money is not growing on a tree and you just have to pick it like apples, ohhh no, weather u are in usa ,uk,germany, it might seem the DREAMLAND for you, but let me tell you, for black afrikan people here in germany it is never easy,

even if you are myrried to a german, you get the lowest paid job  (if u get one) ,unemployment rate is very high, so the big bosses will rather hire a german man than a foreigner who barely speak the language.

not every nigerian brother is telling the truth back in his motherland how hard he has to struggle to make a living.most are ashamed of the way they live here.

I would not believe all you read here in this forum about the DREAMLAND, you will wake up and see the mess you are in when you wake up !

German Lady The west is way better than where we come from, and the way you are talking about germans and their racism. I don't think i would be going there anytime soon,  i guess i would spend my money in spain, Italy or France

I can only talk about germany since I live here ,but let me assure you it is not different in italy spain (just look at the new right now) or france,from what I know and read and see on tv.

I think a good place to be for nigerian people (in europe) is the uk,since you talk english and the language would be no barrier like in other non english speaking countries.

in the uk you can really spend your money,because the cost of living there is way higher than here .

I think France is pretty good too, i mean if you can overcome the language then you are set.

Abroad is the best place there are limos as long as stadiums, there are buildings that reach up to the sky and most of all not only is there stable electicity there is plus electicity, so when there is an outage it's taken care of by the magic of excess before you even sense it, and there are jobs everywhere it's heaven on earth, those of you in naija that can afford to come, come and stay, those of you who can't you must swim because it's worth it.

Just look at this scrape sky building and there are millions more of these all over oyibo land.

Those at home simply don't want to hear this, they'll tell you if you are there and surviving they will also survive. They are ready to travel to the west even without visa, they just want to get in. I hope people will begin to see how important it is to be legal here and that its not just that easy. I met a guy recently who was lamenting and regretting disposing off his properties and resigning from his job just to get here and just while we were talking about it his friend called and said at all cost he should just assist him to get in, this is somebody who is still regretting his action and they will not believe him.

Its suprising that up till now people still don't understand this 'living abroad' thing. The last time i was at home, i lost my luggage and had to go back to check at Airfrance office, there was this gentle guy who was sitting majestically on his table with computer and phone in front of him and was talking to someone on the phone to help him tell someone to get him a drink. This guy said to me 'aunty they said that Dublin is the in thing now' and that he wants to just go and leave there at all cost, i look at him and took my time to explain to him how it works, at the end of my sermon i realised i only wasted my time as this guy told me he doesnt mind whatever the situation will be.

@ayomifull -  Do you think that is a testament to how bad things are in Nigeria - that many are willing to get out regardless of the outcome?

That was very funny!I have learnt not to discourage people from coming here since I came in myself,Rather I encourage them to come but they should just make sure they come in legally Grin Grin

That is definitely one of the reasons. While you will see people that are making it and living well in Nigeria, a very large majority are not.

It is still good to leave the country. Not that you will/will not become a millionaire but my dear "YOU GO Learn"

But do not sell off all your belongings, trust me, you need back up all the time
