@tobyasky This man eh you consume football matches like better jellof with fried plantain and chicken. You work harder than some talent spotters . More grease brother..
This is why when faced with Sankara's dilemma of 'water for all or champagne for a few', smart nations always choose water for all.
Because when everyone has a solid baseline, the elite can truly thrive and become exceptional. Their "champagne" can be meaningful.
But when most people are dirt poor, the elite become stupid, mediocre bastards who cannot pave their own roads, organise their own garbage collection, and prevent their own Ikoyi from regular flooding, constant foul odour, and mosquito infestation.
Charterhouse my ass.
@Wizarab10 Full pitch is a zonal game, you can even catch a break and sip water while the ball is in play, in 5v5 no chance till the ball is out of play
@tobyasky The smart ones find something to hold onto while still playing, eg Beckham. He did it so well that we felt he never went away .very few were able to achieve that, most got stuck in a phase that is so short .
@Ol0ye The child of the poor man will be envying the child of the rich because he saw the rich kid eating noodles and pasta,while his own parents fed him soup daily with fresh veggies. We live in an upside down world in Nigeria.
Prof Osuide cured me of the "Joy Trap" with one sentence. "Nothing impoverishes a man faster than unbridled generosity." My father used to tell me that he was the most stingy when he had money. I didn't clock it until much later. We never had to support him after retirement.
The $1M conversation on Nigerian Twitter is funny because the first thing you should do when you come into money in bulk is to leave it. Pretend it doesn't exist for at least 3 months. Never jump into investing in anything you don't know very well. I am talking from experience.
Marrying young does not equate to rushing into marriage. Marrying late does not equate to taking your time.
You can be old and desperate.
If a 21 year old takes 2 years dating somebody and has cohabited with the person for about 6 months in those 2 years and decides that they are compatible enough for forever, they did not rush into the marriage. That took 2 years.
If a 33 year old lady meets a guy interested in her and tells him to make his plans clear because she wants to marry within 6 months, she is rushing into marriage. Being 33 does not mean she took her time. If a 36 year old guy meets a lady and tells her he wants to marry her within the next 3 months, he is rushing into marriage. There is nothing like he knows what he wants. That is desperation.
The concept of rushing into marriage is about due diligence on the person and the relationship before making marital commitment. It has nothing to do with how old you are. From observation, older people are the ones who seem to rush into marriage.
Evlenirsen pişman olursun. Evlenmezsen de pişman olursun. Çocuk yapsan da yapmasan da pişman olursun. Kierkegaard bunu 200 yıl önce şöyle söylemiştir:
"Neyi seçersen seç pişman olursun. Çünkü sorun tercihlerinde değil yaşanmamış bir hayatı romantize etmendir. İnsan her daim gidilmemiş bir yolu cazibeli ve gizemli bulur. Bu yüzden mesele en doğru seçimi yapman değil. Hangi pişmanlıkla yaşayacağını seçip karar vermendir."
Sen neye karar verdin?
@ciceroxandros@tobyasky It became boring at some point, Spain took it to the euros and world cup, it was boring to watch . As for tiki taka Barca, messi added the necessary excitement.
@tobyasky You are right,we are not really religiously attached to football ilebwe make it to be, we chase shifts as if it's us that has the most pressing financial issues.
