twenty years ago, braggarts would speak in millions.
i recall a motivational speaker coming to speak to us peons years ago who said he had just participated in a 'million dollar round table', and that he could not believe he was a part of said table. neither did i.
this year the organization i work for brought him again to inspire us. he is still broke to be in such lowly occupation.
bu8t i digress, nowadays the braggarts need to speak in billions.
1. they turned over 100 million. guyanese dollars 2. this is 480,000 us dollar 3. 200 hundred bananas a week for 52 weeks is 10400 bananas 4. each banana is then sold for 480,000/10,400 = 46.15 cents at the food store.
when I read the title, GOVT Failures, i wondered how they could fit them all in tuesday's edition of the paper. surely they can fill a whole week's edition in installments.
200 bananas a week, we eat one plaintain a day, so if half households in nassau do this, you need 175,000 a week.
but he may be clairvoyant, downgrade is coming and by then, there will be way less than 900 million to buy food with, thererore cutting the imports in half.
they used to say that papaer stays still and lets you write anything on it.
well, tribune reporters sit still and let politicians say anything. Not even asks if it is true that chinese farms in abaco that will send all products back to china.

let me back it up with some 8th grade math:
1. they turned over 100 million. guyanese dollars
2. this is 480,000 us dollar
3. 200 hundred bananas a week for 52 weeks is 10400 bananas
4. each banana is then sold for 480,000/10,400 = 46.15 cents at the food store.

well he looks like a winner this time, these pollsters need to show they use credible methods.
telephone surveys are known to be biased, been in the text books for 60 or more years, these days many do not even have landlines.
they need to stop taking people's money to take phone surveys.
particularly, they need to stop calling my house because i want to know what random sampling methods causes them to call my number 3-4 times a year.
