๐ฉ๐ช Germany's Stuttgart 21 rail project just got pushed back to 2031, 2 years past the last revised target and a full 12 years late on its original 2019 opening.
The newest delay: over 1,000 km of cables laid wrong, most of which now have to be ripped out and replaced.
Costs have ballooned from โฌ4.5 billion to โฌ11.3 billion, all of which Deutsche Bahn has to eat alone.
This is the country that used to set the European standard for efficiency. Now it's Stuttgart 21 and the Berlin airport that took 14 years to open.

Pensem no seguinte cenรกrio: se o Brasil ou qualquer paรญs do Sul Global barra um รกrbitro europeu com passaporte diplomรกtico na porta de uma Copa, a FIFA desfiliaria a nossa federaรงรฃo e exigiria sanรงรตes na ONU antes do meio-dia. Como sรฃo os Estados Unidos deportando o melhor รกrbitro africano por pura paranoia xenofรณbica, a cartolagem vai engolir o vexame em silรชncio absoluto. A lei internacional sรณ opera de cima para baixo.

The richest ward in Kenya is actually in Eastlands Nairobi, Lower Savannah Ward at a rate of just 3%. The poorest is Katilia ward in Turkana at 99%.
That is a good picture of inequality in Kenya.
Visiting Monaco actually left me traumatised & something I might one day right about, but something just doesnโt sit well when you experience this level of wealth.
The level of Wealth exhibited in Monaco this week is nothing short of astonishing, this is a $5 million Bugatti parked untop of $35 million Yatch floating next to two Mega yatch ๐ญ
What do I do to achieve this level of wealth? ๐ฉ
What people quoting these donโt understand is that almost every one of these yachts is owned by families compounding their wealth for centuries
Warren Buffett type shit but on steroids
You simply cannot beat it by โlocking inโ for a year or two
I was in this world briefly. 3/4 months. Iโm
not talking barstool/mcafee stuff, this was a different level of money. If you have been to Anjuna the day after F1 Monaco, or Annabelleโs you know. I didnโt belong one bit. I felt like I was seeing a James Bond movie in real life. Cool to see but I was just not made for it. I went for a run one day with someoneโs wife staying at the house I was at and I made a joke that Iโm still going to be in shape like Tom Brady at 40+ bc I stretch everyday and her exact quote was โI donโt know who that is, I spend most of my time paintingโ I got lost in Monaco with a girl and couldnโt get a cab back to cap ferret and had to pay 20k for one night at a hotel and they had a bubble bath ready before I even got into the room. There really is a different level of the world where you fully would never ever fit in.
I volunteered for a weekโs medical camp at Bamba Kilifi. Day 1 picture heading to the camp. Day 4 picture night briefing as medics. (See dates and times)
Look at our expressions.
We saw conditions I had never seen before and left exhausted, traumatized and helpless. Binadamu?
