Worship white people? Do you know some Nigerians abroad have jobs that 80% of white people wish they do?


300k a month is less than $2000. People working in call centers earn about that.
A lot of people earning #300k a month still left their jobs in Nigeria

I don't have anything against 'foreign based Nairalanders' but frankly speaking some of them can be very stoopid and dumb. I still remember a thread that was posted by a diasporan Nairalander late last year on which he said he was coming home to  Naija very soon and he wants to know if it's safe cos he'll be moving around a lot and he has some expensive high-tech gadgets like an i-pod, rolex wristwatch etc ^{like sey we no get all these things for Naija already}.  Imagine the kain stoopid audacity. . .!

Lol. I remember some dude telling me that he couldn't come to Nigeria because he was scared Nigerians were going to steal the UK residence permit in his passport. Oh lordy.

platinumnk:

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!   Is that the conversion?
Just 2000K Ok im outta here,
Rolling on the Floor laughing my head off

honeric01:

How about $1800 per week? what do you say about that? not even a master holder oo, still in this same Nigeria.

Information is power.

oyb:

offtopic - income wise its not really about $3000 v3 #million - but how much of that money do u actually take home?

and hey both nigeria and the us have armed robbery - though victims in the us have better opportunities for redress

platinumnk:

roughly about 86K, nice but not 4000 a week \

platinumnk:

yes but some of has insurance against robbery! if someone steals my car, Ill have a another next week

honeric01:

That is after tax and all that, is that $400 a week after tax?

spikedcylinder:

Ahem. There is insurance in Nigeria as well, madam.

platinumnk:

and it doesnt take 2 days for the police to arrive
plus we have a liscense to carry firearms- keep it on the dashboard

I heard, and I was glad, but how feasible is it? I havent heard any good reviews, and isnt it mostly in Lagos, with a lot of restrictions?
Even the GPS tracing thing . . .

platinumnk:

if you operate your own business, then you know how to work the taxes
The Us Does not tax Ebay  

oyb:

eh? and who says our cars aren't insured if we so wish?


a license to carry firearms - a lot of people don't see that as good thing - what with school shooters and all

oyb:


you must be listening to the wrong people. i have a friend whose car was snatched at gunpoint he was reimbursed.

the issue with insurance is the same issue y'all have over there - they shaft the little guy if they feel they can get away with it

honeric01:

lol, eBay, now i know you're being sincere here, you want to tell me that you make an average of $4000 on eBay every week, what do you sell on eBay that guaranty you a $4000 bill? (i know lot about eBay so I'm waiting for you to err)

Yes i operate my biz and i know what comes to my pocket every week excluding tax/bills and i don't have to work with anyone's schedule.

Nice try but in this same America, I have seen Naija guys not even with a Masters earn $80/hr Last month I met a Kenyan who makes $110 an hour

And whats wrong in paying for the amenities you enjoy in the form of taxes?

Robbery in the US can never be on the same level in Nigeria.
In the US as long as you dont live in the hood. But in Nigeria regardless of the area you live Armed robbers always strike. before I left Naija in 2008 a female partner (American) in the organisation I worked with who stays in a service flat of $50k a year on Admiralty way Lekki was robbed and her houseboy was thrown from the third floor she was beaten mercilessly and all her stuff were stolen.
In the US you can go out any time of the night without fearing anything.

+1Whats wrong with earning a degree? My sister is studying Nurse Anesthsiology- The starting salary is 100K
Thats whats wrong with Nigeria, you cant go to school and study and get a job.
You graduate, and just sit there
Bring it Missy , Its all fun anyway It doesnt detract away from my automatic start in my car

platinumnk:

that was a shameful thing that happened with hispanics, thats irrelevant

not excatly a robbery, but is richmond high in the hood?

lol, i knew that, was just expecting you to open up. eBay is not a money spinning website, you only get what you offer and they even end up sharing your % with you.

Ujujoan:

*rooooooolz eyez*

oyb:

eh - Hispanics aren't americans? gang despoil is their sole province?

you realise that you sound just the way white peopl do when they talk about black on black crime?

no gang despoil in colleges populated by whites/blacks?

I have lived in At least 3 US cities and never seen highway robbery before.

Anyone who has lived in the west before Pls tell us how many times you were robbed while you were in UK or US

honeric01:

Did i say anything was wrong with a degree? he said someone earns $110/hr and i said that must be because he's got a formal education, but can someone with no pally earn that high? though skillful people are rewarded robustly in the US, but you must be skilled or with pally to earn anything of such.
