    Ghana, Uganda, Rwanda – same freakin mess in Sub-Saharan Africa, short of the infrastructure provided by whites. Unless you’ve been to Africa, then you can’t fathom the true poverty, corruption, and utter disorganization.

    My goal 1 day is to create jobs in ghana & affordabvle real estate for many. I’m 26 now, and altho nothin is goin for me now. It will happen and we’ll be the nation to beat in everything. As for technology am not so much for it. I believe natural things r best. especially manuall labor, it creates much need people for work. technology is what takes things away. i believe in me and i believe in ghana. It will Happen. and it will be.

    Ghana’s currency is called cedis. The last time I was in Ghana, 9600 cedis was about the equivalent of 1 American dollar, and if you were eating local food 9600 cedis was enough to buy you three meals.

    I hope that helps some, haha.

  24. TheAlisaKay says on :

    This is the first I’ve heard about ‘Busy Internet’ and the new enterprises in Ghana. But why would you say ‘ppl sacrifice their country’s dignity for business’ ??? I don’t understand how people are sacrificing dignity at all. On the contrary… these small businesses are actually working in this new technology enriched environment. What exactly is your problem with this?
