Properties / Re: Don't Lose Your House To A Bulldozer: The Dangers Of Buying Property In Lagos by sukkot: 5:43pm On Mar 19
That’s the thing, land is a living entity and it rejects people just as humans reject people. Land has all the periodic table elements humans are made off cuz we are ashes to ashes and dust to dust but it also has the spiritual programs that keep humans alive and so land is human. And so when the energy of an area changes you will see lots of people being evicted by the land because their energy no longer matches with the land. In Lagos the land is imbibing that orunmila energy again and now it is evicting those with the greed frequency . It’s embracing those with wisdom frequency

Ok they say long exposure to paint fumes can and will cause loss of lung function. Meaning the oxygen and carbon dioxide ratio in the blood will be wrong and so the heart will try to overcompensate by tachycardia and ventricular rhythms, maybe SVT, and before you know it the whole heart rhythm is out of wack.

with your 2nd to last statement ("cos stardom goes with sacrifices) I just know you are a wise person .
let’s talk about it. This world is frequency and electricity. Frequency is spiritual currency which translates to physical currency. A star has a higher frequency and all lower frequencies are absorbed by higher frequencies meaning the star will absorb all the lower frequencies around him meaning he will absorb all their destiny and power . To be around a star all the time you have to be fortified. This why people die around davido every time

Sukkot, more than ever, a switch to satellite connectivity (such as Starlinks or EuroStar) must be taken more seriously from here on out as a backup for faster Internet connectivity.

Credible reports state that seismic activity is suspected to have caused the disruptions in the deep location were the underwater cables are along the coast of West Africa. Regularly earth tremors or earthquakes take place underwater as well leading to Tsunamis.

seismic activity? Hmmm sounds bogus lol. More like terroristic activities bro 🤣

The Osun company doing the refining and trading of gold has an office in Lagos. Also 1 ounce gold coins to 1kg gold bars are the preferred choices for many global investors. They do silver and platinum refining as well.

I've been reading about folks in Nigeria NOT being able to gain access to the major banking apps and even connect seamlessly to the Internet... especially MTN. I read here on NL that there's been issues with the underwater cables passing through West Africa and that has affected South Africa as in terms of banking and mobile telephony as well.

Hope this isn't some kind of terror attack like what's going on around Yemen with the undersea cables being disrupted by those Houthis of Yemen.

Yes Sukkot, you're spot on. It's far better than any crypto. Osun is the epicenter of gold mining in Yorubaland, while the bandit-ridden Zamfara is a major mining hub for artisanal gold mining. There's a gold processing company that was launched in Osun not too long ago. The Central Bank in Nigeria during the last government also presented some gold bars to the last President. The aim of the CBN was to start buying the raw gold from the artisans and converting them to gold bars instead of having non-Nigerian artisanal miners smuggle them of with no value to Nigeria. Ghana is another hub for gold but you have to get licenced and make sure you're not cheated at the actual mining sites 'cos there are fake gold nuggets in the industry. So, there are tests you have to perform to certify that the gold and/or silver are genuine.

This is the time to hold on to that metal 'cos the price is high. Second, China and India are the major users of gold.

If the guy who was at Cash Converters had waited even longer, he would have got more than the 6000 pounds he was offered. That's how far silver and gold have risen in value.

I'll post some links on your thread later today on the subject matter.


Below is the undersea cables networks:
nah with the guy I think he demanded for a 6000 loan against the gold bar. He could have gotten more if he was selling it. Nice info about the gold in Zamfara and osun. Yeah bro I don’t know what’s going on but all the bank apps are not working. As it is I am stranded with zero kobo cuz I can’t access funds. All my banks apps and the USSD number have refused to work. What am long for now is someone who I can transfer some money to their account abroad and they send me Naira in my first bank account so I have money to go out today. Cuz the bank cards still work, it’s just that you can’t access the app to transfer money into the account by yourself from within Nigeria but if someone had those WorldRemit apps they can do it from abroad. It’s crazy bro lol. As far as phone lines I don’t have any problems with those

Sukkot, the Godfather.
The N4000 analogy cracked me up... meat (3), pounded yam (4), and egusi in the mix... LMAO.

Tbh though, inflation is a killer. Even in the U.S. over the last 100 years, inflation has drastically reduced the amount of food items (such as loaves of bread) that can be bought with 1 USD with ones personal income. The real deal is to hedge against hyperinflation by investing in monetary gold.

Most folks on the street level don't even know this and what's gonna hit them. This is the main reason why all the major global Central Banks that know what's up, from Russia, to China, Iran, the U.S., Australia, etc, are stockpiling gold bars in their bank vaults.

Check the pictorial representation below of how gold is more valuable than the USD over the years:
you are 100 percent correct bro, inflation hit everywhere but some moreso than others. Stockpiling gold is not a bad idea at all. Are there places in Nigeria to buy genuine gold bars ? It would be smart to start looking in that direction. I know these preppers in America all buy gold and silver to stash. Like I was in cash converters in the uk one time and this man came in to pawn this nice huge gold bar. It was a beautiful sight to behold. I think he got 6000 pounds on that day

I still think the period between when Muhammed Ali and Mike Tyson boxed in the professional work heavyweight division were the golden years. Folks back then boxed for the love of the sport... they boxed for REAL!

Very well said... I totally agree with your last sentence. "His MIND needs work."

oh yeah those were definitely golden eras. Everything has been watered down in life cuz of too much media. Over exposure. Saturation. The internet. A blessing and a curse . It’s all about fame now and clout

Semaj77:


I say Ruiz beats Fury because it would be difficult for Fury to use his tactic of clinching unto fighters to weight them down as Ruiz is a better in-boxer and because of his smaller frame , also Ruiz has about the strongest chin presently in the division , he took a solid right punch from AJ which cut him above the eye and it didn't slow him down one bit. The only chance Fury has at beating Ruiz is to adopt the same tactic AJ used - punch from afar and don't let him get too close. Wilder on the other hand will definitely get knocked out before round 5 if he faces Ruiz , he has zero defensive skill and Ruiz still has a stronger punch than him , I put it to you that Wilder will be knocked out so cold he may probably need a stretcher if he faces Ruiz
these are all very likely scenarios but you know boxing is about star power and huge personalities and Ruiz has none of those hence why he did not make the top 5 lol

AJ won with a KO... Congratulations to us all.

I don't know what you've been "smokin" to get this degree of ACCURACY... YOU were right! You spoke with swag, straight-from-the-gut. Lol... grin

NEXT on the list is gonna be Usyk or Tyson Fury (the big Irish man).
AJ has to maintain the no-nonsense mien all the way.

Usyk, Fury, and Wilder are the 3 heavyweight boxers that Anthony Oluwafemi Joshua has to overcome for him to be fully respected as the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.

Full steam ahead.

hehe Chief it’s just common sense trying to deduce these things na. Nothing heavy. We all know fury doesn’t pack any power in his punches so even weak opponents can hang in there with him hence Ngannou hanging in there with him and knocking him down. But AJ has real power. He can clean out that whole division easily but he just needs killer instincts and he will be fine. He has the skill sets to knock all those guys out, it’s his mind that needs work

It's NOT true @Sukkot. The OP gave a very misleading post without even a credible source.

Back then (i.e., 1975 to the late 1970s) the average price of a VW Beetle or Peugeot 404 was N4000. Some creeps just relentlessly push half-truths online and offline while forgetting that there are OGs like us who will counter them.
hehe my Oga Konquest, that’s more like it. But even at that though 4000 today will only get you 3 meat and 4 pounded yam and egusi 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you just ate a whole car 🙆🏽‍♂️👀

Based on this, the UK wins. How come you didn't include France?

Regarding the bold, apart from maybe the US due to its historical population, I dare say elsewhere, blacks aren't accepted by the society they find themselves. Which is largely OK as humans are tribal. Where blacks, especially black Africans, would be accepted is sub-Saharan Africa.
France, hmmm from the region of it I have been to , it’s a huge poverty ridden ghetto full of criminal elements from francophone african countries and North Africa. It’s very cut throat. You get robbed or hustled every corner you turn. I was hustled three times in one day. It’s a heavy sense of desperation in the air. Someone will usher you into a bar and sit a girl beside you for 2 minutes and then demand 100 dollars for the girl sitting next to you and will be willing to kill you if you don’t pay the 100 dollars. It’s that kind of desperation I saw there. Outright blatant criminality and extortion. It’s not a good place. Paris.

If so, I agree. I do agree that mental wellbeing is key as one lives amongst people who look like each other. The US has a significant black population, especially in the south and southeast. Also, there are many Nigerians in both regions. Apart from guns, I don't see the difference in raising children in either the US or the UK. While mental wellbeing is good, money is gooder. Both go in tandem. But I rank money higher than mental wellbeing. So, for that reason, I would have Switzerland or Singapore (the weather helps too) instead of the UK. The option of returning to Africa or even the Caribbean is always on the desk. Dem no tire person blockos to the diaspora. So, when returning, return with a bigger bag, not the small purse the UK offers. Sorry, but I love money, I really do. It offers freedom to choose and I love to be free.

In summary, the US is the best, unarguably.
ok so you are not talking about japa then. You are talking about someone who wants to go and look for money abroad and return home. It’s totally different from japa. To japa is to go and fully integrate your children into that society and to become that society and be at peace and feel fully accepted and a part of it with no intention to ever return unless something unforeseen happens. That’s the spirit of japa is total integration. But you are just describing someone looking for money who don’t mind living in the belly of the beast without fully integrating so long as the money is good. Not everybody is chasing money. Most want a sane society where they feel safe and accepted

Sukkot has come again. grin grin

You forgot Bim Afolami.

Regarding Asia, it has to be East Asia or nothing. Anywhere in tAsia as a black man should be for business or tourism, not paid employment. Singapore is the exception due to geography, but included because it is majority Chinese. The more Chinese people a society has, the higher one's chances of getting paid employment. By this, I mean Taiwan, Mainland China and Hong Kong. Cultural cousins like Korea and Japan are also included. Focus on science and technology-related jobs. Humanities jobs are for the natives unless one was born and bred to navigate the intricacies in language and cultural norms. There are jobs, but you go work o, know the language and adhere to the rules.

The koko is that people have to be skilled. Once the individual is skilled (relevant skills), residence does not play a major role. There are Nigerians working corporate jobs in Switzerland, Finland, Norway, Singapore etc. People just have to be at their very best in order to live a satisfactory life.

P.S. The US is the best place for any black professional. Guns aside, it is a capitalist paradise. Nigerians there are richer than other Nigerians in the diaspora. In fact, I have a hunch that Nigerians in China would be wealthier than those in Europe (this is subject to research). These Nigerians would come behind those in the US. The US is a blessed capitalist heaven, and I love it for that reason. Any Nigerian with work authorisation to work in the US would out-earn every other Nigerian in the diaspora.
hehe bro all these things you are saying though, you are approaching it from a survivalist point of view with no consideration for social and mental well-being. I am talking about japa in the true sense of the word japa and total integration into the new society and not just living in china as some alien entity that cannot fully integrate . 😄 you cannot fully integrate into Asia, if you have children you will not like USA, those European countries you mentioned are too white. Brah just accept UK is the daddy of them all

Well they are getting it all wrong.
Alpha males are like the predators of the jungle. Sex is cheap, any idiot with money can buy sex, one doesn't need to be an alpha male to get sex.
As a matter of fact no true alpha male takes pride in cheap sex.
in fact being an alpha male is determined by how you control other men not how you control women. People who delight in controlling women , the supposedly weaker vessel, are beta males.
