went fairly unnoticed in ECW and the NWA before being signed in 1998 by the WWE. Angle debuted with the company the next year after training and quickly got a big push from the writers as an American hero that preached the three I’s of “Intensity, Integrity and Intelligence.” Angle also played a heel (bad guy), which was ironic considering his finisher was a modified ankle lock, character that was very memorable before shipping off to TNA and becoming the highest paid wrestler with their company. You still suck, though, Kurt.

#6 – “Big Show” Paul Wight (Net Worth: $20 Million) These days, you can hear chants of “Please retire!” being hurled from the crowd towards the 43 year old Paul Wight, but the giant probably can’t hear you all the way down there; if you were making as much money as he was, you probably wouldn’t give any hecklers a second thought anyway. Wight was known as “The Giant” during his days with the WCW, but Vince McMahon changed it when he came to the WWE, as not to confuse him with Andre the Giant. Wight became “The Big Show” upon his WWE debut and was dubbed the largest athlete in the world. Wight has had a long run in wrestling, with a career that has spanned 20 years. Wight has also been involved with a few movies and television productions to help him earn extra fame and fortune, and he’s been pretty frugal with his money, but never his appetite.

#7 – Chris Jericho (Net Worth: $18 Million) Chris Jericho (who was born as Chris Irvine) is the only wrestler on our list from the Great White North of Canada. Jericho became a big name during his WCW days as a solid wrestler and an incredibly entertaining microphone personality. Jericho hopped over to the WWE before the walls of WCW were broken down and was immediately thrust into the main event. Jericho was one of the few wrestlers that found long term success after coming over from the WCW, and is still making appearances for the company. Jericho also has a successful autobiography to his name, and is the lead singer of the internationally successful rock band Fozzy. You can also listen to his podcast each week, which has been quite successful thanks to substantial revenue from advertisers. Maybe someday Jericho will actually buy a decent haircut.

#8 – Shawn Michaels (Net Worth: $17 Million) Shawn Michaels was born Michael Shawn Hickenbottom, but it was rearranged to better fit a wrestling persona. Michaels made his debut in the WWE all the way back in 1987 when he was just 21 years old, becoming a part of the Rockers tag team with Marty Jannetty. During the down years in between the Hulk Hogan era and the Attitude Era, Michaels was a headliner bringing in a fortune for himself and the company. To prevent Michaels from defecting over to the WCW like other top wrestlers in WWE at the time, Vince McMahon gave Shawn Michaels a sizable monetary incentive to stick around. Michaels still works with the company in a small capacity, but he has not been involved in a singles match since he was defeated by the Undertaker at Wrestlemania. Only time will tell if he will bring sexy back to the WWE.

#9 – “The Undertaker” Mark Calaway (Net Worth: $16 Million) Back in the late 1980s and early 1990s, pro wrestlers were given gimmicks of people that had everyday jobs; there was a dentist, a barber, a trash man, and even a worker with the Internal Revenue Service. One of the gimmicks of the “glory” days of wrestling was that of “The Undertaker,” the mysterious giant that didn’t talk and popped out of tombstones with a blank, intimidating gaze; a far cry from the boring and morbid reality of the actual occupation. Calaway has been in the WWE ever since 1990, all under the same name, but his gimmick changed a couple of times during his career including coming back to life (did we mention he was considered dead?), and then “dying” again: the epitome of realism. You don’t see the 50 year old wrestle much these days, but Calaway has been making annual appearances at Wrestlemania, where he had a streak of 21 wins at the event before losing to Brock Lesnar in an unforgettable Wrestlemania moment.

It’s not just the cable viewers that bring in big money, as unaired house shows, pay-per-views, and their very own network have made the WWE worth more than $1 billion. The success of professional wrestling has made many of the top acts filthy rich; they have given their bodies for the sake of entertainment and have earned their millions of dollars in sweat and blood. Which wrestlers are the richest, though? Here are the top 10 wrestlers that have pulled in the most money, but others were disqualified due to technicalities; Vince and Stephanie McMahon have been in wrestling matches and run the WWE, but they were never full time wrestlers. Only talent that was considered full time at one point made the list, and here are the 10 richest wrestlers that have ever stepped into the squared circle. #10 – Mick Foley (Net Worth: $15 Million) On a list of wrestlers who have taken the most abuse, Mick Foley would probably be at the top of the list. Having lost part of an ear and several teeth, Mick Foley has put his body through the wringer. Foley spent time wrestling all over the world, but his most notable run came when he was in the WWE. Foley had three different characters within the company, playing Mankind, Cactus Jack, and Dude Love. Foley was a fan favorite because of his likeable appeal, even if he didn’t have the look of many other wrestlers of the period. The “Hardcore Legend” is still busy these days, but not in wrestling; he is working in the stand-up comedy circuit and an accomplished author. Foley has had a couple of best-selling children’s books that have netted him a fortune, proving you can’t really judge a book by its cover. source: www.myfirstclasslife.com/oh-yeahhhh-10-richest-wrestling-superstars-of-all-time/10/

Celebrities / REVEALED: How Linda Ikeji Really Mints Her Billions by Wizberg12(m): 11:22am On Oct 24, 2015 |
Judging by the attitude of some Nigerians to Linda Ikeji’s acquisition of a half a billion Naira home in upscale Banana Island, Ikoyi this week, a lot of people don’t believe she earns her money only from blogging. Several people have started circulating rumours that the Forbes ranked successful blogger makes money from other undisclosed sources. One particular rumour confidently making the rounds is that Ms. Ikeji got some dirt on a politician and approached him and that the politician compensated her with a N500 million home. The story is as fake as it is unbelievable but Nigerians often need a reason to doubt genuine success, especially when there is a feeling that your success should not pale in comparison. Whilst there may be some genuine grievances in some corners about when Ms. Ikeji or her more outspoken younger sister brag about high end purchases like thousand dollar shoes and bags, Linda’s intentions are genuine. She is not seeking to stir up envy but trying to help young Nigerian women forge a new path. Traditionally most young women rely on men for even their most basic of needs, Linda’s entrepreneurial success and business acumen help to demonstrate that there is an alternative to the age old tradition of “money for hand and back for ground”. So how much does Linda really make and how did she move from “Mushin to Mohits” in a sense in just about a decade without joining politics, or sleeping around with politicians. The Herald in this report has uncovered how Linda really makes her billions. 1. Google Adsense: According to information at our disposal, Linda Ikeji and bloggers in her bracket typically make $50,000 to $80,000 monthly in income from Google. So that means Linda makes N10 to N16 million per month in Adsense revenue. 2. Headline Banners: Linda charges N1 million per month for a 728 by 90 banner ad, the ad that appears around the Welcome To Linda Ikeji Blog placeholder when you log on to the site. Jumia has reportedly paid Linda N12 million for the whole year and their banner ad remains on the desktop version of the site 24/7. Occasionally other advertisers also opt for the space and Linda will share the space for two companies. So in a year Linda makes a minimum of N18 million from this space. 3. Side Banners: Linda charges between 500k and 700k per month for side banners and she has a minimum of 6 to 8 advertisers at any given time bringing her earnings to a minimum of N3 million monthly. 4. Sponsored Posts : Linda reportedly charges 50,000 per sponsored post and she reportedly does about 5 to 10 of these a day which brings her daily potential earnings in this regard to N500k and monthly total to N15 million. Here is an example of a recent sponsored post on LIB http://www.lindaikejisblog.com/2015/10/martell-300- promo-win-your-very-own#more 5. Page Takeover: Should you log on to the Linda Ikeji blog on a desktop site now, you will notice an MTN advert in the background. Our sources tell us that cost N4 million per week. So potentially Linda makes N16 million monthly from that space. On an aggregate Linda can make anywhere from N50 million to N 70 million per month in advert revenue. When you do the calculations that comes to a maximum of about N 840 million per year or almost a billion. Now you see why Laura says her big sis is Linda “Chopping Money” Ikeji. A report from PWC released late last month said the Nigerian media industry is currently valued at $4 billion but projected to grow even bigger by 2019, so it means Linda may be chopping this money for quite a very long time. www.naijamember.com/2015/10/24/revealed-how-linda-ikeji-really-mints-her-billions/ |
