I have had many people give a confused look when I told them I would study Eco-maths. A friend of mine told me that there's no point in studying economics because most of the good public sector jobs are given to Sindhis (We're Muhajirs in Karachi). Others have told me it's just a stepping stone towards a graduate degree/studying abroad and a professional associated with the ACCA told me that he hasn't really heard of anyone with a background in Economics/Mathematics.

I do have an interest in this degree, but I have hardly ever heard about anyone else wanting to pursue this degree. It's always either ACF, CA, ACCA, BBA etc in commerce, and I get the feeling that I'm going down alone an unknown and risky path.

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!

    I tried both NayaPay, and UBL, but I keep getting "correct country selected..." error. I already have PK set there 🤦‍♂️

    The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol

    It's based on an actual real life person so I don't think the woke police have a valid case here.
    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.

    Meanwhile Ghost of Tsushima PC version is out now. Looks 100 times better than ASS Creed already.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.
