The December festive season in Nigeria, commonly referred to as ‘detty December' have captured the world's attention. Lagos alone brought in $71.6m in tourism revenue in December 2024, according to the Lagos State Government. How are locals faring with the influx of tourists in a tough economy? Catherine Nzuki is joined by Oluwatomisin Amokeoja, a journalist with Forbes Africa, to give an overview of ‘detty December' in Lagos. They unpack what ‘detty December' is (1:58); where the term originates (3:40); and how it has grown into such a big phenomenon that pulls in celebrities, tourists, and diaspora members (known colloquially as the “I Just Got Back” or IJGBs) (5:59); and what the December celebrations look like for locals (7:54). Peter Imouokhome, a development economist and consultant based in Lagos joins the podcast to unpack the economics of ‘detty December'. They discuss the causes of the ongoing economic crisis in Nigeria (10:40); its impact on locals (16:29); how the cost of living crisis has led to protests (20:00); and how Nigeria can balance the economic benefits of tourism with its unintended negative effects on locals (25:50).

The children are doing the dragon dance," said Jian, pointing to a nearby square, trying to help her relax.Zh: 他是美玲的老朋友,已经在北京待了好几年。En: He is an old friend of Meiling, having been in Beijing for several years.Zh: "真热闹啊,"美玲微微笑道,却无奈地苦笑着。En: "So lively," Meiling said with a faint smile, yet with a helpless, bitter smile on her face.Zh: 四周的喧闹令她更加思念在家乡过年的温馨感觉。En: The clamor around her made her miss the warmth of celebrating the new year at home even more.Zh: 不久,他们来到了小博的艺术展览。En: Before long, they arrived at Xiaobo's art exhibition.Zh: 小博是个本地艺术家,正在展示他春节主题的画作。En: Xiaobo is a local artist, showcasing his Spring Festival-themed paintings.Zh: 画廊里的一幅画吸引了美玲。En: One painting in the gallery captured Meiling's attention.Zh: 画中描绘的是一场家庭团聚,家人们围坐在桌前,窗外是璀璨烟花。En: It depicted a family reunion, with family members sitting around a table, and outside the window, brilliant fireworks.Zh: 美玲站在那里,凝视着画中的温馨画面,心中有了一种奇妙的感悟。En: Meiling stood there, gazing at the warm scene in the painting, a wonderful realization dawning on her.Zh: "这幅画让我想起从前和家人一起的时光,"美玲轻轻说道。En: "This painting reminds me of the times spent with my family," Meiling said softly.Zh: "你也可以在这里创造新的回忆,"小博微笑着回应。En: "You can also create new memories here," Xiaobo replied with a smile.Zh: 美玲看了看身边的朋友们,笑了笑,说:"也许你说得对。"En: Meiling looked at her friends beside her, smiled, and said, "Maybe you're right."Zh: 随着夜幕降临,烟花在空中绽放,五光十色。En: As night fell, fireworks burst in the sky, colorful and dazzling.Zh: 美玲和朋友们一起漫步在天坛,头顶的烟花如同绚烂的彩虹。En: Meiling and her friends strolled in Temple of Heaven, with the fireworks above like a magnificent rainbow.Zh: 她心中的孤单渐渐消散,取而代之的是一种温暖的归属感。En: Her loneliness gradually faded, replaced by a warm sense of belonging.Zh: 那一刻,她明白了,无论身在何处,新年带来的不仅是结束与重生,还有建立新联结的机会。En: At that moment, she understood that no matter where you are, the new year brings not only conclusion and renewal, but also the chance to establish new connections.Zh: 过年不再只是回忆,更是在北京这个新家园中,与朋友一起创造的现在。En: Celebrating the new year was no longer just memories; it was the present created together with her friends in Beijing, her new home.Zh: 美玲微笑着说:"我想这里也可以是家了。"En: Meiling smiled and said, "I think this can be home too."Zh: 朋友们的欢声笑语在冷风中带给她温暖,她知道,这便是新年的意义。En: Her friends' laughter and chatter carried warmth through the cold wind, and she knew that this was the meaning of the new year.Zh: 这个晚上,美玲在北京度过了一个难忘的春节夜。En: That evening, Meiling spent an unforgettable Spring Festival night in Beijing.Zh: 她心中的家不再仅是一个地理位置,而是一种留下的幸福感觉。En: The home in her heart was no longer just a geographical location but a feeling of settled happiness.Zh: 以友谊和新的回忆为桥梁,北京已然成了她的第二个家。En: With friendship and new memories as a bridge, Beijing has become her second home.

Nou! Vuit!" El compte enrere començava a ressonar per tota la plaça.En: "Ten! Nine! Eight!" The countdown began to echo throughout the square.Ca: Oriol gairebé va ensopegar, però no es va rendir.En: Oriol nearly tripped, but he didn't give up.Ca: "Set! Sis! Cinc!" Va estirar el braç amb el braçalet tancat al seu puny.En: "Seven! Six! Five!" He stretched out his arm with the bracelet clutched in his fist.Ca: Finalment, la seva mà va tocar l'espatlla de Marta, just quan es cridava "Un!"En: Finally, his hand touched Marta's shoulder, just as "One!" was shouted.Ca: Marta es va girar, sorpresa, i va veure l'Oriol amb el braçalet.En: Marta turned, surprised, and saw Oriol with the bracelet.Ca: Els ulls d'Oriol brillaven amb determinació i també amb una mica de nerviosisme.En: Oriol's eyes shone with determination and a bit of nervousness.Ca: Li va retornar el braçalet i, amb els focs artificials esclatant al cel, va trobar el valor per dir-li: "No només volia tornar-te això. Volia dir-te com em sento. Feliç Any Nou, Marta."En: He returned the bracelet to her, and with fireworks bursting in the sky, he found the courage to say, "I didn't just want to return this to you. I wanted to tell you how I feel. Happy New Year, Marta."Ca: Marta va somriure, una barreja d'alegria i sorpresa.En: Marta smiled, a mix of joy and surprise.Ca: "Feliç Any Nou, Oriol," va respondre, mentre el cel s'omplia de colors.En: "Happy New Year, Oriol," she replied, as the sky filled with colors.Ca: En aquell moment, tot i la multitud i el soroll, semblava que només hi fossin ells dos.En: At that moment, despite the crowd and the noise, it seemed it was just the two of them.Ca: El nou any començava amb un nou encenall d'esperança i la promesa d'un començament compartit.En: The new year began with a new spark of hope and the promise of a shared beginning.

In the latest episode of the Capitalist Investor, hosts Diamond Hands D and Tony delved into a myriad of pressing economic and political issues, shining a light on the intricate dynamics shaping today's financial landscape. Here are the five hot topics they discussed:1. The Dow's Eight-Day Losing StreakThe hosts kicked off the episode by discussing the Dow's recent eight-day losing streak, which saw a 3.5% drop. A significant contributor to this downturn was UnitedHealthcare's challenges, notably compounded by the tragic assassination of their CEO. Additionally, proposed policy changes from Trump, aiming to cut the middleman out of Medicare, have put further pressure on the healthcare sector. Tony and Diamond Hands D speculated on the potential impacts of these developments on the broader market, particularly how investors might shift their focus to riskier, high-reward investments like Bitcoin and AI.2. Jerome Powell's Interest Rate StrategyFederal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's interest rate strategies were another focal point of discussion. The market is abuzz with anticipation of a potential 25 basis point cut. While some cheer this move, others warn of potential stagflation - a blend of stubborn inflation and stagnant growth. Tony emphasized the challenges in maintaining downward pressure on inflation, hinting at possible short-term upticks, while both hosts pondered the broader economic implications of Powell's policies.3. Biden Administration's Controversial End-of-Term DecisionsDiamond Hands D and Tony outlined several contentious moves by the Biden administration as it nears the end of its term. These include extending the work-from-home mandate for government employees until 2029, the liquidation of border wall materials at a fraction of their cost, and discussions around allowing full Social Security benefits for government pensioners. The hosts expressed concerns over these decisions, highlighting the potential long-term economic strains and perceived inefficiencies they introduce.4. Bitcoin and the Crypto Market OutlookThe future of cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin, was another hot topic. With Trump's administration planning to engage more with crypto, including the establishment of a crypto reserve, questions abound about the government's role in crypto markets. Tony mused on the secure management of government-held crypto assets, while Diamond Hands D pointed to the sustained allure of cryptocurrency investments amidst traditional market dips.5. 2025 Market Projections and CEO ConfidenceAs 2024 nears its end, attention turns to 2025 forecasts. The hosts discussed the potential resurgence of value stocks amidst technological and speculative investments' dominance. Reflecting on prior predictions and market performance, Tony stressed the unpredictability of market movements. The duo agreed on the importance of continuous market engagement, espousing the age-old wisdom that time in the market often trumps timing the market.ConclusionThis episode of The Capitalist Investor underscored the complexities and uncertainties defining today's financial and political arenas. From interest rate strategies and controversial administrative decisions to the unpredictable crypto landscape and market forecasts, Diamond Hands D and Tony provided listeners with deep insights. As always, they reminded their audience to stay informed, wary of "shiny toy" investments, and to consider the long-term implications of current economic policies. With the holiday season upon us, both hosts encouraged everyone to take a reflective pause and prepare for 2025's opportunities and challenges.

“There is a million dollars here for the asking!” This is the story of Christmas in the 1920s.  Yeah, the whole decade—why not? One hundred years ago, people were just beginning (or reviving) traditions that are entrenched in our holiday celebrations today. Charitable giving at Christmas is ever present, and the winter of 1920 features the Great Humanitarian Herbert Hoover's efforts to feed children in Europe with his “Invisible Guest” dinners. Another president, “Silent Cal” Coolidge, holds the first National Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony in 1923, cementing electric tree lights into our celebrations. And carols on the radio are coming into full swing, with live broadcasts from musicians like the Mount Holyoke Carol Choir.  And who can forget America's proud tradition of consumerism? Ok, that didn't start in the 1920s, but this is definitely the decade for some really swell presents. The Great War is over, wages are high, and it's time to buy! Santa Claus himself appears at a 1928 Knoxville parade through the streets and stores, delighting children and business owners alike. After the Crash, Christmases get a bit more economical, so let's celebrate while we still can.
