Online Businesses/MLMs – My Stand!


This is coming as a digression and a distraction from my rest and vacation, but I need to address this quickly, before my silence is used as a marketing tool by some. I just got a call today from someone who heard from someone that I was claimed to be the leader of a particular MLM, this is absolutely wrong! I had taken a public stand by making comments on some particular posts on this site, indicating my lack of belief in some of these programs, if that does not read clearly enough, let me further add my thoughts here.

I also got a mail, from one of the most authoritative persons on the nigeria net today, asking me if my position on some online programs won’t affect my good name when they come crumbling. I replied him, explaining my stand, and I think all my friends and well wishers online also need the insight of my response. I love the way business is moving online, it’s giving many youths a chance and it’s creating the long awaited alternatives to yahoo-yahoo. Hopefully, the plans for giving the Nigerian youth a voice will be achieved first from the internet. Nobody needs to really agree totally with me on my stand on any of these online businesses though… it’s MY stand, and I’m just a little part of the universe.

Dubai 002 – Vision


One of the things that has continued to marvel me about Dubai, is how it has made use of nationals of other countries to sell properties that do not currently exist. Yeah, you read that right, many developers and property brokers in Dubai, make a living by selling properties that do not currently exist.

If you go around town like I do… like a hunting dog looking for the next rabbit..lol, you are likely to see opportunities all over Dubai. Everywhere you turn, there is a signpost about business and investment opportunities, and curiosity always gets the better side of me, so I ask. One scene that never ceases to amaze me is the one I’m about to describe now, it would have been fantastic, if it happened just once, but over and over again with different people? It’s awesome.

Dubai 001 – Live and Let Live


“A true measure of your worth includes all the benefits others have gained from your successes” Cullen Hightower salesman and writer

I met a couple on Sunday and by Tuesday I had changed my vacation plans. They were representatives of a property company in Dubai, and the information they gave me, was just too good to be true. In case your appetite is getting wet already, save it for my return, I’ll be posting many big and small deals from this my short visit. Our extensive conversation about Dubai made me certain that there are a lot of things Nigeria could learn from this country. I knew coming here would birth many articles too, I’ll just take it one day at a time.

There are lots of lessons to learn from Dubai, both for us as individuals and for us as a nation Nigeria. It is not only amazing that we were virtually in the same state, if not better, just less than 30yrs ago, before we both discovered oil. Today, any comparism would be mockery. Continue reading →

ClubFreedom, 6k4you and Ecash Channels


“Rest or be laid to rest” – The law of the sabbath

I’ll not be around for a while, and I’ve always wanted that, I need a little rest. I have also been thinking that my lack of online presence should not affect the rolling of the wheels, things should still work, whether I’m around or not. This is the thinking behind the creation of systems. How to make the flow of work independent on particular individuals.

In the light of this I have found some trusted hands who would be at your service, even faster than I would, should you need clubfreedom vouchers, 6k4you vouchers, ecash and egold. They would give you the vouchers at the prices stated on the www.cfvouchers.biz site, they would however provide the prices for ecash at a premium since the 1-2 weeks deadline for registeration and payment can no longer be met for this month. Any payment you make to me from now will have to wait till next months investment – egold or naira.

These names are not only going to be funcitional during my unavoidable absense, but long after. I do not foresee any problems with these ones, but should anything out of the ordinary happen, please feel free to contact me via the contact me button.

You can call them in no particular order…you can stick with whoever you find agreeable with you. Some of these people will be willing to help you sign into any of the clubfreedom programs at a little premium for their time and efforts. Now you have all the options you can have. If you ask me for any of these things within the next 1-2 weeks it will not come quickly. Continue reading →

I am not afraid of failure!


“It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat” -Theodore Roosevelt

It’s 12 midnight already, am about to pack up my laptop and go to sleep, but not just quite yet, I have some thoughts from the events of today that have been inspirational for me, and I think it’s good I share. I have quit trying to please all, trying to please all is one of the sure ways to fail. He who will please all will lose his donkey.

“I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody”  Bill Cosby

There is a world of difference between saying I have failed three times and saying I am a failure. Failing is the birthing place of success.  Some of the things I have done lately has won a lot of applause, and a number of boos.  The worst that can happen is that I fail, but then, I would never be listed amongst the cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat from not haven tried. I’ll rather be an exemplary failure, than some of the timid souls whose specialization is running commentaries about the lives of others. It’s extremely easy to turn the vegetables in the pot with ones tongues…”he could have done like this…” Continue reading →

1st August, 2008… Sneak Preview


Kehinde is an employee of one of the leading telecommunications companies in Nigeria. His annual salary is N8,000,000 amongst other benefits. He is not doing badly for a middle manager. He knows his work well, has savings worth about N2,000,00 and is quite focused. His father is a civil servant, a director in one of the ministries, and his mother is a principal in one of the good schools in Ibadan, where they both live. Their annual salaries put together is less than N2,000,000. They also have life going on well for them, they have done well for their children, and they are reaping the satisfaction of knowing that their children are doing well in Lagos.

Kehinde wakes up at 5:20am to prepare for work. He goes through the normal routine like he was preprogrammed, a man has to work. He has many projects ahead of him, he needs money badly…or at least, more money. He jets out of the house at quarter to 6. He needs to beat third mainland early morning hold up. As he drives through the wee hours of the morning, he tunes on his radio, what is happening in town. He needs to at least catch up with the current events about all these funny financial policies that have become the topic of debates for the past 1yr. He hits the seek button on his Toyota stereo..93.7..94.5..96.9.. he finally gets a channel that mentioned something about the Naira, dollar conversion..yeah that’s it… Continue reading →

Ecash Invest – The Moving Train


Many Nigerian clubfreedom members might be caught napping and loose their downlines in ecash-invest. This is because the deadline to investing in ecash invest for the month of september is August 27. With dynamic compression, people have the opportunity of retaining their clubfreedom downlines, but unfortunately, people will also lose their downlines if they don’t wake up on time and secure their positions.

There is also the growing misconception that you need to have cycled out of Clubfreedom before you can participate in ecash-invest, this is wrong. The simple process is Create a wallet, fund the wallet, register for ecash invest, and fund your forex trading account in ecash invest. This is all you need. Like as all times, many people will be waiting to see results before they become a part of this. Trust me, many people will make hundreds of thousands of dollars in ecash invest, and all they will have as an advantage, was that the read this, and moved. Continue reading →

Should I, Should I not?


Should we answer a fool according to his folly?

Proverbs 26:4 Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him

Proverbs 26:5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.

Growing up, these two verses used to excite me, when I was taught paradox in English, this sounded like the typical example. It was open for debate, two contrasting verses placed side by side in a book that was meant to provide guidance. Do we obey the first command, or the last command? Or was this an error? Or as my studious friends will suggest, let’s check the greek root word for both fools, maybe they are different, maybe one is kesil and the other kelis…lol. But seriously, these are two opposite statements placed side by side in the greatest book of all times (my opinion – not far fetched though, it still holds the guiness book of records most printed, most sold, most retranslated and most in demand book in the world)

I believe strongly that the meeting point of any such paradoxes is wisdom. Wisdom is the right application of total available knowledge in the solution of problems. There are times to answer a fool according to his folly, and there are times to refrain from answering a fool according to his folly. The ability to know the difference in these times, is wisdom!
