As a Nigerian living in Nigeria landing a job is one of hardest jobs
But then starting a business is no easier, you need the capital and it sure doesn't fall from the skies.
In the end we will most likely decide to work for a while to raise the capital for a business. But very few ever start that business, a lot of us will get comfortable with the job over the years, the security, the guaranteed pay etc.

You can build a staggering career from a job no doubt but if you've always felt that entrepreneurial hunger, nothing beats the feeling of having created something.
Your business is your progeny, you birthed it, it's your idea and a glaring testament to your abilities.

So how do you stay focused while on a job if business is your dream?

Start small! 'do not despise little beginnings' you don't have to wait for when you are ready, that time may never come. There'll always be excuses don't wait for when you can start importing in containers. You can start a business today, thankfully there are websites like gotahia.com that will ease your journey.

You can sit at home decide on the products you want to deal on, search and get contacts of suppliers to work with and get your business up and running with Gotahia.com. If your capital is low you have the option to work with these importers, distributors and even manufacturers to sell their goods. This is an ideal platform for someone who wants to start or go into a new product line as the customer support is superb. Gotahia practically works with you to ensure you make sales when you buy from suppliers there.

This will help you transition into your dream business gradually and with minimal risk.

Business is not for everyone, also white collar jobs..... Know your calling. Above all, be an investor wether u are salary earner or a business person.

Business especially if it is a business that is very profit able , a business that pays in dollars is the best kind of business one can ever invest in this country .

In a country like Nigeria both Job and business are good but ensure the business is either a high value one or a dollar investment , having a business that ohs in dollars is the biggest flex .. one of the best way of investing in dollars is via blogging . If you have the financial ability , invest in blogging now that is one the easiest way to be sure you not solely depending on Naira . As at 2017 $1 was around 320 - 370 now $1 is 550 - 570 , for someone that had a blog in 2017 , 2020 he would be more financially stable because he has means of dollars earning ..

Both have pro's and cons

Long term goal should be comfort in old age.

Whatever you're doing make sure you're building towards that

Don't bring children into an economy that probably would be worse than you grew up with and hope they would be your retirement plan.
