In this naija, passion hardly works. If you want to sit and wait for the job you love, old age will just meet you without any good thing done in your life
Well said.!!!

Maybe you are not in Nigeria.

By the time you don't have money to do a deal and u stay without a club in Nigeria
...After you clock 40years that's when u'll know that the passion stuff doesn't work in Nigeria.

And that's why we have Doctors as Bankers,Engineers as Accountants in Nigeria.

That passion stuff only works in the Western world.

You don't understand what I wrote up there. I'm working already, I'm doing what I love and I'm getting paid for it. It's not like I'm about to start looking for a job I've got passion for. Kargane ko?

My Opinion:

At the start of your career/business, you work for passion.


As you gain experience over the years/ your business becomes solid, you work for money.

lipsrsealed lipsrsealed Na money ooo!!

I was having a discourse with one of my colleagues couple of weeks ago,this nigga is actually a medical officer in a national hospital(one of highest paying for docs in d country)He then brought up the issue of how poorly d docs get remunerated in the country compared to their contemporaries in private firms(Telecoms,banks and O&G)

Nigga started complaining about d start up salary of an entry grad as an executive trainee/EA in d bank OR a field engineer in schlumberger/an insurance marketer/Accountant in d likes of dextroit and KPMG being more than that of a consultant,that which is d zenith of his career..
Na one question I ask am,Na who send you make you pick Medicine,he was actually myopic and only joined d bandwagons in filling d course during jamb having no modicum of sensitisation nor awareness what d thingy holds for him in future ultimately.He isn't satisfied with his remuneration as a doc,even though,he's still comfortable to a reasonable extent.

Vividly,one needs no soothsayer to relay d fact he has no modicum of passion for his job,Na money he dey Find..

As I'm typing, Nigga is doing his MBA in Michigan hoping to switch to d finance sector...

Re: Do You Work For Money Or Passion? by Nobody: 10:45am On Jul 29, 2016
There's a difference between a job and a profession. If you are occupied presently in a job situation then u might be working only for money but if it's the latter the it's both simply cos it's your profession and you are getting paid for it while been happy.

I overheard some of my colleagues talking about the main reason why we work. I also raised the same question to my Palmchat followers. To be sincere I work for both, because I have passion for my job. But can you answer sincerely, what do you really work for? Passing or pay?

I was taught that if i work for passion, i wont need to think about money.

People on fixed salaried employment cant help but think about money and their pay day. But for a businessman, everyday is a pay day. And it is passion that drives your business progress, profit and turnover.

You will not always make money with your passion, but it is advisable to let your passion make money for you.

MONEY FIRST, PASSION SECOND.
IF THE PASSION CANT GENERATE THE MONEY I NEED IN THE JOB, WHATS ITS USE?

With the current trend in Nigeria, I work for money and not passion because passion will never pay my bills. With no jobs in Nigeria people take up all sorts of jobs they do not like. Just imagine the Police recruitment that need only 10,000 candidates, you can imagine how may people applied.

NOW HIRING..... HND graduates with a passion for work. Transportation fare to and from work and lunch allowance would be paid weekly.
..and we wonder why soo many companies and some States don't make paying their employees a priority.
