BigIyanga:I no need reveal myself to you. I don't need to motivate anybody. And it wasn't acquired over a crash course video. Just know am board certified to carry out my trade in any part of the world I so choose. And it costs money,grey matter and hardwork with a little bit of luck to get to that stage. |

First of all let me start by saying that your post is a well written one (can't wait for the next). With that said, here's my question. What career advice would you give an accounting student (final year) who wants to leave the field in the near future? Do I start as an accountant (to gain experience) then transition later on or begin the process now? You mentioned one path (banking) but if you have more options, I will be more than grateful.

How did you sustain yourself financially? Pacesetter2021: |
Re: My Most Important Job At 5000naira/month by Nobody: 5:47am On Aug 19, 2023 |
EdgarAllan007: Thanks for your response. I went into accounting by mistake and would not call myself and original accounting career minded individual. I did sciences in high school and could not get into IT and engineering at the time so i settled for accounting. Its not bad to start with. If you are passionate about the course from the get go, you are more likely to succeed better than myself and it would not be fair for me to discourage you from your passion. As a final year student, you should try everything humanly possible to graduate with at least a 2.1. As an accountant, if you get into a multinational or good oil and gas company, you will make money. I got into banking along the way and I learned a lot. To suceed you need ideas and contact with different succesful people on a daily basis and in accounting, i stayed in the same office every day doing the same thing and meeting same people for more than 5 years. When i worked as an advisor in the bank, I got to meet tons of people who come to my office with business ideas looking for financing and i would meet with a minimum of 10 business individuals everyday for five years. Imagine listening to people some of who wired over $100,000 dollars daily and i got to stylishly ask them questions about their business. I also learned communication and presentation skills in the banking and the reason why i am successful today in my business is mostly because of my banking experience. I was able to see all the money flows not available to others and made good contact. Excuse me for a while, i will be right back. |

Never despise humble beginning However, value N5000 as at 2000 was quite a good beginner salary. Using current inflationary rate of 22%, N5,000 in 2000 is equal to N484,000 under time value of money 1 Like |

BigIyanga:Where did I tell you am an engineer. Like I said earlier I can practise my trade anywhere in the world just need to present myself at the consulate and the rest is history. If haven't gotten that stage you u won't understand and if you try to now cos am guessing you should be above 18yrs be prepared to give up 30 yrs to get to the peak..you can't steal it you can't forge it you can't act it our, you can't crash out and it's an act and science. If it's not there it's not there. |

Wow, this is a whole load of advice to unpack, thank you for the detailed response. From your reply, I noticed that the opportunity to meet different clients on a daily basis contributed immensely to your career success. I know that accounting is not really a "client-facing" profession but is there any career path in accounting where I get to meet new people regularly? Was thinking of public accounting but since you stated (in your initial post) that you worked at a small-sized audit firm am kinda confused, or should I be looking at the Big 4? Thanks in advance.

Blitzking:You’re still not getting it.. lol. A board-certified Physician in Naija is not board certified in Kenya let alone US/Canada. A board certified nurse in Naija is not board-certified in S/Africa. US/Canadian consulate no get time for you.. Even Davido/Wizkid/Burna with invaluable skills and globally sought after talents .. dont show up at consulate without prior arrangement. Abegi, take this ur Alomo-powered delusion back to ur bed. |

demanuel: Under financial mathematics We have compound interest which is basis for calculation of time value of money. That is to say that N5,000 in year 2000 is not same as N5,000 in 2023. Reason 1: is that what you can buy in year 2000 with 5k is not what you can use same 5k in 2023 to buy. The main factors that caused such disparity of value of same amount at different timeframe are inflationary rate and interest rate. Solving for future value (FV) of single principal FV = P(1+r)^n Where P = 5000 which can be treated as principal r=22% which is current inflationary rate, however I use this rate which I shouldn't use; because inflationary rate for other years was lower than this current rate. I should use average rate but for simplicity purpose. Let me use this current rate, n = 23years ^ = raise to power Do the maths using Microsoft Excel, financial calculator, etc and your answer will be N484k 1 Like 1 Share |

BigIyanga: I have had to read most of your posts to understand why you left that comment on my thread. Idealism and realism really does alot of the explanation. My current reality was what I posted. I won't have to post my situation online if I had another option |
