Last year was sweet for nigerians abroad. Imagine $1000 was over 500k in naira. Smart thinking ones where able to buys up properties and investments back home. It's all good, at least the naira is gaining some value now. 4 Likes |

No easy place on earth. For any dollars sent, someone must have temp given up something. Be careful with the calculation of dollars to naira...remember, bills such as water, light, gas, insurance, dental you must do once or twice a year, cable, cell phone, credit card, car loan, rent or mortgage, childcare if you have kids, alimony or child support if you knocked up that babes...all must be paid after uncle Sam's slashing (tax). Add feeding and self care...aha the list is endless. You paint a false reality if you don't live abroad. The story is a difficult one for many Americans. 9 Likes |

Send me there, I will deliver the info to him when I get there bro. You can both be making money as well. One of the easiest way is to sell african fabrics over there. Create a facebook page, advertise some fine and lovely fabrics that is not even up to 6k, do an advert on facebook and target those in US. Once the order comes in, quickly meet that shop owner where you saw the fabrics, buy, send to your friend in US. He delivers for you. Shipping fee would have been added to the cost price anyway. Your friend can be helping people to buy things from the US (Very lucrative, if he is trustworthy) stonemasonn: |

obajoey:Let's not forget that he would still have to pay taxes, electricity bills, water bills, mortgage, phone bills, he'd have to pay for gas, transport and every other 'bill' payable. Besides, it's not every time a piece of land needs clearing. I am not trying to say it's not better over there in some ways but then some people who go there searching for greener pastures get into deep shit before they even realise and then they'd remember all the 'goodies' their counterparts promised them. 1 Like |

lilbest4:Yes, after all the year round tax deductions running into tens of thousands I have had to pay over 3k to IRS - that is over N1m. It goes down when you have kids, make some donations, have mortgage(s), and other spendings within the system. 1 Like |

nonix22:In reality, there are far better places than home. Whatis bad is bad. However, if you are home make the best of it. If you live abroad, open your eyes and make the best use of the legit opportunities. If you really love home then you can set targets and enjoy the best of both worlds. I gained focus and freed myself from scavengers when I started my projects in Nigeria. No loose cash to throw away and now I quietly sneak in and out of Nigeria at least 4 times a year making income in two different economic environment. 4 Likes |
