I am currently in a dilemma now. I want to build my personal residence (A 5-Bedroom duplex) but i am a bit confused right now and the reason is this: I am someone who loves privacy and compound space. I usually cringe when i see beautiful houses but with no adequate surrounding space. I detest seeing cars and other facilities cramped in a tight space. Now i want to build mine and here's the options that's getting me confused.

Option A-: Buy a plot of land in a highbrow area at an assumed price of maybe N50M
Option B-: Buy an acre of land (6 plots) or more in a middle-class area at the same assumed price of N50M

If you were in my shoes, which would you choose?? I am still a young man and still not married but i intend to settle down soon. Please people, i need your input.

Ogas in the house, kindly help me with a little piece of advice. I ran a scan on my Infiniti Fx 35 and it returned the code P1211 (ABS/TCU control unit) and P0442 (Small leak detected). Please where do I go from here? I have spent house studying the vehicle manual but got no helpful info. I will appreciate any info. Thanks

Ikengawo: Agberos represent a powerful political tool that anyone who wishes to win Lagos will not ignore and more importantly will not fail to utilize. If Fashola goes to war with them, they will strike back in that they're very organized and turn Lagos into a hellhole for everyone. If left alone and even ed, they can intimidate enemies, rally , and spread your name. Same for area boys. Politicians can create personal armies with these men and thus it's often hard to get rid of them because their patrons are often allies.
You have said it all......

I am a Die-Hard Tupac's Fan and i will remain so until the end of time...................But on a more serious note, i see a correlation between Tupac and our DaGrin. Their rap style, their struggles, and they both foresaw their death.

googlepikin: dude i dont blame you for dis your false news,i blame the anti-igbo person that quickly took it to front page with no source, pictures or asking.i called up to 6 students from that area and non of them have heard about it.i called my cuzin who is a police man in owerri he said its a lie.so who be dis anti igbo wey carry dis kind news enter front page. besides nekede is not next door to obinze Army barracks
I am not a journalist, I just reported what I was a live witness to............and I couldn't take pictures because of how tensed the atmosphere was. Now, I repeat, a hole was dug right at the centre of the road by the anti bomb squad and the bomb was buried and detonated,....it wasn't defused. I stand by my report. Poly Nekede is not in session now. And before you scream blue murder, please kindly call someone in Umuoma community and confirm. I just got info now that the development is been kept on a low profile to avoid widespread panic............Enough said.

Uch87: [color=#770077][/color][right][/right][b][/b][b][/b]I'm in Nekede Owerri, as early as 4:am today Police were at Assemlies juntion in Fedponek keeping watch. I'll investigate this news to know how factual it's
You are at Assemblies, just take a five minutes drive to Umuoma, beside the ATS base and ask questions.....

Policewoman: This story is false. I just called a DPO in Nekede and they confirmed not hearing or seeing such.
Which DPO did you call?

amarilo: Complete lie, hausa's are not in nekede or iheagwa(futo) so where did he see hausaa running. Iheagwa and nekede are some miles from about 20 to 30 minutes drive from owerri city where the hausas are.
Fool, there is a small Hausa community at Nekede, Holy family junction to be precise......just beside Chrianth fuel station.

Gboliwe: How would a bomb within nekede affect futo or training school? Do u knw the distance? Was it a nuclear missile?
LOL.....I said the bomb was discovered in a shop behind police post.
222Martins(m): 7:19pm On Jun 08, 2013
gboss4sure: Why are they hausa running to the barrack, lol.
They were running to avoid being tagged Boko Haram and lynched. Also, today is the sit at home Massob day, so i guess they must have been on high priority alert, waiting for any eventuality.

sheyie2007: you just falsified your claim with this post
That is your own cup of tea.....I have nothing to prove to you and I have nothing to gain by dropping false info. Please if you have anybody in Owerri or Nekede, call them to confirm. Thank you.

He uses the social media, he simply offers to sell you stuff he claims he has or knows someone who wanna sell. Then he gradually gains ur confidence. And even meets чσu, then he manipulates you into paying part of the money, then he disappears. In my own case, he claimed there was a car, sumone he knew wanted to sell. So he manipulated me into dropping 225,000 naira as deposits, to secure it. He was going to deliver the car himself or get someone to bring it from abuja to lagos...he said. I actually would av given him more, cos he kept persuading me to. I didn't think any thing was wrong @ first, since he said he was working with Julius Berger and even showed me pictures. I even had sumone I knew in Abuja, who is also his friend on facebook ask around abt him,but she said she heard that he works with Julius Berger and lives in Abj. So I fell for it.

Well, he made away with the money. And he's been on the run...that's it. I understand he's done it to others. I'm yet to get info about the format he used on them tho'.
Assumption, the mother of frustration. Nothing destroys faster than assumption and unfortunately,...most people especially ladies live on assumption. "I thought", "I hoped", "I wished", "I prayed", etc.

2jideofor: Lol! I am a domain flipper. With coupon codes, you can get them for cheap $0.99-5
Right from the first day i ventured into online business, i have never bought a domain name for anything above $10. What a load of crap!!! What special advantage does a .NG or .Com.Ng give me that will make me pay N5,000 for it? Unless they are selling ready made PR domains.

Iroko is a million dollar company based on capital raised from investors, but funding does not translate to profit. I know some low key companies here in Nigeria that are more profitable than Jumia and IrokoTv while still running on low overhead.

Determining whether mathematics is important in life depends on your career choice. However, the fundamentals of mathematics which is addition, subtraction, multiplication and division is relevant in all walks of life. For instance, i don't do too much mathematics in business; i allow my ant to handle complicated transactions or financial statements. But when it comes to investing, having a grasp of mathematics is very important because you need to deal with things such as compound interest, ratios, etc on almost a daily basis. Now for those who hate mathematics or can't seem to understand it, your solution is simple.......Get a financial adviser, personal bookkeeper or ant and your problem is half solved. But it pays to know the basics of mathematics. Just my 2cent

I beg, I am not a stock guru, but I know how to detect stocks that will good stocks. I am just like every investor on the exchange.
Sir, please i never called you a stock guru; and i personally forbid being called such because no man has monopoly over knowledge. I called you a savvy investor....meaning a knowledgeable and sound minded investor. Secondly, don't categorize yourself as being like every other investor on the exchange because majority of individual investors in the market are mere speculators or gamblers.

Seun:
WTF are you talking about again? WTF does anything we are talking about have to do with Politics? Are you just trolling?
Do you think with your brains at all? Why should i stalk or troll you? I said investing, unlike politics is a sensitive subject and people shouldn't just give or receive information anyhow? So what does that have to do with trolling? You quoted my thread and i responded; is that what you call trolling? You claimed you know nothing about investing, yet you are busy telling people that the market is struggling; a market you know nothing about. Now let me tell you this: When it comes to the subject of investing especially stocks, please shut your mouth and let the savvy individuals like maine and stockbull talk because you are totally incompetent.

Seun: @22Martins: So what? I have made no secret of the fact that I have not invested in any stocks, so obviously I am not yet a stock investor. Therefore I don't understand the relevance of the 'point' you seem to think you are making. I know that I need to practice stock analysis and I have suggested that we should create a thread where we can practice it together after learning the basic principles. But until I become good at it, I will not buy any shares. I think not participating is much better than losing the game.
Oga Seun, I laud your honesty and straightforwardness. However, business and investing are subjects quite from politics. Just a little misinformation can ruin your life, that is why we need to be careful of the advice we give and take.

Really?? It must be a miracle that I am still alive then, thanks to God. Wish I were a broker, I haven't done badly with the little I know and have done working with my broker since 2002. Sadly, I cannot share my portfolio with you to validate the formula I gave in my earlier post.
On the other hand, it does not appear that you are an investor and probably have no clue as to how the Nigerian capital market operates.
Seriously i thought you were a broker because you are giving exactly the type of crap advice most brokers give. Secondly, judging by the type of advice you gave, I am really contemplating between you and I who is really an investor. First you advised people to invest only in blue chip stocks, next you tell them to invest with greed.........I think you take too much advice from your broker or you are simply a gambler that thrives on luck.
