  • My Two Cents: 138 ways to scam a UWI student

    I remember when the first housing development by 138 Student Living was introduced, and it was then Guild President Lerone Laing who had the responsibility of communicating this to the Guild of Students; which I am almost certain he did through his guild councilors at the time. Most students didn’t have a problem with the…

  • My Two cents: What really is the purpose of the Economic Growth Council (EGC) of Jamaica?

    It doesn’t take an economics pundit to see through the fluff which surrounds the Economic Growth council of Jamaica. Its membership for one, right off the bat, tells you that this isn’t a unit seriously concerned about the ECONOMIC GROWTH of our country; but rather the LOOK of there being a special machinery in place…

  • My two cents: Andrew Holness, the “Champion bwoy”

      Now, I had my doubts about Andrew’s leadership capabilities at first, just like everyone else did I would imagine. I mean, those undated resignation letters last year highlighted a very impulsive and arrogant opposition leader that I couldn’t picture as my Prime Minister. Then the general elections came along, and a transformation was made…

  • My Two cents: for the Broke, Unemployed and Ambitious young Jamaican

      Student loans to payback, work experience, first car, first apartment, first million….do these terms look familiar to you? I mean there are others but these seem to stand out in the minds of most millennials. These are the terms that haunt us every day in the shower, on the treadmill, while driving, while cooking,…
