No need to comment if you got nothing to say. Dont need trolls derailing this thread

Woged2005: For those who live abroad N1mil is only about $7,500. For some people, it's only a month's salary, for some 17yrs old high school kids working part-time at McDonald's it's a year's Salary. However, the bills and cost of living is killing abroad (UK, USA especially). Jeez! So honestly I can't say I have, N1mill salary won't do much in USA after taxes and bills, but in Nigeria it's a lot.

My own Story:

My friend and I hit it in Nigeria at age 24 & 25 respectively. Unemployed and fresh from Uni, we worked as Marketing Representatives on 10% commission supplying detergents to hotels and hospitals. During our school's Alumni event, we announced our biz and asked for help. Two months later, a good-hearted fellow Alumni saw how young girls like us could set pride aside and worked on commission without salary and helped got us a supply sub-contract to UNTH/ UNEC, Enugu worth almost N7mil. We got 10% (N700k) from the company after they supplied, and because we supplied above the company's price (markup) we got another N320k, Total N1,020,000. However, we split the money btw us after paying 10% tithe to our fellowship. God bless that man wherever he is.

Girls, heaven helps those who helps themselves. If you can't get a salaried job, start with a part-time sales job on commission until God answers your prayer. It keeps ur mind busy, and better than debasing your body with men over change.

will share mine much later... eating chicken first...

mitwitdot: Hello everyone, was thinking about my financial status today and wondering if someone might get encouraged by sharing how we made our first million and our age when we made it.

Mine was mtn sponsored who was to be a millionaire at the age of 25. It sounds like "easy money". Trust me, it wasn't. Took about 6 months of playing online early morning and night (when my swift wifi 3k5 subscription comes on ), spending at least 400 naira any day Im playing (got so used to the questions that I answered them b4 they show ). Was called after giving up because there was no work and money to finance the indulgence anymore .
Had to even borrow 1k to go for the show.

I'm gainfully employed now but its not easy to get 1mill. Working o ....u go save wella n live prudent.

Had to summarise my experience so u dont get bored reading or mistake my effort for being boastful.

So anyone wants to share how a young chap can hit his first mill?

kar bridals: At 23,didnt work for it thouh,given to me by my ex,I used it to set up a salon business,later the shop was bugled by students in the area nd I cldnt manage it anymore so I moved.

truth_bastille:

Great!!! Didn't know some boyfriends were so generous... buying my babe a samsung S3 sef feels like I buying her a diamond ring.. nobody should nail me on the cross o, fingers no equal;some of us don suffer well so we cant afford to lose the money albeit anyhow.

akintun: I wished u asked how an individual made his/her first 10million or even 50million. I don't think u would find many inspiring stories on how an individual made his first million in present day naija.

deybholar: I got a million grant from my dad to start a business ( I was 24). Sadly, I wasted over 200k on vain things like human hair, a new phone and other things.
I didn't do the business again but I kept removing out of the money.
I have learnt my lesson sha.
That was a big opportunity I missed
