Hello my peeps,
God is good, and that is an understatement, I praise his name
Picture this - Before the recession hit Egypt of old, God caused a Young Man full of His Spirit to be strategically placed that Egypt prospered in the time of credit crunch / recession.
Not only that the young man was able to Preserve his very own chosen people Israel .
Got this in my inbox and thought it may be a comic relief for someone

BUREAUCRATISM: You have 2 cows; the Government takes both, shoots one, milks the Other and throws the milk away...
TRADITIONAL CAPITALISM: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your herd multiplies, and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income.

Cow dropped dead.
A FRENCH CORPORATION: You have two cows. You go on strike because you want three cows.
A JAPANESE CORPORATION: You have two cows. You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. You then create a clever cow cartoon image called Cowkimon and market them World-Wide.

A NIGERIAN CORPORATION: You have two cows. You hire relatives for peanuts to look after one whilst you feast on the other without sharing. When your other cow dies from exhaustion, you blame your relatives for ruining your business.
Talking of economy, I need a new job o, I have been trying to think of what business I can go into, apart from my increasing passion for photography which I will keep educating myself on.
This is a good time for me to diversify and think of what I can do for myself but can't just seem to get my thinking juices to flow.
So people any ideas!!!
P.S
I have not been replying to comments lately, no vex, it's not snobbery just sheer laziness and finding words in my head to respond to each person.

LOL... funny...
esp the American one... so true!
everyone is looking to diversify these days... it's necessary... what do you absolutely love to do? apart from photography.... plan stuff? cook? read?....
hehehehe...tooo funny!
Me too i also want to diversify ooo. I feel stuck..:(
I need inspiration from above!
Enh hen, and there i was feeling snobbed!
Funny list.
I know it sounds like a cliche (in fact it is a cliche), but a good place to start with regards to diversifying would be top ask yourself what you would do willingly even if you werent being paid. Once you've settled on what that is, then begin to think about how you can make money out of it
...sorry, i meant to add - it worked for me
Good advice from UCS, I think. Can't really think of anything more to add. Interesting 'political' analysis. 'Naija one - priceless:-)

being zimbabwean i'd say you either dont have those two cows or the price for those cows is in the billions or is it trillions!!...such a sad situation!!
I like the cow analysis, really eye opening and funny
Re the job, just pray for God to show you what to do and he will and with your passion for photograpy just keep improving your skills and who knows it will take you where you never dreamth of.
LMAO! I just wonder how people come up with such..
Eeya all the best with the job hunt/startin of business..um..what other passion(s) do u have? U cud develop somn from there..good luck!
*coughs* *clears throat*...:0)
about diveristy... i would ask what is your hedgehog concept? simply means what are you deeply passionate about?, what can you be the best at? and finally what will drive your encominc engine ( what will get you there?)
i just finished reading Jim Collins Good to Great. Its about coporations but then people make up coporations. All the best with finding your hedgehog concept.
I enjoyed reading your blog. Blessings to you.
** You should be on my page on facebook.
Instead of me to sleep I'm here reading bovine economics. Tchhiiiew I'm not a serious person.
I love the way you start your posts acknowledging God!
As per the business, is there any other thing you're passionate about that you can turn into a business?
Hahahahaha! very funy...........how are you my sister? I'm sure all's well....just thot to say hello!
Nice funny post!
someone has accused you on my blog o..
this is still very funny.
Don't forget to join us in the online rally this Friday October 31st. Just use "FREE JONATHAN ELENDU NOW!" as the title of your blog post and FaceBook Status. Visit the Facebook page here or stop by Nigerian Curiosity.
Take care my sista!
Ha! I can relate to your laziness in regards to commenting. Same here.
OMG! That email was sooo on point. Only in America do we hire analysts and consultants for EVERY thing! LOL
Okayyyeeee oooo !!!!!!!!!, there is a reason why it's easier to comment as and when they are dropped - lol
From the so called cliche advice to hedgehog to trillion dollar cows to the campaign, to being accused on someone's blog and all that enjoyed or learnt something from the write up.
Sorry I can't respond to everyone o but thanks a bunch for all the advices ... mwah i.e. I dey throw kiss anyhow catch if you can :)
God bless y'all real good.

I'm also looking for somthing to do o
i kept my fingers crossed for the Nigerian one.
anyways about the job thing
i haven't got the best of "ideas"
but from where i stand having a passion for what u do will be beneficial to u and the business
but in reality, we still need to put food on the table.
prayerfully decide and don't PROCASTINATE!!
