How Do People Make It In Nigeria?? by Iamyemmie: 6:17pm On Dec 11, 2022
So was just thinking this evening like how do people do it?
With this 8to 5 job?
Because I see people buying houses and cars and stuffs,how una Dey do am?
Cos I work in Lagos and earn like 180k monthly
If I struggle and save up 100k monthly (highly unrealistic tho)
It’s gonna take 10months to save up 1million shocked
How many years is it gonna take to buy car,buy house and stuff?

How are people doing it out here buying 50m house and stuffs

There's a simple rule to making money "INVESTMENT " ! with 1 million naira capital , u can start up a side hustle that'll generate more income for you than 9- 5 u're doing .

i'll advise you invest in physical or tangible business . i'm not a fan of NFT , CRYPTO , FOREX etc . i'm not saying they don't work but they have high level of risk and you must calculate your risk too .

Nigeria has plenty problems. People are solving some of these problems and make money from it. Look for a problem to solve legitimately and solve it. Most of the commercial skyscrapers built in Lagos are from Legitimate incomes

It’s the risks that scares me when it comes to investing
Cos I can’t struggle to save up money and then it fails
I go too cry
But I get you tho
It’s 50/50

Bro, don't let the pressure weigh you down.

Invest or buy dollars to keep. That's your starting point.

And about the luxuries you see are mostly loans, fraud, rituals, politics, and so on. Few people make it legitimately in Nigeria

When I was working in the bank I also thought about life this way.

However,as i left,I saw a bigger world full of opportunities.

U need to save to invest before u can achieve anything concrete in this country.

If it can take u 12months to get 1million pls,u had better start.


If I can turn 300k from both I.T savings and Federal allowee to 80million in ten years,u can do it.

Don't look at people and don't be moved by what u hear but be disciplined with ur goals and ambition.

Remember that ur goals becomes ur compass which u can use to navigate the tides.

Finally,don't marry a liability...it would drain ur future and sap ur energy completely.
