Phet Panic Alert:

We just bought so much water, that we could start a water processing treatment plant. So much boxes, we could give a poor country and still remain with enough for another 8 weeks. At the Supermarket, the staff there thought we were insane. What the hell is going on! People are buying water for what reason again? Buy candles and buy food. Don't buy all the water, like your about to make a dam in your house! As in WTF....
Throughout the day, people are moving up and about like disaster is actually on the way, and by the looks of the forecast and the live images online, are just scaring people the **** out their senses.I took this picture this evening right outside a local supermarket. They are just taking heavy precautions to ensure that their business is well off no matter what!

You know that song, either by Black Eyed Peas or David Guetta - I Gotta Feeling, well i have a feeling that tonight's going to be a good night!
Throughout the day, the weather forecast had its own story, and the actual weather was telling another story. Oman people are simple calm down to earth people who like everything the easy way! Now take these people and put them in a natural disaster, and i swear they panic like someone told them we are headed for judgment day! I was at work and it didn't even start raining, and granny was already calling me and telling me to get back home!
You have to take an example, see when the Tsunami Cyclone/Disaster happened, the waves alone dismantled half the islands along the south pacific, yet they did not have a critical breakdown. And when it comes to Arabs getting wet, the drama begins again. 80% of the houses in Muscat are not insured, they are partially owned, fuck it, everything in Oman is on loan or some other kind of slow financial payback system, and our developing infrastructure was absolutely garbage, until the the first Cyclone bump and shook the city 3 years back, leaving the whole place fucked up!
  I took the pictures outside the house on Thursday evening at the time of Panic Alert level 2:


During this storm, i came to realize alot of things, one being the most important thing, was that Oman TV has the worst live broadcast of News in the history of television period. As in the newscaster actually had a real telephone on the desk, and it rang during the 9pm News broadcast, are they serious? All newscasters wear a small earpiece that allows them to get updated with fresh news from time to time during a broadcast, well this caster won, yes the very same one with the phone, as she was getting was headlining the news, i think she was getting info regarding the cyclone, and she totally stopped announcing the news and started nodding her head! ***** your on live TV, not in the make up room!!!! And they said in 2010, they plan to have all Oman Channels in HD (High Definition), HAHAHAHA, I think they should stick on whatever they have now, call it LD (Low Definition). And someone please tell them to change their website, it looks like a drunk HTML designer did it in a bar with an actual paper and pen, or should i say Notepad!!!
** I could not even find a proper logo of theirs on Google. (OUCHH)

Where Is That Real Talk: MCT's Dirty Version!

I am full of shit, i agree. But the rest of the city is worse than me. Seen more than i expected, and i feel like talking it out. MCT has implemented the new NO SMOKING SHIT so that public buildings can be smoke free, even coffee @ your local coffee shack sucks to the extreme. I wonder where this person got this idea of putting up such a rule. If you go clubbing, the entire club smells of cold hype fusion oxygen until you realize that sweat is mixing with armpit and with that alone it creates a distinctive CAUTION!!!!! smell....
Muscat Daily and i think other newspapers printed out some weird *** story... It just caught my attention because i am assuming my company must be there!

They blacklisted 50 companies for some illegal sh** they were doing. As in if daddy has to do the illegal sh** to feed his family, let the man do what he can do. Business is business, nothing more, nothing less. I like the thought of Newspapers in Oman publishing whatever they feel like nowadays. Next they will be paparazzi's snapping pictures of famous locals doing wrong shit.
~101hustle~ came up with a new name for female hustlers, call them HUSTLERETTE, damn, i should talk to Oxford to fictionalize that in the dictionary. Get your money @ all means possible. I would love to promote crime, but crime in Oman is extending to some unique factor that even the law can not do anything about it. Yet one thing the law can do well is is stop you on the road and ask for your driver's license and vehicle's registration!

Was with DJ Moodz this past week, and damn, even though he is a dj who threw a well off Traffic Light Remix, i swear i almost mistook him for an electrician. He had his whole truck opened like he knew what the hell he was doing..... Dj making music and events is not close to dismantling a car/truck... A look inside the man's musical life while driving, hehe, Dj do not kill me for this by the way.




I need coffee, and Lil Wayne on lockup but he has songs coming out with Young Money, tell me how do you consider one a criminal when he can record a videos online. I think his cell got some Wi-Fi internet connection out there...... As in his Twitter account is still active? How the ****?


Do you Swag? How well do you Swag? Well Swagger Dead! If you still Swaggin' then you are nothing but an old downgraded skunk piece of Wh*** Sh**.
I still listen to Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg back to back everyday and my iPod plays the latest tracks all the way, not like the local fm stations who still be playing some old joints they had on the Billboard top ten when your parents got married....
I need someone to evaluate every insane garbage that comes out of my forehead as a thought. By the way, someone quit his job just because me and half the city had alot of Credit.
Nowadays everyone wants to be a terrorist, apparently blowing up things will get you famous and a front page headline and a sweet picture, call it being popular by self demand. Last week or so, some dude blew up a car in Times Square, New York, if some of you know where that is on the globe. (East Coast of USA, Please Google it.) and this one did it @ Karachi Airport.
 Chelsea won the Premier League this year, happy Samsung Bustards, Drogba was happy and sh**, anyways we shall meet them next year! Anyways Enjoy your days until the next blog

My Liquid Coke Addiction

Friends, family, and all others who know me from far and near. I come forward to you with my face paled and heart broken, in pain, sorrow and totally embarrassed to say that i am 100% a COKE ADDICT. Yes, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Coke is in my body, mind and soul all the time. I sacrifice things for a simple shot of Coke. My family has stood beside but i think they have given up hope and are on the urge of either throwing me out the house or sending me to a rehabilitation.
As i sit with my laptop, writing this blog, i have Coke beside me all the time, i take it to work, got a few packs in the car, and sometimes even the police have stopped me on the road for driving under the influence of this so called drug called Liquid Coke.
It all started way back in Africa, but it was a one time thing, like during the weekends and special occasions, and over the years it has steadily increased to the level that if i do not have Coke, i think i might malfunction or stop in some weird kind of way!
My new boss keeps a pack in her office just incase i stop functioning while at work. I know it's loving and caring for a friend but i think it's getting way out of control.
Just last week i had 30 Cokes throughout the day. I swear to you, it will kill me slowly like the fire in hell.
What i beg of you, my friend, my sister, my brother, my love, help me get away from this addiction. I will die, and if you do not care for me, who will?


Anyways, please as your driving towards my house, stop by the supermarket and get me a pack of Coke. haha, Coke addict....... Asad, and you almost believed it........

Coca Cola, Not Cocaine................

Basic Standard Salary In Oman!

Just the other day, i was asked by one of my associates about the standard basic salary of a national, and i quickly replied him, between 150 - 200 OMR if lucky by the way. Ever wondered how people survive on such a salary and this is not even a part time, it is their actual full time salary. The people who plan these rules and regulations of the standard national basic salary to me is just simply pathetic and stupid. How can you work for 30+ days and receive such a salary for all the effort and hard work you have put in. I mean do all the employers think alike to give such a salary even though the company is a strong business within the walls of the country? How can the boss eat, sleep well, while his/her employers suffer to get paid a lousy salary at the end of a month!

I have seen employers who are willing to give their employees a balanced salary according to their needs, and there those huge companies who pay employees like they have money to throw. I have witnessed it with my own two eyes and i am not shocked to say but its very disturbing in some manner.
Look at it this way, most young Arabs would love to get married young and grow old happy with their family, and how do they do it with such a salary? Loans, i presume. So how can you live with credit all your life. Aren't you liable to enjoy the money you work for at the end of the day?
I once came across a decent person who was working for a undisclosed company, and he was in the transport department, driving the company truck for 28 days a month, and i politely asked him how much he was paid, and he told me 140omrs Monthly, then he broke his silence and told me that he has a wife and the his first born was already on the way! It's kind of a touching and saddening moment when stories like this come across you. If you evaluate the way this young man spends his monthly salary, then you do realize that he actually works for no damn reason at all.

Monthly Salary - 140/-
 basic expense  - 50/-
 transportation  - 30/-
2nd expenses   - 50/-
That's already 130/- spent for small expenses. There is no rent or clothing or for the child. Questions arise yet no answer can be found to such a solution. How did he end up in such a position? He has the right to quit that job and look for another occupation that will pay him better, but he decides to work there for a reason!
Now let's evaluate the company he works for. A well known company that makes more than quarter of a million every month and the number of employees does not exceed 35. Tell me, how much is the owner making on a monthly basis after all expenses are deducted and salaries are paid, with the highest paid employee is being paid 800/-?
If this company was to take 50,000/- to pay their employees, would that be bad, and this simple hardworking driver would get a proper salary and have the benefit of living his life in a proper way without struggling at all.

My final question is "Why be so greedy and watch others suffer?" Your the DAMN employer, give your employees a break and pay them a proper salary. Why should you eat and sleep well, drive fancy cars and dress well, while the ones you employee get the job done for you and get treated like the dirt on your sandal?
There are some employers out there who have the heart to understand their employees problems, but for the ones who can't and are ignorant, well remember that all people started with nothing and build something...

5 Series Class Redefined

Developed under the codename "F10," the new 5-Series softens the harder lines of the previous E60 with more conventional-looking headlights and a cleaner front-end design. Despite new European pedestrian safety standards that are expected to drastically alter the design of many European cars for the worse, BMW has managed to maintain its classic twin-kidney grille design with the new 5-Series while simultaneously reducing the length of the front overhang. The BMW 5-Series offers high-performance driving capabilities in a sedan that can carry five adults in comfort and luxury.

The latest 5-Series will offer one eight-cylinder and three six-cylinder gas engine options. Two diesel six-cylinder models will also be available in certain Europe, with the most fuel efficient version being the 47 mpg (U.S.) 520d. The 258 horsepower 528i will be the entry-level model in the U.S. The range-topping 550i model comes packing a 407 hp version of BMW's turbocharged V8. As expected, BMW's 306 hp turbocharged inline-six will be available in the 535i model. A 530d model is also available -- featuring a 245 hp diesel engine. Fuel economy figures vary greatly to match the level of horsepower for each distinct trim level, but numbers begin at 28 mpg highway on the 528i, and drop to 22 mpg highway for the 400 hp 550i model. The next-generation 5-Series features an eight-speed automatic transmission with an all-wheel drive optional denoted by an "x" followed the numeric model name. The new 5 will also have Park Distance Control and an around view monitor system, similar to Infiniti's Around View Monitor.


Images from the Launch of BMW 5 Series @ the Muscat Intercontinental Hotel


I also took the liberty of snooping around the new BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo. To me, it has the same back-end of the Porsche Panamera. I do not like BMW what so ever, but  both the 5 Series bring on a new concept of design and creativity to the table. I would love to own the Gran Turismo, or get it for the lady of the house, would really match her handbags, shoes and all the other accessories that she always has on her. 
 

For more information on these new models, kindly log on to the BMW AG international site. You can search all models and also locate a dealer right near you.

Everyone Wants To Be A Celebrity, In OMAN That Is?

With a population not more than 5 million people including locals and all foreigners, i came to recognize this! Every young self esteemed person would like to have the ultimate package which is owning the coolest car, dressed better than a Pimp, loaded with cash, and of course knows all the girls. I just laugh when i see people like this, because not everyone can be famous in Oman, let alone it be Muscat, but reality speaking why someone is never that too well known is because everyone gossips.
MCT people gossip so bad, they make the movie "Mean Girls" look like an expired production movie trailer. And thanks to facebook, nowadays its even posted there. I can give a list of names of the people i know who like to show off and try to be at the top of every single one's agenda and really at the end of the day, they only qualify to be full of shit.
The way i see it, the only people who deserve A-List celebrity fame are those who do good, have talent and showcase their talent. Music artists like Mista Q, DanZak, AKD, SG, Yung Starz. Dj's who bang the sound into your ear like Dj Z3E, Dj Moodz. Models which i do not know of any, actors who also i do not know any at all, or sportsmen and women of all kind, i.e Fatma Al-Nabhani, and Ali Al-Habsi, and so on.
So who is the next celebrity, hehe. Time to laugh, even my close friends like to get on the spotlight, smile and act like they are a million dollars walking! You know what, please i beg you, do not get a life, stick to yours, and yes you might be popular today, but what about tomorrow and the day after.
"I criticize people because they behave like lame ass people. By the way if you ever made a more than twice and one sucked! Believe me, its because people just did not want to show up. If your business does not sell, but your always in Left Bank handing out business cards, then thats just absolute insane. I swear i wish i could give names of people who do shit like this but really i do not want to be called to the police station for no reason at all. Been there 3 times in a week in March alone. For the ones who think they are smart, and have it all, well good for you, the others who have nothing, but an empty glass, and a 50 Baisa change hanging, then please exit because you suck!
I take the opportunity to sometimes analyze people and what i see is just funny at times. Actually i can tell you, one of the most famous people in MCT is the Nawras guy on his Bicycle doing stunts. Everyone knows him, and he might have more recognition than you.
You know what, keep it low, if you are rich, and want fame, then please go to Milan or Hollywood and let the paparazzi get a hold of you. If your broke and love fame, stick to the F***** protocol and shut the F*** up. If you think you too perfect! well, that's just it, You are not?

7assid People: The Evil Eye

I think you have heard about it, or maybe been a victim of it, but it still does not enter my freaking head at all. The word "7assid", the evil eye as how the local Arabs call it, simply means envy but with a custom touch. People keep telling me that shit like this is true, ghosts are real, yes, ghosts are real, and Casper the friendly ghost is not some super fictional character in cartoons only. This is how i'll break it down to you, if you ever do something, and people congratulate you, then they envy you! Of course they fucking envy you, Dude you just bought a car worth 200,000 Dollars, and they are still suffering from the recession that was like 2 years back. Nowadays everyone gets jealous for even the slightest thing. If your better at him/her, then they wish you bad, and maybe even get hurt and alot of drama that comes attached to to it. Well, me i do not believe all this shit, and yes i call it shit because if someone wishes you bad luck, then he must have a reason, and if his reason is just plain envy, then to hell with him.

Arabs have this thing of congratulating people for everything they do, even if they just get a simple haircut or buy a can of soda. (Yes, this is true). They also say that when you buy a car, you do the slightest thing, people are always ready to say something that might make you crash spiritually!

My words are simple, all this comes and originates from the Eastern African countries, and really to me, it's all bullshit, because if you fail, then do not blame others but yourself. Take for example you start a business, and when you do not do good, how the hell can you say that its because people are wishing for you to fail, damn right everyone is against you because you have decided to take a step forward and people never like to be left behind, but this the shit so face it and deal with it. That's why we say "In God We Trust, In People, Cash Comes First".

In God We Trust, In Man Cash Comes First : (Mr. Blue City)

A profound businessman, owns a couple of large businesses, right. He plays by the book, follows the rules, and smiles at the camera, while telling you the next big thing that will change Oman, modernization from the classic era to the modern era. A dream that looks familiar to that of our neighbors, the Emirates. My question is, sometimes something can look so real, and so perfect, yet it is only there for us to see and not feel. A city built on the northern beach sands of Oman, a city, in-fact a "BLUE CITY".



Well, i really do not feel like typing a whole lot of B.S, and story cut short is that "The Omani population was sold into an imagination while the seller was @ home calculating his income, which jackpot estimates it at $900 million. Well, if your father or mother invested in Blue City, tell them to either cash out now, or forever remain feeling the pain. Anyways everyone got to eat, and the boss want to eat well before his time is up! Remember the Ponzi Scheme & Bernard Madoff who scammed almost $400 million from his victims, well, am not saying that this is the same case, but damn it does draw a great  and similar scenario.

Insane, Applelious & Green, Custom, Complexed

This week alot of things happened, i totally lost it and went insane with Bank Muscat over lack of understanding of some nature and cause of them not trying to understand our business, which in other words not caring in customer service but caring about internet fraud more. I tell you, the bank is so redundant that they actually think they can prevent internet fraud! Banks are like one of the most secured companies in the world, even the panic attack alarm is responded within 1-3 minutes, but the only thing the bastards can not handle is internet fraud. No matter how strong and secure the financial institutions are, they are always freaks and computer tech maniacs out there who are better, wiser and more discreet to their proceedings. I like to think of a bank as the most secure place for putting your money, and also the most idiotic place to get asked abnormal questions.


Do you love apples? Do you love apples and the color green? Now do you love the color green? Well, i came to meet a wonderful lady who is self employed, love her for that, and has a sense of humor and loves green, and apples. Then later on i came to realize that she loves Costa Coffee as well, and also has one at the exact location of her office. IFA DESIGNS, excellent at making designs and everything else that fits well before a presentation and also advertising.... (Too much credit for Ifa, Hey even me am good and you said it).


I like custom things, never liked originals because everyone has access to it. If its custom, it's usually has different things or parts from the original concept. Take for example a Blackberry Bold, well everyone within limits can afford the cellphone but not everyone can have a unique model. (Special Editions are not considered custom, because they are only made for those who can pay more). And yes my love for custom items is because you stand out of the crowd, and always make the original feel useless, hated, and dull, that is why my company is custom all the way. Hey, i do not mean i will let you sit on a first class premium seat in the middle of economy class just to make the rest of the passengers look cheap....... (Just Wrong).

Had to post my friend's picture, damn the woman is lost in translation. A couple of words for you: overrated, complexed, messy, confused, happy, cheerful, up, down, almost done, 1 year's work. Asad's Picture of the month (March 2010)


Apart from the work and the meetings, i thank everyone who wished me a happy birthday all around facebook and twitter, and sms, and emails also, and the ones who called, and the family members i also had to remind. For Laith & Khalid, that will never happen again...... No matter what! I did not get any gifts meaning i do not understand why all of you bastards consider me a friend and can't get me even a can of coca-cola and please do not use that phrase "or it's because of the financial crisis and all that, it was a year back and did not affect you, and the ones who got me gifts, thank you for not getting me anything on my wish list, your useless but unfortunately truly loved and adored by me.

Self Employment Benefits: Asad's Facts

You can imagine last night was fun right, and you got home at 2am or 3am, or even maybe 4am, as your on your way to work which you are already late by an hour and a couple of minutes. Traffic is bad because you have been in the same spot for the last 20minutes and you can still see your house from the side mirror. Then you get that un-wanted panic call that automatically jump starts your heart beat, the boss is calling!!!!!!!
You do know very well what he's first words are going to be, "Aye, Where Are You, Just Did Two Meetings And Your Still Not In?"

Just take a minute and think fast, deep, and analyze the outcome of that one call.
- Boss is mad
- Boss is happy
- Boss will kill someone today
- **** the boss, am the damn boss
- Warning letter
- Salary deduction
 Everything you do or will do either makes your boss look bad or makes your boss look good, right? So if you feel that you got the urge to piss your boss every now and then, keep it up, your doing a good job, if you aren't into it, then why not just cut him all the B.S. drama, and quit the job.....

My theory is if anyone can work in a well organized company, then you could run your own business. Example, the mafia, its always well organized, even though they do not know how to do business, but end up being the best at it if you know what i mean. Likewise a man who is capable of working for someone else is just as capable as working for himself if he or she is well organized.

To avoid all the pain and misery, why not just be self employed? Start something small, and grow it up as you go along. And always remember that do what you like and not what others advise you to do.

Birthdays Suck As You Age!!!

What, am only 23, or should i say just turned 23, have a million friends everywhere, and yet every year the number of birthday friends reduce..... Ahh like i care anyways. As long i got the ones who love me, and a couple of friends here and there, then it's all good. Well, March 8th and i just turned 23, i am still young, as people would consider, got my life on track, 2 companies afloat, one started well, the other still pending until further notice, broke half the time, Costa Coffee all the time, drinking coffee and blogging. Chilling with friends, Me and Amri playing Pro Evolution Soccer on PS3, even though he's  better, insane calls that come up every morning on my cell phones. Beautiful girls who always check me out at the traffic lights, even though the Suzuki is old, and the Yaris is small, to me, this is just a small fraction of my dot com life. So when your birthday comes around, you are always surprised to see new faces, old faces, rich, poor, 50/50 people. In short, everyone you know. But as years go by, you tend to discover that the circle of friends you had 10 years back are not the same, either you have new friends, and the old ones have moved on, but the friends that never leave you are the ones you consider as family and really close friends..... Anyways it does bring joy and happiness and to me it's better than being around many people you do not know blowing candles on a cake that no matter how little you eat it, the cream is just too much..............

This is how i Celebrate my Birthday, i tell myself Happy Birthday Asad

A Bad Gone Good Dedication To DanZak

I am the victim of a crime, shot in between lies, and reborn off a sacrifice. I am the best, i make Lil Wayne look retired. Read between the lines, who did it like this and maybe even better. I am not insane, above that is where you can look at. That's where i stand, because you think you stand on the roof, i am way taller like the Eiffel tower on top of that one Burj in Dubai. Mel Gibson is famous in the movie, i am famous everywhere else. Your girlfriend has silicon breasts, i swear they look like bags of expired milk. Jesus walked on water, 50 Cent made billions selling water, me i might just flash the toilet and let it drain. All i needed was a dream, Elm street Freddy tried me and died in my dream. You see, granny loves me coz am the best, the rest is considered grand kids even if they babies and cute and shit. I love the Audi 2 door, especially if it could drop down the roof, but economically speaking, let me stick to the Yaris. This is dedicated to DanZak even though Hitlab to me is just another Senegal punk trying to make a dollar and win more airtime.............

Apex: Muscat Daily (27/Febuary/2010)

So Muscat Daily publish a story on the front page titled: Omani to become owner of Brazilian football club. Now the content of my story is absolutely explicit, so bear with me. I might swear and curse and use offensive language, so please do not sue me. And yes, read this at your own risk. 
So anyways, this Omani businessman upgrades his assets to buy a football club in Brazil. A good step business wise, but a wrong step when the media tells the story. Finex 2005 Futebol Clube also known as Phoenix Football Club 2005, as of 2012 will be fully owned by Mr. Ahmed Bin Zaid Al-Mahrami (Thumbs Up). Now lets evaluate this situation wisely. 
 1. Signs a sponsorship deal with Finex 2005 Futebol Clube for 2 years
 2. After sponsorship contracts end, he will buy or own the club
 3. Reportedly purchased the club for $2.5 million dollars.

It also mentioned that Al-Makan Cafe will be internationally known. Now unless he has Al-Makan cafes all over the world, then it will increase sales in his business, but if its just a local trend, then what does he benefit?
2nd of all, the club is not even that famous, making it a bad investment unless he plans to spend more millions on buying international superstars and taking them to Brazil to play (Hehe). I am not criticizing anyone so far, but WTF. 

Ok, so $2.5 Million is approx. 963,000 OMR. The value of that amount is like purchasing two lands in Madinat Allam, in Muscat, each land sized about 600 square meters, so in Omani English, you can say he invested in two lands that cost 1 million Rials. (WTF).

Now lets get back home (Oman). Yeah, did you know that the population of Omani's that watch football don't even know anything about Brazilian league football.... We support teams like Arsenal, Manchester United, Barcelona, Real Madrid, and teams that are well known. 

So my ultimate question is, what the heck is Muscat Daily feeding our minds and time with stories like this? 
Did he study business, or thinks buying a football club is like buying a playstation 3 and sticking it with his logo? 


Someone please help me, I am confused???????????

Hustler's Ambitions: The Real Deal

Everyone has dreams and works 80% of his entire life to make sure he/she achieves the goals he/she has set. Others sacrifice everything and prefer to get rich quick in order to live the life of luxury, but as you can tell not all people can make it that fast. To me, that's living in the fast lane, and eventually you will run out of fuel or crash.
A hustler on other words will never think about the future, but always make money for the next day. A dollar made today is the same dollar spent tomorrow. Now imagine a hustler played his cards right and came into the game weak, a capital of 300 dollars, what could he possibly invest in?


- You always start small, one who is given a handout shouldn't ever be considered as a go getta (hard worker). Start something small like working for someone who can afford to pay you and learn the tactics of everyday business, which includes selling and buying, customer service, responsibility, basic accounting etc.... Once you understand and have built your small reputation in the local market, then you start to make deals to earn commissions. Securing an income for oneself is always a good way to start off. Extra income always balances your accounts leaving you running moderate until your monthly pay is received. 
- One year of excellent good work relations and you can roll the dice and play it safe by starting something that is legal and officially registered. Building business relations with clienteles and other businesses is good for the long run, because whenever business is slow, you can always depend on your connects to bring in something to push in a little extra income. Never make your business personal, because you will always have problems with people all around. Always try to be legit, and never mix your business with the wrong type of business, because alphabet boys are always keeping a close eye, especially if your scoring huge profits. 

- Tax is always an option, for instance, in my country, if you make over $80k, then they will expect you to tax it in. You can always bypass this by opening new businesses and slowing credits coming into the business. About three years of your hard work and sweat, you eventually to create a duplicate of the business in another location, which targets a whole new market of people. You can always change the field of your business, but remember that the field you are planning to operate is profitable and not a crash point.
- Always think big, as two of my friends keep advising me, 100k and they can trade it in the stock market, yes the gains are always good but that's one of the fast lanes, and a hustler always goes slow on his roll. Try to see how you can maximize your financial incomes. Start playing the mean game, putting others out of business, killing and controlling the whole market. *Remember that tipping is not appropriate everywhere but at the same time, it makes things run smoother and faster. By controlling a strong 70% of the industry in which you operate, then bigger pictures can come into play.

- Before you start going places, you have to show that you earned it. A Bentley, Range Rover, a house on the hills, one on the beach and a pent house in the middle of the desert with a helipad on the balcony is not bad. A woman to hold you down, and a mother showered in riches. The type of mother who prefers breakfast in St. Tropez, and lunch in Madrid, and dinner in Muscat. Always keep it real. 
- Never think like your idols. If 50 Cent got rich selling Vitamin Water, do not think you can sell a company of  energy drinks and be a billionaire. Having your name on clothing is nice, believe me, but it is not worth the pain and stress unless you plan to put someone there on your behalf. Try and invest in Airlines, Banks, Financial Institutions, Real Estate even though the USA is facing the recession. Word of advise, its God's will that you made it, so always remember to give back to the community and to the world. Never give a person who is on his knees begging, but always help the ones who have been left behind and the world itself does not give a damn. 

- In the S Class being driven around by a chauffeur, while your assistant briefly details your calendar and appointments, smoke to always release your pressure. Carry a gun if your in any African country and never carry out more money than you expect, because others may know your value and change the scene from a day of work to a day of hell.   

Once again, when it comes to making money, take the issue seriously and not as a joke, because one man's fortune is another man's misery. 

So hustle the wise way and keep it real always......

Takers

When i saw this preview, i was like "wow". How many actors and artists can you put in one project and make something this interesting. The movie "Takers" directed by John Luessenhop brings in the action packed movie of the 1st quarter of 2010. Bank robbers planning to loot 20 million, the cowboy ways. 
Personally i saw the trailer and loved the movie, but also instead of Chris Brown, they could have put Ludacris or another hardcore southern rapper, but hence C.B is already in it, then i bet it's all good.

When the movie is out, and i get to watch it, and analyze it like all other movies, then i think i will post it down and make sure i keep it real...

Rap Or Techno: Call it :::RAPNO:::

Ever been clubbing and all of a sudden the Dj starting spinning your favorite track, David Guetta feat. Akon - Sexy B*t*h. Yeah, all of a sudden you'd be on the dance floor getting down to the music, dancing like your feet were made out of stainless steel. Am talking of that good music, unique music, the type of music that makes Ahmed dance to the groove, the type that makes Amour do that left hand right hand thing he does best. The type of music that makes you feel so secured, makes you feel like your having the time of your life (throwing money in the air). I simply call it RAPNO  My definition of excellent music. Always starts on a rap mode and ends with the ambiance of loud progressive techno, Some Benny Banassi mixed with a 50 Cent track.

We should have a new genre in musc called RAPNO, and i believe in it and prefer it to be like that because as a dj or a music lover, you can tell and organize your music according to whatsoever you prefer.


 
This message is not intended to offend the music industry in any way possible. Complaints against me will be taken into consideration. Failure to do so, then by all means try sue me, because i really do not give a %^&*. Thank you and i hope you do realize NOBODY GIVES A DAMN!

5:10am - 05/02/2010. The Ten Chapters of Professional Life

It's all a risk, believing in yourself, because oneself is full of surprises. I believe in edge cutting, new dimension, illustration and hard work all put together. Many people do not understand me because i choose not to explain myself. I have seen people who started with nothing but hope and big dreams (Hope can not get you anywhere if hard work is not implemented). You can not ask for helping hands every single day, you have to depend on oneself no matter what the cost. Real Talk.........

MyAfrica - (vol. 1)

I was born in Africa, i was educated in Africa, i lived in Africa for 15 years. Yes i am proud to say "I am African". The land that never gave up on me, but took everything away from me. I remember every time i shed tears, it also shed tears with me, when i slept, it watched over me, when i ate, it provided the freshest food to keep me healthy. I can not look forward and leave it behind because it never did leave me.

Most of the time i lived in Nairobi, capital city of Kenya. At that time, people were killing others for the sake of surviving. School was a mess, get your ass whooped for not doing homework, for checking out girls, for almost anything, and i was a trouble maker. I was smart though. Never failed, a straight 'A' student. My old classmates can testify to that. And then you have the beggars, whenever they beg, you give, acting tough will get you beaten, robbed and even left naked on the side of the road. Anyways i shouldn't give up the bad side to this wonderful continent as for all places in the world are the same but only in different manners....

By the way, Akon just released a new song called Oh Africa featuring Keri Hilson. I think this song is a Pepsi commercial but really its amazing. It gives you the reality of MyAfrica. I shall forever stay passionate about Africa, and i think now is the time i shall give back and give back more.






Help be a part of reviving MyAfrica, give love and support to the land that once fed and embraced you. Help fight Aids, help the helpless get education, get access to clean water, fight poverty and let them stand strong.

-MyAfrica-

He Who Angers You, Conquers You!

Ever thought of waking up in the morning with rose petals by your bedside. while you slide in the sheets, with your evening silk gown, i patiently stand beside and adore you. A smile from you can make my day start and end well, so take a break from the medicine, and join me in a travel to far and beyond, where only the moon provides light during the evenings, as we watch the stars gaze up above us. I can whisper in your ear and tell you everything nice that you want to hear. I can gently slide my hand down your cheeks to your neck and slowly kiss you into a dream of love and romance. How about we set the mood right and have a one of a kind evening dinner, filled with cheese and wine. (excuse me, i am not french) then i simply look through your eyes and see your hazel eyes look at me with tears of joy as i bend on my knees to propose to you. I will with all my heart take you to be my one and only, in sickness and health, in poor and richness (am still financially broke though) and be there to provide you with the wonders and joys of life.

Is it really true that " He who angers you, conquers you"? Because i can really be disturbing in a manner that will not only make you go mad, but show you the love i shower on you. Maybe i should be a little more ghetto, come up and shout "What it do mami"? then watch you walk away as i creep behind you and smack your booty, then get on the low, and tell you good you look in jeans and sneakers......
Let me conquer you, so that you can nag on me all day and night, and we could kiss through the phone and make out by the beach, or in the car by the parking lot, right......... I adore you.

Revolution In Rotation: The Apple's iPad

I am not the tech freak, but this beauty for the price is just extraordinary. Slim, sexy and bold. iPone has the bigger brother in town. This Apple iPad will be great for meetings and presentations. And now instead of going to seat down for coffee, and carry on the wait of your laptop and the charger, this iPad will reduce weight, complications and make you look cool. I have to get me on of these.


I can not really talk about the device, because i am not that much fan of Apple products expect for its personal computers (Macbook & Macbook Pro), but this new sleek piece of revolution makes me want to get it faster than i ever dreamed of. The only disadvantage of the iPad is that the memory it carries is too small to even fit my iTunes collection right now. A couple of movies and this device will be fully loaded.


I think it's a great gadget for not only business professionals but everybody that needs wireless devices to get their day moving. And for the price, i really think it's a very good one but when purchasing it, you should remember that your not buying a personal PC, or something similar to a Macbook.

25th January: IN GOD WE TRUST, IN PEOPLE CASH COMES FIRST

I never got the idea of how Arabs start to flirt when they like the opposite sex. Please do not get me wrong, i know how horny we can get, but damn, we need to control ourselves. Anyways back to the day. As you all know i had an accident and my Yaris is damaged, so i can not drive it at all, and now am driving one of my uncle's favorite Suzuki Vitara 2 door. Don't get me wrong, the car is perfect with the manual gear, the air conditioning still cooling like your fridge, and the best yet is that the car has no tints. I still wonder why?

Anyways today i was @ the traffic lights and this beautiful girl was on my left side (For those of you in UK, we arabs drive on the Left hand side) and she kept on smiling @ me, so i decided to smile back, and she increased her mood to very happy when she saw my reaction. She was cute, with the shades on and her head scarf, she looked nice to me, but she was in a Dhaihatsu Siron. All of a sudden she raised her phone up and showed it to me, i was suprised coz she wanted my phone number! The best part ever just came into play.
Sometimes the driver's window refuses to open, (Don't know why the hell is that) so i pressed the button over and over again, but it did not work, finally as i was about to open the door and give her my number, the damn traffic lights changed from red to green and the lady left........

Now people tell me, who the hell should i blame for this small incident ?
A. My Uncle       B. Myself         C. The Girl



** By the way, i got a new image today, to me it says struggling to be free. And another way to look @ it, would be by saying: "In God We Trust, In People Cash Comes First"

 We just launched National Recovery Services LLC in Oman, A DEBT COLLECTION AGENCY, and believe me, for those who used there time to call me and tell me that i owed them and had to pay them before i was sued, Yes, Revenge is on its way..........

The New Image


I love you, more than anything in the world. I adore you like the petals of a blossomed rose. If that does not make sense, then please rewind this to the time i said "I love you dearly".

By the way this is my new image. I am still working on it, but i tend to like it very much because it represents me in various forms. My color, Black. Me, a stand still, please people call me Kodak, but i do not share the moment. Hey what else can you get from an online travel agent, an entrepreneur and a mad insane blogger?

I got this friend, from way back, we lived together in the hood way back, and now he runs a website called THISIS100.COM and really that site makes me feel nice. Have a look and check it out.

Arsenal lost today to Stoke City, and now we are not in the FA Cup anymore. So WTF.....
