GROWTH; A NUMBERS GAME

Frank was hired recently to make calls on behalf of his restaurant to customers on a two day plan, after a month the boss comes for inventory to inquire how many calls he had made, and frank began with stories of how network providers made his job a living hell. But the boss shut him, saying "the little box I have can only take numbers and not stories.
Just like many today, ask them why are you still on this level? And all you get are stories that won't fit into 'the small box', they can go on and on, taxes, cost of living, high transportation, corruption of government all they mention didn't start today, why has it become recurring decimals. (Just for the records, during the era of SAP, the contracts that made govt devalue Naira and borrow funds, some are still to be completed! It's that gross).
The 'brothers' who make he forbes richest men year in year out, have numbers to show, likewise big Nations and economies (the recent rebasing of the Nigerian economy can show more). Ever wondered why the chairs in Nursery three can't take a man of thiry-three, growth is all about numbers, how many years would you love your ward to spend in one class? The answer you would be reciting to yourself now!
So you see, growth is clearly a nubers game, that's why many would manipulate figures to show pseudo-growth. And as always increase your numbers legitimately and don't tell stories. It's your bargain to do so.
