They should simply tag you "Crazy Hustler'". Good job. What's your URL?

THERE IS NO CAPITAL was the biggest lie I told myself which made me waste over one year of my life in the unemployment market... Hoping to raise enough for business.

It took a white collar job with a 15k pay to reset my brain. This was in January 2016.

March 1st, I bought my first domain.

Less than 1 year later, I have more than I really need.

You don't really need capital. You need an idea.

EDIT: For those asking what i did with the domain i bought... I started a blog. Yeah!
while unemployed people were reigning curses on bloggers and shouting la click la bend on nairaland, i was still making my money, i spammed nairaland, i got banned severally, but it didnt stop me. I knew it was all i had, so i just could not stop.

**I really dont know why i get an error message from mailer daemon when i try to respond to PM requests, but i have my number everywhere on nairaland. You can reach me via whatsapp. and i'm not saying its an easy road.

Nice thread, since the day I gained admission and discovered how the education system was like and the situation of the country at present, I gave up and told myself that I must be independent and after graduating I am not searching for any job.

how do I plan to achieve this ? I am currently learning so many skills, I am into Music Production I make Hip Hop / Trap beats and Pop Beats, am still learning to know how to Produce various genres, I am Also learning Graphics design every holiday I must make sure i spend my time learning.

I am just going to school for going sake, I know that degree won't take me where I want to be, my skills would take me.

I may not be making money now but am sure of one thing I am doing sth already and sooner or later my breakthrough gonna come.

Am currently in 200Level Philosophy, after graduation I will be well equipped and I must have mastered my craft in Music Production and Graphics Design.

With God's help and support I will eventually make it.

A I encourage you to start sth worthwhile don't waste time unnecessarily, this world has advanced so much in information and Technology, you have a wide range of information on any topic at your fingertips,

Google is there , YouTube is there , Wikipedia's is there,

I learned graphics and music production from Google and YouTube, imagine what would happen when I finally Graduate from school.


Success to all of us.

You talk to dad less because he is against your weed smoking. Yabaleft is waiting for you.

Naturally, at that age, he will be clashing with his father because he is grown, home and jobless.

There will be an unspoken resentment in the man, "after all the school fees I spent on you, you are still home".

An unemployed lady even confided that she smokes weed to forget anxiety. That's the only bad angle he mentioned..

This country is in serious ish.

And you call that coping, Mr. OP?

I just hope you're joking.

Because if you're not.

Then...

My friend, you are not coping at all.

You are dying.

Look at this young man.

I didn't hear you mention anything about Personal Development.

I didn't hear you mention anything about acquiring more skills to make yourself valuable in the job market.

I didn't hear you mention anything about reading more books to widen your knowledge.

You are proudly telling us that you smoke weed like 3 times a day and you talk to probably your weed smoking friends too.

Clap for yasef Mr. Weed smoker. lipsrsealed

You are waiting for someone somewhere to give you a job abi?

In short my friend, let me tell you the truth nobody has ever told you.

You are nothing but a wasted Nigerian Youth.

Even if I'm young I know this life is simple,at the end of it all we will all die. I'm wise enough not to worry about the fact that i aint employed yet and not having enough finances to do business. So this is what has been keeping me happy:
I pray everyday for God's peace
I smoke weed lyk 3 tyms a day
I stay away from bitcches that will bring me stress
I listen to rappers that flow hope,e.g,Talib kweli,Royce da 5'9,kendrick lamar,Joe budden,Crooked I etc.
I talk to my mum more.
I talk to my dad less
I talk to friends,so I gain information on stuffs I can fit in

A smoker can actually work from home and make millions or naira I have a great business proposal for you. there is a reputable program that allows you to make passive income selling land in Lagos. just wanted to touch base with you and see if you would be open to taking a look .It's actually free to join. You make % 15 %10 which is about 450k by just making a referral to the company . Don't you think you need to try this out ..contact me on WhatsApp if interested 08124579981

You like bob marley? Yea,he touched the world in ways the politicians of his time couldn't,he smoked till death

Do you know james monroe? nah ,I don't think you do,he was a president of the united states,he smoked till 73

Do you know Hua Tao? I don't think you've read enough to come across that name,he was a chinese,credited for being the first human to produce the first anesthetic for performing surgery.
The likes of Carl slagan; Ted Turner; Richard Branson are all pot heads.

What makes you think you are better than me, @least I could have taken the route of being a scammer but i chose not to. Don't you think my soul has been given to the devil. You don't smoke doesn't make you a better,greater greater a morally insightful human. Peace!

Go to yaba left and see how thousands of weed smokers ruined their lives. You asked if I m better than you.... but you know you are not doing better with that weed.

You want console your self with Bob Marley and others....why don't you go the house of Majek Fashek so that you can learn how drugs almost ruin his life.

I can't recommend you for any job and no sane employer will want a weed smoker in the Organization. #fact

Smh ... see your solution right infront of you . Start small and grow big . What could fetch you money is what you do three times a day . It's not exactly a good way but it's a way , and at least you will have something to step on for a proper investment . My brother , here's my advice , don't smoke the weed three times a day , sell it threee times a day .

Okey, you must be a monkey for calling your senior a bigot and a hypocrite.

I'm sure you don't even know the meaning of those words.

You must be a weed smoker yourself hence your needless opinion.

You need money to go into self development?

Nwoke m, please don't make me laugh, okay?

Just keep on deceiving yourself and making up excuses for yourself, you hear?

You have your phone. You have your internet. You know about Google. But you don't know how to search for Personal development websites or books online abi?

Mtcheewwwww.

My friend you better visit this site: 13 Secrets School Did Not Teach You On How To Be Rich to have a better and clearer understanding on why so many wasted Nigerian youths are still unemployable.

In short you can download the free ebook to start reading it immediately.

And if you must venture into entrepreneurship which I suggest you should instead of waiting endlessly for a job that might never happen, then you should see this: 13 Entrepreneurship Books Every Serious African Must Read

That's how you start.

During my years of unemployment after nysc:

I stayed away from church launching programmes because i have limited resources but i didn't stay from participating in other church programmes.

I stayed away from market to avoid unnecessary and frivolous spending.

I stayed away from girls so i can focus on what the future holds for me even though i kept only one.

I stayed away from alcohol and smoking. Before that, i used to smoke to suppress depression and negative thoughts.

I stayed away from loneliness to avoid suicidal thoughts. I once attempted suicide but thank God for books that helped me overcame it.

I embraced God, it was a time i spent more in the presence of my creator. I always find peace and comfort in his presence.

I always play inspiring gospel songs from Nathaniel bassey, Samsong, and other ministers of God.
My most favorite songs were and still "I have no other god", "miracle worker", by Nathaniel bassey and "made a way" by Travis Greene. Those songs are so wonderful and more like an antidote for every difficult times.

But finally when things were about getting better my only girl left me and married someone else. Devastating as it was but i moved on.

Guy your head is there. Guys are already millionaires before leaving school self. Even with information's on nairaland here, people shouldn't be complaining of been broke. Online business even pays more than those foolish white collar jobs. I make an average of 300k per month with online hustle despite been lazy when I've not even applied 10 percent of what I know or discovered. If I triple my hustle, I will be earning over 1 million per month. I have guys earning over 1.5m per month from multiple online hustle which are not yahoo yahoo. Affiliate marketing, blogging e.t. c. It even gives freedom more than. White collar slavery job.
