Business / Re: Jeff Bezos Agrees $35bn Divorce by Hedonisst: 6:20am On Apr 06, 2019
LordAdam:


The Western world is no longer the arbiter of morality.

Asia is more populated, larger, and becoming richer than the West. And guess what, traditional male and female roles are still upheld.

Nobody is entitled to sh*t because they have a vagina. It's not misogyny. It's gender equality.

PS: Kissing a$$ is not the only way to get pu$$*.

Tell them! Wussies acting more feminist than women themselves in a bid to win their affections. How pathetic.
Business / Re: Jeff Bezos Agrees $35bn Divorce by Hedonisst: 5:47am On Apr 06, 2019
LordAdam:


Why are you inflating her contribution?

Jeff Bezos was working at a hedge fund where he hired Mackenzie to be his personal assistant. That's where they met. He grew in the company to become a Senior Vice President living a comfortable lifestyle in Manhattan, and he tagged her along to her becoming an Administrative Assistant.

When he decided to leave the hedge fund and drive across the country to found Amazon, she naturally decided to make the adventure with him because she trusted his judgement. What other choice did she have? Divorce him and continue working as an Administrative Assistant which she got with his help on a ~50k salary in Manhattan.

Of course she tagged along. And she helped him when he was bootstrapping like every one of the tens of employees Bezos hired. Most of her tasks tho' was as basic as her previous job experiences could have gotten her. She was balancing books and signing contracts. The moment the operation became massive and she didn't have any high-level skills to provide, her involvement reduced gradually until she didn't have a place.

At that point Bezos was already a millionaire and she certainly had all the help she needed for child rearing and homekeeping.

Now should she get part of Bezos' wealth because she provided emotional support when he was making the transition and the first couple of months when they were bootstrapping from a garage, sure. But is that support worth $35b? Hell-f*cking-no!

If she deserves $35b for driving a car from New York to Seattle and being a makeshift bean counter for a couple of months? What does Joe deserve for busting his a$$ at Amazon for 20 f*cking years? What does Jeff parents deserve for giving him their life savings, over $400k, as starting funds? Jeff himself told his parents there was a 70% chance it'd tank, and they devoted savings from working for decades without even understanding what the Internet was.

If Amazon failed, Mackenzie may have divorced him, like is so often the case, and remarried some guy who'd keep the lights on. While his parents would certainly have lost all they had and lived their retirement days in penury.

All of that said, as much as Mackenzie gets some recognition for not sitting at home all through and claiming she somehow should at least get $65b; $35b is generous for her. She literally got that $35b for f*cking the right person, not because she earned it.

There's no way you'd convince me that a personal assistant turned spouse turned amateur bean counter somehow earned $35b. If that was the case, most of us should be trillionaires. For heaven's sake, she studied English. ENGLISH! There's no English graduate on this planet whose skillset is worth $1b, much more $35b.

Given that sapiosexuality is ambisexual, permit me to profess my undying love for you.

Yes she is..who needs a cheating man anyways. Just get the money and move on. I believe she is happier than 90% of the world's married women. Life is good sometimes when you are single/divorced.

Will you shut up! "who needs a cheating husband", yen yen yen. So a hardworking and prosperous man should exclude himself from all the wonderful adventures that his money can afford, just to stick to your parasitic, monotonous, washed out self in the name of faithfulness? In which world does that happen?

Because Jeff is a mumu jew man, girls like you can have mouth to talk. Try that with Donald Trump who is a bloody ass real man and indulges himself as he should, with impunity, marriage or no marriage. Divorce settlement my foot.

You better wake up from that slumber and smell the coffee.

Politics / Re: Only A Creative Government Can Pay 30,000 Min Wage. by Hedonisst: 6:58pm On Apr 04, 2019
mekaboy:
Like I said earlier, a cabal driven government cannot create wealth. Their only source if revenue is increased tax and borrowing.

For buhari to sign the 30k Nigerians have to pay dearly for it.

Only a private sector driven economy which Atiku/ Obi stood for can efficiently generate enough revenue to implement such.

Mekaboy, your brain is working.

I've told people around me to brace up. This new minimum wage, plus the sheer evil mindedness of Buhari and his government, would mean that everything would be increased - VAT o, fuel prices o, everything. Just watch and see. The inflation rate would be mind boggling.

Thankfully for me, I don't bloody care because my sources of income don't rely on the bastard Buhari and his foolishness. But I have family members who do, so it would indirectly affect me if the looming hardship sets in. It would be worse than the depressive recession of 2016.

Why do u guys always claim Lagos Lagos... If not that it was a capital city before, it won't be better than. Osun or ekiti state. All you have to make mouth is Lagos... Have u been to calabar? Go and see even Uyo. Come to Enugu, abakiliki is fast catching up. Those places were built by governors hold ur APC to develop ur villages and stop claiming lagos

Don't mind these fools. If you remove Lagos, where in the South West is as lovely as Enugu?

Boy Enugu is a glorious city. Everything complete.

The problem is that these Ewedu people don't travel. And they don't have 'Obi eji eli ego'. So they all stay ensconced in Lagos and run their oily mouths. They are never proud of their own brown roof states and rustic villages. They all prefer to focus on Lagos. Lagos that they didn't contribute to making it what it is today.

My people, you need to learn to be devious in all your ways. Street University is the ultimate Ivy League University.

- Don't register a phone number with your bank's ussd system (go to your bank and order them to unlink/deregister your number from ussd services!)
- My alerts only come in via email.
- I don't have a bank app, and not registered to any bloody app.
- Online transactions are strictly on the bank's website or Quickteller.
- No software tokens (OTP) whatsoever. Only hardware token, etc, etc.

* If you follow these standard precautions, even if your phone is stolen, your Sim card will be totally useless to any potential 'account clearer'. 100% guaranteed.

My people perish for lack of knowledge, but it's okay.

Politics / Re: It Will Be Hard For An Igbo Man To Be Nigeria President by Hedonisst: 5:45pm On Apr 04, 2019
Who gives a fucccccck if an Igbo man is president? Would the Igbo president benefit me directly in any way? How many prosperous Nigerians out there (and they are in their millions), made their fortune, or make a living, because their tribesman is president, vice president, senate president, speaker, CJN SGF, yen yen yen this or yen yen yen that? ? ?
Buhari that is the president now, is milk and honey flowing in Daura?

I'm fed up with all this bullshit. Keep your presidency. The Igbo man is a born hustler and entrepreneur. He would prosper. He would fleece you off whatever you steal in government and assume ownership of the mammoth wealth grounded in 'verifiable' business. In other words fuckkk government. Go and steal, and we will collect the money from you and appropriate it to ourselves.

It won't hurt to pretend to be smart. Entrepreneurs are puzzle/problem solvers and game changers.

They are driven by an inside force whose sole motive is to MAKE A DIFFERENCE. An entrepreneur's business makes lives of people around better in some way or another. If you have developed a solution to a problem and have found a way to capitalize on it, you can call yourself an entrepreneur. Not just sit behind an account and post videos and 18+ videos, advertise and all. There is more to being an entrepreneur than just making money.

Anyways, this is a free session courtesy of Quora. Be sure not to rant until you've gone through the link.

You're citing a Quora answer for what is essentially a simple English word with a simple English definition. It's demeaning to be having this argument with you, I'm sorry.

No. He is a social media influencer and not an entrepreneur.

How do you define an Entrepreneur? You're funny.

Anyone that is self-employed, that undertakes any venture, that renders any service in exchange for payment, IS an entrepreneur!

Let’s try and keep it civil bro..

I have Been to so many countries I stopped counting and have worked with people from different race and cultures.

From personal experience, I can confidently say that Nigeria has so much talent its crazy.

We just have an unstable society as a result of the political class.

From my experience we don't have nearly enough of "so much talent". It's a game of numbers. If by talent, you mean being good enough to be mere cogs in the wheel, especially when working overseas, or being good enough to reinvent the wheel (which is what our people excel at), then I understand that. Innovators? Outliers? Too few.
