ednut1: Felt a little bad with this comment from you, I mean I was asking advise from you. You’ve been there reason I’m asking. I’ve been to Reddit and saw people complaining a bit, I never said 60k was small so I don’t know how “I don’t have 100k in my account” came up. I only said don’t you think it is small and how much do people save from that, which you perfectly answered by mentioning it is a big man money in the UK and I now got to understand that, simple, but then your opinion anyway. 11 Likes |

lajid:its not that deep, na bants mixed with facts. According to the official documents from the tax body in UK, less than 9% of the population earned above 60k in 2019/2020 tax year. Dont let reddit people deceive you. https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/percentile-points-from-1-to-99-for-total-income-before-and-after-tax So using my friend as an example his 46k salary at a big four in midlands area of uk equals 34,528 a year after tax and 2,875 per month. Lets say he saves 30% of that amount ( i am able to save 35% to 45% of my net pay in Canada). That's about 9m naira when converted to Naira. For which job you wan save 9m in naira a year with 3 to 4 years experience asides international oil companies 11 Likes 3 Shares

lajid:saving depends on the person, the average citizen in those countries live pay check to pay check . If i go buy latest Benz on that salary vs someone who bought a 2016 car corolla for example who go save more. If i go on 3 holidays in a year vs the person who goes once. If i rent house in a luxury place vs renting in an above average one etc. if i dont cook atall vs someone who cooks. 12 Likes 2 Shares |

ahiboilandgas: First off - an Australian dollar is about 0.7 of a us dollar Secondly a large number of employers everywhere always prefer migrants because migrants will always do more work for less pay and benefits. Because migrants are coming from a different reality. 8 Likes 1 Share |

OP you have answered your question. The movement of migrant workers from under developed economies to developed ones is the cause of the wage downward spiral. The western countries are looking for cheap labour, the idea of these free scholarships are to ultimately get cheap labour from other countries, I pity the locals because in the long run they re the ones being short changed, you can now understand the hostility towards migrants from the original residents of these countries. 10 Likes |

ahiboilandgas:What's the essence of having money if you're not sure of getting home each day without a bullet in your chest? People are leaving Nigeria largely cos of the damning insecurity.

lajid: The money is only high when compared to the naira, its a function of the exchange rate, 35000 dollars or pounds per year in US or UK is a poor wage by their standards. What can you really accomplish with that in the midst of high living expenses? If you left Nigeria for good why are you talking of converting your foreign wages to naira? Why cant you invest over there and forget Nigeria papapata. 17 Likes 1 Share |

ahiboilandgas: Strike is an indication of freedom of expression. Strike is an indication that workers are free to unionize Strike is one of ways of asking for better work package to the authority Yes, Nigerians are moving to a country with freedom of expression they are leaving Nigeria where striking workers are vilified and threatened They are leaving a country where workers' union has been destroyed by the political class to a country where they have the right to unionize and ask for better benefits.
