INTRODUCTION<br />
Welcome to the <strong>pilot</strong> edition of our<br />
quarterly magazine aptly called “Money<br />
<strong>speaks</strong>”. In this magazine we aim to bring<br />
you current information about all that’s<br />
taking place in the global economy. We truly<br />
are living in a global village and through the<br />
medium of the World Wide Web the world<br />
has truly become just one mighty ocean<br />
filled where individual nations are like<br />
sharks all competing for the same food.<br />
I doubt if there’s a single nation on this<br />
planet where you wouldn’t find a Nigerian.<br />
There’s a running joke that says that even if<br />
you were to travel to the moon today you<br />
will still meet Nigerians there looking for<br />
one business opportunity or the other.<br />
What is the driving force behind all this<br />
migration? Money! I have said repeatedly<br />
and I believe it is worth repeating that,<br />
<strong>money</strong> isn’t sexist, tribalistic, racist nor<br />
prejudice in any way, it is the number one<br />
unifier of people irrespective of their prior<br />
predisposed prejudices. It is amazing how<br />
whenever there’s an opportunity to make<br />
<strong>money</strong> people become colour blind, and<br />
everything around them turns green all of a<br />
sudden. I have said this in several articles<br />
which I have written on this subject that the<br />
biggest religion in this world isn’t<br />
Christianity or Islam, but “Money”. Why do I<br />
believe this to be true? Because people are<br />
more passionate about pursuing <strong>money</strong><br />
than they’re about pursuing God, and most<br />
of their prayers are centred around financial<br />
breakthroughs, business 1 breakthroughs, job
